The Naruto vs. Kiba wasn't that great - those two are my favorite characters and I know it wasn't that great! It was 70% flashbacks showing Kiba is a meanie and poor Naruto deserved to win cuz hes so kuuuuute lolzors!!!11

As for this chapter... well, I liked the shading on the last two pages. And the concentrated Rasengan looked cool... and uh, the shading, yes, and Sasuke looks like a duck now.

What did catch me off-guard a little bit is (if you've read my translation, if not, skip this part) that Naruto is losing sensibility in one of his arms.
That either means that Naruto's body can't handle that much chakra release OR that the Kyuubi has somehow won control of Naruto's left hand O_O

Ever seen that bad movie were some guy's hand becomes possesed by the devil and the hand kills people and gropes girls on its own? Maybe its happening the same thing to Naruto's left hand!! Maybe the left hand will take over and do something useful for a change!

was there anything in the word usage that implies the latter?

I checked and no, or at least not that I can see. The kanji don't seem to be off or weird in any aspect, so I'm pretty sure the translation is correct, but maybe Inane will do it differently...

You seemed pretty much right in your translation of that line, Winged; I checked my Kanji dictionary because I was curious.

I've got one of those hands... usually gets me slapped. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Well, I'm hopeful that Sasuke becomes dragon-like, instead of being a big fat mallard. Hopefully, Naruto will somber up, along with being taken over by Kyuubi, and it'll have to be his friends that return him to the happy-happy land.
