A pretty good chapter and hopefully the conclusion to Kabuto's flashback.

Liked
- Seeing Kabuto and Orochimaru interact.
- Orochimaru's lab and the tubes filled with experiments.
- Kabuto going crazy when attacking Orochimaru.
- The cameo by Sasori, Juugo, Kimimaro, Sound Four, Suigetsu, and Karin.
- Seeing Kabuto inject himself with Orochimaru's remains.

Disliked
- Danzo plotting his death but apparently looking the other way when Orochimaru sends Kabuto back to the village.

I don't think it was just Oro's remains. That beaker was there when he first brought him to the lab, so there's probably several people whose blood was added to that thing.

Yeah, that's something I'd like to see clarified. I remember seeing some theories floating around before this chapter about Danzo and Orochimaru co-conspiring during Oro's invasion during the Chuunin exams, and I could def. see that being the case, but this chapter seems to put those theories to rest. Or maybe not. For all we know, Oro's story could be a lie, and he could've still been loyal to Danzo. This could've all been part of Danzo's master plan (whatever that may be -- honestly, I've no idea).

sometimes i think kishi names come up more often and his name becomes more popular because when people want to comment about the latest chapter,they will mention his name. quite different compared to others mangaka

Need a little more action I suppose but I do kinda like these flashbacks.. It is always good to understand the background of others. I wanna learn exactly what orichimaru is and how the heck he was born.. That's what really dese flashbacks are for.

All I can say is wow...that's all it took for kabuto to steal there skills...all that was needed was there blood.. Maybe other things but I wish kabuto was a good guy...
If he doesn't die fighting saskue and itachi I can see him gathering talented individuals to create a crazy team like oro did..he's already surpassed oro..he can only get better...
Kabuto had a sad life..

I've always disliked Kabuto... ok, so there were about five minutes during the Chuunin exams I could stomach him but that's about it. When we first find out he has added Oro DNA to himself and then ran off into the woods like a total nutcase, I was relieved. I was really happy because I thought that was the end of him. He was acting loony and took off, so I figured that he would have just remained bonkers, or the cells would take over his body, and we'd get Oro back. I despised the character to the point of making AMVs using "You have AIDS" from Family Guy, and "You're Pitiful" & "White and Nerdy" by Weird Al; oh and the A**hole Song by Dennis Leary.

So here it is that he is suddenly Trogdor the magnificent, and in some weird way that works for me.... because I didn't like him to begin with. By hating him so much it has added to the story now that he is a major villain. With that said, I don't care about his backstory, and even if I did we've wasted multiple issues on what could have been summed up in two pages. Besides the story didn't really tell us much more than we already knew.

The real problem with this is Kishi's story telling. He's got way too much going on that is integral to the plot, to just linger for weeks at a time on one person. If this were a movie, say Iron Man, and we were at the climax of the plot with Obediah and Tony fighting it out on the roof, and all of a sudden, they cut to Obediah's childhood, just to tell you what you already knew, plus one or two tidbits you didn't really care about, you'd probably be pissed. In fact it would ruin the movie.

Point is, considering we have a war, and three major character battles, there had better be a point to Kabuto's story. Besides, it's rather unnatural story telling. If I'm walking down the street and get into a fight I'm not going to be like "Time out. Before we proceed with the punching and kicking, I'm going to tell you what my childhood was like." That's crazy, and it would be even crazier if my opponent just stood around to listen instead of attacking me.

All I am really saying is that if the story has so many different things happening simultaneously, is this really the time to be dwelling over flashbacks and character details? By the time you are near the end of your plot you really should have had that hashed out already.

WHERE IS THE NEXT CHAPTER!!!!!

also kabuto is a great character. he has massive potential. i dont like what he is being build into. i think we needed another tobi/orochimaru. someone trying to destroy the world for the sake of it.
