Naruto Shippuuden Episode 25

[poopdeville]

Depending on the different culture, the 'chakras' are traditionally manifested in various parts of the human body (wikipedia's article on this is horrible...) and sometimes generated in several parts of the body. But, almost every time Kishimoto shows one of his explanatory diagrams, it's evident that the most chakra is concentrated in the chest area. I've taken that to mean that all chakra is generated from there.

Well, what Kishi calls 'chakra' is called 'qi', 'ki', or 'chi' in real life (depending on which language you're transliterating). The chakras are places where ki collects and does stuff. Kind of like Kishi's chakra gates. Presumably, Kishi didn't use 'ki' because Toriyama already did (like how Hunter x Hunter uses 'nen' for the same basic idea).

I bet the chakra article on Wikipedia will make a lot more sense to you now.

good episode, I agree with everyone on the long minute thing but other than that, it felt fast paced. I didnt like naruto + kakashi scene as much but the omake at the end was so good, i didnt even know that Oro left Akatsuki bcause he failed to take Itachi's body. But what I dont understand is, if Sasori's head is a puppet, then is his brain stored inside? or does he somehow think without one? I liked how Kakashi commented himself as smart as Shikamaru, and I agree with him. Go go kakashi :thumbs up:

Wow, all of this happy talk is making me wonder if I should stop my self-imposed 10 episode wait period before watching Naruto again.

Nah, at this point you might as well wait for the battle to be over. We'll tell you when.
