The Hokage's sacrifice was more than just to a way to introduce Tsunade, he was old anyways, and the fight with Oro gave him a purposeful death. He died for the village just as the 4th had. Taking the arms was the best he could do, but if Oro got his arms back now, then I could consider it a lame sacrifice.
RE: significant plot twists that turn out pointless
I want to bring up a new one....
chapter 201 - page 08
Kimmimaro saying 'The reason I've yet to kill you is....' and then the wispering... which is not elaborated on. My ears perked up when I noticed him say this... but then nothing ever happened.
Tayuya is startled by what kimmimaro said... so I doubt the wisper was the next bubbles text (you still have a mission to accomplish by staying alive - not very startling)
The Oro arm thing also introduced Tsunada as a medical ninja which gave her a reason to be in the story.

well yeah, i wouldnt have even brought that up if he could never get his arms back.....but it seems like he can now.....which is why it'd be kinda pointless to me
Shin_naruto, didnt he end that sentence by saying that she still has a mission to accomplish? (aka. taking care of the genins)
RE: significant plot twists that turn out pointless
if you read the second part of my post...
'Tayuya is startled by what kimmimaro said... so I doubt the wisper was the next bubbles text
'you still have a mission to accomplish by staying alive'
hardly something for Tayuya to be startled with...
thats my thoughts at least...
RE: significant plot twists that turn out pointless
not necessarily......that sounds to me like another way of saying "if you fail this, then you're dead"
