reminiscent of the pilot indeed!

so now naruto needs to be friendly with the kyuubi? trip to inside the mind again? weren't he there just a few days ago? maybe even hours?
it was obvious that it was gonna bite him in the ass if he just ignores the poor beast's feelings.
or maybe creating the rasengan meant that the 4th decided the fox was irredeemable and the jutsu was created for Kuhina to have access to the super move despite that.

does finding out about the zombies weakness mean that now the leaf forces (or the entire ninja nation) will join back together, and just search for people they know and convince them to drop dead?

who the hell is left that knows Hanzo?
