"Sasuke's Victory"
Guess he did win. Wonder if Itachi was wounded before, or whether they just missed the whole 'Mangekyou wastes the users eyes after a while, rendering you blind'. Sasuke passed out too.
On one of the pages, just before he faints, he looked like he was contemplating taking Itachi's eyes...then he fainted. That kinda sucked. lol. Mind you though, that'd defeat the whole purpose of why Sasuke became strong in the first place. Sasuke's only goal was to beat Itachi. So now, does he need to become more powerful? Does he want to become more powerful?
Shock, Horror! We've seen some Naruto! Although, there's something that I'm gonna say too. I'm becoming a small fan of Shino. He always seems so quietly keen to fight. A reserved fighter, who doesn't gloat, brag, go emo (Lol) or anything else. He just fights when needed. (For example, when he had the Kankuro fight. He didn't fight because he had to. He just wanted to XD)

Shino made me lol. I liked how they mention "I wasn't around for the last mission".
I'm glad the fight is over, I think. The problem I have with it... is that it's one of the endgame plotlines, all wrapped up. Where DOES this leave Sasuke in the series now? The snake that escaped in the previous chapter has been burned... so hopefully that means no more Orochimaru - as cool as he was, his time is gone. But... now what? They're gonna nuke the rest of Akatsuki... and then what? He's just gonna go back to Konoha?
Man. Kisame's gonna be grumpy though. Lol.
Come to think of it, the series is really ripping through Akatsuki now. It's good to see, I guess. Think about it, that's five Akatsuki members defeated now... two of them by Sasuke, might I add. He's a little S-rank killer... I'd be pretty naffed off at him if I were Pain. XD
I hope Tobi survives the upcoming battle, actually. He used to irk me before, but I think it's quite amusing to know that the power of Uchiha Madara hides behind the mask of Tobi. He's so... amusing is just the only word I can think of for him.
"Rasengan!"
"OMG impending death.... *fwoosh* NOT"

Yeah, I forgot to mention about the snake actually. Which means it probably wasn't Orochimaru in the first place. I don't think you'd see him burning around like an animal if it was him.

Yeah. Still have Root to return to the story though... >_< I'm hoping Izanagi will make an entrance as Tobi's ultimate attack.  EDIT: Come to think of it... Sasuke still has his place in the story. I've just been reading some of the manga, and recall Sasuke deciding he was going to kill Uchiha Madara too, once he was finished with Itachi. Who knows, maybe this signals his return to being a good guy, and not off in his own world? Away from everyone's complaints? XD |

Maz: Naruto and his team are focusing on Madara as we speak. It seems like a losing fight (Naruto's team), even though Madara isn't trying anything yet, but you never know. Maybe they'll take him out too. It'd be a quick way to wrap up the series. I mean...how many more Akatsuki are there left after that? Not many, that's for sure. I thought about that too Rasengan, they haven't shown Misugetsu (Tsugetsu or whatever else they mis-translate to as well  ) and Kisame in a while have they? I wouldn't mind seeing that fight. Maybe they'll start to focus on it now, that the Uchiha fight is out the way. |

Sorien: I guess... I don't think Madara's going to be taken down in this fight, though. To be honest, I'd be left so immensely unsatisfied with the series if Uchiha Madara were to bite the bullet in this round - I know I'm a little unsatisfied with the story as it stands, but I'd definitely not be interested if he were killed at this stage.
I think it'd be cool if Pain and Konan reappeared as well. It just seems so unrealistic that Tobi is going to completely face-off against all these shinobi, by himself. Think about it, Pain, Konan and Madara versus the Konoha Team that's there at the moment? That'd be a cool fight.
The Konoha Crew would get absolutely whupped, BUT IT'D MAKE SENSE, DARNIT. Seriously, if Akatsuki teamed up, there'd be no battle they could lose.
On a side note... now that the Uchiha fight's finished, I've gone back and reread it in one hit - it's actually a much more enjoyable read in one whole volume than it is on a week-by-week read. I mean, that's a given... but with the fights in particular.... it makes things so much more fun, and bearable to read.

Yeah, that's also where the anime has its benefits. They often compress the manga into only a few episodes on the one fight, as opposed to heaps, and it becomes more coherent. Week by week is tedious. As I said last time. 400 chapters pretty much. That's six years -_-.
