Nothing much to say..... But that I was touched by this chapter. Seriously.
And it's about time they got back to this part of the story.

Well that was depressing.
I'm glad to see Iruka's still out there doing his thing though.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
so sad

man i havent felt this down about naruto since sandaime passed.
Well written...I actually felt sad. Also, at the end "I'm Jiraiya, you can give me a love letter later" was really funny. Also...little Oro was too cute ^^.
I was kinda hoping this would be a serious turning point in narutos behavior but iruka telling him not to change makes me fear a little lol. but a very sad chapter indeed. next chapter is called the key so we may get some info on what naruto will lear/how he will learn w/e he will learn.
Honestly, there is something very unsettling about Naruto just walking out fairly quietly. That scene established a great tone to the whole chapter and really made it stick. Hopefully in a few months I'll be able to look back and pinpoint that as the moment that Naruto matured for good and not just remember it as a brief character development that eventually disappeared.
I still can't understand what Sakura and Sai are doing loitering around the hokage's office all day...
Sakura has some excuses, being an apprentice of the 5th, but why is Sai there? and why does she tell them the crap about destiny's child?
but still, a moving chapter.

I don't think it'll end up mathmatical, i'm guessing it's more japanese language coding.
Dam i hated this chapter, I feel like such a looser getting so depressed over a manga
It sucks that Jiraya died but this is a great opportunity for some serious character development, i can only hope we'll se a more matured Naruto after this.
@DBZ - I don't really think there's any way for anyone on this side of the border to decipher that, I'm not even sure if the code breakers on Naruto can do it.

Um guys, I don't think this was as depressing as you guys make it out to be, it certainly wasn't to me. Anyway nothing happened in this chapter, I thought we would see some profound change in Naruto but Iruka just told him to be himself. Iruka looks awesome by the way I wish we would see him more. Anyway why is it that the first thing Naruto does is try to blame Tsuande for Jiraiya's death. What, does he not realize that Tsuanda knew Jiraiya much longer than he did and she was much closer to him. Or that maybe she would be feeling worse than he is because she of course would feel responsible, not to mention that now she has no one left, her family is dead and Oro, Jiraiya and Sarutobi are gone.
Btw I'm wondering what message Shikamaru has that is so important and doesn't that image of Jiraiya in his prime look alot like Minato.
Dreaming impossible dreams.
Sapphire is awesome!
I still think the number is the default gateway onto Pain's telepathic LAN.

Yeah and the third as a kid kind of looks like them too.
I thought this chapter would be lame since I knew nothing was going to happen but crying when I read the summary of it, but then I read the chapter and thought it wasn't too bad at conveying a sense of "waaa my teacher/father figure/brother figure is dead, imma go cry now." It doesn't deserve an award or anything, but it could have been a lot more lame.
I mean, if you'd watched your family tortued to death when you were seven you probably wouldn't be moved much by such a thing but I can see how more normal people would feel some empathy for Naruto and Tsunade.
Man, this Naruto putting his foot in his mouth "If he'd been the fifth, he would never have sent you on that mission." Doesn't even begin to know how fucked up a thing that is to say. :-(. Very sad chapter indeed, but looks like Naruto's not going to spend three chapters sulking, which I would have actually granted him this time around. That's a good thing. Also, it looks like with the deciphering of the code, we'll be jumping right into another action packed arc.
1) The leaf's action will be to find out what Pein is up to
2) The leaf will have to react to Naruto being a now active target of Akatsuki.
Sasuke taking on the leaf is going to have to wait till this Jinchuruki stuff is done.
:-(. Jiraiya and Itachi in so short a time span :-(.
Very much so, it looks like Jiraiya might be Naruto's grandfather after all.
"They call it 'The American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it" - George Carlin
This chapter makes me think that Naruto needs to reach a peak of being childish to move on and become more mature...
Nevertheless, reasonable chapter, I actually felt sad because of Jiraiya's death for a mom.
Good chapter, felt there was a nice change in art style with a lot of solid blacks/whites. And god I hope this is the maturity leap I was hoping we'd get from the time skip...
Although for some reason I couldn't shake the unnerving feeling this is one of those moments where the anime gets another chance to stop and stock up on fillers while they "decode" the message which they'll take because they love making fillers... If it ever gets this far in the story at this rate...
Respect the joindate, not the postcount ;P
I would have agreed with you for most of the chapter, but it was the last few pages with Tsunade coming to the realization of the death of her oldest friend that got to me.
I also thought it was weird that Naruto blamed her as well. That came out of nowhere and didn't seem really fitting for his character.
