So....I dropped Naruto for 3 weeks and decided to catch up because there was nothing better to do while I did a shit.

It wasn't quite as bad as what I was expecting. It felt no different from the average filler years ago. Cramming it made it all the less painless.


Now, to start some actual discussion - Tobi.

That guy is an idiot. Talkative, funny and seems to be able to take as much damage as our most hardy Naruto character to date. They sort of did it subtly, but to me it was all but announced in your face:

Tobi is strong. MUCH stronger than he cares to show.

If HorribleSub's dialogue is to be trusted, he was the one who threw the final punch. Deidera, on the other hand, comments as if to salvage whatever pride he had left in front of Tobi's boasting. Try as he might, his face shows he can't deny whatever insane power this idiot has. The fact that such a farce of an Akatsuki noob possesses strength that may well surpass his own pisses him off.

And now I'm actually anticipating what that power is. (I don't think I've seen the words "anticipate" and "Naruto" coexist in a sentence for a long, long time)

It better not disappoint.
