Naruto Chapter 627 Discussion

It's awesome that Sasuke is standing with the village but I'm disappointed that we will never see an epic battle between sasuke and naruto.

Well as long as I get to see sasuke in battle im happy.

this played out all too easily. it seems everyone is just changing their mind. i guess naruto might get the boost he needs to end all of this.

Just because everyone knows what you want to say, doesn't mean you shouldn't say it anyways.



We all saw it coming even if we didn't want it to go like that. Sasuke's indecision on whether or not to take revenge lies on the question: Is Konoha worthy of Itachi's sacrifice?



That's where Hashirama and the Hokages come in, Hashirama (together with Madara) were the first ones to develop the concept of Hidden villages, the start of a world where every Shinobi must be ready to sacrifice everything for the village, where morals and principles are bent to the village's will.



Why do Shinobi exist? What is their purpose? What is the purpose of the village?



He learnt then that Shinobi endure all that pain so that others won't need to: Hashirama and Madara created Konoha so that children could grow being children, not warriors.



Tobirama had to change who he was to not be as soft as Hashirama, or as dangerous as Madara, to become the Hokage that Konoha needed.



Hiruzen sacrificed the Uchiha, because a civil war would've only ended in blood and hatred, it was the safest way.



Minato sealed the Kyuubi inside Naruto sacrificing himself and his son, to protect those who lived in the village and giving Naruto a fighting chance against Akatsuki.



Itachi chose to eliminate the Uchiha because he understood the purpose of the village, of shinobi, he left Sasuke alive because his love for him went beyond that of the village.



Sasuke wanted to know the reason behind all that sacrifice, why would anyone endure so much? He needed to understand before deciding. Sasuke is not a fool, he knows by now that making a decision without true understanding of the situation is stupid. He decided that the reason behind it all was worthy after all.



Basically, we knew this would've happened since we learned about the truth behind the Uchiha massacre.



I liked the chapter.



Excellent reasoning. And I don't think he has gone to the 'good' side yet. More like a temporary alliance in my eyes. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, ya know...



Even so, Orochimaru definitely has something planned. He has too much pride and too much hatred not to.



This chapter sets up for some interesting plot twists along the way, but I believe that the Naruto manga might be coming to a close pretty soon. Almost all of the plot devices have been tied and this battle has a sense of finality to it. (I mean unless this wants to boil down into a RomCom...)



Anyways, I can't wait until the next chapter.

Next chapter will be f*king wicked. I'm pretty sure Naruto and Sakura will flip they brains out. And the current Madara is going to piss his pants. Nice chapter. Sasuke is "good" again, and I'm happy.

Great chapter! finally Sasuke acts smart and realize what Itachi wanted for him. Karin was stupid to forgive Sasuke, though, i mean he almost killed her, but as Suigetsu says, shes an idiot. Cant for next chapter --Hokages and Naruto and Kakashi/Guy, Bee and bunch of others V. Madara and Obito, and ten tails its gonna be awesome, i can tell the story is finally drawing to the final climax.Yeah well Sasuke tried to kill Sakura as well... repeatedly I might add. How's that helped her any?

...Wow. Did he finally stop being psychotic?

I liked seeing Sasuke's sweat drop @ Karin's snuggling. So cute.



Namikaze talks about meeting his son...

Hashirama talks about meeting his friend...Did he forget that his granddaughter is also on the battlefield? >:| Though dying ;___;



Also, it was pretty f*cking stupid how Karin just forgave Sasuke like that.

Oh shit, I knew that I'd have a good laugh reading some of the comments here but you guys exceeded my expectations by far. Thank you. <3



Now to my own opinion

a. the gaming department can look forward to flashy techniques over the course of the next few chapters

b. plotwise this chapter was complete garbage and Kishi should be ashamed of himself

I kinda expected that ending... but i dint think Orochimaru would turn side so easily...

Sasuke doing it makes sense, but Orochimaru doesnt...
