Good chapter.
Good chapter.
Not much of a fan of the rapping, doesn't translate too well really. I will be sad when bee is killed (It will happen i'm sure naruto has to be the last to make it look like they will lose) because hes so laid back.
I wasn't super into this chapter but it wasn't horrible.
One thing that really bothers me is that Naruto can perfect sage mode something Jiraya could not yet he still can't make a regular rasengan without a bunshin.
Brofist / Respecknuckles totally made this chapter worthwhile.
But yeah. It wasn't a bad one. I like Naruto's moments of idiocy, where he thinks the Squid is Bee. Nice to see some of that old comedy still surfacing.
Me too, also i'm annoyed that he has only used wind release rasengan once in battle and seem to forgot about it. Wouldn't mind technique update, with him just using two hands for rasengan (jiraya only used one hand), 1 bushin for wind release rasengen, and great ball rasengan, but still 2 for rasenshuriken. Orginally he wasn't to far off getting rasengan with just two hands, and he did do it one handed in 1 tail form vs sasuke.
But isnt jiraiya rasengan gimpier than naruto's?
Didn't they say to do sage mode training you had to have a massive amount of charka just to do the training. Might be that naruto has a lot more than jiraiya, thus was able to complete it. Just because he has all that charka doesn't mean he can control it like jiraiya could. I will agree that he should know how to do it one handed by now. Shit all he would have to do is make 100 of himself and train for like 30 mins = done.
In the most recent movie, he uses both hands no bunshin for regular rasengan, kinda looks like he's gonna blast a kamehameha. At the end he pumps out a Wind Release: Rasenshuriken. This was about the first time since killing Kakuzu that he's used it, minus in the Anime while training in Mount Myōboku.
But yeah, still hope for him to learn something new, cuz this all is getting too old.
Sage mode uses the energy around you not your own chakra. So I don't think your chakra base has anything to do with it. It takes a lot of control to manipulate the the natural energy without becoming a toad. So you would think that since he could master such a difficult technique that he could preform a regular rasengan now without making a clone.
That's the anime though. Just this chapter we saw him use a bunshin.![]()
I always summed up the bunshin Rasengan as something done because its a trademark Naruto move to utilize his bunshin in most of his techniques.
It'd make sense if he used it the more efficient way but Naruto isn't exactly the most efficient ninja.
This is what i mean.

And sense naruto has more it might be easier for him to mix them right.
Someone remind me what Wind Release Rasengan is again?
this.. I think?
Spoiler: show
He used that a lot during the pain fight.
Yeah, he did use Rasenshuriken during the Pain fight:
Spoiler: show
This is Wind Release: Rasengan:

Everyone else in the past couple of posts were just showing you Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.

Wind Release: Rasengan is pretty useless when it doesn't do as much cutting and mega damage as Wind Release: Rasenshuriken does. Naruto used Wind Release: Rasengan in a Combo attack with Captain Yamato to stop Kakuzu's Wind + Fire Mask Combo attack which was aimed at Kakashi/Choji/Ino.
Wind Release: Rasengan is also just an A Rank technique like Chidori. It's not as strong as the S rank Wind Release: Rasenshuriken which can be compared to Raikiri.
Plus Naruto can combine Wind Release: Rasenshuriken with his Shadow Shuriken technique (since he can throw it in Sage Mode by encasing it in Natural Energy, and because it is shaped like a fucking giant shuriken lol). He took out Naraka Path with Shadow Shuriken + Wind Release: Rasenshuriken. He also attempted to take out Deva Path that way multiple times too.
You guys have to remember, Sage mode is not a technique that only comes from his power, he's using the power of nature around him, i.e. he manipulates the earth below him to harness insane strength, or he manipulates air around him to move super fast and jump higher now.
Naruto also has Sage Art: Rasenrengan (aka Rasengan Barrage in English):

and
Sage Art: Odama Rasengan (aka Sage Art: Giant Rasengan in English):

All he needs to do is master some more cutting wind techniques like Danzo has with his Vacuum Sphere stuff or fuse his wind shape manipulation with his Kunai more often, but don't forget that requires good Chakra control...
Hell if Naruto becomes smart enough like Kakashi, he can make Wind Release: Shadow Clone jutsu. A Shadow Clone that acts like one, but when it is attacked hard enough, it'll disperse and slice up the opponent with Wind Release. Imagine 999 Wind Release Shadow Clones fighting Sasuke LOL!!! If he tried kicking any of them his leg would get cut off. Since Wind > Lightning Release, he couldn't use any lightning techniques like Chidori Senbon to take them out in multiples either.
Remember Kakashi's Lightning Release: Shadow Clone:

He basically just combined Lightning Element with his Shadow Clone and when Asura Pain killed the clone he got Paralyzed long enough for Choza to Smash it. Naruto takes a long time to learn shit, but he could easily do it faster with his 100+ shadow clones training method. All he needs to do is train...Once he has his Jinchuriki training done, he'll have a super healing factor he can always activate too (Remember each time he asks for the fox energy his skin heals instantly).
Say what you will about Vajra, but he's the only one of us willing to look shit up.
