    Not sure why people disliked this chapter at all. I would have liked to see "mom and dad" have some more tricks up thier sleeves (time will tell maybe?), but it was interesting to see the grandmother puppetize herself and also why Sasori looks like he hasn't aged at all.

    We dislike it either because we would rather see good drawing then a big shape wedged into the middle of a shot or we hate Sakura.. both are acceptable on this forum. I believe mom and dad were out of commision because the joins are well not joints anymore. No movement from them so I dont see why there would be anymore tricks up their sleeves (Unless chiyo-ba has a new move...UNCLOG JOINTs NO JUTSU.. but that would kinda suck).. Oh and he has not aged much because Naruto was lacking on the bishounen front so they needed another ^-^;

    Puppet jutsus are totally badass

    The thing i don't care much for this ep is that it pretty much puts the fight in the same position that it was in last week:
    Sasori bringing out a super crazy attack and Sakura and Chiyo attempting to resist it.

    This chapter was overall kinda hard for me to follow, either the drawing itself or the scanslation was just... eww. Everything seemed so jumbled and chaotic. I couldn't tell what was going on very well.

    This chapter was the least exciting since the fights started. I'm guessing Chiyo had some kind of magnetic device that attracted the iron sand toward her and then blocked it with the charka shield. Nevermind scratch out the magnetic device part because I just remember Sasori's mom blocked for Sakura. Kishimoto took away a lot of excitment cuz I was thinking this was gonna be one of the best chapters yet.

    finally read the chapter... i guess the sakura-haters are just bitching out of habit now more than anything else. granted, it was an unsatisfying chapter and i am still waiting to see what sakura can do besides punch things into pieces. on the other hand, i don't see anyone complaining about her just standing around and whining about how completely useless she is. because guess what? she's not useless anymore! boring, maybe, but not useless =P

    the pace at which this fight is goin is just taking far to long ....i wanna see some serious hand to hand combat,....not this puppet BS..sure you know kankuro doin it is pretty cool...he had his limits..but to have to sit through this chiyo ba and sasori crap just isn't exciting...its like OMG he has the worlds strongest puppet and she has his parents that are puppets....@,@ plz.....i wanna see something new the puppet fights just arn't exciting enough.


    now maybe this is all cause i just wanna see the naruto deidara fight...i really wanna see how far he has come along..so far all we have seen was how much sakura has progressed uber streangth and some medic skills that are damn impressive but not what we wanna see.....


    atm..if naruto is takin is what matters.how things progress is how much the anime will continue and progress or just flat out stop..


    atm..... i see naruto gettin kidnapped....but i don't see that happening... simply for the fact that would come to soon.

    Well, I was hoping that Chiyo had the puppets rigged with explosives, but I think people might find that a bit distasteful

    It would be nice if we saw some new jutsu's from sakura, but because she is a medical nin thoses skills are more likely to be defensive jutsus.

    Anyhow I'm enjoying the puppet fight between Chiyo and Sasori, even if has reverted back to a fight between Sakura and the third Kazekage.

    I see you becoming a highly respected scholar, but I don't see that happening.


    This chapter was really lame, by the way. This fight is easily the most boring in the manga's history.

    The entire ninja-puppet/chakra-thread idea was stupid when it was introduced through Kankuro. What made them think a battle between two other puppet-users would be a good idea?

    Ok, yesterday I read the shannaro release. Tt was a little better but only because the geometric figures actually became 3-d with a higher quality scan.. Though why anyone would fight with shapes like that is still beyond me..

    if sakura is rogue... would that make sasuke gambit? ... something just doesnt sound right about that. a side from the fact that saukra and rogue both have super strength there are no really parallels between the two. tsunade would be better comparision because their personalities are more similar (not to mention they both have big boobs), and it would make jiraiya gambit... and that sounds a little better.

    Just because there is a Rogue reference does not mean that somebody has to be Gambit.

    The comparison is in the artwork of Sakura in this arc and Rogue in the comic books. She punches the same way, has the glove thing going on, the way she pulls the glove up and her facial expression when getting ready for action, the super strength, and the fact that the only thing she ever seems to do is throw a big punch to smash something.

    Its almost as if Rogue was Kishi's inspiration for the new Sakura. A fan of the X-men comics would understand what I mean, but I don't expect somebody who only watched the cartoons or saw the movies to know.
    *looks up at the extensive collection of x-men tradebacks in my library* hmmm ... i guess those dont matter because apparently the only exposer to the x-men i've had for the past 10 years were the comics and cartoons.

    btw dude, i was only kidding about the whole gambit thing, have a little fun.

    The puppet jutsu is not all that bad, I like it, but this fight seems to be going down hill now.
    Sasori was badass in that Scorpion puppet. I think they broke it to early.

    i think that breaking the armor puppet set things straight because now he has a weakness they can manage to exploit.

    Its sad how sakura is being used for her Karate chop action... Press button located in the back of doll and bam.. she chops( on her case its strings but you get the point)

    Yeah, but breaking the puppet is not what I wanted, I liked the scorpion one, also, it's now lead them to the point of fighting Sandaime Kazekage, with his Iron Sand technique.

    i fail to see what makes that such a horrible concept. its more appopriate that sasori has ultra skill like the rest of the akatsuki : itahi: one hit kill sharingan, deidara: boom clay, kisame: chakra sapping sword, sasori: human puppets. but dont get me wrong... i liked the old armor. i think it was a more appropiate look for him. before he seemed older and wiser (espcially when he beat the shit out of kankurou) and he had a look on his face that made it seem like he was perpetually annoyed. now with that kid face without any emotions he just seems crazy.

    LOL about that..yah there was more to that thought ..but um somehow i left it out..thinking slower then i type ...um yah..ooops..as for the thought i forgot what it was..SOZ....(<-sorry)


    but yes the fighting is very slow..and very boring on the whole sakura saindaime kinda deal...not was i was hopin for with this fight.
