Re: Naruto 674 Discussion / 675 Predictions - 675 out at May 7th at the latest Semantics. My point was that Sakura's insane strength qualifies her as an exceptional taijutsu user.

Re: Naruto 674 Discussion / 675 Predictions - 675 out at May 7th at the latest Madara is weak against Senjutsu and Taijutsu users. I believe Madara will experience a whole new level of taijutsu when he goes against Sakura and her insane strength. I think Kakashi will get the Eternal...

Should we read into this chapter that Madara knows that the Juubi is weak against Senjutsu and that's why he had to delay Hashirama? If so, then what is Madara waiting for?

This plot hole really has little to do with the overall direction of the story. So I'm not all that choked up if Kishi doesn't pay proper attention to Naruto 'knowing whether Sasuke has the ability to extinguish a fire he started or not'. I liked that Sasuke is attempting to deal with...

This is obviously the beginning of the 'good guys' push into the battle. Up to this point, the Alliance has been mostly on the defensive, now they can start showing their strength. The ten-tails and Madara aren't done by a long shot and the 'bad guys' still have another push or three left in...

Great breakdown Black. I think only Hashirama will be able to join the fight. My only basis is that Kishi tends to be very straightforward when it comes to his foreshadowing. He doesn't waste panels or dialog to try and send you on a wild goose chase but lets you deceive yourself if you...

Great review Black! Is it just me or has anyone mentioned...If the death god released Orochimaru's arms and the four Hokages, then what happened to the other half of Kurama that was sealed as well? My thoughts... 1) It goes back to Kurama where he becomes one supercharged tailed beast OR...

Re: Naruto 618 Discussion / 619 Predictions The manga has always setup the idea that there was a way to reverse the effect of the Shiki Fuujin. The idea of separating Kurama's yin and yang chakra in itself suggested that both sides will be dealt with later in the manga otherwise why go...

Thanks for the review Black. I'm always interested by the varying translations of the manga. Your review calls the chapter 'Dance of the Ninjas' while naruto.wikia calls it 'The Invisible Dancers'. Both offer different visions of the same translation which makes me wonder if it changes the...

As always Black enjoy your reviews of the manga. I would like to see more introspection on the broader themes within the chapters. Kishi obviously has a message inside his chapters that he tries to convey to the reader. Would love to discuss some of these insights and what they mean as the...

I don't think 'that jutsu' can be the kyubi mode nine tails since Naruto would have no idea what that mode would mean. It would have to be a jutsu related to something he has already studied...most likely another more powerful take on the rasengan. Its interesting that we haven't heard...

I loved this chapter. Personally I think this storyline has to go down the path of Naruto creating a power that can take on the Juubi. The only question here is what would that be? From my perspective it would be one of three scenarios: 1) Naruto completes 'that jutsu' which he couldn't...

Re: Naruto 612 Discussion / 613 Predictions Wouldn't it be great if the genjutsu was already cast and this battle in reality is a figment of their imagination? If this was a battle with Itachi, would they already be caught in his genjutsu by now? If so, then why wouldn't they be instantly...

Welcome back Black...hope you had a great holiday. I too very much liked both chapters and I'm glad that Kishi figured out how to get the Juubi to appear without taking Kurama/Naruto in the process. Your next review, which will no doubt get into the return of Naruto's friends, will further...

As much as I would like to believe that Kishi dropped the ball, when he decided to make Tobi...Obito, I have to believe there's another side to this story that will explain the time discrepencies. Perhaps Obito being absorbed by a symbiote such as Zetsu which allowed it to absorb much of...
