Sasuke is turning good after all!

[ajtpak]

So far, i'm glad he's not a whiny emo anymore and is actually doing something good for a change. Can't wait for the hokages to go into the battlefield. Maybe Minato will give naruto the other half of the chakra now?

YH I KNOW RIGHT .I can not wait to see what Naruto says to Sasuke when he comes and helps

 

[Kαmi]

I'm pretty happy with Sasuke's decision, it's about damn time!

the surprise was to know that Kagami is Shisui's father... now that i see it, they look alike...!!! it was a good chapter...

 

[Melanee]

I didn't like Orochimaru's look when he agreed to this though, he should be watched! Other than that, Sasuke is really gaining points in my book!

 

[Honest Criminal]

I'm so glad Sasuke's turning good! His reaction to Karin seemed as thought his old self is coming back and that's really great. *_*

 

[Hikari Uchiha Senju]

I'm so glad too!

 

[MrDuck]

Man I watched Naruto part 1 recently and it was so nostalgic to see Sasuke and Naruto as friends and working together in battle. I'm so thrilled that he's turning good again .

 

[Yatori]

I am happy too... demm sasuke y u be cool now

 

[Naruto.]

Madara and Obito are gonna be screwed badly. Well, it's a good thing that Sasuke finally changed. Itachi will be proud. And I wonder what Minato's gift will be to his son!

 

[Hoshi]

Damn devil Karin came back lol
Yeah, what a relief XD his good again :x3:

I know right? The war is gonna be a LOT more epic now. I'm betting Minato's gift to naruto will be the other half of the Kyuubi chakra he sealed in himself.

I thought it was Naruto's duty to change Sasuke T.T, so does it mean that they won't do a last fight to death? I can't believe that XD.

I was really hoping that this was going to be the answer. All of us had expected Sasuke to become the "big bad" at the end and have an epic final fight with Naruto. Maybe that will still happen, but Sasuke's character arc has been going in the other direction for a long time now. Ever since the fight with Danzo on the bridge it seemed like Sasuke was starting to crack a little bit. Sure he appeared to be very evil (even stabbing Karin in cold blood), but then he made a promise to Naruto not to kill anybody else from the leaf village and THEN after getting Itachi's eyes he seemed to turn on Obito by killing white Zetsu.

After meeting Edo Itachi and fighting Kabuto, it's been pretty clear to me that Sasuke was not heading down the darkest possible path anymore. He wanted revenge for Itachi, but he had already gotten most of that revenge by killing Danzo, so there wasn't a lot of motivation for him to keep fighting the Leaf village. With this last confirmation from Hashirama, (and just now, confirmation from Tobirama that he doesn't hate the Uchiha outright), Sasuke appears to want to help the allies in the war effort.

I think there are still some accounts that need to be settled. I think we are still going to see Sasuke need to make some changes and get some "revenge" against the village, though I don't think it will be bloody or violent. He will, however, need to find a way to elevate Itachi to be recognized as a hero, and get some kind of recompense for the massacre of the Uchiha. How he (and Naruto) will decide to do that is anybodys guess.

IF Sasuke returns to the battlefield in a time of desperate need and IF he plays a large role and shows himself to be a hero, I think Sasuke's crimes will be forgiven and he (and his clan) will be redeemed. If Sasuke demonstrates himself to be the most powerful person on the battlefield, I think it's very likely that he would be considered as a contender for Hokage after Tsunade dies (and I think she will die). The other 4 hokage will see Sasuke, forgive him, recognize him as a hero, and this will be the motivation for Sasuke to become a respected and beloved Hokage.

Naruto, if he keeps getting more powerful, is going to give up being Hokage, instead taking a larger role in promoting world peace and helping the Bijuu to be free and live their own lives.

I think we're in store for a few very awesome new chapters in the months ahead.

I realized Sasuke had finally turned good again when he smiled! I can't remember seeing that, plus when he apologized to Karin. Definitely good development in this chapter

Maybe there will be a final battle but without deaths, between friends XD, and END

 

[Great Sage of Uchiha]

Disregarding the fact that all his character development up until now was completely destroyed and rewritten into something ridiculous with a single panel... yes, I suppose it's good we're finally getting the story along.

Wrong everything his character development did up until know , only further proves how much Sasuke has grown up or do you except people to act the same. Even orochimaru stated a couple of chapters back that sasuke has changed in a good way , every time he was acting all cold hearted a psycho he was being Manipulated by Itachi, Orochimaru and Obito .
so what you said was completely false

 

[Kyuoken]

As much I like the chapter, I saw Sasuke turning good from a mile away *sigh* Yeah sure I haven't been on for a long time on these forums. But like I mentioned in the Orochimaru theory thread that, I had a feeling Kishimoto might be pulling off a Spiderman 3 moment with the boy and well I was right lol.
