This will just give them a way to drag the anime out another three or four years, putting in filler there to cover what the manga isn't doing. They could have kept Sasuke gone another year or six, I'd have been ok with that. Still wondering what Kabuto's "trump card" is. Where the hell is Bee, anyway?

And I have to say, personally, I've been lurking on this forum for most of the past five years, and I always look for what Assertn has to say. So he wins the e-peen contest in my book. Archangel says a lot of good things too, I just don't look for his posts. Not that I really have to, with as many as he's throwing out there.
