Okay, a few things I would like to point out.
1. There is some bickering going on about weither or not naruto is/was in Gamabunta's mouth. While this is an interesting theory supported but the fact that when Gamabunta spat out the two bodies the naruto body didn't go *poof*, it also means that any body that mightve been hiding in Gamabunta's mouth is gone.
2. Naruto is fatigued because he uses natural chakra and his own chakra. This is emphasized when Pa says "Natural chakra increases his range of attack" Also, you'd get tired too if you just took out 4 people in short order.
3. Jiraya and Minato are stronger than Naruto. End of Story. Pain is not even close to full strength at the moment bcause he used Shinra Tensi (sp) and THEN had to fatigue himself even further by reviving the other bodies in order to stand a chance against Naruto. This means that if Pain had been full strength, aka if Naruto had been summoned BEFORE Konohagure had been destroyed, Naruto would be having a much more difficult time with Pein.
4. Some people are dissapointed by the Rasen Shuriken's return as a throwing weapon. Can you honestly say you didn't see this coming? You don't name some blahblah Shurkien and NOT be able to throw it. Major forshadowing on Kishi's part.
5. My prediction on what's going to happen next chapter: A lot of dialogue. We've seen a lot of fighting action and now we'll hear some talking. I still say Kakashi will stay dead and I think Tsunande will die. I personally think that Danzou said the "Well done Tsunande". The ANBU by her isn't involved. She got moved. And his hair isn't black, so he can't be Danzou.
4. The point was made that only the yang side of Kyuubi was sealed in naruto. I personally think this is why Ma and Pa cannot fuse with Naruto. The Kyuubi is unbalanced and balance I needed for Sage Mode.
5. While Naruto brining out the Kyuubi would be supported theory if the Key Frog's name is Bun (I don't think we were given his name) it would ruin the entire point that Naruto has been struggling to attain. He wants to become stronger WITHOUT relying on Kyuubi.
6. While Kishi did say Naruto will lean 3/4 of Minato's techniques, What if Rasengan, Oodoma Rasengan and Double Rasengan are the techniques? We already know Jiraya taught him Rasenagn and Oodoma Rasengan, so it would make some sense.
On a side note: I think that Madara/Tobi are somehow related to Obito. Why else would he only have one eye? If you look, when he reveals himself to Saskae (sp) he looks kind of mangled. Aslo Kakashi's Sharingan was in his left eye, Tobis Sharingan is in his right eye. Coincidece?
Feel free to comment.
