Why do everybody are so damn sure there's going to be a time jump??
Anyway I agree with Everon, one on one is very boring, not to mention the curse seal thing is so damn similar to the DBZ powerup it's pitiful.

Now let's hope all these Itachi related flashback will actually bring back Itachi, but I guess I'm hoping too much.

Off topic: Lefty is that bleach? That's Ichigo right? I want Ichigo with wing as my sig from chp116 ^_^!
