Naruto is more popular here. The manga also sells better.

lol naruto has one chapter devoted to his attacks and probably won't be seen for a minute. Everyone can recieve some decent hype except Naruto who get's half fights and zetsu clones. while sasuke get's up close and personal with the kages.

Is that to say that letting Naruto go out on his own impulse is a good thing? Using your assets and resources is one thing when you are the head of an operation, so lets imagine you are at the seat of a scenario:
You are faced off with an opponent who's goal is to capture a certain person because it would let them extract the needed ingredient to unleash a weapon that would end the war and doom you to eternal slavery. This means the enemy has two important steps to their goal: Capture and Extract the substance from the person.
While the person is their ultimate goal, he is also among your most valuable assets. So the enemy's first step is to lure him out by overwhelming you. Any sensible leader would of course make use of this person, but also keep in mind that his capture equals guaranteed defeat. And suddenly you find out, that this person just impulsively left his hiding place and headed straight for the front.
In this case, the Alliance just said "meh", lets just use him. Completely ignoring any fact they were stressing by hiding him in the first place, they are just letting him go loose by first light of the second day in the conflict. I can understand that, but he's acting on his own accord, not close to any strategic value by a long shot.
What would you have done?If I were at the command, I would make use of him alright and keep him hidden whenever there were risks of his capture. Because his importance is severely underestimated by Kishi! And I would always keep an entourage capable of protecting him, never let him just run out on his own idea. Yeah, lets let the "king" on your resources ride out because he does not want to let any friends die, before anyone else has a chance to come out. Im sure nothing can go wrong that way. x)
UGh, just thinking how Kishi must have thought of these developments is mindboggling. The more I think about it, the less sense it makes.
They are going to lose the war anyways without Naruto help. You also have to consider Naruto is capable of defending himself. They would of had to let him go anyways because of what madara did. Who says Naruto will be alone? He going to have plenty of help on the battlefeild. (He going to eventually get captured through either way for the story.)
! It seems like Gaara is about to fight. Just like i predicted.

Naruto will get his time to shine don't worry about that. He looked badass last chapter, but i agree he will be side line just like i predicted. Everyone kept telling me he will make clones and kill everyone. Facepalm Naruto is not taking down the Kages with clones, infact Naruto might not even show up where Gaara is becuase Zetsu were not engage with Gaara team.

Trying to dodge something that's been magnetized to yourself? Uh…

finally gaara and oonoki vs the ex kages. i thought kishi would skip that too.
i just hope he doesn't screw up this, like kakashi's rampage -
God the art is devoid of passion.
It is hard to see Gaara badly drawn. When was the time when Gaara looked uber badass when he was facing Deidara ?
-
So Naruto de-zombiefied that magnet guy just by using rasengan, didn't you have to beat them by controlling the user to do so or by appealing to their soul or something.
-
What a boring chapter. We already knew those setups and that Naruto is now Ninjajesus, no use in repeating that.

@Oga:

He just disabled him, then the guys sealed him by mummifying him.

I guess he was just being naive about his friend's survival? I'm not quite sure I understood his logic myself.
I think once your magnetized you would have no choice but to block or run behind a wall…
Edit: The jump editors message killed me along with Gaara's expression though.
"Gaara explodes with emotion"
he has the most blank look on his face.

That was so quick that I could've read it while my Hot Pocket was in the microwave.

So is this anime show worth picking up from beginning to end?
-
No .

It's just something the Jump editors do. I swear they're trolling half the time when they do it.
"Will they survive?"
@Lil Kis: Not really no, there's an abundant amount of filler that even Narutards don't enjoy. I would just read the manga personally, or skip to the actually canon episodes if you love the series that much.

@Lil:

If you like Ninjas with orange jumpsuit then yes. lol Just watch a few and decide yourself.

It probably was, just seemed like it could could be a thinly veiled nod to Oda or something. I'm just thinking about it too much.

Exactly! This pretty much summarizes the whole chapter for me.
And by the way JuJu? Finally learn how to use the words 'though' and 'through'. Idiot.

Didn't Juju agree to be banned if Naruto didn't run out of chakra right away after the clone thing? Because he still looks fine to me

On one front, a whole day has passed, 50.000 plants and 40.000 humans has died and colour of piss was discussed.
Meanwhile, in the desert, nothing happened. No one made a move. Everything stands still.

I liked this chapter. On my simple scale of 1=unexciting, 2=okay, 3=exciting. I give it a 3. This chapter provided me with what I like in comics. new character designs ( http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546 ) action filled panels (http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/2 ) good drawings (http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/8 http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/11 ) ( http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/15 ) new powers (http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/10) cool explanations and uses of powers (http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/11
By the way I don't think there was any reference to "2 year time skip" by Kishimoto (http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/546/16) the mangareader.net version
Well time to read One Piece!(I try to read it second so Naruto doesn't sully the One Piece high)
-
This chapter was as Bee put it "Aight" some action scenes that were actually slightly, kind of, sorta, a bit exciting and minimal stupid moments. Still it can't be denied that this war isn't nearly as exciting or interesting as it should be given that it's the end of a long running extremely popular series.

Go read my post again, I said in a few chapters. I never thought Naruto would run out instantly. Naruto said himself he think he could last longer because of his large chakra.

Decent chapter, I guess. Nothing horrendously stupid, just the Kages fighting a bunch of other Kages who we don't really care about.
Passable Purple.

(Hee…hee I like talking about art) I think Kishimoto really is drawing lame characters since the time skip but the environments sometimes are nice. In the pics I chose the scale of the attacks are clearly shown (with nice clean lines) and the detail is great to convince a reader of the size of the attack. I don't know Monkey King, what's the problem with those pics. (oh I like mangastreams page 15 it's cleaned nice http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/46677395/16) But yeah the characters are the stars of this manga and they are pretty bad. -

seriously dude? that one made me cringe. especially the first one. half assed pointillism, weird sand outline…..
-
It's like the sand-wave just started turning into clouds. And with the kages being so small, and the area being a generic as all hell Rocky Area (and not even that well drawn rocks at that), it is one lackluster spread. I didn't feel any impact whatsoever.
Mummykage and Gimli going all DBZ was cool I guess, but I don't get why it's "dust element" techniques.
-
Dr. Strangekage is my favorite.

Someone please explain this. None of his powers have to do with dust at all it seems.

Turns out against all of the logic of the first explanation of elemental attacks katon=creates fire, suton=creates water dust release creates DBZ fireballs that look like shapes…but they turn everything they hit INTO dust
-
My favorite is Muu.
-
Hm… Okay chapter, it was nothing special, but at least nothing too stupid.
I lkinda like that French Moustache Kage guy. -
Someone please explain this. None of his powers have to do with dust at all it seems.
I can't really explain it so here…
http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Dust
I believe the Dust Element is basically crushed earth and wind to utilize it. I still don't understand how he uses earth, wind, and fire (lolz) to create a molecular blasting technique though. Whatever science is involved in that (if any) is beyond me. Whatever sense is involved in that (if any) is also beyond me. It seems Kishi just threw elements together and said, "whatever".
–-----------------------------------------
I thought it was a pretty good chapter because I'm excited for the Kage battle. Kishi is looking to give Gaara another battle (in a long while) and that's always a plus. Something about Gaara's old sand wave brings more intensity to the panel.
! It's supposed to be bigger than that.
http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/7399/pic4w.jpg
Can't we just keep Gaara's father an evil bastard that put the village before his son? Kishi, don't give Gaara's father a sob story. Don't.Do.It.
-
Wow. That says it all doesn't it. Even sand looked better in part 1.
-
APforum where locals complain about sand… hmm.
-
Now this one could be one of the most epic fight of Naruto if it's not screwed up and end in 1 and a half chapter like all the other Edo tensei fight …lets cross our finger and hope this will be a good fight
-
A meh chapter, somewhat disappointing.
I miss the older Naruto though before the timeskip =| -
Clearly in the Naruto world the dust between your keyboard letters can atomize crap.
-
APforum where locals complain about sand… hmm.
You have to look deeper than that. It's an overall complaint of the art that has gone south and thus everything Kishi draws.
Including sand. Besides, it's one of Gaara's more awesome attacks.
-
I think Kishimoto looked at a book about Daoism, and thought the concepts of 5 elements and Yin-Yang cycle to be "wicked sick". Unfortunately, he didn't understand what he read in the book and then wrote Naruto with BS elemental combinations.
