hate it, all this waiting and all we get is this? he explained Izanami, fine, that's good, but is that all? really? talk about Izanami and Itachi saying he isn't perfect? Kabuto will escape next week, oh well

just 1 star from me

+ anyone else noticed those guys have KONOHA headbands and not SHINOBI headbands? O_O
Sasuke and Itachi aren't part of the Shinobi Alliance that's why they don't have "Shinobi" headbands

Since a few of us have said this (bold), I thought I'd clarify that it seems like Itachi pulled a "Kakashi" and copied the move Kabuto was just about to use. (Although I guess who could have already known the move as well, but I think the way Kishi drew it as well as Kabuto's reaction point towards copying)

Still cool though.
no dude, that suiton move didn't happen in the real world. it happen inside izanami, and we all know anything can happen inside a genjutsu.

so...no. technically, itachi doesn't have that move in his arsenal.

Re: Izanagi?

we cannot be sure about the truth...

we havent seen a pure uchiha using izanagi... just those, who arent uchihas originally... so we have to wait to see, what comes...:)
It can be safely assumed that one of the two is wrong about izanagi.....we just dont know who it is.....

I actually think this chapter was better than previous weeks, but still very little progression overall. Each week we get one little chunk revealed and have to wait a whole nother weak to get the next small part.

And Kishi's whole Izanami/ Izanagi explanation... well.... I think it was actually far too confusing and didn't make sense in all respects. Especially considering Kishi left out requiring senju DNA (at least for Izanagi)... its confusing and splitting everyone. NB seems more split than ever now....

Sasuke is going to kill Kabuto before edo can be released, to keep Itachi around (who will not be able to counter Sasuke now that he has lost one Sharingan).

So basically all the chapter consisted of was diagrams of Izanami, explanations and judgement on Itachi's character. It could have all been condensed but just a filler chapter it seems. Kabuto may actually be turned good through Izanami, but who knows what will happen once Itachi starts to break Edo Tensei.

Personally I think that there will be some twist to this. Idk, just wouldnt seem all to great to just halt the Edo Madara fight altogether as soon as his 25 Mokuton were about to whallop the Kages. Maybe the rest of the Edos will be broken, but Kabuto did mention that his jutsu was special probably hinting towards a twist for Edo Madara.

2/5 for me.

I am double speechless! I was trying to come up with a reply to animemomontherun's post but you beat me to the punch. Thank goodness because I don't think my response would have been as good.

Excellent analysis by both of you. Wholeheartedly agree. It's nice to see appreciation for this chapter and Kishi's work.
xd honestly, the way I see it, we shouldn't even be this ahead of the storyline, kishi is only getting paid for the books we buy at your local walmarts and such. And thee latest volume he released ends in
choji sprouting his butterfly wigs and planning to end the war.
there is so much I'm excited for in this series.

It was entertaining. I'm glad he explained Izanami, and that it's something you can spam.

However, I don't support this cliffhanger. We've had way too many recently.

Oh, also, Sasuke saying that Itachi was perfect? That's weird...I hope those two share a bro moment soon.

Also, do you think they will kill Kabuto? Itachi DID say that he wanted to Kabuto to learn his lesson "before dying"
finally someone with some sense, i agree with you 100%, i also think there will be a bro moment, i think itachi is going to cast a genjutsu on kabuto and release edo tensei and before itachi fades he will reveal to sasuke all his answers and probably end it with an ... I love you lol

then maybe sasuke will go after tobi with the alliance then take on naruto and die... i dunno but it will be epic

That was a bit text heavy for me, but i guess i liked it a little. Mainly because the end seems to hint Kabutos escape (or what?). But i just dont understand.
If the genjutsu was started when kabuto first hit the crow clone, why did Itachi bother asking Sasuke for help when he got sliced the **** over? Also i dont like where Kishi is going with Itachis character. Itachi says he failed a lot in his past but the reader of the manga has always seen him winning everything. Plotwise i think it would be best if Kabuto defeats Itachi which will lead to Sasuke going mad and defeating him in turn. That way he may awaken the rinnegan and match up with Naruto.
Itachi says he failed because he didn't accomplish what he wanted. Everyone praised Itachi to the sky and back because he was an Uchiha prodigy. Kishimoto has comfirmed that Itachi was rarely surprised by anything and was able to come up with plans for the things that did.

All Itachi's life, he wanted to do the right things, but he only depended on himself. He just admitted to Sasuke that he did not trust anyone to help him with all the things he suffered from. (the coup e'tat, massacre alternative, disease, etc.) It was his arrogance. He would stand up to his clansmen, when Sasuke came around, Itachi would beg for forgiveness. (Cowardice) When dealing with massacre, there may have been a way to prevent it, but he didn't even search for an alternative. He only made a choice between what his clan wanted versus what Danzo wanted, not forging his own path. (Cowardice) When dealing with Sasuke, Itachi didn't trust that Sasuke would become strong enough without his older brother's interference. (Arrogance)

During his battle with Naruto and Bee, Itachi gained a dose of Naruto. Itachi realized that he had to acknowledge his true self and accept it before he can help others. This is what he is trying to do for Kabuto. Itachi doesn't want another person (Sasuke) to make the same mistakes he did. I believe that through Kabuto, Itachi wants Sasuke to learn this same lesson.

Even though Itachi can pwn people on the battle field, he doesn't have the same awesomeness when it comes to other aspects of life.



There are some things about Itachi's and Madara's Edo Tensei that I'm unsure about.

First Itachi...Right now he is under a very strong jutsu-the Kotoamatsukami,which was able to break Kabuto's control.Now we've seen emotion break the Edo Tensei against the user's will.Shouldn't we use reverse logic that a person revived by Edo Tensei could stay "alive" against the user's will if there is an emotion strong enough to keep the soul in the world of living.Since the crow's kotoamatsukami gave Itachi an order that was the idea of his lifetime it should create an emotion strong enough to break the bond between the jutsu user and the soul.So the question is : Will Itachi stay "alive" after the end of Edo Tensei?

Second comes Madara.When he was summoned to the battlefield it was Mu who summoned him.He didn't say "Edo Tensei" ,but "Kuchiyose No Jutsu!".Edo Tensei is a type of Kuchiyose so it is possible that the performer of the Edo Tensei was Mu.Now if it was Mu what would happen when Edo Tensei ends?Mu will disappear.But he won't "die" he is actually dead.Will that be the way to keep Madara on the table or will that bring the end of all Edo Tensei? Or did Mu only bring the coffin to the battlefield and it was Kabuto who performed the Edo Tensei.If so did Kabuto do something about Madara's Edo Tensei,along with giving him Hashirama's DNA that would make it impossible to end the jutsu even by the caster? Or will Madara on his own be able to somehow break free from the justu? He IS one mighty shinobi.He has a huge amount of chakra,EMS,Rinnegan and alot of knowledge and understanding of jutsu.

Lets hear some predictions. :)

Not a fanboy.No flaming please.
I've been thinking the same thing. I have been having a sneaking suspicion that Kishimoto might pull a DBZ and truly bring back characters from the dead.

However, I had a feeling that Sasuke would awaken the Rinnegan (since Naruto has his new form) and use it to revive Itachi. I'm not sure how plausible that is since Nagato lost his life when he brought back all the ninja after his fight. Nagato had a little chakra left, so maybe that's why he died? (Any thoughts??)

I have a feeling that Madara will still be around. Naruto and Sasuke may tag team against him or something. Who knows? :shrug:

How the hell can all you guys be bitching about how the entire chapter was about explaining izanami, when what izanami does was like what everyone was looking forward to for this chapter. Sure the plot didn't progress much, but i wasnt expecting it to

I thought this was a great chapter. I think its necessary that Izanami was explained to its entirety, and it also obliterated all of the talk of it being unbeatable.

I also think it was nesissary for izanami and izanagi to be explained. Also, I found it rather significant that Itachi admits to not being perfect. I completly agree with GaaraXSakura4eva's post regarding that.
