Thats the only thing I can say about the chapter... oh and I wonder what move Madara will make now.
It's not like we knew he could use both forms at once (it was only hinted that it worked). As if he had a reason to before now. The fox chakra was OP for every situation, and it makes him OP in this one too now that he can absorb natural energy way quicker. Most of the stupidity you talk about is for laughs anyway. They've been at war for so goddamn long how else is he supposed to work that in? And how is he not above sasuke? The only thing he has is intelligence whereas naruto has raw power and will which since basically the chuunin exams has made him come out on top.

None of what I said has to do with anything else than Naruto acting stupid since Sasuke joined him. In this chapter I am specifically refering to him forgetting only Sage techniques work on Obito, nothing else. If Kishimoto really needed to work comedy into the manga because it's been dry of it for too long, simply, why now and not before?. He's only trying to keep Sasuke fans satisfied by showing he still ha the upper hand on Naruto in some way.

Well, that was an interesting history listen, even if it was a little cliche.

Glad the plot is progressing. Tired of this stalemate, someone needs to get wrecked.

We just saw a tree suck the life out of people. I think that's pretty awesome.

Thought the title of God tree was a bit odd for the chapter when I saw the first page. Then as I read it, yes, I now know why it has that name. I always knew trees would be the death of the ninja world.

This war has been going with, Obito getting on top, then Naruto getting on top and so on multiple times. I definitely don't see how Naruto's team can get on top this time.
I wonder how many of the secondary characters (or main?) got suck up.

Is Naruto really coming to an end?. ..
Well we all know how those 5 minutes in Namekusei went in DragonBall. These are 15 so we can expect it to extend to the next year.
If everyone was connected through the Ino's jutsu, I guess even Sasuke got a taste of Naruto's feelings. I can't see him wanting to bl0w up anything after it all is over. They will probably make real the desire of Hashirama and Madara.

I think there were plans to end shippuden and then start another branch off where Naruto (or someone) is hokage and stuff like that, but I don't have a source. I mean, i find it hard to get a villain tougher than the false reincarnation of the Sage of the Six Paths and the Chakra tree.

That was made up. I think we went through this before and the person who said it couldn't ever come up with a link bar some faked spanish(?) interview claiming to be from some convention, on some noname site that hadn't been reposted anywhere on any big anime/manga website. That alone should tell you how much credibility it had.

Just got back to Naruto, and this is what i find:
The ten tails, the feared and most powerful creature that ravaged the earth.... was actually a tree....

So, I decided to start watching Naruto again (stopped three years ago because of filler). Im on episode 277, and this is what I noticed:
Season 11 (going by Crunchyroll's seasons) was 20 episodes, 90% filler.
Season 12 is 90 episodes (so far).
why?

The meeting of the first kages was a neat flashback.

That Juugo sanin mode susano-o seems like an asspull, a small one compared to the others we've seen though.

It does give purpose to...juugo's entire character though. Using nature chakra curse seal would make him unbelievably OP in terms of curse seals and he hasn't exactly been utilized very much either. However susanoo merging with juugo (vice versa rather) to get the nature element is pretty fishy imo. Isn't anything that touches him supposed to burn immediately? So how is he chilling inside of it?

Who even cares anymore. This fight has literally thrown every rule I can think of about how naruto ninjas/techniques work out the window, why stop there?

What bothers me the most about naruto is how the entire first half of it, at least, is just worthless. The entire premise of the set up is you have this bratty kid who is cursed and ridiculed, for having one of the strongest entities in their universe. It just so happens he inherited it and we should all hate him for it. Then they spout all this "HARD WORK CONQUERS ALL", in fact naruto vs neji just shoves that down your throat. Then we find out he's the 4th's son, one of the most revered ninja's, who was intentionally made the 9 tails host, where were supposed to believe this prodigy child is nothing more than an accident?
Fast forward now, and he's one of the strongest ninja, not by work, but this savant premise where he just inherently understands everything around him.

Hell I'm starting to think the whole reason they killed off Neji was so he wouldn't find out the 4th is Naruto's dad and go "I was right the whole fuc'king time!"
