I thought this chapter was horrendous! A constant motif throughout the series was that war catalyzes a vicious cycle of hatred which envelops everyone involved to the point where compromise seems out of the question. Though I disagreed with madara, I could understand how his circumstances gave birth to his vicious persona. In this chapter, Kishi sort of threw all of that away. Ultimatley, the driving goal of the main villain was simply to take back chakra, which she PASSED ON to her children.
