hahha mut@t@ is in love with itachi lol, mayb u guys should get a room [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
But i am enjoying these flashbacks alot....it gives so much more depth to sasuke, emotionally towards sasuke i now feel alot of sympathy.
great! we are on topic now. i have this much to say: this chapter proves one thing, although people believe that sasuke is a genius that doesnt have to work hard he doesnt have the natural talent of his brother. instead he has to work hard for it. this is also something that we have seen often in sasukes character. the tree training, the fact that he spends most of his free time at home training and the training before the finals of the third part of the chuunin exam. once sasuke trains hard his talent is greater then what some expect. his gokakyuu no justu was at his fathers level (if not higher) after trainning. i think that itachi understands this and this is why we see his strange behavoir towards sasuke.
about the itachis sharingan. it seems that that itachi has reached a level of sharingan beyond the three dots that allows him to do something that we have yet to see. when i think of this i also remember that level two curse seal improved the abilities that kidoumaru and kimimaro used. imagine if sasuke could reach the level itachi is on...could the seal give him somethin beyond that?
the thing with sasuke's flashbacks involving itachi is that, we don't know if any of is true. itachi could've been genjutsu'ing sasuke everytime we've seen itachi activate his sharingan.
Actualy Mut@t@ has a few points, as much as I disklike sasuke, at this point his character has had significantly more of his background revealed, We know more about what naruto is doing, but we have no idea whom naruto really is. Sasuke at least is getting some character development, and his singular focus on itachi is being much better explained by the current storyline than it was previously.
Aside from that I have another concern - the anime has a few more episodes on the Tsunade storyline, and then the VERY brief hospital storyline which will pretty much just be Rock Lee and Guy doing flashbacks for 3 weeks in a row followed by Naruto and Sasuke's first little dust up. And then this story line will start.
So if the Anime catches up to the begining of the "Chase" storyline and we still don't know how it ends, do you think we should all go into the Anime forum and start a thread called "Manga readers unable to spoil, this darn story arc still isn't over" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
the anime will take a break or do another arc that dosen't appear in the manag just to pad it out so they can let the manag get ahead. But yeah we should start a thread like that pretty soon. But all in all we the manga reader's are in for an intresting ride.
Ah but you forget the animes plan to add a new character, therefore filler episodes might start happening after the current anime arc, so the manga should have time to finish the "Chase" arc before it starts up in the anime. Although, it makes you wonder just how many filler episodes they can come up with this character. It is a frightening thought indeed.Quote:

Either way, I think the rest of the Naruto/Sasuke battle will be fairly short once the flashback ends. I'm guessing after a little more fighting, Sasuke will go to Lvl 2 and kick the crap out of Naruto and leave.
Sasuke's a genius but no where his brother's level, because it took sasuke a quick time to learn the fire jutsu.
Mut@t@ does make an excellent point...but im not too sure if thats whats going on, although i wont rule it out as a possibility. noonan, what do you mean that we dont know anything about naruto. we know everything that we need to know. hes has noone and has been alone his whole life and we can pretty much assume how his life was like then. the only things that we dont know are things like who is family is, but that doesnt matter for the stories progression.
Although that's entirely possible, Itachi has very little motive to do something like that. Why would an evil genius try to make himself look good in front of his brother? Not like we can say he loves him, because he kills his own family in front of him later.Quote:

And if the anime catches up to the chase section before it's over, you could always pretend it's over and say something like "Yeah Sasuke kills Naruto and that's the end of the series." If enough people say it it might become believable [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Finally, some back-up. Without a good storyline, Naruto is shit, and Flashbacks are the way. Besides... that Sharigan is something to think about.
Also, Gaara is always calm when fighting, he just seems calmer because he doesn't talk to himself or his mother anymore, and he isn't a demon badger.
But Kimmi would've owned him. Because of his illness, he was most likely weak to start, and his fighting just went downhill from there.
i think you are forgetting that he had one of the demons in him (he doesnt have him anymore) but... gambuta (sp?) mentioned that it takes a lot of strength to withold the demon ... when he was fighting iwth gaara... besides that even when naruto had to summon into gambuta... it took a lot of strength... he had to use kyubbis chakara... im sure you guys will day he isnt stronger then kimmaro.. cause of just that but i dunno... gaara seemed like he was the shit. ..
edit: and i think he is the shit ... gaara > kimmaro... thanks!
Do you ever make a smart post on these forums?Quote:

Ok, first. If Kimmi didn't die when he did, Gaara and Lee would both be dead. If he lived for 5 seconds long, Gaara would a hole through his body. He couldn't fight at full strenght from the beginning of the fight, yet, still had both of them going the whole fight. You saw how it ended... he died right there, and was barely hanging on at that point, the only thing keeping him going was his free will.
I don't think highbass saw the understood that last chapter of the fight completely... or read the part where Gaara says they would've died had Kimimaro connected with his attack before he died.
i know wtf i read... he sucided with his last move that brings out all the bones out of his body... to do some dmg... so what? how does that make him stronger?
If kimimaro was not ill, he would have easily skewered both Garaa and Lee, they even admit defeat when all is said and done. So saying Garaa > Kimimaro equates you to either a major Garra fanboy who ignores the facts or ignorant to the story.Quote:

LOL, that might actually work, it would be cool for the story to revolve around someone else besides Naruto(maybe it can be Sakura(j/k))
few more episodes? more like 15ish or so, i mean you have the whole week before the fight, two big ass tsunade flashbacks, and the fight itself is long as hellQuote:

He wouldn't have "suicided" if he was ill, that technique shouldn't have killed him. Its just he was ill.Quote:

He lost because he was foolish enough to think he could beat someone while he was ill, its his own fault
True, but he served his purpose. Now Sasuke only has Naruto on him. If Kimmi didn't show up... Lee and Gaara would also be there.Quote:

I'm sorry dude, but it was totaly obvious he lost because he was ill. You want me to post the part on how he died? so you can see it with your own eyes.Quote:
