Does the manga writer have anything to do with the date book?

Anyway, I'm with everyone on the Lightning Crown Heavyweight Champion of the Wooooooooooooooooorld! TM kicking the crap out of Sasuke is kind of nice. I'm kind of annoyed at the letting his arm get caught by the Amaterasu thing though. I'm hoping that he has a way to mitigate the damage he does, either by body flickering out of it, or by having the lightning shield he's using cause the flame to extinguish before it consumes his arm. If something to that effect doesn't happen, Sasuke'll have won in a non-gimmicky fashion.
