Naruto Manga Chapter 483: Sasuke tries to kill Sakura

As Kakashi commented in this Chapter, who knew Sasuke could’ve fallen so low as to be serious in killing one of his former team mates?

Madara has indeed corrupted Sasuke so much, he’s bordering on being a real murderer hell-bent on exacting revenge on Konoha.

Kakashi saves Sakura from Sasuke

Luckily for Sakura, Kakashi arrives on time to save her and face his former student. Her plans to take care of Sasuke on her own backfired with even her life being put in danger. With Sasuke having no remorse in killing any of his former friends from the Hidden Leaf, the battle between him and Kakashi, master and student, will be of epic proportions.

It’s Copy Ninja Kakashi versus the Uchiha’s fallen avenger Sasuke in the next chapters of the manga series. Who do you think would win?

Naruto Chapter 397: Itachi really wanted to protect Sasuke

Mind-boggling! This is what I would describe Chapter 397: The Man Who Knows the Truth of the Naruto manga series.

Tobi who is also no other than the third Sharingan user, Uchiha Madara has started to reveal to Sasuke the whole truth about his older brother, the legendary Uchiha Itachi. According to Madara, Itachi’s goals were never really to gain power for his own selfish ends, but for a nobler and higher cause: “the protection of the shinobi world, Leaf village and most of all, his little brother Sasuke.”

Unfortunately, the path towards such goals was the tragic demise of the entire Uchiha clan and much of Sasuke’s suffering and pain. Is this the price for the protection of all things dear to Itachi as Madara claims?

But protection from what or whom? From Uchiha Madara of course. My guess is that Itachi knew of Madara’s plans to come back and conquer the shinobi world using the demon spirits and that he would use his own Uchiha clan, the Sharingan in particular, to do this. Itachi would not allow it, so he set out on his own path to gain more power so that in the end, he would be able to stop Madara from fulfilling his evil plans.

Itachi, however, failed but has prepared for this: keeping Sasuke alive and making sure he becomes stronger and more powerful. He even went as far as transferring all of his eye techniques to Sasuke just to give him more powers. That’s the reason Itachi didn’t kill Sasuke even though he could very well do it.

This stunning twist in the Naruto story is surely one for the record books. I haven’t heard of any other character who has risked so much, done something so sick and twisted just to protect the things and persons he valued so much. Uchiha Itachi is just one bad-ass ninja, and a genius similar to the likes of Darth Sidious from the Star Wars universe.

But what is the real truth about Itachi? Why did he had to go through so much just to fulfill his goal of protecting Sasuke? We’ll have to wait for some time because unfortunately, there would be no chapter release next week. But until then, we are left in awe of Itachi’s character.

Naruto Chapter 396: Uchiha Madara starts to tell truth

Another chapter of the hugely popular Naruto series has been released, Chapter 396: Introductions. In this chapter, Tobi/Uchiha Madara takes center stage as he proceeds to carry out his master plan in which it seems that Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke plays very important roles.

After Madara receives word that the battle is over and that Itachi has been defeated by Sasuke, he speeds off to the scene of the battle and see for himself the outcome of bloody and monumental encounter between brothers.

At the end of the chapter, Madara really catches the world’s attention by doing two things:

Talking about revealing the “truth” about Uchiha Itachi
Taking his mask off

Which brings us to some of the most asked questions about the Naruto world right now:

What is the “truth” about Uchiha Itachi that Madara is talking about?
How does Uchiha Madara look like now?
What is the real plan of Uchiha Madara? Does it involve Sasuke or just his eye?

Now the stage has been set for the next chapter in which these questions will be answered.

Naruto Chapter 394: Uchiha Itachi Dead

jhay — Sat, 22 Mar 2008 01:32:26 +0000

With Chapter 394 of the Naruto Manga series confirms the end of one of the story’s most phenomenal character, Uchiha Itachi. Love him or hate him, you cannot help but have a feeling that series has really moved into its closing stages now that the ‘Destroyer of the Uchiha Clan’ is dead.

At the end of their violent, bloody and epic battle, Itachi collapses inches away from obtaining Sasuke’s eyes. The most priced objects in the Naruto world next to the powers of the Kyuubi itself. Orochimaru, Uchiha Itachi and even Uchiha Madara all hungered and lusted for a new set of the dreaded Uchiha eyes which hold the sinister Sharingan and all of its unworldly powers.

What’s next for Sasuke?

It seems luck or fate is on the side of Sasuke as he will now walk away from this chapter of his life alive, intact and with both of his eyes. What will he do next? Now that he has succeeded in avenging his clan, what will be his next goal?

Will he fulfill his second one? Which is to revive his infamous Uchiha clan? Girls both from the Naruto and the real world would be delighted by this news. It would very interesting to see the other side of Uchiha Sasuke.

Or, would he pick up the trail he discovered from the tale Itachi told him. That aside from the two of them, there is still one remaining Uchiha, Uchiha Madara. We are now convinced that the eccentric Akatsuki member Tobi and the legendary Uchiha Madara are one and the same and on the other half of Chapter 394, the expanded Team Kakashi is currently battling the strange and mysterious character.

Once more, another link or “bond” exists between Sasuke and Naruto. How will this “bond” determine the outcome of the series, will soon find out.

Naruto Chapter 392: Itachi defeats Orochimaru for good!

jhay — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 00:24:36 +0000

It’s been a long while since I last posted a review about the Naruto Manga series which has taken us fans into a wild roller-coaster ride that has had Itachi and Sasuke fans the world over raving and raging over who’s going to be one of the last Uchihas alive.

In the latest installment, Chapter 392: Susano’O, Itachi demonstrates his awesome powers, something inherent in his previous techniques, Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu, their brother, Susano’O. Whom, in Shinto belief is the god of the sea and storms.

He was ‘summoned’ or this technique was used by Itachi after Sasuke survived both Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu draining both of them of their chakras in the process. On the other hand, Sasuke resorted to relying on the powers of the cursed seal. In a surprise of all surprises, this became the opportunity for one of the series’ longest-running villains to re spawn, Orochimaru himself!

Using his Hydra technique, Orochimaru attacked Itachi but it was all in vain. Susano’O beheaded all but one of the eight giant snakes and with that, Orochimaru revealed himself to ‘take care of some unfinished business’ himself. It was the definitely the end of the line for Orochimaru, for Itachi quickly disposed of him using the Sword of Totsuka as wielded by Susano’O. According to the manga, it is the one sword Orochimaru had been searching for all his life, for it has the powerful ability to seal anything or anyone away in a blissful-like genjutsu forever.

Another Sannin passes on

Talk about poetic justice and things coming full circle; Orochimaru being sealed away by the very sword he was searching for and by the one who had it all along Itachi, whom he first sought out in the early stages of the whole series. Orochimaru’s unrelenting and worldly ambitions has become his undoing and as much like Jiraiya, this Sannin’s end has been of epic and legendary scale.

On a good side though, I believe it has also cured Sasuke of the cursed seal as shown in the manga. But with no more tricks up his sleeve, is this definitely the end for Uchiha Sasuke?

Chapter 393 will hold the answer.
