Very nice.

But it really seems as tho i had it right before, they went so long without plot dev that they are cramming it all into such a short time...

Btw, pretty early release.

naruto finally knows about tobi and the fox
maybe they'll fight next

Interesting Naruto finally learns the truth I wonder how this is gonna effect him with the whole Sasuke thing and once he learns that Tobi is part of the Uchiha Clan

Knew Naruto had to utilise the Fox as one of his powers. Probably gonna develop something so that he can safely use the powers of the Fox without injuring himself etc.

hmm good chapter but it would have been something if the 4th could pass on his knowledge and power to naruto like itachi did with sasuke.
the story is coming along fine

Nice chapter, it's developing fast.

Naruto wasn't as shocked as I thought he would be when he found out that the 4th was his father. *o*

Now there's going to be another big years-taking arc dealing with Tobi, other obstacles along the way, and rebuilding konoha. And Sasuke's development on the other side. (that douche hasn't had panel-time for a while )

Anyways, let's hope Sakura doesn't jump in and gets hurt like Hinata (I don't believe she's dead... yet..) or else the 4th's effort in restoring the seal is all for nothing. That would seriously suck.

Is it just be or was that chapter really... iunno... dry... Like the 4th comes out and goes (in a nutshell) "I'm your father. Sorry I sealed the fox within you." and Naruto just accepts it, and every continues. I was expecting something dramatic... like some emotional breakdown... or maybe some exposure to who the mother is... or even some new power-ups. But we'll see what happens I guess... Maybe my expectation was too high.

So only half the chakra of Kyuubi is sealed within Naruto?! Where's the other half then?

Whatever the case the story moves on but leaves very little to make next week worth anything now...to me at least.

...well, he did hit the 4th, that's gotta count for something?

My hand of expectation between Naruto and Bleach is shifting one place to another, so Naruto currently takes that hand. But still the recent chapter of Bleach is getting somewhere...

________________

So true. I mean, one chapter he has no clue who his parents are, and the next he's easily acknowledging the Yondaime as being his father by calling him "dad" (it might just be the translation, though). Kishimoto could have had Naruto have a proper reaction instead of just suddenly shifting back to the fight since it would be understandable, but that could just be my thoughts.

As for the rest of the chapter: Naruto only has access to half of the kyuubi's chakra and he can already overpower Pein? What the hell is Madara capable of if he was able to control the kyuubi with all all of its chakra? Though I guess it can be attributed to Pein not being at full strength after pwning Konoha. I wonder if Minato stating that it would be last time he fixes the seal (how he fixed so easily with a flick of his wrist was pretty cool, imho) means it's the last time he intends to fixe it (implying Naruto learn to control the kyuubi) or the last time he can fix it (implying that once he Naruto goes complete nine-tails there's no going back). There's a lot of explaining that needs to happen, hopefully with another Minato appearance.

No indication that Naruto won't meet Yondy within his consciousness again, so I reckon Yondy will eventually explain other details to him later on in the manga. As far as emotional breakdowns are concerned... Naruto has grown a lot throughout the manga, so I don't think he would have broken down anyway. He seems more relieved to finally know who his father is, and maybe, eventually, who his mom is.

The other half of the Kyuubi's chakra was allowed to seep out and merge with Naruto's chakra. It was said by Jiraiya somewhere in the past chapters.

I have a feeling Naruto will learn some jutsus from Yondy. Or probably be given access to anything his father left behind, since now he knows that he is related to the 4th. If the 'interview' was to be believed, Naruto should be picking up some jutsus from Yondy.

the chapter was ok but everything that was revealed was already known to us. i was kinda hoping that the fourth would reveal a secret to how naruto could better control the fox's chakra like Killer Bee.

I'm loving the pace that Kishimoto has shown to us these recent chapters.

And wow, I'm getting more respect for Madara, if even Yondaime couldn't make a stop to his plans. Though Itachi did note that Madara was only a mere pathetic shell of his former self. I bet Madara is using Sasuke to regain his full power once again, and Naruto has to stop him before it comes to that.

And I trust Itachi way more than Madara.

Ah, Yondaime did say that "Madara was using Pain", which doesn't necessarily mean that he is stronger, but well this IS a Shounen manga.

We have to determine what Madara's goal is as well, and it's to regain his full power like I said earlier. The most touching moment of this chapter was how glad Naruto looked when he found out who his father was.

I'm feeling sorry for Pain, he'll get one hell of a beating. I wonder if it'll be the whole "He's-the-same-as-me" issue which is typical to the Naruto fights (read: Gaara, Sasuke, ... ). I don't think he'll actually kill Pain though, but I have the feeling Madara will somehow show up and strike the finishing blow, or maybe even Sasuke but he's getting hunted down by the Rock Ninja squad (I can't wait to see their skills).

Will Pain even prove himself to be a challenge? In the state that Nagato is in (blood everywhere), I'm not really confident in his abilities. I also wonder how Naruto is completely unharmed when having gone 8.5-tails just a second ago. It might have been his Sage powers that healed him, or maybe Minato had something to do with it...

There was indication that he wont reappear....Yondaime stored enough of his own chakra in naruto to reappear in his time of need. he pretty much said im not coming back when he was resealing naruto and he said that his chakra was disapating. meaning there's no more left to come back. so unless they find a time travel kit or naruto dies then we aint gonna see yondaime again. theres pretty easy ways of finding all the information out anyway.

Do you really think jiraiya died without telling tsuname everything.


if the writer had yondaime come back it would be way to over tacky. however i do agree that we need to know more about wots not being said.

wtf is sasuke doing and whos narutos mum? and y was naruto so easily accepting of the 4th being his father?? i mean i personally would have leapt around singing "Yay Yay Yay im famous and important." i suppose with everything thats been happening the best naruto's emotions could become is "oh....." he cant react now....he hasnt time
