mootjee said: Danzo was awesome in the end! I really didnt like him before but now......... He is a great guy!!! Perfect ending and loved it when i saw the second and third hokage.xD agree, i like Danzo too.. He died as Hokage to protect Konoha(although his way misguided), in the end he realized he never surpass Hiruzen |
| After reading the manga it is still very sad seeing danzo's past. Felt sorry for him when he was trying to run with all the blood and Sasuke just having some evil face on him. Sasuke keeps getting worse ... |
 |
| I dont think Danzo is so great. If he would have more chakra/strong jutsu's (Izanagi is timed immortality, nothing more) he would be similar to Pain (Peace due fear) with much worse background story. I dont know how he was maintaining control over the root |
| Great episode. I guess I always thought Danzo actually did care about Konoha but he was too much of a coward to be Hokage. |
 |
| Ah seeing Hiruzen made me really sad again. I missed him, I was sad when he died with a smile on his face wayyy back in the first airing of Naruto on the local channel here in my country. Yup I guess I like that old geezer that much even though he's just a side character on this series. Danzo on the other hand, got only pity from me. In a way, at least he died thinking his sacrifice will be for Konoha, no matter how futile it was. Sasuke is turning out to be one sick bastard is he? I almost hate him now like Makoto from School Days. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| So... Did Danzo even use his genjutsu, the one you can't notice? I have a feeling we'll be seeing Danzo again later. |
| Finally Danzo dies. I respect that he tried to do whats best for Konoha and Ninja World as a whole, but his methods are inexcusable. He let his thirst for power get to his head. He sent so many to their deaths, but in the end he ran scared of dying. Very fitting end for Danzo imo. |

Arcanus said: So... Did Danzo even use his genjutsu, the one you can't notice? I have a feeling we'll be seeing Danzo again later. Usually in Naruto after this kind of flashbacks from past discovering their true self/beliefs/desires - their're pretty sure dead :p |
| danzo isn't that great of a character... where was danzo when Pain attacked konoha? and danzo killed the messanger frog that tried to inform naurto. he doesn't love or wants to protect konoha. he wants nothing but power. I'm interested in what kind of power did itachi gave naruto. can't wait for that. >.> |
 |
| He was hiding under Konoha, waiting until Pain will destroy village and kill Tsunade, it was his plan to take over the village (it was in anime and manga, dunno how you missed it lol). But also I wonder, he had sharingans + wooden element to control kyubi, so shouldnt he help naruto after comeback in defeating Pain, should he? I noticed few flaws in the story :( |
| Godly episode! Danzo was the man! The flashbacks were killer, and made dazo into an awesome character! rip Danzo. I wonder what happend to Suigetsu and Juugo after they got caught, and what will happen to them? |
| Sasuke is just getting worse and I doubt Karin is dead. Sasuke probably abandoned Juugo and Suigetsu, so Team Taka is no more... |
 |
| sick Sasuke should kick the bucket already! talking to his dead nii-san which he killed himself sums it all up, mental case emo boy has clearly matured *rolleyes* but good episodes! i like very much ^^ |
| srsly' best "mangas" episode so far. |
| Fingers crossed that annoying little red head is DEAD. |
| I always watch them Monad said: That face, that face!!!!! Danzo's running at the end made little sense to me. Wasn't he claiming that he wasn't afraid of death? He already knew he was hit in a critical part what did he thought he will accomplish by trying to run? He might as well used that little power left, to do something with the sharingan eye he had or try and grab Sasuke and explode with him. Or was that to show that in the end he didn't change from the past and he was still fearful of death no matter what he claimed? That he was still shaking inside like he was so many years ago when he thought about the suicide mission? Well Danzo was always looking out for the greater good. Madara was the bigger target, so he didn't want to waste his final technique on some "small fry." So he act like his running away to basically get Madara to come to him. Well I kinda returned to Naruto again just now and ended up seeing all the episodes quickly again. I try not to watch often because it takes too long to do the story, I think I'll start reading the Manga soon. I always liked Danzo because he has that "for the greater good, no matter the cost" and I personally hold a similar belief on certain things. So I really liked how they ended it showing his relationship with the Third. It was really sweet. The only thing I didn't like about this is that Danzo doesn't kill Karin, it doesn't make sense; he would instantly put out the order to kill Ao and possibly cause a war (he would kill Ao himself if he had the chance), but he doesn't kill this sensor type. I guess its just to show a bigger turning point for Sasuke; but I feel it goes against Danzo personality, he wouldn't risk a sensor watching his movements (Karin was useless anyway but still) Danzo not killing Karin really bugged me and that is why I decided to post my thoughts somewhere. I don't have a problem with Karin but after reading a couple of comments I guess most people do. LOL. ^_^ |
| ...I was waiting for someone to pop up with this but since no one did I will go ahead and do it myself. Anyone else think Sasuke went blind on his right eye? I never seen an Uchiha being able to "turn on" his sharingan one at a time and we all know crying blood every 5 seconds would eventually get to him.... so, whats up with that? Almost Thursday again weee ^^ |

LOL. ^_^ Because in first episode her love to Sasuke was funny a bit, but it became real pain to watch over and over her boring attitude You know, in every anime main characters are somehow special :P As said in previous episode almost every Uchica member will eventually lose sight while using sharingan too much, but there is a way to counter this by obtaining eternal sharingan |

Danzou wasn't afraid of dying, he just had more things he wanted to accomplish. I still think his methods were questionable if not plain evil, but he did it for the village. |

| Danzo running away was more about twisted Sasuke chasing him than anything else, I hardly think they even bothered thinking about Danzo when they (either the anime production staff or Kishimoto) opted for that outcome. @Furine I am aware of that, just wasn't expecting it to happen so soon (if it actually did go trough). New question then... would this "new" Sasuke be willing to dig up his brother's body to snatch his eyes? I remember him specifically telling Madara no when he was told about the "ultimate" Uchiha eyes, but right now I am not so sure the answer would be the same. If he managed to deceive himself into killing (attempted at least.... but we will see about that) Karin I think he could pull off an argument that desecrating his body would actually be something Itachi would approve off. |
| "There is no stupid questions, only stupid people." |
| So far he's going by logic, but when he will go on full rampage he will be able to do it. Watching how he is progressing with vengeance and hate stuff its not far from it. |
| for eternal sharingan is what he meant by that (by taking other user's eyes with mangekyou shringan activated he cant go blind anymore, I don't know if some imba dojutsu are posible after that since MAdara is still a mystery) |
| @Furine That. Also important to note that one can only do that with his own brother... like Madara did with his. @wuzzle "Karin, don't move!" implies that he just messed up Danzou's guts not hers. Nice catch. That indeed might be the case.... for once Karin's glasses were thrown away when she felt to the ground but in the preview they were in her meaning either a gross continuity problem (not that far fetched actually considering Korean/Chinese in-betwen animation prowess) or that Sasuke actually put them back on. Also the fact (already pointed) that he had a chidori going on while staring at Karin when Sakura appeared, meaning either he was going for the final blow (unlikely) or maybe trying to cauterize the wound (probably a stunt to create an emotional pitch were Sakura misinterprets his actions and we all can feel bad for him lulz). God dammit, it's been a while since the last time I even bothered theorizing about Shippuuden... this goes to show how good the plot is picking up ;p |
| "There is no stupid questions, only stupid people." |
| Action is very jumpy right now and we only know what Naruto, Sakura, Garaa and other Konoha youngsters are thinking, but unfortunately we can't be sure whats up in Sasuke's head.. I think he didnt care about Karin much, he might thought "If you wont move, you might have bigger chance to survive, good for you" |
| At the end Danzo was not such a prick after all. |

I have to wonder. What good will Itachi's eyes do? Didn't he go completely blind before he died? Shouldn't his eyes be useless? |

| ah karin better pull through Danzo was kool sacrificing himself like that |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Poor Donzo, he seemed like a nice guy, I guess he was just mislead in the wrong direction. Sasuke will kill anybody, hell he would even kill Madara. Great episode though. |
 |
| OMG KARIN! SHE DIDNT DESERVE THAT! |
     |
| Danzo's finally dead. Though I dunno what to feel. But the battle was great. And the flashbacks weren't as irritating as I thought they'll be. :D The next episode seems interesting. I half expect Sakura to get hit in a vital point too. :D :D :D |
| OMG! One of the most emotional episodes in naruto! :'-( damn it! why is it only now that Danzou's past is revealed? He would get a huge props and respect from me :-(( Starting to hate sasuke now after this episode.. he's like a lunatic killer.. felt sorry for Karin and Danzou.. Several keypoint flashbacks.. like Shisui and 2nd Hokage, with Konaha councils; Homura and Koharu.. I really liked the part where they portrayed Saru and Danzou as being close friends.. which resembles much like naruto and sasuke during their genin years.. and also the little explaination of leaf and "root" :-) Danzou at the end should be proud.. died in a real true shinobi fashion.. hope sasuke burns! >:-(( |

When Sasuke missed to chidori Danzo, and Danzou took Karin as hostage, Sasuke turned back. At that time, in manga his right eye looks blind and after that also. Anime made the eyes full black. So to answer your question, yes blind to certain extent as seen in manga. |
| -Even though I'm not fond of Karin, this is basically the moment where I finally lost all my respect for Sasuke -I'm not fond of Danzo...but I do feel bad for him especially after seeing the flashbacks. |
ilikeyouevenmore said: Amagai said: Yeah, he's definately a bastard.…the darkness continues to encompass Sasuke. x10 in this episode. I couldn't believe he did that to Karin. I hope there's a twist. Or he really is that manipulative and heartless now... iiSatou said: After seeing Danzo's past, everyone has a change of heart, I see... Yeah... Kind of hard to hold a grudge against Danzo after seeing that little blurb of a flashback. Even I spent all these episodes counting down until his death, and then, when he was running stumbling away from Sasuke, I couldn't help but feel so bad for him. Then the flashback... :\ He was a great villain. Like they say, "The road/path to hell is paved with good intentions." Wasn't that at least in part true for Danzo? |
| Hmm... Somehow i actually felt sorry for that bastard in the end o.o But well... guess he was good at the bottom and really wanted to do good for the city... he just made all of the wrong decisions... ._. such a shame... i never thought i would think like that about that bastard... merle_noir said: Then the flashback... : He was a great villain. Like they say, "The road/path to hell is paved with good intentions." Wasn't that at least in part true for Danzo? You're so right ._. but well... Sasuke i still hate just as much as i always had... if not more xD Poor Karin even thou i always thought she was so dang annoying... |

| You said it all... so much for this battle, it's been a great fight |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Looks like there was more to Danzo than I thought, my opinion of him went up after hearing his story. I still dislike him, but not as much. Sasuke is becoming a lot more of an ass though, Karin had a lot of love for him, but as soon as she becomes a burden, he fucking kills her... That is something that will be very hard, if not impossible, to forgive. I may not have liked Karin's character, but she did not deserve to go out like that. :( |
| this episode was beast, sasuke+s transformation to evil maniac, was done really good, but whata was better done was danzo´s justification, still one of my favorite shinobis in the naruto universe |
| This series has a lot of tragedy very nicely done |
