It happened vs Itachi. When he tries to force out depleted chakra the flames appear and Oro breaks free.

He was much more depleted of chakra vs Itachi compared to deidara.

Plus this manga is riddled with rectons.

When was it stated that he needed CM active to draw chakra from oro?

When was it not. Orochimaru is sealed in that curse mark. For sasuke to actually use its power/chakra the curse mark has to be active.

Damn that is a good explanation lol. If he was out of chakra how could he do all that?

The Sharingan aside, Sasuke was completely out of chakra. There was absolutely no way he could have summoned Manda and place him under a genjutsu in Sasuke's condition.

He could do it because Sasuke has far superior Chakra control.

His amazing snake-based escape was Asspull, everything else was skill and natural type advantage.

The fight was great, one of the best in the manga but the ending to it was pure asspull

I was asked this question a couple of years ago and I said Sasuke prolly tapped into Orochimaru's chakra to summon Manda.

Retcons are usually a problem in this manga. Sasuke keeps Oro in check with his own chakra so when he pushes to make more and hes depleted then Oro can come out.

But you right though he wasnt as worn out against Deidara but if hes stated to be out of chakra then yes its an asspull. But only if he confirmed his reserves on his own. I think I believe him deactivated Sharingan to preserve chakra in the fight a little.

I think it was'nt asspull, cuz him summonung manda happened offscreen, so I'm pretty sure he'll try anything to save himself (meaning using curse mode chakra), against oro, sasuke was so eager to win, that he released oro entirely (cuz he knew he can't beat itachi with little curse mark chakra) and he already used CM chakra earlier on, so he might have been at his limit with CM chakra

A brilliant fight. funny the ones claiming asspull all have a retarded premise that he was out of chakra even though that is false.

-they would rely on deidaras statement even though sasuke said nothing and in the VIZ deidara doesnt even actually say sasuke was out of chakra, just that his chakra must have taken a hit.

-they say he deactivated his sharingan even though sasuke could have only done that to conserve chakra and put it on again when he needed it for manda.

-they say sasuke was struggling to move even though his body being affected physically doesnt mean he is out of chakra and he ran chidori down his body so that was partly a cause of it.

saying he didnt have chakra to summon manda is a baseless assumption when the premise leading to such statements is invalid.

This. Not to mention Sasuke was already dodging C2 shockwaves. The author prepared the intelligent readers for the big climax. Looks like not every one is intelligent enough to connect the dots.

Where does it state where his chakra was out? Also, love the "Itachi beat Deidara in a second," when Deidara trained his eye to counter Genjutsu after he fought with Itachi.

Him finding the chakra to summon manda isn't even the ass pull part.

The ass pull comes from him actually summoning him, reactivating his sharingan, Casting genjutsu on him and jumping in his mouth in time to save himself from the blast, Even though he was so close to deidara when the explosion went off

Yes. Massively so.

Both the part about him doing all of it in a second and the part of him finding chakra to do so after clearly collapsing on the ground due to his low reserves.

As for the Sharingan, the only hard facts we have on how far Sasuke can predict attacks is Naruto vs Sasuke in part 1. Sasuke was able to see Naruto's attacks with just enough time to react to them and that was only because of how much Naruto was projecting his attacks. Keep in mind that when Naruto was cloaked in the Kyuubi chakra Sasuke could not see Kurama's attacks - thus (essentially) an Atomic Bomb going off 5 feet away would absolutely be faster than Sasuke's Sharingan.

WRONG! Deidara said sasuke was out chakra. That never came from Sasuke mouth Deidara made an assumption and it was wrong. Dont believve go back and reread that chapter

exactly. i think we can safely scratch him being out of chakra as perpetuated nonsense that has no basis in the manga. anyone saying that is simply making a self made assertion
