    New chapter is up on managastream.

    We had talk but we also had action. I thought it was one of better chapters we have seen in a while.

    It was so awesome, although I was hoping Bee would fight Nagato and Itachi would fight Naruto.

    It was pretty epic. I can't wait for next week chapter, we will finally find out what with this crow Itachi "feed" Naruto. I also liked the suprise of Itachi, on news that Naruto controls Kyubi.

    Epic. Completely epic. And we're going to find out what was up with the crow.

    This is probably the first chapter in a long time that I was completely satisfied with. I'm delighted that he didn't screw up the epic meeting of Naruto and Nagato/Itachi (at least not yet)

    Looks like Itachi's crow is some kind of automatic counter to the MS like most of us assumed it was.

    Maybe, maybe not. Still, have to admit that having that thing come up your throat every time an Uchiha pops and MS is not going to be fun.

    Anyone else enjoy the fact that Bee is holding his own against Itachi just fine? In all honesty, Bee has got to be an Uchiha's nightmare as a shinobi. It's no wonder he curbstomped Sasuke so easily.

    Kabuto, plotting in the background hoping to see Madara expression <ROFL>. Anybody else see similarities between him and Gin from Bleach? He will betray Madara in the end I am 100 % sure of it. Anybody show the difference in sharingans design ? Itachi's and also Sasuke's (first seeing Madara after battle with Itachi), takes form with 3 ends and the one in crow with four. Maybe it's some uber technique sealed like with Sasuke, that combined with "Senju" blood in Naruto making in whole new level? Like Danzo's mokuton lengthening his use of Izanagi.

    See, that's the thing with character progression: It's fine when it's with characters we actually give a shit about, doubly so if it's central ones. Now, combine that with great plot progression and you have the recipe for awesome.

    tl;dr: This chapter was awesome.

    I think the most refreshing thing here is that finally other major characters are having their own, "oh shit, I didn't know that," moments and for once it's not just Naruto being jerked around.

    For the moment Bee is doing fine. But Itachi hasnt used his strongest techniques. If Itachi used his ms I doubt bee would be doing near as well. An undead Itachi who can literally keep going forever is pretty much invincible. When Itachi was alive he was invincible as long as he could maintain Susanoo. Now he can keep going as long as Kabuto wants him too, which means he can continuously use susanoo.

    If Hanzo can commit suicide so can Itachi.

    Hanzo didn't so much as commit suicide as he just wasn't as good as Mifune after a couple decades in the grave. Kabuto is forcing Itachi to use his powers, and since I don't think he can activate his abilities on his own I don't think he will be using Amaterasu on himself or anything.

    Also, the right eye is the eye that releases Amaterasu, hopefully some burninating will happen next chapter. And I'd like to say that this is what the entire finale should be, epic fights and revelations, not introducing yet more side characters and following minor characters.

    Epic.

    I loved Nagato's suprise at the information about the coup, and Itachi still trying to silence Naruto about it.

    Can't wait to find out about the crow.

    Hanzo stabbed himself in the gut to release that poison into his system to give Mifune the precious time needed to slay him. That's suicide.

    Just sent the translation out.

    It's an epic chapter, folks. Even though there's a lot of Talk no Jutsu.

    Itachi <3

    If by 'it' you mean the raw, then it gets sent to me by the editor at my group. There was a retardedly inflamed outrage about Binktopia not publicly releasing the raws before the scans were done about a year or two ago.

    Needless to say, doing so would only bring greater risk for the raw provider, as he's (she's) quite illegally uploading the raws online nearly a week before the publishing date.

    I actually meant the english subs.

    Yeah, I can guess why the Raw is so protected, I remember it being that way with the anime of stuff my kid brother used to watch a few years back.
