    Why do you all think Naruto is a dumbass? If anything, that was a great tactic, sneaking behind your enemy while he doesn't notice you. If it was anybody elses body, that Rasengan would have done some damage. It just sucks for Naruto that Tobi is like immortal or some crap. Even if it didn't work, they are still back to square 1 with the scenario still being Tobi is outnumbered 8-1.

    Anyways.... I don't want Jiraiya to die.

    Agreed. Tobi was seriously outnumbered. Kakashi was full of shit when he said that not attacking and just "observing" Tobi was a good idea. In fact, I bet it was a feint. He knows his teammates pretty well.

    Protip: When you have the advantage, USE IT. Especially if it doesn't cost you anything. The Naruto haters should read Clausewitz's "On War".

    Edit: Also, this chapter confirms why Kisame is my favorite Akatsuki member. Sure, others are more interesting plot-wise, but his politeness and strength are just too bad ass.

    Yeah what is up with the idiots calling Naruto dumb? There was nothing wrong in what Naruto did, and was probably the most ninja-esque thing we've seen this whole arc.

    Also, Tsunade betting against Jiraiya is obviously not a bad omen for Jiraiya. The bad omen was when Tsunade said Jiraiya wouldn't have to put up a front for her anymore. Naturally, anyone that Tsunade starts to like ends up dying.

    It's funny, because he basically still acts the same as he used to. He's always taken the initiative (though he's gotten better at being effective). The difference is that he's strong enough to back up the initiation of force.

    Because Assert, actions don't speak louder than words in this situation. And because Naruto is dumb. He uses rasengan as a bail out to everything. You can predict every move he'll ever do from now will have a 60% chance of clone + rasengan. It's lame. He's lame.

    I agree with Assertn. I didn't expect him to be able to sneak behind someone like that, and what's wrong with him using the rasengan? Its a very effective technique if used correctly. If he did that to a normal person, they'd be hurting. I mean if you have a killer technique, why not use it? (See Saito in Rurouni Kenshin)

    Problem is, he didn't "sneak" up behind him since Tobi was all ready for it.

    From a tactical point of view, there was nothing wrong with what Naruto did in my opinion.

    The only reason Tobi was "ready" for it was because he is suppose to be this "godly" ninja and there was no way Kishimito would let him take any damage that easily.
