Amaterasu was not his final move ..itachi has one more trick…but it seems like sasuke is the almighty zeus, raiden from MK,or thor whoever, now he’s the god of thunder wow..they just cant seem to make him anything less of a god..this is just the nonsense that makes this fight so comical..lol..notice how sasuke said in the manga before that he’s drain but this last move will do the trick..now since itachi wasn’t killed his cursed seal opens up again yet again granting him more power..wow
4 Lee // Feb 29, 2008 at 10:29 am
What? Is itachi dead?
5 Kakashi // Feb 29, 2008 at 10:56 am
Nice episode.
6 Kakashi // Feb 29, 2008 at 11:46 am
Naruto thinks that he can bring sasuke back but he fails again.
7 Madara Uchiha // Feb 29, 2008 at 2:03 pm
And now, Itachi will unveil the final jutsu.. “Susanou”. Literally translated to be, God of the Seas and Storms. So a week earlier, since Sasuke is God-like now. Let’s plan for his death. Celebration next week at the forum?
8 big kev // Feb 29, 2008 at 2:39 pm
i wish naruto would give up. sasuke doen`t want to come back at all.
9 Pein // Feb 29, 2008 at 4:57 pm
@ Lee
Itachi can’t die not even by the hands of the god that sasuke has become.
@ Voice
I did notice that B.S. sasuke getting more chackra out of nowhere but I guess he can use that trying to swim his way back up from the depths of the ocean, this fight should be over next time.
Although I do think somebody will save sasuke, I don’t think it’s his time to die yet even though it makes perfect sense for him to die right now. I guess you always need a character that people can collectively dislike. Itachi was suppose to be that character but he actually became a very likable bad guy.
10 God of the Voice // Feb 29, 2008 at 5:50 pm
@Pein..despite what happens now, its already clear that Itachi is washed up..for sasuke to push him this far into possibly loosing the fight, this opens up the flood gates for more future stupid fights like this one…Sasuke’s gonna go after madara or pein whoever and prolly beat them too (so corny of a plot)…or naruto might catch a win from someone but is left to fight sasuke..which makes no sense..
Not the 2 fighting each other last is nonsense, cuz thats the obvious conclusion that will form which is so wack and foreseen. It’s just how is naruto suppose to beat sasuke, if he couldn’t beat itachi, so if naruto beats sasuke which will be the case when the smoke is cleared, that outcome doesn’t make any sense, becuz they hype up Sasuke Orochiha (lol) so much it doesn’t make sense for to loose to anyone not even naruto…
@big kev..yes naruto is being real gay searching for a person who obviously doesn’t want to be your friend, for not just 1 but 2 reasons..the first reason was that naruto was stronger than him before he left thats why fought on the roof and kakashi broke it up (which is the most bitchiest reason), and 2nd is itachi.
11 Madara Uchiha // Feb 29, 2008 at 5:54 pm
Sasuke Orochiha, lol. Good one Voice. Sasuke now has many names. But none like Agent Smith. Because between this chapter and last chapter, he found time to stop fighting his brother, then he left Naruto to go absorb Raiden from Mortal Kombat. Now he’s the Thunder God.
12 Kakashi // Feb 29, 2008 at 7:06 pm
How is now stronger? Naruto or that damn Sasuke? Sorry but i really hate sasuke. Naruto was such a good fried but suske was too stup too stay royal to naruto. Kakashi still rocks!
13 big kev // Feb 29, 2008 at 7:43 pm
ok just read the manga and i disagree with all of you, sasuke is not thor or raiden from mk he`s storm from x-men. are you serious kishi he can control lightning now and itachi has one move left. how did sasuke become that strong in only two and a helf years while everyone else including itachi has not. i hope there`s a twist ending where itachi take sasukes eye`s and becomes immortal like tobi (madara uchiha). i like the manga don`t get me wrong but come on really this is how its going to end. bring neji back and he`ll fix all of this.
14 Madara Uchiha // Feb 29, 2008 at 8:43 pm
@ Big Kev. You’re absolutely right. Sasuke (Agent Smith) had to absorb Storm from the X-Men also. Otherwsie, none of this would be possible. What he is doing is already being considered not even humanly possible. (Zetsu’s statement.) It’s actually getting sad. All of the sudden nothin works on him. He breaks Tsukuyomi, survives 2 Amaterasus, breaks all other Genjutsu. Loses all his chakra. Using the strongest technique he has had ever in life, and he had no chakra to use it. Then, with no Chakra, goes back to his Level 2 state to continue the fight against Itachi and his Susanou. You can’t be serious. Sasuke’s power increased forty five times over the time skip, while everyone else just laid on their asses…. yeah right. Don’t worry after he’s done with Itachi, he’ll beat Pein, Madara and then absorb Super Mario, cause thats what he does best. Oh wait, he’ll absorb Kabuto and have the rest of Orochi’s powers and Medical ninja ability. Then he’s unstoppable. What a crock..
15 God of the Voice // Feb 29, 2008 at 9:59 pm
@ Madara and Big Kev
i swear, u guys said it best…wait wait, who ar…..aHHHHHHHHH
@ Madara and Big Kev
this is Sasuke, God of the Voice has been absorbed, I am an avenger, and I will not rest until I destroy u.
16 Lee // Feb 29, 2008 at 9:59 pm
Naruto is goint to kick sasukes ass!
17 God of the Voice // Feb 29, 2008 at 10:14 pm
but first I must get back to fighting itachi, as you can see I do have the ability to leave during mid fight to gain more power.
18 kakashi // Mar 1, 2008 at 12:53 am
Pain
Why can’t Itachi die? He’s just a ninja like everyone else. These are all speculations right?
19 Pein // Mar 1, 2008 at 10:03 am
@ Kakashi
My name is Pein, Itachi can die I wont be mad if Itachi dies but to a worthy opponent in a fight that makes sense, this fight does not make sense. As voice put it after this fight itachi is washed up who can who truly beat now? And after this it wouldn’t make sense for anyone to beat sasuke. As you can see during mid fight sasuke absorbed the god of voice, I think madara’s next lol.
Seriously though sasuke used all his chackra like madara stated and was still able to summon the thunder of heaven and go level two when Itachi didn’t die.
@ everyone who read the manga
did anyone notice that after Itachi got hit by the lightning bolt not only was he no longer blind but the blood around his eyes cleared up? What the fuck was that about?
20 Pein // Mar 1, 2008 at 10:06 am
Look at it this way if… what?… wait.. don’t..AHHH… This is Uchiha Sasuke, I needed more POWER!! KU KU KU KU!!! Soon you will all be absorbed, even you Gaara.
21 Pein // Mar 1, 2008 at 10:55 am
This fight is not interesting me at all. First Kishi went all sceintific so Sasuke could use a jutsu when he is out of chakra. The prooblem with this isn’t that its bad, its just Kishi has never went through such scientfic detail with any other character before. It feels like he was desperate to give Sasuke a OMG jutsu.
And now Itachi has yet another MS jutsu. THis fight has made Itachi too reliant on MS in my opninion.
This was a quote I read from someone else and some one else said I used Bankia like some naruto/bleach crossover… You guys must hate me so much… kukuku…
Did anyone else notice orochimaru’s eyeliner on my left eye? If not read page 16…. kukuku.
22 Lee // Mar 1, 2008 at 11:49 am
Pein
i don’t read the manga because i don’t want to, but a little information of those how read the manga is alright.
Are you saying that sasuke is unstopible now? I thought that narto would kikk his ass. At least i heard so. Is that true? And also will naruto and sasuke become friends again? I like to think so.
Please answer my questions. You are the one that almost knows everything.
23 Pein // Mar 1, 2008 at 1:38 pm
@ Lee
I think Kishi has gone a little mad with what he’s doing with sasuke now but yes he is ridiculously strong and I really do mean ridiculous because much of the things he is able to do does not make any sense.
He some how has the ability to find greatly gifted opponents at their weakest moments and have them destroy themselves lol, I say that sarcastically but it almost seems as though sasuke was the only person that did any training during this time skip as Big Kev stated. As you will find out later in the anime series for some reason when Sasuke is completely drained of his chackra he still pulls off moves that require chackra???
I don’t think Kishi really thought things through when he brought sasuke back, because he is trying to bring him back with a bang, but what is a bang when it doesn’t make any sense?
As far as Naruto goes all his ultimate moves like the fox cloak and the shiruken rasengan he can’t even use because they pose some sort of danger to him but yet sasuke can summon lightning from the heavens not to mention they make it seems as though all naruto has is the rasengan but if I m not mistaken he trained for a little while with Rock Lee so he picked up Tai jutsu and also was able to create Tai jutsu style shadow clones but I guess he forgot who knows?… So to answer your other question it is unknown whether sasuke and naruto will be best friends or mortal enemies.
24 kakashi // Mar 1, 2008 at 4:02 pm
Actually
I see Naruto as a big brother to that stupid sasuke! Naruto will be stronger than Sasuke no matter what. Is Naruto go’s nine tail fox and there will be 5 tails than he will be unstopible! Even Sasuke with Orochimaru togheter won’t stand a chance!
25 God of the Voice // Mar 1, 2008 at 10:26 pm
@ Lee and Kakashi
Naruto was suppose to be better with taijutsu, and was suppose to be a similar copy of neji’s moves (like rotation), if u look at the later episodes of Naruto (not shippuden)..during the intro naruto is training with lee and neji, and also was given the same suit that rock lee wears by gai. (Plus there is a “Taijutsu naruto” in the game.) And naruto and neji was suppose to start almost a best friend kind of relationship, because they thought of each other a lot during there fights.
He gave naruto true recognition, as oppose to what sasuke did and neji knew naruto less longer,but they dropped that. The creator failed to make naruto the way he was suppose to be, instead they downgraded him to having the same moves as before but he’s older, and basically he has no relationship with lee and neji anymore. The creator purposely doesn’t want naruto to look like he’s “strong”, he’s sticking with the idea that naruto has the “potential to be strong”, naruto is always gonna be that potential fighter, and sasuke is known as the strong fighter as u can see from the anime, and from how me, pein, madara, and big kev spoke of the matter based on the manga.
26 big kev // Mar 1, 2008 at 11:12 pm
@ god
your right naruto is a potential fighter he`s always going to fight people way stronger than he is and somehow dig deep into his heart and believe in himself and pull out a win. this is what i don`t like sasuke has all these new moves and naruto just found out that if he does shadow clone jutsu he can train for two years in one tenth of the time. he has a new rasengan he can`t use and the nine tails fox he can`t control. even gaara could control his beast and the girl that had the two cat could transform at will and had full control. but if naruto and sasuke fight sasuke will over power him and naruto will dig deep into his soul and cry for his friend sasuke and want him to come home ( which he should give that up sasuke doesn`t want to come back) and then beat him with something.
27 Pein // Mar 2, 2008 at 1:10 am
I mean kabuto is a criminal and a wanted man konoha, so was orochimaru, if this is the case since sasuke absorbed oro and is now rolling with a bunch of criminal’s (Hebi) shouldn’t he be considered a wanted man not someone who needs rehabilitation?
28 Free2HateMe // Mar 2, 2008 at 6:32 am
pein i read the manga …. hmmm partialy last 90 episodes … 1) i saw the part with teleportation at akatsuki members …
isn’t it?
2) it’s pain not pein …
3) i still don’t get wtf is it with uchiha maadara … i don’t remember seeing him anywhere!
4) it shure is tricky now i am even more intrigued and more confused then i was before reading the manga :-s …. i’ll try to bring more questions out!
Ah i sayd about deidara that he lost to sasuke cuz of itachi … no way dude sasuke had him from the begining beeing 1 step in front of deidara … all the time … and his mind was not messed up cuz of itachi
… he used all his fokin chakra to kill sasuke and he didn’t sasuke became freakin scarry and pain apeared to be nr 1 villain 
… i supose maadara will be nr 1 threath afterall anyway … oke …hope i’ll get some answers 
29 Free2HateMe // Mar 2, 2008 at 6:34 am
…ofc … but u c … sasuke is kishimoto’s favourite character
… he wrote that when sasuke apeared in the manga 
… look for that pls :)) … he can’t be black listed :)) 
30 Madara Uchiha // Mar 2, 2008 at 7:11 pm
Sasuke is God… no one can stop him now. Not even Kishimoto.
31 Madara Uchiha // Mar 2, 2008 at 7:11 pm
I’m sorry… I meant Agent Smith.
32 God of the Voice // Mar 2, 2008 at 8:32 pm
@ Free
U missed the irony of sasuke fighting deidara, that whole fight had itachi written all over it…that is all i will say. From how u speak I don’t believe u understand the character deidara is, and his enrollment into the akatsuki.
33 Madara Uchiha // Mar 2, 2008 at 8:53 pm
@ Voice.
I thought Agent Smith got to you and absorbed you, lol.
34 kakashi // Mar 2, 2008 at 10:27 pm
Wat will happen at the end of the naruto serie? You guys read the manga please tell me!!! And will Naruto and Sasuke become friends again or is sasuke still planning to be gay?
35 God of the Voice // Mar 3, 2008 at 12:11 am
@ Madara
I am breaking out of Sasuke, such a novelistic power like his is no match for mine at full strength, he absorbed me when I came out the gym. I was weak and drained, now he and I occupy the same body but, he can’t harness the power God of the Voice…
36 God of the Voice // Mar 3, 2008 at 12:15 am
@ Madara
Agent Smith and Kishi will find out that true power can only be bestowed on few men alone…they are not part of that few.
37 God of the Voice // Mar 3, 2008 at 12:36 am
@ Kakashi
We can not answer the questions that you ask, if you look carefully at the way we’re typing using the information that we get from the manga. We are just deducing the conlusion, there is no definite answer to what sasuke’s character will be concerning naruto. But I do hope that you analyze what we’re saying and realize that we speak on different level of insight compared to others in this forum, and not everything u read verbatim (manga/anime), delivers a verbatim answer, the real answer is the one behind the words/picture regarding this cartoon.
38 Free2HateMe // Mar 3, 2008 at 5:51 pm
… deidra was messed up by not defeying itachi … and he was facing same type of adversary … don’t be blind
… that is the most itachi did to deidara … not any mind control! … maybe u can read between lines better … and stop being sarcastic with ur idiotic matrix pose … that is the worst movie ever “matrix” ffs …
39 God of the Voice // Mar 3, 2008 at 6:02 pm
@ Free
Wow u respond like most bitches…its not worth conversing with u…
40 God of the Voice // Mar 3, 2008 at 6:06 pm
before u try to use big words learn how to spell the smaller ones..
41 kakashi // Mar 3, 2008 at 7:45 pm
Guys keep it nice here please. Don’t argument about unnecessary objects. Please keep the comments friendly.
Sasuke is a good character. He released the prisoners when he absorbed orochimaru. Still, i thought that this jutsu was made by orochimaru, how is Sauske able to use the same jutsu as orochimaru?
42 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 12:19 am
@ free
Itachi defeated diedara before the match ever started, it took sasuke to throw his swords in one of the luckiest spots plus use all of his chackra and pull some more out of thin air (which even my little brother noticed) to defeat diedara, so be careful with those words “the same type of adversary” because they are wrong from the start of the statement.
Sasuke got a lucky go in that fight which he has gotten in all of his recent fights. Read carefully because kishi makes mistakes with this character that many people who have been reading the manga from the start do not let him get away with.
And another thing stop getting so upset when someone disagrees with you, because it’s childish.
43 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 12:23 am
@ Free
You also missed the fact that Itachi was the reason he hated the stare that sasuke gave him. He killed himself to get rid of the stare on sasuke’s face because it reminded him of Itachi… Diedara said it in a fit of rage so it’s not hard to miss.
44 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 12:28 am
@ Kakashi
since the absorbing technique was reversed and orochimaru was then absorbed, whatever powers that he possessed can then be used by the original host(sasuke). When oro absorbed people he was able to use their techniques. The problem now maybe that orochimaru’s essence is probably taking over sasuke, so soon oro may reemerge, which is a funny twist, the same is happening to Kabuto.
45 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 12:31 am
@ Voice and madara
Lol sasuke will soon grow to powerful for this world and destroy it so make plans to move to the moon.
46 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 12:33 am
@ free
and by the way it’s Pein not Pain but they are pronounced the same. Do not try to correct me on that now.
47 nine-fox // Mar 4, 2008 at 12:52 am
i wonder if itachi’s goin to die in the next manga chapter
that was a good episode
lol @the end
48 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 3:24 am
@ nine-fox
Itachi dieing is the equivalent of Lex Luther being killed in the superman series. Yes there are many bad guys that have no connection to him but he is the main bad guy regardless if there is a leader or someone stronger. At least that is the way I look at it.
49 Free2HateMe // Mar 4, 2008 at 7:45 am
… 1) i am male
… i will search and send link … 
and stop trying to get an internet relationship :)) Ghe Ghe …
… 2) i was late after 10 hrs of work and i am not an expert english speller …!
… 3) hmmm i saw in the manga the name Pain written several times!
… 4) @god of the voice … go get a life …
50 Madara Uchiha // Mar 4, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Lots of hate and violence… I… Madara have returned!!
51 God of the Voice // Mar 4, 2008 at 6:27 pm
@ everyone
what male has smiley faces, better yet overly used smiley faces in his messages, thats some bitch shit..lol
52 Pein // Mar 4, 2008 at 8:23 pm
@free
As I said don’t argue with me on this it’s Pein, you really just like being argumentative. Yes when they translate it, it shows up as Pain but the name is spelled Pein. Why do you always feel the need to challenge me? You can’t win.
@ Vocie
Lmao
@ Madara
I haven’t heard any statements from you recently.
53 Madara Uchiha // Mar 4, 2008 at 8:30 pm
@ Pein.
I know, I’ve been relatively quiet lately. But don’t worry, I’m here. And I’m pretty much watching over everything. I’ve seen the smiley faces used to the maximum. I’ve seen Sasuke absorb Voice and Voice survived. I’ve seen idiot posting. I’ve seen the misspelled names. I’ve heard about Agent Smith moving the moon to take over. I’ve heard NaS is on his list next to be absorbed. I am here. Lol.
54 Madara Uchiha // Mar 4, 2008 at 8:33 pm
Don’t worry, friday is rapidly approaching, so just get ready for the bullshit that Agent Smith will do the survive the Susanou. Just wait and see. Who knows who Sasuke’s gonna absorb before the debut of this week’s manga. Who’s left? This world of the Matrix that he lives in, there’s not too many people left for him to take over. Maybe Tsunade is next. Wait, that doesn’t make any sense, he’ll take someone we would never expect, so possibly Gumby is next. Or maybe Magneto.
55 God of the Voice // Mar 5, 2008 at 6:11 am
@ Madara
Gumby lol…..lets not stop there.. he might absorb The Shredder…lol..Turtles prepare yourselves..
56 Madara Uchiha // Mar 5, 2008 at 2:00 pm
@ Voice.
You know he won’t stop there, you might as well send an e-mail to the Looney toons, because he’s coming for them next. After he finishing with them, he’s going after Obama, Osama and Hillary Clinton, because he wants to be President and running Al Queda also.
57 Pein // Mar 6, 2008 at 9:35 am
@ Voice and Madara
There will be two orochimaru’s when everything is said and done. At least I m hopeful lol.
58 Madara Uchiha // Mar 6, 2008 at 1:44 pm
Lol. @ Pein.
Does it matter? Orochimaru’s a failure. So two of them just means double the failure.
59 Kakashi // Mar 6, 2008 at 4:07 pm
Can someone please tell me when the next episode will come? Was it today or tomorrow?
————————————————————————-
Orochimaru will start controlling sasuke’s body soon or later. Sasuke is a good character. He released orochimaru’s prisoners. Everyone knows that it can’t end here.
After all, orochimaru is an important character is the naruto serie so he can’t just die or be absorbed like this. He will definitely come back.
Ones again, anywone knows when the new episode will be on air? Thanks already.
Friendly regards
Kakashi
60 Madara Uchiha // Mar 6, 2008 at 6:44 pm
New episode should air on thus page later today..
