Now for this week chapter, the chapter 678.
It begins by showing us the four other villages (because we all know there’s nothing else in the world outside those 5 villages) and everywhere is the zombie world. Madara’s technique really got the whole world. So it’s basically the end of the world, where everybody is living their dream (literally). So to spend some pages Kishimoto showed us what some people are dreaming about. Looks like I had a misconception of the Mugen Tsukoyumi. I thought everybody were going to be in a big fake world (the dream). Like everybody would be in the same dream and the caster of the genjutsu would shape this world the way he likes it. But it looks like everybody’s having their own dream. Some weird ones on top of that.
But let’s get back to the reunited team 7. Again Kishimoto, through Sasuke, is stating how useless Sakura is. I mean got damn she’s useless. Even if Sasuke said it in harsh direct way he was freaking right. (Even if he’s being a dick about it). Now the moon/sunshine that is putting people to sleep ended (how convenient). Now they can get outside of susanoo and kick some ass……… Sasuke and Naruto are going to kick ass. If they can, because now it looks like Kaguya is taking over.
I was asking myself, why is zetsu/obito isn’t affected by the Mugen Tsukoyumi ? He doesn’t have the Rinnegan and he was under the light. Looks like it was Kaguya’s doing. Kishimoto like to do this to perfection; answering some questions and make us ask other, harder ones. Like, why is it Kaguya’s will is in black Zetsu ? Was she alive all this time ? And now that we know she’s a villain (I knew it) how was she defeated in the first place ? Hagoromo just said that he and his mysterious brother fought the juubi. Was the juubi under Kaguya’s control ? And who the hell is that brother ? And now, is Madara dead ?
So many questions and not a lot of time to answer them.
I think is was a good setup chapter. I think next chapter we should have some explanation, knowing Kishi, he could take a chapter showing us what everybody in the shinobi alliance is dreaming. Let’s hope not.
I’m giving this chapter a 6.5/10. Good chapter, good story progression and some good exposition of Sakura’s uselessness.
Leave me some comments and reply so I can also have your opinion.
See y’all next review.
