Well, here's why i think there's too much going on:
Kishi has 3 different plots with one having several sub plots: Sasuke's deal, naruto's training, and the attack on konoha. The konoha attack can be broken down into several sub-plots:
-Kakashi's fight and then possible death.
-The interrogators trying to find the secret to Pain. Now broken into 2 groups, Ibiki + Assassins and then Shizune + Ino and Dad.
-Konohomaru's secret/not secret/who the hell knows
-Danzou's secret little uprising.
-Pain and Konan's brief but still at least 1 page interrogations
Occassional flash backs, glimpses of the fighting, etc.
The point is that Kishi has 20 pages to do all this. Now, he's got all this up in the air and going all at once and he has to fit SOMETHING into these pages. Which is why, I think, that so many of us were disappointed by this last chapter, instead of wrapping anything up or progressing any further, we got flashbacks and an additional sub-plot. So next week, we may find out about something we wanted to, like is Kakashi dead, what is danzou up to, etc.But it's likely he'll advance the Kono fight and only give us tiny tidbits of the rest.
Way too much going on, I like the elaborate plot but we need longer chapter then lol.
