lastly, i don't think naruto isn't gonna beat anyone up. he's gonna lose. i'm almost 100% positive that kyubi naruto will lose to lvl 2 sasuke.
i agree. sasuke has to win. end of story.

I'm kind of disappointed by all of these transformations and power ups. I know its the same old argument, but I would rather see the characters rely on skill, techniques, and strategy rather than power ups from "alternate sources of power". That is what made Naruto such an appealing series to me in the first place (remember the shadow shuriken that they used against Zabuza? That, IMO, was much cooler than seeing Naruto transforming into a beast, or Sasuke and others transforming into monsters, because it was smarter and more creative.)

But, I'm a fan of the series. I'm not going to complain too much, I'm just going to sit back and enjoy whatever twists and turns it takes.
as much as i love the strategey (sp?) and skill most characters in naruto use. this is one fight that i want to see both characters go all out with no kinda of silly tricks. i would just be disappointed if naruto or sauske lost because of some technicality (sp?) like kidoumaru. not to say i didnt like the conclusion of neji vs. kidoumaru. its just that for naruto vs. sasuke some one has to end up on top because of there strength. i see no other way.
