instead of actually providing us some answers to the real questions (akatsuki, demons and what not), he makes up a stupid rule and then wastes seven chapters pushing through that rule.

oh, and even after the fight between Sasori, deidara and the good guys, we'll be nowhere close to learnning anything new about anything, deidara will probably say poof and escape, Chiyo will kill Sasori and have a flashback death scene, and Sakura will save Gaara from his so called death. and again, we'll have to wait for a few more months to get any real information about something.

seriously, if we're gonna have a clone vs originial matches now i'm gonna burst, unless one of you believes that the clones have any chance to win over the real guys...

if kishimoto has a shard of respect left for his readers, then he'll end the clone fight in one page with 5 panels:
1. gai clone attacks
2. Neji gets hit by clone
3. Lee gets up and hits the clone
4. Tenten sticks alot of weapons into the clone and makes it go poof
5. Neji reports to Gai that he has taken care of his clone.

I love how some people chalk up what they don't like about the current storylines to a disrespect Kishimoto has for his fans. It's his story, get over it.
