She's the most talented, most hardworking Kunoichi of the Rookie 9. When Sakura and Ino were busy wetting their pants over Sasuke, she was perfecting her accuracy and mastering semi level sealing techniques.
Basically she's a member of the best Genin team in Konoha but since she doesn't know the protagonist she gets limited screen time.
She's not actually part of the rookie 9
Now watch Gai's efforts have no actual lasting effect on the battle and be pointless in the end!
Really? No one's going to do it? Fine I'll do it.
Kabuto managed to put his snake into Sasuke before Orochimaru and pump… stuff went through the snake.THERE, IT'S DONE.
That's why Karin and Orochimaru were so disturbed to see Kabuto beat them to the punch.
Holy shit! are you saying ten ten might be useful for once?
I'm not going that far, but we saw her about 2 chapters ago when she found the gourd and basket that Madara threw away. The one thing she can use is any and all weapons.
@Fire Fist:
It was made clear he knew for a while now, especially since he knew he could blackmail Obito with Madara's body back when he was still pretending to be Madara.
yeah but he knew obito was a like him. all heartbroken and stuff.
i also wonder if kabuto will use edo for some help. unless theres no sacrifices around like a zetsu
l
its funny how the people who started the war are now helping to end it and saving their respective heroes. and how did kabuto know tobi was obito? did he google it?
Time to go back in time to chapter 490:
He clearly knew Tobi wasn't Madara…
I like bleach this week, pure because she is a creepy kid.
Yaaaas Yachiru slay the lessers.
Madara was afraid of Guy,so taijutsu>magical lineage techniques,op secret ninja techniues and magic sage weapons,and the only thing you need to learn taijutsu techniues is pure effort.Ninjas sure are smart teaching everybody ninjutsu all the time…..
Also Guy does what Madara,Kakashi and Gaara could not.
i'll agree with that +1 for creepy kids with imaginary friends. I even don't mind this ritter guys power, the explanation was atrocious but i got the gist of it. he probably shouldn't be using a melee weapon but w/e
Has Kubo ever made it clear what happens to souls eaten by hollows after they're purified? Because I don't remember him ever specifying…
Anyone, anyone??
V quincy power was interesting, but he kinda lost me with his 3 versions and et cetera. Attacking with instinct is a valid solution, but I don't see how having hollows with more swords can cut through someone who vanishes through existence.

Basically each of her personas had a wider range. That is that kind of power that only works when the other person doesn't really know the secret, but she just told him. Bleach logic, but that is usual by now.
Saber from Fate/Zero used a similar tactic, she embodied her sword with magic making her blade invincible and the only thing visible is a "small controlled tornado" in her hands, the thing is that that tornado is only part of the blade(but the opponent doesn't know), so the range is bigger.
I'm really happy with both Naruto and Bleach chapters. Not that they were good, majority of the problems the series have will certainly continue till the end of the series, so I don't wait for that to change, but Naruto had some Gai and Lee screen-time and in Bleach the little girl screen-time. With only that I'm happy enough.
i know but how. i know kabuto is a good spy tho
Because of the edo-tensei, you can't revive someone that it still is alive yet he revived madara so it would pretty obvious to him that Obito wasn't madara.
And terrible place that kishi put that snake thing on Kabuto it looked like other thing, but them again armadillo penis…

He's probably the best actual ninja in the series. My guess is that he put two and two together when he saw Obito and Kakashi's Mangekyo Sharingans.

No, the thing is how did Kabuto knew that Tobi was Obito? Not how he knew that Tobi wasn't Madara.
This week's Bleach was kind of okay.
Because we didn't have it focus on Byakuya, Ichigo or Ywhbababach and Kubo had to use some actual design here.
Why each naruto chapter contains 2-3 pages flashbacks consistently
No, the thing is how did Kabuto knew that Tobi was Obito? Not how he knew that Tobi wasn't Madara.
exactly
how does he know about some random no account gennin that happened to die in a world war where millions die, who left no big record in history, years before Kabuto was even born
I mean yes he is the ultimate spy/intelligence gatherer…. but even that has limits

Probably read Madara's diary which he found on his corpse."Dear diary,today I found a random kid crushed by a rock.I think I'll save him and brainwash him to behave like me."
This week's Bleach chapter was actually pretty funny. I don't know why Kubo took so long to explain a relatively simple ability, but Yachiru's immediate instinct being "punch that guy in the face" got a smile out of me, which is better than usual for Bleach's comedy.
So Kabuto finds himself and gets out of the loop.
Crayzaaay.
Guy is one of the few characters I actually care about anymore in Naruto, so I was ok with this chapter, kind of.
Yachiru's shikai seems to be a mix of Komamura's bankai and one of Sasori's puppets.
Kind of suits her though.
So assuming Yachiru's hollow-looking buddies are her Shikai, given she didn't actually say anything to release her sword, does that mean she already achieved her Bankai?
Previously I assumed her saying 'Come Out' was her chant for her Shikai release, but since the sword's effects were already in action (page 13/14) before her saying this I'm thinking maybe she's far more advanced in her training than I thought.

Bankais are rare
Everyone has one

Well to be fair she'd be like one of 3 non-captain ranked officers (4 if you include Ikkaku) to have achieved her Bankai release, if I'm not mistaken about the above query (I probably am but eh).
Edit: Wait does Shuhei Hisagi have his Bankai yet? I only counted Renji, Rukia and Ikkaku who officially have their Bankai.

Well Bankai used to be, or at least seemed to be for the very top, only a small handful of people had it, like 3 to 5 people or so.

To qualify as a captain you had to have mastered your Bankai lol. So that's 12 (woops totally forgot about Ken) off the bat already (as well as Gin, Tosen and Aizen).

Really? I don't remember that. But I'll bet Kubo doesn't either.
I just couldn't bring myself to read any of the Naruto chapter's first few pages. Only at the end, when Gai was doing something, I bothered to read the dialogue.
Who wants to bet that Gai will die for nothing next week?
Really? I don't remember that. But I'll bet Kubo doesn't either.
I believe the only exception was Kenpachi, because he killed the previous Kenpachi to gain his name and role. He didn't know his sword's name (well until recently right after he stabbed Unohana TT-TT ).
Kubo is terrible at explaining powers.
Ok so little creepy girl fights the Silence from Doctor Who in Bleach and Kabuto is a good guy again in Naruto… Oh and Gai is gonna die for nothing as well!
Bleach: V guy is creepy as all hell and definitely wins points for design….although I kinda got confused with the explanation of his powers. He can....change his shape, make his body fade, and end his conscious (from the minds of others) too?
Y'know, I actually liked the chapter. Yachiru getting to do something, and finally get to see her Shikai. Those um....Hollow things threw me off, but it's only fitting she operates on troll logic and instinct. Heh.
Naruto: Bored…..Kabuto shows up and heals Sasuke (remember when he was actually a threat, like Orochimaru?), blah blah....will Gai live or die?
If i remember correctly there were only two vice-captains who had achieved bankai and 12 captains who had a bankai as well. Gin never achieved bankai, during the hueco mundo thing all we ever got to see was his shikia. And really, when ever someone says that 12 of the 13 captains have achieved bankai, their not taking into consideration the fact the aizen never used his bankai and only ever used his shikia. For all we know all he ever knew was shikia and he used it to trick yamamoto into giving him the position of captain in the first place. And on another note, why do people call him kenpachi? His name is zaraki, kenpachi is a title, techniacally since the revalation that unohana was the previous kenpachi and was still alive up until the whole fight to the death to make you stronger thing, would it be unwise to refer to her as a kenpachi?

Aizen fooled them. They assumed he had a water based zanpakatou, including w.e he fooled them into thinking his bankai was.
Zaraki is not really his name. He called himself that based on the district on the slums he was in before he joined the Gotei 13, and Kenpachi is his title…and Unohana gave up her title as Kenpachi - a long time ago....
I just couldn't bring myself to read any of the Naruto chapter's first few pages. Only at the end, when Gai was doing something, I bothered to read the dialogue.
Guys, serious thing, I did the same. I just clicked next page untill something "okay" started happening. I just can't take more Talk no Jutsu, it's too hard.
What's with all these terrible villain motivations to change their lives for the better? And why do all the special techs have to be used in such an obviously pointless sacrifice until Sasuke and Naruto wake up?
Anyway Bleach was fun I guess, although none of the power explanations made sense.
I wish yachi did her powers way earlier. Makes no sense atm, a swords that always hits even if you dodge sounds cheap as hell too. The monsters design are cool though I'll give kubo that.
Yachiru doing something? I can't say I dislike that.
Yachiru… getting slashed... actually fighting... revealing her sword's power and turning the tables (for now)...
Is this for real? Is this actually happening? No bailouts? Yachiru FINALLY getting to do something?
Without having any prior context for this arc, I straight up love this individual chapter.
I didn't pay much mental note to most of the expositional speech bubbles because all we need to know is that the enemy is like a Silence.
@Devil:
Yachiru doing something? I can't say I dislike that.
Definitely. Go Yachiru, go!
Finally. Seeing Yachiru fighting is one of the highlights of this boring arc. And I find the design of the Stern Ritter V interesting.
Probably read Madara's diary which he found on his corpse."Dear diary,today I found a random kid crushed by a rock.I think I'll save him and brainwash him to behave like me."
I wonder if Madara ever thinks it's strange that the only person he could ever convince the moon eye plan was a good idea, was a 12 year old kid, who had been crushed under tons of rocks, left for dead, with no connection to anyone from the outside world, and was forced to listen to hours of him and his plant men brainwashing him to think it was a good idea…. and still took the shock of the death of someone he loved to even consider thinking... maybe I should go along with this plan
you know kind of one of those things, when everyone besides you disagrees with you.... maybe your wrong

really fun chapter for what it is from Kubo this week.. its been a very long time time seen i've been enjoying Bleach chapter.
the scene Yachiru got cuts by that quincy and she's clueless about it really resembled the scene when Kenpachi fighting Tosen where Kenpachi being cut by Tosen and there is nothing that he can do about it because of Tousen bankai that strip all of your senses. while this quincy make everything about him vanished.

Well, I don't think that in itself is necessarily an impetus to say that an idea is incorrect simply going on the wisdom of crowds.
On the other hand I'm sure Madara was just really lonely, and in order to make friends that weren't plant people, he just needed to brainwash a kid lol
But seriously imagine if Madara never ran into Obito, he'd just have been wasting away for years on end thinking up plans that would never come to fruition because the entire Uchiha clan would have been slaughtered or something anyway by Konoha or Itachi or someone.
Bleach actually felt alright
I know it's probably not genuinely good, but at least it provided some enjoyable things, a little girl being kinda badass and an old creepy dude?
Naruto was utter shit though, Kabuto's just another naruto villain with a clumsy handled redemption, part 2 thrives on that
Sooo. . .you can get out of the FINALEST FINAL Sharingan technique that puts you in an infinite loop for all eternity (Kind of a Dejavu, considering Itachi already did that with Orochimaru. . .) by. . .finding and accepting yourself? For a technique that took, what, 5 chapters to activate?, the way to get out of it is surprisingly fast, easy and fucking convenient for the good guys.
Seems like every fucking thing Itachi did in his entire life was fucking convenient and required some incredible feats of fortune telling, to be honest, but considering he has the sharingan, everything's fine, I guess?
Also, as expected, Gai's scene was poorly drawn and the conclusion (what did Madara do to plant Gai in the ground? What was that thingie with the black ball and the thunder god kunai then the black ball goes back and the kunai stays there and. . .hello, Kishi? You know how to stage a fucking action or what?), and next week 8 gates mode, more poorly drawn scenes, he """""""dies""""""" for nothing, and more padding for an extra week.
Enjoy!

That was actually the description of Izanami, absurd as it may be. You can just get out of it by accepting reality and yourself.
Unlike GER, Izanami offers a way out… and I guess is also completely ineffective against people who already accept reality and themselves??

"Sasuke is like a pure canvas and is completely white so he can go either way, but you know what? I'll just let him get manipulated by every thing out there instead of being a competent older brother.

Man I remember when we were all looking forward to the taijutsu fights because they were exciting and well choreographed.
And look at us now.
