Naruto Shippuuden Episode 159

Anyways any thoughts on why Kakashi didn't just use Mangekyo after he determined a near instant attack was necessary to use in the 5 sec interval (ocular jutsu is pretty much instant itself)? He could have used it instead of Chidori.

I guess he was trying to conserve chakra since he knew there were 4 other pains out and about. .

Kakashi is screwed after he uses his Mangekyo Sharingan a few times. Since all the Pains have linked vision, you'd also want to give as little away about your ability as possible.

I was actually surprised at how many times he used Raikiri straight up before anything else. I guess it's the first time we've seen him fight someone so dangerous that you need to assassinate him immediately.

Furthering the conversations before about clones taking a hit, Kakashi's ones sure take them rather well. The first kick that went through him was both confusing and cool-looking. Strange that he'd opt for a Lightning Clone though. I was under the impression that Shadow Clones were the only clones to form a real body, making them indistinguishable from the real one. Pain should have taken the hint too when his first kick failed.

I have my own issues with this final(?) Pain's power being Magnetic Force. It doesn't fit into anything currently existing what so ever, and looks like something a filler writer (or movie writer) would come up with.

What the hell...

WHAT THE HELL!?

I can't believe that just happened...

Not just that Kakashi died, but that the series killed a major character without doing 3 episodes of ominous forshadowing first.

At least they killed the puppet Pain(hopefully). It's going to suck if every Pain is gonna cost us a major character though.

Well, at least before he died he finally put to rest the issue of someone being able to use more than two elemental chakras. As now he could DEFINITELY use Water, Lightning and Earth. If Abdul still came to this board I'd totally tell him to suck it!

It seems like Clones that are actually made of stuff, like wood, lightning, rather than just being shadow clones, can actually take a hit. Either that, or they really are just better at making clones than Naruto.

It's not really magnetism since it works on everything. It's more like gravity manipulation.

But even if it was Magnetism I'm not sure why you think that doesn't fit. The powers of Sasori's puppet of the 3rd Kazekage were based entirely on magnetism.

I adopted the term Magnetic Force from another anime. It's not limited to magnetism.

And at least the 3rd Kazekage's was a form of Sand technique, just "cooler", iron sand.
