Thank you, GS, thank you.

Regarding the chapter - fucking awesome!!

For a moment I thought Kakashi was going to leave for the bridge, but no... he went ahead and saved Obito's ass. That part when he got the eye scar was really sweet, too... it just looked believable and great and uh, yeah.

Also, Obito finally developing the Sharingan, even if with only two dots, looked just... well, cool. Very cool. The way he killed (or at least stabbed) that ninja and he goes "From now on, I'll protect my friends!"

It makes me curious about a few things, though -
First, what's the deal with the special kunai that the Fourth is giving everyone? Sure, they look different, but what makes them so special?

Second, what will happen to the bridge Kakashi's team was suppossed to protect or whatever? I wonder if they'll get chewed because of that... also, they can't kill Obito and Rin now, not so soon dammit!! I'm finally starting to get interested in the Gaiden.

Third, tell us the Fourth's name already Kishimoto... if he's tring to hide the fact that he looks like Naruto and that he might be his father, he should've made his hair green or purple.

I'm so torn now. I want this gaiden to go on for a while and yet I want to see the adolescent genins. Ah, despair. I shall go study to forget the pain that this causes me. </exaggerattion>
