That exactly how I feel about Sasuke wanting to be Hokage and Tobi being reveal as Obito(dumb overrated ninja, make us think he was a true villian before seeing talkninjutsu with Kakashi).Sasuke decided that he wanted to become Hokage in one chapter, and that pretty much made the past 300-400 chapters useless. Naruto: I'll save you from darkness and bring you back to Konoha! No worries, Sasuke does that anyway.
i sooo agree with you.I liked the chapter....especially when the Team 7 acknowledged the sheer awesomeness of the first 4. People tend to forget how dead the alliance would have been without that barrier.
but love, the point of the yin seal is the diamond, without the diamond storing the chakra in it it wouldn't be possible, since is the seal itself. By using their chakra control and focusing on the seal they can store it, that's what Shizune meant. Every seal has a design to it, we have all seen alot of seals along the series to see this. The difference in the designs (besides of course the different uses they all have and represent), are that some look more complex looking than others. Take for example Minato's Hiraishin technique, is not the kunai that makes the technique work, but the seal that's on the kunai. Tsunade herself explained that the diamond is the point itself where the chakra is being store. When Tsunade is storing she has the diamond but when she releases the seal, it turns into an X shape like marking that goes from her face and little below. If Sakura has been storing chakra for 3 years the diamond should have appear looooong ago since it's the seal itself. Like I said before it feels more like that Kishi didn't know what else to do too power her up, I would have prefer if she had a technique to call her own and windblown us, but oh well. Also, right now, I believe Sakura hasn't release the seal completely but is using small amounts of it, cause if she did fully released it wouldn't she have that full on marking around her face and body?The chapter was a stepping stone for Sakura’s character development and her power-up was much needed.
@Anyone who questioned why she didn’t use this in her past battles:
The Infuin: Kai(Yin Seal: Release) takes a period of time to store the chakra within it in order to release it. The logic behind her not releasing it against Sasori was due to this seal’s requirement of charging chakra to a certain limit which seemingly was not reached at that time and this can be further alluded by Shizune’s quote.
So much for people who don’t even want to give Sakura’s character the benefit of the doubt as Hashirama’s quote raises her merits quite high.
Infinte Tsukuyomi. I brought it up, because if there was a chance it happened chances are team 7 could break out of it. Sasuke with his eyes, Naruto with the 9 tails, and Sakura getting that genjutsu power up that was foreshadowed in Part 1.sorry but what means IT?
You seriously didn't start connecting the dots when Tsunade took on Madara? She made a very long speech about how medic ninjas couldn't enter battle until they learned her technique. The same speech Kishi used 3 or 4 flashbacks with Sakura early in part 2.this could have been epic if sakura's upgrade was gradual or at best foreshadowed say ten chapters ago. seems the flashback with tsunade was kind of forced and random.
still delicious but kind of too cheesy. let's just be glad folks kishi is still entertaining us. =D
