 * Sasuke's "Death": I couldn't believe that a main character would die so early, and I had a hard time believing Sasuke could be dead. Luckily, he wasn't, so that added a bit of levity.
 * Haku throwing himself in front of Zabuza: This probably wouldn't have affected me as much if there weren't so much blood. I guess I souldn't blame Kishi for trying to be realistic though.
 * Sasuke vs. Gaara: I have to say Gaara doesn't really scare me as much as some people, but when Sasuke chidoried his sand shield and pulled out blood, then Gaara began transforming, I was legitimately creeped out. Also Gaara showing up at Lee's room with ful intent to kill was pretty scary.
 * Jiraiya and Tsunade vs. Orochimaru: Tsunade gets stabbed through the midsection! Yay! Bloodshed galore, plus animals attacking each other!
 * Neji vs. Kidomaru and Kiba vs. Sakon: Neji getting repeatedly stabbed and Kiba having to stab himself were pretty chilling.
 * Death of Gaara: It just awed me how quickly he was killed off, and how the shinobi never had a chance. Like Sasuke, though, he returns, which adds levity.
 * Itachi taking Sasuke's eyes: I had thought the Sasuke vs. Itachi battle was relatively boring at first, but this was an eye-opener for me. Even if it was only genjutsu, it genuinely scared me.
 * Eight-Tails Naruto: Just its appearance creeped me out, and the fact that it managed to break out of a PLANET made it only the more terrifying. Thank goodness daddy showed up to take the monster away :P
 * Killer B vs. Kisame: I didn't really think much about this battle until I started to realize that Killer B had no chance against this man. Kisame didn't have to do much other than stand around. When I first saw Killer B and his fight against Sasuke, I thought of him as an unstoppable powerhouse, but this was a real eye-opener for me.
 * Akatsuki raid Turtle Island: This island, said by A to be totally safe, was raided by two Akatsuki members who gained intel and a prisoner. Not feeling very secure at the moment.
 * Tsunade bisected: Seriously. I was not expecting Madara or Kishi to go that far. I don't even know how she stayed alive, it was that serious.
 * Sasuke stabbed and Nine Tails extracted: When we began to realize that Naruto's Uzumaki heritage wasn't enough to survive nine tails being extracted, and when we realized that Madara stabbing Sasuke was not a genjutsu, it was all very shocking. I have to say I genuinely feared for the two characters, when it seemed no medical attention could cure them. It took a visit from a god and a former villain to heal them.

How on Earth did I forget Kiba versus Sakon?! It honestly slipped my mind! Hearing your opponent call and suddenly finding his demon head sticking out of your own body is another one of those things that make me feel shinobi need some serious counseling in addition to medical ninjutsu. As for Haku, what made it even more unsettling was the fact that he was smiling (since he was so happy that he had proven to be of use to somebody). In any case, these were good choices and you did a hood job of explaining why you were affected by them.
