    Yeah, because every Uchiha was obviously a godlike legendary S-rank ninja with their imba haxingan, right? Instant godmode to everyone who activates the sharingan, right?

    No.

    Besides, am I the only one who though SEPHIROTH about Madara's plan? Unity? It's called reunion, bitch. Then again, I haven't actually watched NGE.

    Will the Sharingan even work against someone who uses nature chakra?

    I figure it will be like the battle at tVotE. Able to see the nature user's physical movements but clueless to the movement of the chakra.

    For the record, the new chapter is up at BleachExile (it wasn't on OneManga earlier, but it should be coming out sooner or later).

    The chapter was astoundingly mediocre except for one thing. They built up the
    Kisame v Killer Bee fight
    then proceeded to give Kishimoto the week off. Bastard.

    For those of you who do follow the anime, all I have to say is that they're going balls out for the Jiraiya/Pain fight. It's amazing so far, and has my fanboy senses tingling.

    Yeah, is it me or has the animation gotten shitloads better too? I haven't bothered to watch the anime in ages, but after watching 131 if they keep the quality of battles up I'll be looking forward to Sasuke vs Itachi.

    Here's hoping Susanoo looks as badass in colour.

    Man I'm loving this Jiraiya/Pain fight...too bad it's about to end :(

    I expect the Pain/Konoha fight should be legendary.

    Seriously? I'm gonna bet that it'll be like Sakura vs. Sasori - drawn out with massive recaps and shit.

    And yeah, I watched the Jiraiya vs. Pain episodes. It was pretty cool, with Jiraiya's gradual further frog transformation and jazz. Man, he's actually pretty damn cool. Fanon kinda ruined him for me :/

    It's kinda nice looking forward to all the epic fighting scenes in the recent future for the anime.

    Umm...I have no idea if this is confirmed or not, but I'll post this anyway. For those too lazy to check out the sites. >_>



    spoiler:
    Killer Bee: “I’m gonna kill ya, gonna teach just how different we are when I beat’cha! Prepare yo’self, you big stupid mime! These are my rhymes!”
    Sub-chan’s bear(Pontai(?)) tries attacking Kisame.

    Sub-chan: “Pontai!”
    Kisame: “You’re a really reckless and talkative Jinchuuriki, aren’t you. But first, this strange little bear…”

    Pontai is about to swipe at him…
    Scene change
    Ao: “It doesn’t seem that this was a trap of Danzou’s. It’s more likely the Akatsuki’s ninjutsu.”
    He gets rid of Zetsu’s spore jutsu.
    Ao: “Maybe I/we should hurry…”
    Fuu: (Says something about Zetsu’s jutsu and how it preys on and transfers the vicitm’s chakra to the host)
    They/He is liberated from Zetsu’s jutsu too.
    Danzou: “So even you didn’t notice it then.”
    Torune: “So, what about the guy who has been tailing us for a while now?”
    Fuu: “He’s still at it… It’d be good if he fell into [our] trap though.”
    Torune: “Your trap is special. It’ll work”
    Danzou: “I don’t care if he lives or dies… But take out his right eye.”
    Fuu: “Wha-”

    Danzou told them to take Ao’s right eye because he wants the Byakugan he has.
    Fuu: “…I’m leaving my body to you in sec, Torune.”
    Just about then, Ao runs into the trap. A puppet attacks him with a sickle(?)
    Ao: “?!”
    The sickle are thrown at him, whom catches it and throws it back at the puppet, lodging it into it.
    Ao: “A booby trap… This time it must be Danzou’s.”
    There’s a note on the puppet’s forehead with the kanji for ‘curse’. The kanji disappears.
    Ao: “?!”
    Puppet: “What is going on? How can you see my body?!”
    Ao: “The mind-puppet switch curse seal technique… That’s the name of this jutsu.”
    Puppet: “Damn it! Is this a mind-switch that curses whoever attacks you?!”(Unsure)
    The puppet is actually Fuu.
    Looks like the mind of the puppet switched places.
    Torune: “What do we do after this?”
    Torune is carrying Fuu’s human body over his shoulder.
    Danzou: “I’ll tell you what my intentions are as soon as Fuu returns to his body.”

    Tsuchikage: “It’s because of Danzou’s recommendation that it’s come to this. And then there’s the question of whom we should leave the the high command of the Shinobi alliance to! Is there anyone qualified for the title of ‘Kage’? You were the one who said that the Gokage, including myself, are worthless, Mifune”
    Mifune: “I think Raikage-same should be it, though.”
    Raikage: “…”
    Tsuchikage: “But didn’t you said that he was unsuited since he lets him emotions rule him?”
    Mifune: “I have no doubt that now that he knows Hachibi is alive, he’s going be more composed than before. What I said earlier was me jumping to conclusions. Please forgive me. Moreover, everyone worked well together earlier and you made countermeasures quickly. And the key, to control the Bijuu Hachibi; Only Raikage-dono would be able to do that.”
    Tsuchikage: “Mizukage, Kazekage, is that fine with you?”
    Mizukage: “I can’t agree to it right now, but I have faith in Raikage-sama.”
    Gaara: “Let’s leave it to the Raikage”
    Raikage: “Oonoki of the Twin Ryou Scales, the only one who has experience fighting Uchiha Madara is you, so your intel will be vital. Cooperate with us.”(Take this line with some salt. I’m a bit unsure about it)
    Tsuchikage: “You’re such a guy with a commanding tone.”

    (Oonoki of the Twin Ryou Scales = Tsuchikage)
    Raikage: “I don’t need your faith, though… But at this rate, the Shinobi world itself will disappear. There is no other choice but to leave your own feelings out and cooperate!”
    Tsuchikage: “Well, better than losing this war… If the shinobi world were to disappear, then quarreling with you is out of the question… So I’ll cooperate. The Shinobi Alliance is formed!! First we must let the feudal lords know about this.”

    Meanwhile
    Naruto: “Wha..?! What did you just say, Sakura-chan?! I think I misheard you, say it again.”
    Sakura: “As I said, Naruto, I like/love you! Sasuke-kun doesn’t mean anything to me any more! I don’t know why I could love anyone like him… I’m confessing to you here, so listen to me.”
    Naruto: “But why…? How come…? If you’re joking, then this isn’t funny at all… Sakura-chan…. Just… What the hell happened[to you]…?”
    Sakura: “Nothing, really… I just opened my eyes… I don’t need to love someone who is a missing-nin and a criminal, do I? I’m not going to be a child forever. I’m going to look reality in the eye.”

    Sakura: “So, Naruto… I don’t need your promise any more. Won’t you stop chasing Sasuke…?”
    Yamato: “What is…”
    Kakashi stops him

    Naruto: “What happened[to you], Sakura-chan? Why did you so suddenly change your opinion of me…”
    Sakura: “I’m telling you, I don’t need it any more! I’ve fallen in love with you, with all my heart, that’s why.”
    Naruto recalls a scene where/when Sakura loved Sasuke.
    Sakura hugs Naruto.
    Kakashi: “Sakura, are you…”
    Sakura: “I’ve just grown apart from Sasuke-kun… But you’ve always been at my side, Naruto. You cheered me on… I’ve realized… how you really are. You’re a hero who protected the village. Everyone in the villages loves you now…. I’ve just become one of them… You were that mischievous dead-last… but little by little you’ve grown lovely and handsome… You were close to me so I saw it. But Sasuke-kun keeps committing crimes… It just breaks my heart… He’s just become someone distant to me.”
    Naruto: “…”

    Sakura: “But Naruto… When I can touch you like this… I feel at peace… I’m telling you this from the bottom of my heart…”
    Naruto: “Cut the bullshit, Sakura-chan… I told you I can’t laugh at a joke like that.”
    Sakura: “What’re you angry for…? I’ve just gotten over Sasuke-kun, that’s all. A woman’s heart is a strange thing, isn’t it.”(<--- Unsure about this line)
    Naruto: "I... I hate people who'd lie to themselves!"
    The end.
    The scene at the end looks kinda :awesome

    Edit:
    Thanks Bucks, but I think the color change kinda ruined the spoiler feature. My bad, sorry. >_>

    [_spoiler_][_/spoiler_]

    Minus the _

    Anyway. This weeks chapter is full of BS and I strongly advice, if you want to keep your sanity, avoid forums with NaruHina fans in them.

    No joke.

    I thought that last line was a soft rejection? Did I misread?

    No, but after 10 years of nothing, they are making a fuss about 'Manipulative Sakura' and how evil she is. And how her confession wasn't as sincere as Hinata's.

    Imo, they were both stupid as fuck. A firm reminder why Kishi sucks at romance.

    Right now, for me, Kishi just plain sucks. I could be convinced otherwise if he actually kills off Sasuke. >_>

    It's confirmed.

    Frankly, I'm happy that at least Kishimoto has decided to address their relationship at all, or relationships in general for that matter.

    Naruto calling bullshit on her manipulations is awesome.
