Those kinds of flashbacks are the best.

Time to flash back to when they were teenagers, since Guy was there from time to time. Might as well repeat the Obito flashback too, while they're there. Then at the end they can show Neji giving a thumbs-up. | ||

Every time he's around for anything, he just spells out everything that happens or has happened, in case someone wasn't paying attention. It's frustrating, wasting precious panel space, when I already know all the shit he's talking about. Liked him better as a bad guy. Hope he gets killed. You have to remember this manga is directed to children so dont get mad when your upset that a child's manga is too explanatory. | ||

I don't remember that being said anywhere, the series has had its moments, I know it's better than that. Besides, the whole "directed at children" thing is only ever an excuse. I was able to enjoy things that went over my head as a kid, and it made me curious to learn about things I didn't know. I hate that excuse, it gives stuff like this a pass for no reason. But I digress. Either way, he still talks too damn much. | ||

Wasn't his mantra "I'll tell you what I'm going to do because I'm so bad ass you can't hope to stop me anyway"? | ||

But he was a BAD GUY then. Now he's just talking about annoying shit, like hey Kabuto, your chakra is so different because it takes from all these different sources, you seem like a different person, but OH WAIT, since you're here, you must have escaped from the infinite loop of Itachi's Izanami jutsu, rite? RITE? None of that was necessary, could have been summed up in 1 line and been something you might actually think he would say. Instead he just busts out this retarded monologue, I guess because he thinks the manga is based on him or something. It's probably just because Kishi wants to take up space so he can drag things out, like how the 2nd Hokage got like half a page - and of course a long-winded line from Orochimaru - for literally no reason. | ||

At this point that should not be impressive at all xD Of course Gai is gonna be awesome and lose tho, I hope it's as epic as Lee vs Gaara. Best fight in the series imo. ya, I agree. It's not impressive because of that. | ||

I was under the impression it was supposed to be greater than that of a kage. With the minor side effect of death. | ||

I believe there are some authors in Japan who age their work accordingly - maybe not exactly linearly. doesnt really work that way, because then someone finds the volumes starts reading it then it changes dramatically by the time there done it makes more sense to keep the manga consistant then try to change it to compensate for the fanbase thats unlikely to ever stop reading it no matter waht | ||

It's not impressive because of that. the quote from the manga says "suprasses the hokage" not "similar to the hokage", and dont forget that at that time Hokages were described as OP as hell lol. page on the manga (4th panel): + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i30.mangareader.net/naruto/85/naruto-1775.jpg) Theres also an elaborated explanation regarding the gates, figured it might be interesting to read it again with the up and coming chapter getting closer: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i38.mangareader.net/naruto/85/naruto-1774.jpg) apparently the death gate is in your heart, so thats why you die when releasing it. its a nice small detail i personally forgot. | ||
