Naruto: Post Timeskip Disscussion (Warning Intense Spoilers!)

[Ciccone]

Konan said that Amegakure would help atleast Naruto to take out akatsuki, it could be that she gave that information to Konaha.

Then the Alliance should have mentioned that instead of acting like they magically discovered Obito's weakness on their own. But then again this is Kishi we're talking about; he never gives female characters credit for anything.

Konan said that Amegakure would help atleast Naruto to take out akatsuki, it could be that she gave that information to Konaha.

But as far as we've seen, Kakashi and co weren't aware of that limit, and he would have been the one to know if anyone. A whole lot of focus went into them figuring out a different way to land a blow, which wouldn't make sense if they already knew how to overcome his ability.

Possibly, but that would have been impressive considering she died at the end of that battle. She would have had to sneak the info out before her death, similar to Jiraiya's intel about the nature of Pain. This is assuming she learned the time limit of Kamui during that battle.

[TsukiMirage]

Konan was aware of the time limit before her final battle. She had learnt it after years of observing Obito. So at the very least, she could have given it before her death. The problem is simply there's no indication of her doing so.

Hm... yeah, after rereading the chapter I guess that is the case.

[SharpedoX]

Anyone else excited about the current anime saga, Chikara? I think it has potential considering Hidan's back. Can't get enough of his personality. I wonder if Kakuzu's dialogue about him staying alive will change or will anyone make a direct reference to the fact of having already met him. I also wonder how will Naruto cope with Utakata's death and how he's a jinchuuriki. In a certain way, the anime still was a way to surprise us.

What ever happened to the kage did Tsunade ever heal them or what?

She probably did, but they won't arrive until the plot requires it. I just hope Tsunade survives after she finishes healing them; Katsuyu said she could repair Tsunade's body, so I hope she was successful. We still need to learn about Shikkotsu Forest and "Slug" Sage Mode anyway, so Tsunade shouldn't die yet.

[Platinum fan.]

We may not get a Slug Mode due to nobody important enough to actually use it. I'm sure Tsunade would have used it already if she had it.

Which is unfortunate to be honest... Because Kish really needs to make his main heroin a heroin again ^_^;

[justinjiaxinghu]

When will Sasuke show up? He just revived Orochimaru and that snake "brought" him somewhere...I think Naruto and his fellow shinobi need some backup when the Juubi reaches the "perfect" form :P

[TsukiMirage]

At best, Sasuke will appear when the Allied Forces are at their lowest. And given Kishi's habit of revealing surprising in the chapter after the New Year, we should have several chapters before the Juubi goes prefect.

Not sure why Sasuke would offer back up... He still wants to destroy Konoha

Last we saw, it appeared as if he had begun to reconsider that goal. At least, it seem as if he wanted more answers before going through with it.

Don't say that; we must ~believe~ that it'll be shown. Maybe Sakura will use it. I know it's a stretch, but I really want at least one female character to get some redemption. :x

Yeah, that's true. Do you guys think Orochimaru will help? He seems to start to..um...like Sasuke >.>

Maybe Tenten will bust it out to save the world. She was the original Tsunade fangirl. I always wondered why she never asked to be trained by Tsunade herself. Maybe it was the fact that she could train herself, I don't know. Anyway the Sage Modes are outclassed by Tailed Beast Modes anyway, but if we somehow do get a Slug Mode, I bet all the necessary training to obtain it will be done off panel and it will be introduced after Madara and Obito's battle unless Tsunade can somehow alter time. We know how sexist Naruto is though.

And for that question about Orochimaru helping. It would be extremely out of character for him to do that. There's not much he can do against Sharingan as we've seen over and over again. So unless he's somehow learned new jutsu's in limbo I don't see it. He's more then likely going to try and steal a Uchiha body at some point, my guess is it will be Madara.

Call it hax... but that Snake Sage Mode was capable of taking on two Susanoo (in perfect state, it was said to be as powerful as a Tail Beast)... one of them from an Eternal Mangekyō Sharigan user. Plus, Naruto can do certain things in Sage mode that he can't in Tailed Beast mode. I still say Sakura should be Slug mode if ever introduced...

You know what I find funny? The fact that Kishi says he sucks at romance, yet the whole reason the Naruto plot even exists is because of a romantic tension that ended in despair.

[Ciccone]

So the Juubi got unstuck. I'm not surprised; Madara and Obito didn't seem bothered when it got stuck in the first place, so it was only a matter of time before it happened. It seems that the Juubi's attacks can reach practically any location and it seems Shikaku and the others are dead, but at least there's a strategy in place for defeating the Juubi.

[Hihiroshi]

Wow the ten tails looks more horrendous than before ( actually prefer the first one now ) nice to know that it was only storing power for transformation last chapter when all the barrages of attack was happening last chapter. For those who wanted some death in the war...well here you go though poor Shikamaru and Ino they been having it rough recently.
