Yeah the one-shot was just plain weird. I would have preferred something with the alternate-reality characters, not just some story about a bath house.

How so? The series has shown that Tobi can use Izanagi and can take quite a bit of damage without slowing down. We also saw that he could enter Konoha without anyone knowing about it. According to Itachi, he had been coming and going for some time. If he could enter Konoha to read the tablet and murder a bunch of Uchiha's, then he could have just as easily entered to grab baby Naruto, since at that point no one was even aware of his existences.

Konan was able to do so good because Tobi allowed her. He knew she had something planned and wanted to see what it was. And while Tobi isn't the strongest in direct combat, his abilities give him a huge edge. That's the thing. Had Tobi not left, what could Minato have possibly done to him when he had already employed his ace for relatively minor damage?

Relatively minor damage? Minato got a Rasengan on Tobi and canceled the contract with Kurama at the same time. If Minato wasn't distracted by Kurama attacking then Minato would have won against Tobi.
All Tobi has shown us is that he is a one trick pony with teleportation and phasing out of existence.
I'll add my 2 cents to the who the hell is Tobi theories.
I believe that Tobi is actually Shisui Uchiha.
Nice to see the color pages.
Other than that, it's a bunch of fighting. Nothing worth mentioning. This sort of thing is better seen animated, so yeah.
Though I do wonder why Kamui doesn't work on the statue.
Pissing me off here. Where's the Ten Tails, dammit?
Awful chapter is awful. Fighting scenes always suck in manga.
The fact that Tobi's mask cracked pretty much confirms two things: a) his face will be revealed soon, and b) even though Naruto, Kakashi and Guy weren't able to land any hits, Tobi is not invincible. Kakashi's Kamui was the most interesting moment of the chapter since it reinforces the fact that both he and Tobi have a similar technique. I wonder who Tobi is.![]()

Everyboy was kung fu fighting...ninja style and that was pretty much the whole chapter. I think it's kinda insteresting that we may possibly see Tobi's face before Madara is taken down. They'll probably be taken down together. Anyway it's weird but the blood coming out of the statue thingie's eyes creeped me out. I mean Naruto has had plenty of blood in it and I've always been okay with it. Heck seeing Sasuke and Itachi cry blood never made me twitch I enjoyed the chapters of them crying blood but that statue...ugh. It freaked Platinum fan out! Not enough to stop reading though, no way! I can't wait for the statue thingie to start fighting. I know it has a name but I just call it the statue. It's also cool to see Kakashi and Guy still able to keep up with the new generation. Yes their time as being Konoha's top dogs is slowly coming to a close but they ain't just going to roll over for them without one big final.
Pokemon Left version and Pokemon Right version. They are coming soon.
Ok so phasing out of attacks and having hax dojutsu's doesn't help him right?
The chapter was good with the action. Guy was the most awesome though, with just pure taijutsu. Overall a good chapter with action.
Predictions for future chapters:
Naruto will fail considering he was supposed to run out of chakra a long time ago. Cue false 10 tails and then the army appears. Then its 50,000 vs a false 10 tails. The end result will be Bee's capture and the army retreating with Naruto.Sakura should die during this
The 10 tails is unstable so Tobi extracts Bee for about 2 weeks while the others train. Meanwhile Sasuke and Oro find who they are looking for and more is revealed on what the hell is going on.
I dunno where Madara would fit into this though. Onoki sacrifices himself I would guess and manages to kill the alive again Madara.
Cue final battle with Naruto's huge Bijudama Rasengan winning over the 10 tails and Tobi with help from the army. <-> Sasuke vs Naruto happens. (Either Sasuke vs Naruto happens first or it will be Naruto vs Tobi and 10 tails)
End of Naruto. That should be it unless Kishi extends the series even more.
A chapter full of fighting. Simple but nice. It was pretty cool seeing Gai show some intelligences in a fight, and for Kakashi to not forget about the Gedo Mazo. I suspect the thing with Kamui is another red herring, though it does mean that Tobi wasn't just talking big before. But the real star was Tobi, who finally starting to show why he's the main villain. Never thought a fan would be such a good weapon. Anyway, Tobi keeping up with Gai, Naruto, and Kakashi all at once says quite a bit about his strength. Shame he's not using any other ninjutsu or abilities. Nice chapter.
A Rasengan that caused him to lose a single hand and releasing a beast that was taking all his power to control? The fact remains that Minato showed nothing to give him an actual win, apart from the Dead Demon seal and even that's questionable in the face of Izanagi's reset.
Tobi is a one trick pony, but with a pretty haxed trick.

- Chaps. Okay...
- Guy's nunchucks. Haven't seen them in along time.
- Straight-up action scenes. Nice.
- So how did Tobi stop Kakashi? His own Sharingan?
- I figured Bee would have more of a role since he seems to be the strongest in his state. He vanished indeed.
- Still trying to steal Kurama?
- Overwhelming power is a bit too much of a compliment at this point. Tobi just dodges really well.
Good chapter; can't complain. This is more action in a single chapter than any other fight in the war that I can remember, at least. I want to see Tobi actually attack though. Kishi is surprisingly holding back on his Sharingan and Rinnegan jutsu.
