KirinNOTKarin98 wrote: Everything Wrong With Chapter 688: This is an in-depth comment in which I want to talk more about what exactly was wrong with this chapter. I'm not intending this comment to be a rant, but more of constructive criticism on how this chapter royally messed up this week. Let's get started-

'''I. Obito's in this chapter? I thought he died:''' The minute I saw Obito and Rin on the first page I got a bad feeling. Last week was the perfect ending for his character, with Rin taking his hand, preparing to go to the afterlife with him. The ambiguity of what would happen to Obito after he had died was perfect, and I was very satisfied with his end. However, all of that was ruined when we saw him in this chapter once again. While I did appreciate that he got a better final farewell with Kakashi than he did last week, I think it would've been better if he had done this before he died and not after. The explanation of how he was able to come back and see Kakashi makes very little to no sense. And while I'm glad that Kakashi now has both Mangekyo Sharingan, I feel like the way he acquired it was also very fishy.

I always imagined Kakashi would gain both Sharingan eyes, but this is not how I imagined it. In my mind, Kakashi would've kept his left Sharingan eye (that means Madara would not have ripped it out in 674), and then Obito, who would be on the verge of death, would give Kakashi his Sharingan eye like he did long ago. In fact, I thought it would've been cool if Obito himself slashed Kakashi's right eye, and so now Kakashi would have two scars as well as two Sharingan eyes. Which is better: my version or the version Kishi did?

'''II. Sasuke gets sh!t on again:''' If anything, this may the time where I vent a little more than usual. And if we're being honest, this chapter should've been called "688: Sasuke Gets Sh!tted On!" Once again, Sasuke's Perfect Susanoo is rendered useless by Kaguya (even though he was using it against her last chapter) and he is saved by Naruto. Then Naruto does another attack, and once again, it works on Kaguya, transforming her into some extremely weird chakra monster. Then when he attempts to save Sakura, he is overshadowed by Kakashi, who uses his Perfect Susanoo to save her from harm.

And let's touch on that really quickly (but not too much, as that is what #III is). I believed Sasuke's Perfect Susanoo was one of the rare ones, as he was able to fly around with his giant humanoid monster. But then Kakashi does the exact same thing with little effort. If we're being honest, Sasuke's most impressive power-up from Hagoromo was that Perfect Susanoo, and now that Kakashi can use it so carelessly, it doesn't seem that special anymore.

'''III. Kakashi has a Perfect Susanoo? Get outta here!:''' This is arguably the biggest problem people have with this chapter, and I'm not going to lie, this is probably my biggest problem too. For starters, let me say I'm very glad Kakashi has both Sharingan eyes, and I'm extremely happy. And in fact, I was looking forward to seeing Kakashi manifest a Susanoo ribcage, incomplete Susanoo, or even a complete Susanoo. But a Perfect Susanoo right off the bat? And not just that, but also a flying Perfect Susanoo? I'm sorry, but this is the biggest asspull in the entire series (or at least the biggest one that comes to my mind). First, I've never seen anyone activate Perfect Susanoo without going through the other few stages first. Second, Kakashi is not an Uchiha, and so he should have enough trouble activating the first few stages of the original Susanoo, let alone the Perfect Susanoo. Finally, Kakashi had little chakra, and should not be able to able to pull off a technique of this caliber. Mangekyo Sharingan =/= more chakra- in fact, the Mangekyo Sharingan drains chakra, and so I don't understand the reasoning that says this is possible. Had Kakashi manifested either a ribcage, incomplete, or complete Susanoo, that would've been perfect and absolutely awesome. But him managing to manifest a flying Perfect Susanoo is a huge asspull that I cannot give any lead way too.

'''IV. Other Miscellaneous Problems:''' This won't be as long or in-depth as the other three. First, Naruto's character seems way too inconsistent with his character from the last chapter. Last chapter, he was devastated over Obito's death and angry at Black Zetu's tirade, but in this chapter, he is the happy-go-lucky guy he normally is and it seems like he's already forgot about Obito's death. Next, while he is incapacitated at the moment, I really wish either Naruto or Sasuke (or Kakashi, at this time) had killed him once and for all. Also, I'm disappointed that Kaguya was not able to control the Ten-Tails, and instead turned into a huge monster that is a combination of all the Tailed Beasts, with her looking like a rabbit with a big eye in the center. I actually laughed at that panel- it looks so silly! Finally, now that Kakashi has received this massive powerup, I'm almost certain Sakura will also get some massive powerup to be able to compete with those three, and if we're being honest, it will probably be similar to Kakashi's massive asspull in this chapter. Maybe she will manifest "Inner Sakura" from Part I, and stomp all over that Kaguya monster! XD

What do you think of the points I have made? Do you agree? Let me know your thoughts on the matter!!!

A agree, Kishimoto lied about what he said was gonna happen in the next chapter with his anger bursting, it's just obito helping out Kakashi, no real big anger burst!

Im serious.
