Naruto - Chapter 494

Summary:

This is going to be a short one.

It's a flashback chapter. Motoi tells them about when he was younger. The 8 tails was put into multiple people; however, none of them could control it and it caused much death. Motoi and most of the villagers hated Bee for being the jinchuuriki. Motoi tried to kill him a few times but he was pretty pathetic at it so of course he never actually did.

There are a few same old flashbacks of Naruto as a kid being bullied and then one panel of them praising him. A giant squid appears and Naruto thinks it's bee but it's pointed out that it's a squid, and then bee comes to save the day. Motoi confesses to Bee and bee just says "Say what! You did?" and smiles.

Thoughts:

Boring and pretty annoying. The only good part about this weeks chapter was the squid which was funny for half a second. I'm not an action junkie, I like story, but this was just slow and boring. Some parts of it just seemed pointless to me. Like the giant squid, or Motoi confessing he tried to kill Bee. He was what, five years old?! That's a hell of a long time ago. I don't think he's going to throw out the friendship for something that happened eons ago. It just seems silly. Maybe it's just me but everyone in this chapter seemed overly dramatic.

Hopefully next week will be better and hopefully Naruto will finally make a move to master the Kyuubi.

Naruto - Dark Naruto - 493 Review/Summary

This post is a little late. I had a wedding to attend yesterday. Anywho. Let's talk naruto!


So it starts with Naruto talking to Dark Naruto. Not real exciting. They talk a bit then they fight but Naruto isn't able to beat Dark Naruto because they're evenly matched and have the same technique. He comes back and say show is he suppose to win the fight when they have the same ability. Then questions if Bee also had a dark side. Well duh he had a dark side, there's a damn evil monster inside of him. Not all that exciting. I would say I was relatively bored with this chapter. No action at all and not any major events. The only major thing that happened, if you want to call it that, is that bee apparently went on a rampage in the past and Motoi tried to kill him.

Naruto is pretty annoying. He didn't win his fight with Dark Naruto and seems a tad pathetic with the whole "how am i suppose to beat him?!" Motoi being super apprehensive about talking to Bee is pretty annoying too. The worlds destruction is a possibility and he's apprehensive?!

I've been a little annoyed with chapters theses past few weeks but I'll continue to read Naruto weekly as I've been for years.
