i liked the extra explanation on kabutos plans with the edo tensei.
shows there are many ways he can work the technique.
and hasnt summoned certain people for a very good reason.
maybe he has no access to something he needs.
what keeps making you guys think that he can summon ANYONE that has died?
certainly there are restrictions of some sort...but none of you know what they are, so dont even try to act like you know what it takes. acting as though he should be able to just edo tensei ANYONE ANYTIME ANYWHERE with absolutely nothing other than his desire to bring them there. thats so wrong i cant even begin...
the kages seemed pretty confident. that may change soon.
on that last page, the 1st and 2nd frame are awesome!!
the flying ninja art birds from sai, awesome!
and the huge sphere of what i assume to be some sort of viewing hole.
they will probably be able to monitor the entire conflict with that thing. SWEET!
I agree. Besides the sacrificied "freshly dead" bodies he needs to perform the technique itself, there has to be another type of requirement. And maybe that's what keeps him from summoning everyone he wants... Maybe he needs to go deep in the underworld and confront the souls there...or maybe he can only summon those who left unfinished business behind. I really don't know, but there has to be a requirement, a "gift" other than chakra or the sacrifice of another to be able to use edo tensie and summon someone. Every jutsu in naruto comes with a price. And the more powerfull the jutsu, the bigger the price.
As for the sphere, it seems to be something like the detection/barrier sphere that konoha uses in the village. Remember the pain arc when he arrived at the village? Seems to be the same tech.
[/SPOILER]
Kisame died around the time kabuto joined madara so kabuto wouldn't have his soul for edo tensei..as for jiraiya, its a possibility kabuto has his, but maybe hes saving him for back up..but theres a possibility that he doesn't...edo tensei's requirements of gathering the dead souls needs major clarification. I really Like how you think, great minds think alike. Knowing kabuto is controlling some strong shinobi's like Itachi and Nagato I really think they can find a way to break out of the jutsu..esp Nagato because of his rinnegan abilities. Gud post btw
Tks dude. It's like i said above, there has to be a requirement that we don't know about to summon a certain soul. And for some reason, he must not have it to summon kisame for example.
yo scorps!
i gave the chapter a 3, but it is a 5 for gaara's morale boosting speech.
....
scorps, join me in continuously "reading in between the lines"... this is manga world after all
Yo! Kabuto has got a devlish ability there. With that ability he could do almost anything we can imagine. The possibilities are imense. He has become a powerhouse.
The tech has holes. It has to have. All techniques have them. Clues for that come in form of questions:
Why, with all those powerfull ninja is he incapable of simply subdoing madara and get sasuke for himself? What's the ability that madara has that is effective against edotensei?
Why did he summon who he summoned? Maybe he's saving summon summonings for later in the battle or is he incapable of sumoning some? and why?
What are the limitations for the tech? For example, whats the time limit? Whats the soul limit? if the user dies (kabuto) does the tech really stand? do they keep on living?
Whats the requirements for the tech besides the sacrificied bodies?
Kabuto has limits...and they're somewhat conected to these questions. Answer them and you'll know exactly what is he capable of...
Another subject...I'm curious to see if kishi is going to do a series of predictable filler side battles or will he suprise us? For example, will dan fight tsunade or asuma shikamaru/ino/choiji/kurenai or will he mix the whole thing and make it random? For example, sakura vs chyo would be predictable....but why not sakura vs asuma? or neiji vs deidara? I'm curious about that...it would be nice to see a change, instead of the predictable battles.
Anyway...can tsunade make her boobs even larger!? They seem to grow with every chapter...and seem to have become very affected by gravity!!!! LOL
The actual five kages are very powerfull...if they take active part in the battle (gaara will at least) it's going to be sweet to watch. Tsunade will, however, be in the background saving everyone and being a medical nin and ultimatly sacrifice herself to save a lot of people (problably throught katsyu and her forbiden tech or even through the death reaper seal). Tchushikage will be a last resort, suporting the front lines from behind and will survive. Raikage will be fighting his way up to fight madara/kabuto (even if he kills himself doing so). Mizukage will try to find and kill sasuke but end up dieiing by his hands. Gaara will die in front of naruto in some last ultimate battle.
Yes, i know...i'm not in a good mood today so my predicitions are gloomy... lol
