It's sad to see a manga that was decent before the timeskip turn to… whatever this is.
For some reason, I feel like Kishimoto will stir the pairing wank with next chapter, not sure why...

The only positived thing about part 2 was Sakura's growth and her fight against Sasori and Shikamaru vs Hidan.
However, it goes freaking downhill when introduces Sai who is absolutely irrelevant to the storyline and is only here to fuel Yaoi pairings.
Naruto was a good character until he starts gaying up for Sasuke.
Kakashi was a good character as well. I always loved his funny expressions and his book.
Rock Lee is a favourite of mine. He is the Anti Sasuke. Gai sensei was beyond awesome as well.
Shikamaru is just complete badass.
Itachi was god level badass. He was like the Mihawk of One Piece. Unlike his prick brother, he was calm, cool, mysterious, and very strong. It seems that Kishi was desperate to regain the attention to his manga.
Neiji was really cool as well. His fight against Naruto was one of the best moment of the series.
Anko was a hottie with some hot personality.
Orochimaru was very interesting villain despite his travestite stuff and Michael Jackson appearance. He had a purpose that any human being can relate to.
It is amazing how Kishi fucked all the good tools he had for part 2.

Her what now ?
She didn't even grow physically let alone as a character=/
Can I add to the record that I think Sakura has actually regressed as a character?
@Cyan:
That growth on her scalp that everyone insists is her forehead.
Ah. Thank you for clearing that up.
Seriously though, there's such a thing as making a girl that's relatively uncute (i.e. gritty). And then there's Sakura.

Well, if she was purposely made to be ugly/mannish it would be one thing, but there's no indication of this. She just… has a huge forehead and looks like a dude in over half her panels.
Her what now ?
Growth in the sense that she become stronger in terms of skills and she respected Naruto more instead of thinking about Sasuke non stop.
Can this be considered plagiarism?
:V
Art and visual designs aren't considered plagiarized if there at least 60% different than the original, but to determine if it's 60% or not is completely opinion so i don't know in this case

Actually, it's even worse when you think about it.
It's like Kishimoto saying "Look Sakura can be awesome too… just kidding!"
And I hate what Kishimoto did to Shikamaru.
The cake is a log.
Total mindfuck.
B-but if the cake is a log…then the log is a lie!! D8 IT CAN'T BE~! It's the only thing I was 100% positive it was true in Naruto! ;__;
In Naruto, everything is either an illusion or a log.
After Naruto, maybe will have a career selling logs on the Ren and Stimpy Show.

…Look, I tried alright?
If he managed his finances properly with the merchandise he would never need to work again.
With Kakuzu dead Kishi doesn't know how to manage his finances. Yes, he depends on his fictional characters for real life situations. Where's that Sasuke molesting Kishi to draw the manga picture?

Oh Kishi you and your big numbers

! 512 The truth behind Zetsu!
! Bee had chased after the shark carrying the scroll, but had failed to catch up with it.
Guy has collapsed. Naruto is worried, and there are dead sharks all around.
Guy faints in agony when Naruto touches him.
Yamato: It's the pain of the after-effects of using the eight gates.
Naruto quickly lets go, hurting Guy further.
Yamato: Carefully! Carefully!!
The information had gotten wet within the Mizurou no Jutsu (water prison), so making contact had to be delayed. Bee's friend writes the letter and sends out the bird, which flies off holding the letter.
Aoba: We have to move Naruto and Bee somewhere else!
Bee returns: It didn't work~ that rascal~♪
Naruto and Bee are to stay on this island, because it is not on any maps
This island is a moving fortress.
! The turtle that Guy kuchiyose-d is talking to a huge turtle
It is a giant turtle that was being kept by Kumogakure since a very long time ago (the island Naruto and Bee are on is on the turtle's back)
! Bee's friend: Furthermore, we've told Naruto about a survey on the ecology on this island. He would suspect something if we were to move him from the island.
! Kabutomaru: I will be the one to go to where the Kyuubi and Hachibi are. This is a good chance for you to come to trust me. Shodai Hokage is also one of the targets for my experiments. If that's no good, then Zetsu's body is fine too.
Madara: It seems you've been doing your homework.
Kabutomaru: According to Kisame's intel, the allied forces amount to 80,000 ninjas. But the vital part of our troops is this Zetsu, correct? With the research materials and knowledge that I've gathered, I can certainly make Zetsu even stronger. If you bring me there, that is.
Madara: If you come back with the Kyuubi, I'll give you one Zetsu. Follow me.
When he opens the door, Gedou Mazou is… Coming down the stairs in front of them.
Kabutomaru: This is
Madara: Thats right, this thing is alive.
Hashirama is coming out of the wall with a nume~ (TN: this is an SFX. can't think of an equivalent)
Madara: This is Shodai Hokage Senju Hashirama. Of course, it's nothing more than the cultivation of living cells I'd stolen from him. It doesn't have a consciousness.
! Allied troops headquarters. There are a ton of shinobi present.
Tsuchikage: To think that the fact that we had come here had been leaked...
Tsunade: What are we going to do about the island? Even though it's an island that can move locations, I can't relax about it
Raikage: It can't be seen in the clouds. The enemy won't be able to find it in the first place
Gaara: But Kisame must have indicated the location of the island on a map. Even if it moves, they will look everywhere to find it
! Kifune: We should send reinforcements. Just a few, as there would be no meaning to it should the enemy discover them because they move in a large group.
! Water is dripping... A cave?
Kabutomaru: This is amazing
Madara: But there is also a risk. In order to create something like this, I had to use the chakra from within Mazou, and I want to preserve that as much as possible. The further away the revival of the Juubi is, that just means I need to delay my plan further.
Kabutomaru: How many are there here?
Madara: Roughly 100,000. (They are all white Zetsus, all standing upright)
! Tsuchikage: I will go (as reinforcements)!!
Gaara stops him
Tsuchikage cannot do anything since his back is always hurting
Gaara says that it'll be faster if he travels via his sand.
! Kabutomaru: Well, you all just take your time
He boards one of Deidara's birds, Deidara is beside him.
! Right before the big battle. Kabuto draws near seeking power!!
The end.
It appears they are heading to where Bee and Naruto are. Deidara hasn't spoken yet.

Yay Zetsu is finally becoming relevant and not just being the battle commentator
Oh my… Sounds interesting
! D-Deidara??
It still feels like all those deaths were meaningless, although do we really need more clones? It's turning into Star Wars episode 2 at this rate lol.
Deidara vs Gaara again, take a guess who wins this time.

The only reason why gaara lost in the first place was because he had to protect his stupid village who were standing there doing nothing. Still, this would be a good fight.

Lol, yes and thank you.
So, plant guy is your local clone army?
:l
Insert Star wars 1-3 joke here
The only reason why gaara lost in the first place was because he had to protect his stupid village who were standing there doing nothing. Still, this would be a good fight.
Don't forget Deidara got cocky and came to the fight unprepared and with a minimum amount of clay. This should be a good fight though with no excuses on either side. I'm avoiding spoilers but I know this much. This is bad.
So Madara had his Jango Fett all this time.
But the more dissapointing thing is that Gaara will have his revenge on Deidara with the latter being, well, just a zombie.
ZETSUS. ZETSUS EVERYWHERE.
Well, this means I'll get my wish and I'll see Team 8 vs Zetsu. Only that it will be a clone.
Oh well…

Oh well…
16 chars of this team 8 vs Zetsu clone is what sounds awesome..minus the fact it's a clone
I may forgive Kishimoto for half the things he has done if he gives me a decent Team 8 vs Zetsu fight.
Sakura/Hinata/other women etc is able to beat a clone.
Kishi: A Zetsu clone only has 10% of the real body power lol
It will happen.

At least the clone will be male?
The spoiler looks really good.
Kind of surprised at Kishimotos sudden level of competence.
those zetsus are probably pacifista's

I had to search the meaning behind "Team 8".
Now, I could get behind this idea. If not for the doubts.

It's my favourite team. And they are the only team that didn't get a team fight in part 2.
I could only smile happily at the prospect of Kiba, Hinata and Shino doing a jam session with a mutated plant goo boy Zetsu. However, when my smile is at its widest, somebody reminds me, how much action did have Choji and Ino in their own team fight. And I burst like a bubble.

But Kiba, Shino and Hinata are not author's favourites. They won't be trolled to make one of them look good. Right?
Right? T__________T
If Kishimoto fucks up their team I'm gonna hunt him down. >(
I forgot about Team 8. Bugs, Byakugan, and the Beast.

Oh right, there was Shikamaru and his Asuma development. Since Kurenai won't die for the sake of development of some other people because she's busy being pregnant and all, it probably is certain that Team 8 will stand on equal ground.
That is, in Kishimoto's Character to Ignors list also known as All Time Fan Favorite List.
Just great. Naruto Part 2: Attack of the Clones.
And what's this about Team 8? I don't see any indication of them in the spoilers. I thought maybe Hinata and some of the other rookies might go to protect Naruto. But nope, apparently they're sending Gaara, one of the most powerful and authoritative ninjas in the Naruto world and this is the best thing he can do at the moment.
just my wishful thinking. I always wanted team 8 to face Zetsu. They are the only team that never fought an Akatsuki.

Kurenai is safe as long as she's still pregnant. Once the kid is out, she is doomed.

Hinata fought Pain.
….......................:ermm:
Hinata fought Pain.

She lasted 2 panels. that was not even a fight. That is the only thing she did in part 2 and likely to be the last. Females are so useless.

Yeah, I know. That's why I added the errm face at the end.

I meant as a team.
Shikamaru and his groupies Team 10 fought Hidan and Kakuzu, Team Gai fought Kisame.
Team 8… nothing :(
Team 8 helped them track stuff… and then did nothing... That's something right?

Guys, let's not kid ourselves. At the end of the day, none of the teams did jack. Sure, maybe some of them "fought" against a few Akatsukis as a team, but they still got their asses handed to them and were completely helpless for the most part.
