NaruSaku is dead since Sakura is dangerously in love with Sasuke.
SasuSaku is dead since Sasuke doesn't give a flip about Sakura's love.

Two pairings killed in one chapter.......Kishi you genius.

One pairing is still alive

Sakura wakes up in Kakashis arms

I hope he trolls everyone and have Naruto end up with Karin, I would have a huge grin on my face!

I want to say Karin is probably one Oro's weird experiment's, similar to Yamato, and she has some of Kushinas DNA implanted in her. I say this because of Oro saying the chain powers that Karin used was specifically Kushina's, and not just a Uzumaki thing.

However, I doubt we will get more then 3 more panels of Karin at this point, so we will never know.

Love how the Sage is just chilling not doing shit and having some banter with Kakashi (who was a non believer btw).
 
Tobirama's design is so good. Favorite Kage design by far.

Bringing this up randomly of course.

I just wanted to say that Sakura's parents are one of the worst things filler ever added to the series. They look so out of place and act completely insufferable.

They're technically in limbo since they haven't made an appearance in canon but their designs and names are.

What makes them so completely insufferable though? I thought they were alright.

That awful design makes them insufferable, you can sometimes tell when the anime team makes a filler character they tend to to look pretty shit, its like Kishimoto reversed engineered that shit in to canon.

I don't think any other canon character looks as ridiculously anime as those two. Thats why I don't like them, they're too anime, like me in 2007.

E: This just reminded me that the Sasuke version of Springtime of Youth is starting soon. Has a lot of potential.
 
Am I the only one also really annoyed that Sakura is going to miss Naruto pounding and manipulating her boy toy?

I hope the sage or kakashi wake her up and they all head over to the fight.

I think the less we see of Sakura the better, we don't need to see her standing there whining and crying during the fight.

I'm torn. There are only so many sasuke-kuns a man can handle but it really bugs me. Why does kishi make sakura keep missing naruto at his best. She couldn't see the pain fight,had to rely on hinata. She was knocked out during the orochimaru fight wasn't she in part 1. Or was that the gaara fight where naruto saved the day.

It seems like kishi goes out of his way to make her absent during naruto's best moments. Am I being tinfoil hattish here.

yeah, how cool would it be if he used Ice? He already had the light blue furry armor. Then he would had powerful water and wind techniques. Could had stay as an Edo and train Naruto in both Wind Style and how to be a Hokage

Tobirama is the best Kage. Keeps shit real.
Invented all the best Jutsu as well. Hell i'm surprised he doesn't have some sort of prototype Rasengan.

Plus this guy created basically every non blood related jutsu there is

When you're brother is basically a god you gotta be creative to not look like complete shit.

Brother creates gigantic wooden statue of death, you manipulate space and time and also resurrect the dead.

I kind of hate Kishimoto for retroactively marginalising Minato. The FTG at least should have been his own original jutsu, for real, and I'm convinced that's how it originally was because of his moniker, The Yellow Flash. Shieet.

Tobirama was credited with Edo Tensei and fairly recently Kage Bunshin, two of the best jutsu in the entire series. That should have been more than enough. Why couldn't Minato just have this one thing that is his own? Really annoying.

Meh it sucks but minato is still the man and everyone knows that. Naruto needs to pull a FTG against sasuke in this fight.

Also HASHIRAMAAAAA's wood style is still the coolest shit. What can't that guy do.

I actually legit like the New Naruto game.

I didn't like Storm 3 so much, because they fucked up the controls from Generations. But revolutions fixed a lot of things.

The Styles really help balance a lot of shit in the first games. (You either have to choose between being able to awaken, having an ultimate attack, or using your team mates and being able to seal your foes attacks and defensive options.)

They added a counter for about 15-25% of your meter you can while blocking use a counter to stun your foe for a pretty long time if they attack during the animation.

That and how the system changed as a whole and the new team stuff is really great, even if it's no story mode and just free mode. Though as an in between game, there is more stuff in it than Generations which is good.

He still has the greatest speed feats I suppose. Definitely up there. And his analytical and strategic prowess are second to none, so he's got that going for him,

Yeah a big part of the problem is that they are too wacky for no other reason then to be wacky.

That and they don't physically resemble their daughter at all. Other then her hair color Sakura looks fairly normal and down to earth. Her parents are anything but that.

Well it could be that Minato simply took the jutsu further then Tobirama did, or was simply more efficient at using it

I actually liked how Kishi set up Hashirama and Tobirama. One was the power house and the other was the inventive genius. I also loved how every jutsu Tobirama is credited for inventing is ideal for fighting the Sharingan, which fits Tobirama's character perfectly.

Minato died young before he had time to make his own jutsu(s). Though, I would say the Rasengan is good enough to make him a badass

I love all 4 Hokages so much.

Something that I have wondered is, if Minato didn't create FTG, how did he learn it? Tobirama was long dead before Minato was born. Was it in some scroll Minato found, like how Naruto learned Kage Bunshin?

of course, all the leafs techs were in that scroll. The filler kakashi anbu arc even had a mokuton scroll, it makes sense they write this stuff down.

Anyway, its not like minato didn't create the most popular jutsu used by everyone, it would have been cool to see him combine his nature element with rasengan when he was edo.

That seems the most likely explanation. Plus it can't be an easy tech for the average ninja to use since Minato taught his guards to use the move it takes all three of them together to pull it off and they can't use it nearly as fast as he can.

Tobirama might have invented the move but it was Minato who took it and made it his own by finding inventive new ways to use it.

To be fair, if Sakura parents weren't weird then she would be a a clone of her teacher. With nothing really unique about her character.

Everyone of the Leaf 12 have something that makes them stand out. Sakura always felt kind kind bland even after the time skip. Super strength isn't really something unique comparing to being able to turn giant or into a three headed wolf. I wished they gave her something else other than being really strong and some regeneration.

He may have learned it from hiruzen. Remember, Hiruzen supposedly knew every non-specialty jutsu the Leaf had to offer.

I don't see how her parents make her any less of a clone. They are about as relevant as dirt since they've only ever shown up in filler and barely at that. Condor the Ninja Ostrage has shown up more then them.

I like Tobirama enough, but I don't think Kishimoto should have made him more impressive at the cost of Minato. Kishi should have given him a similar space-time jutsu, maybe slightly inferior to FTG, which is what a lot of people thought was the case when Minato mentioned Tobirama's space-time jutsu when he fought Obito.

Tobirama should have just been given that, displayed more awesome Suiton jutsu and used that lightning he was said to wield in the filler episodes.

Minato died young before he had time to make his own jutsu(s). Though, I would say the Rasengan is good enough to make him a badass

Minato died in his prime but he wasn't that young. He was about the same age Kakashi is now, a couple years older I would imagine, actually.

I think that originally, Sakura was supposed to be the genjutsu specialist, naruto taijutsu, and Sasuke ninjutsu. Look at how the sharingan was originally used. Over time it became more and more genjutsu-centered and less about heightened perception and skill copying. And Sakura was neglected so long that her genjutsu specialization no longer made sense with the sharingan around

I hope the sage or kakashi wake her up and they all head over to the fight.

In my head cannon, this is were 'Inner Sakura' makes her Re-debut, force Sakura to wake up, she then convinces the Sage to give her a power up and she and Naruto kick Sasuke's ass together.

GiantBomb did a quick look of the new Naruto game, and Alex kept asking what Zetsu's deal was, why he was a weird venus fly trap man.

Thinking about it made me realize just how weird original black/white Zetsu is after all the war reveals/retcons.

You're not alone, and I think Sakura will come to sooner than we think. I think it's clear she's rooting for Naruto if she has to pick a side, but for once, I would like to fucking see it. By that I mean I want her to actually want Naruto to beat Sasuke. It'd be a nice change from the past where she was either on Sasuke's side (very early on in Part I) or couldn't decide.

Sasuke has turned heel and he's the aggressor in this. I'll only lose more respect for her if Kishimoto doesn't have her definitively support Naruto.

I thought that too, hell in the earlier games she used genjutsu quite a bit. It's just really boring to have a character hit things really be their main ability considering how common that is.
