    I love Kushina.
    The page with Minato holding her on his arms was awesome.

    And I kinda suspected Naruto got his speech from her...

    Haha, the Bloody Habanero... love it!

    Nice chapter. I hope we find out more about her "special" chakra.

    Holy crap, epic foreshadowing!

    There was actually a reason why the ninja looked like a fucking traffic cone?? Damn... hats off to Kishimoto, i'm impressed.

    Was I the only one creeped out by Naruto kind of hitting on his mom? And ginger Naruto? That would have looked odd.

    Her 'special' chakra has to be something pretty fierce if it was able to stop the Kyubi and hold him there long enough to have a nice little chat.

    Yellow and Red make Orange. Nicely played!

    I thought I was reading freaking Archie comics there for a while. And Little Minato is one cute kid. The earlier generations are totally way better than the later one. After the series is over, I hope Kishi writes a prequel starting with the first hokage when he was young masturbating on a treetop.

    You want to see the first hokage when he as young... masturbating on a treetop...

    This chapter made me as happy as Bleach made me rage, it actually drew tears. Happy chapter =^_^=
    When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills

    I really enjoyed that chapter for once. Naruto and his mom were very endearing. Got the nasty taste out of my mouth from the recent Bleach Chapter.

    Wow that was just adorable! That tomato head scene nearly killed me with laughter xD. This was a wonderful surprise of a chapter. Orange Hokage xD.

Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

    Naruto hugs Kuhina.
    The flashbacks always bug me, since I assume that most of the big ninjas, who were\are natural geniuses, got to skip through most school years and became genin\active ninja early on.
    I thought that Minato was the same, considering how young he became the hokage.

    I'm having trouble believing that they were just average joe's back when they were kids.


    still, good episode, despite the fact I have no idea what she's doing there.

    edit: the nine tails knows who she is... maybe there's another reason why Naruto was chosen to be the Jinchushindistrictshinkisjishiki.

    sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    Kushina said in the chapter that Minato used a bit of her chakra or something to seal the Kyuubi in Naruto, though it doesn't make sense how this bit of chakra can infuse all her memories, personality and everything. Same with Minato in Naruto. Oh well, go Shonen.

    Well they never said anything about Minato being an average joe while he was a kid, he just attended school just like everyone else. And seeing as he as a kid managed to track and rescue Kushina he was hardly an average joe even as a kid. I mean Sasuke and Neji who are usually called geniuses didn't skip either, don't remember if Itachi skipped though.

    Itachi graduated the Academy at 7, was a Chuunin at 10, and an ANBU captain at 13. It has never been revealed exactly how the Academy works but I suspect if you can pass the final test then they'll let you out as a genin no matter what age you are or how many years you've been in the Academy.

    Kishimoto did say Naruto failed the final exam 3 times... and conveniently he is the worst student? How that happen I have no idea.

    Kushina's extra long hair is awesome.

    Don't forget they also mentioned that while Itachi was growing up that there were alot of Wars/Conflicts (same for Kakashi too IIRC). Maybe when people can graduate depends on how badly they need shinobi to protect the village. For example in war time if you can past the test then you get sent to the field even if you haven't finished your studies, however when the village isn't at war there is a lot more barriers to graduating.
