Now today's chapter wasn't from the best but it did have some nice moments.
1. Naruto was a compete badass. It's nice to see him using his intelligence showing how mature he has become (up to a point =D)
2. Sasuke's facial expression was nice. It was the first time in a while that Sasuke acknowledged naruto's strength and even... his superiority? Combined also with the fact that he wanted to save him along with Juugo by using his snake, it really was a deja-vu of the battle between Naruto and Gaara all over again, where Sasuke volunteered to sacrifice himself to stall Gaara in order for Naruto to save Sakura and himslelf, only to be left astray by Naruto's sudden use of power.
3. I liked the fact that the second was the creator of shadow clone jutsu. It's funny though because both father and son took one of his creations and improved them making them their signature moves.
4. Tobirama's facial expression was priceless:leaf: They make the perfect combo with Naruto. The one moment he considers him dumb, then as clever as him asking him if he left anything just to get mad at him for his ignoranceXDXD
5. The end was touching, Minato crying over his son's development is not something we often come across .
1. In actuality there wasn't any actual development other than everyone getting saved because of Naruto's collaboration with his father.
2. Many pages were used to show Minato's thoughts about his son. Can't blame Kishi for desiring to do that, it had to be done at one point or another but that doesn't mean that it makes me happy that it was done now. It can't be helped.
3. Rock Lee and Tenten got some screen time!!!:vision::vision: No actually that wasn't bad, what is bad is that for once again everyone gets Naruto's chakra and gets saved. I understand that would only be saved because of him but seriously their continuous reference to his power makes it lame and to think that this is coming from a Naruto's fanboy!
4. I didn't really like how Sasuke at the beginning asked Naruto for what is the next move. I don't know it might be just me but it was like Sasuke suddenly lost all his leadership skills he had when he was along with Taka and was waiting to get saved, we have Sakura for that (I'm not a hater, I'm stating the facts).
Overall it was a fine chapter which would have been way better haven't it been for the waste of far too many pages about Minato's thoughts. As I previously said, it had to be done at one point so at least let's hope that the following chapters won't have so many emotional moments in order for the plot to actually have a development.
