Wow, this chapter and especially the reactions it got, have me loling about two opinions of yours:
Number 1: "OMG Kishi you're such a ****er for only giving Sasuke a short part in the chapter, Bla bla bla, Naruto giving Kurama's chakra away like an idiot, bla bla bla, now everybody is in bijuu mode, bla bla bla, Kishimoto is definitely losing it bla bla bla"
About this... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL x1000. Hahahahaha, serves you annoying Sasuke fanboys right. WTF man? The story's called "Naruto" for a reason. Go make doujinshis or FanFiction if you're in love with Sasuke. I like him too, and yes I want to know WTF was he doing in Konoha and WTF is he gonna meet. But, DAMN, you guys really want his **** don't you? Shit!
Now, Naruto being an "idiot" for handing over his chakra... Well, yeah I didn't personally consider it as the best thing to do. But he's a nice guy, so I don't mind. Yeah, nice guy. "Oh, yeah, I see you guys wanna fight as well. Here, have some chakra, no seriously, I feel ya." What's wrong with that? Boring? Yeah it is, but so what? At least HE is a nice guy, unilke ANOTHER. I was personally waiting for Shikamaru's and Ino's deeper thoughts about their fathers. It's war, I know, but it does feel nice to know that Kishi cared for those human feelings. Same goes for Lee and the rest of his team... Now that I think about it, I wonder if Lee ever managed to fulfill his dream of defeating Neji? Maybe he'll swap to Naruto in terms of "who's my rival" shit.
Everybody being in Bijuu mode... Uhhhhh.... NOPE. They're not. That's not the Bijuu Mode. Last I checked, Bijuu Mode was Naruto's, you know, with his blazing, Sage of Six Paths-ish robe and shit. No, what they have is an imitation of a Jinchuuriki's Chakra Mantle. And, well, that's not so weird. Do the brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku ring a bell? DUH! Come on, pay more attention to the Manga.
Kishimoto losing it? LOOOOOOOL x1000, okay you guys have guts. I give you that. Not being a Mangaka, not being even Japanese and not knowing shit about how it is to BE a Mangaka and especially a Weekly Shonen Jump's Mangaka, and still daring to say the author of a series you're following is "losing it". Well, gee. He should be ashamed, I guess, in front of such gods of Manga skills

(yes, that is sarcarsm). You want a series that ends well, and gives you a sensation of plentiness while at it, and yet you want the Author to give away details so easily? You guys are... A special kind of stupid, right? Be more strong willed, for ****'s sake. You like the story? Stick to it until the end and accept the author's decisions. There's no "if's". Resist the frustration of ignoring stuff, and bear with it until you actually know. I hate these kind of people the most... They like a series and keep bitching about the author. **** Logic. Hell, sometimes they even put hate on the series. **** Logic twofold!... Hate. So much hate.
I agree with this second Opinion I saw, though: "Ino still in love with Sasuke" Seriously? I mean, like, are you ****ing serious? For God's sake. See kids? If you want to make women look good, THAT is what you DO NOT do. WTF? Come on, she should have given up on him ages ago, I feel bad for Shikamaru or Chouji or whomever it is she's gonna end up with. Probably Chouji, though. ShikaTema is too strong. Manga wise. I wonder what is Kishimoto planning for her and Sakura... How are they really gonna get over this Sasuke douche? Let's see. For the moment, my respect towards females is saved by Hinata, Temari, Kushina, Tsunade, Mei Terumi and probably Kurenai. Oh, and Uzumaki Mito too. She's the coolest in my opinion. THE. COOLEST (and she was pretty hot when younger, too)... Kudos to Kishi for creating her, even though she only appeared shortly.
3. Lastly, I hope at least ONE of the things Sasuke ends up talking with "Orochivoldemort-Knows-Who" is the Uzumaki Clan. I personally would like to see a Naruto who's proud of his own Clan. I'm sick of Uchiha-lovers. Yes they are cool *sigh* I like them too, but there's no fun in the Uchihas being the only cool ones. And honestly, being cool is no excuse to be ****ed up in your mind... Whatever your reasons might be.
Chapter rating: 6,5 out of 10. It was good, but I was expecting a bit more after two weeks. I understand Kishi's position though. Must have a break to at least feel like you have a life.
