SWEET!

Oh, man, I love Naruto in pain! That shot with his fingers scrabbling in the dirt? Awesomecakes.

And I am THRILLED that Pain is being an effective villain. I mean, he has a point (FINALLY!) Naruto's justice is just as just as Pain's, but Pain's is just as just as Naruto's.

Also, did anyone else notice how things Pain has destroyed goes: Jiraiya (provably dead), Kakashi (?), friends (provably alive, all of them, god damnit.)

I really enjoyed the Jiraiya cameo.

Was the in-between flashback of when Nagato first killed those men to save Yahiko?

But where the hell is Sakura?!?!?!?!?!!?

I loved the mindfuck-no-jutsu...Pain and Naruto's dialogue was actually really compelling for once.

Sakura should be showing up soon methinks...I really want to read her and Tsunade's reaction to Shizune's death.

I'm thinking the flashback is the birth of 'Pain' or the death of Yahiko...I'll have to look at it again but there seemed to be three bodies on the ground that were all adults...

I loved this too. I also am awaiting Sakura and Tsunade's reaction! And confirmation about Kakashi! (What happened there? We've been left hanging for way too long! Think there will be other cameos featuring the dead folks? XD)

Yay for Jiraiya cameo! :D

Oh, I can't wait to see what's happening with Tsunade and Sakura!

And I don't know about more cameos... I don't think enough people have died....

Me too... honestly I suspect we might cut back to them to find that Tsunade's dying/dead...

Someone suggested that it couldn't been Nagato's parents, which makes sense...
