What the fuck is right. The kyuubi, the supposed manifestation of malevolence, wanted to have a friendly chat? Then we're treated to a flashback no one cares about. Lame chapter was lame.

First bad chapter in a while. And even then it was still better then anything bleach has done in months.
I like little side-chapters like this. It marks the first semi-cordial exchange between Naruto and the kyubi since it's subjugation (granted, the kyubi was trying to crush Naruto's spirit, but still).
It shows that the day will come where Naruto and the kyubi really do come to terms the way Killer Bee and the hachibi have.
OMG GUYS WE SAW SOME MORE SAUCEGAY SO EXCITE.
Yeah, I hate chapters like this. Way to not progress the plot at all, Kishi.
Yeah, I'm mostly in this boat right here.
As well, how do we know how evil the Kyuubi really is itself? What most shinobi know of the Kyuubi is his random attack on Konoha and he's known as a "naturally occurring disaster" well uhh...how do we not know that's someone controlling it in some way, and not really the Kyuubi itself wanting to attack and kill things randomly? Sure, the Kyuubi has been a real dick to Naruto, but some worthless runt is acting as your prison guard and you can't do shit about it, you'd be angry and pissed at him too. Now Naruto is finally strong and acting strong and the Kyuubi is giving more of a fair warning (hell, in a way just trying to save itself) than anything else, imo.
Everyone seems to have forgotten about Beck.
This covers my feelings on the subject as wel.Agreed. The flashback was pretty dumb, but some sort of conversation with the nine-tails needed to happen eventually. It's better than a sudden cliche "Let's be best friends because we need each other! Believe it!" during a fight or something.
I was under the impression that the Kyuubi itself was a manifestation of people's hate and resentment, so it's kinda hard to not be evil when you're entirely made out of...evil.As well, how do we know how evil the Kyuubi really is itself?

But yeah, I was almost excited when it seemed that the Kyuubi was willing to be bros and all, but then the fucker had to bring up Sasuke of all people.
WHY CAN'T WE TALK MORE ABOUT NAGATO FUCK
Is the Kyuubi itself that, or is he just what people associate with hate because of the Kyuubi attack, fourth dying, etc. in Konoha? I mean as far as we know the 9 tailed beasts were all created by tearing apart a 10-tailed beast or something, right? And Shukaku had all sorts of hate in him, so they're not separated by personality or any such thing. So they're most likely just a power level difference between them, so the Kyuubi is just the most powerful mass of Chakra that manifested a personality. So we don't know if he's truly evil, because everyone saying he's evil has a very biased opinion.
Well, Sasuke fit his argument better than Nagato. Naruto "won over" Nagato by the end of the fight, Naruto still has yet to have any positive effect on Sasuke whatsoever, and possibly is even the reason Sasuke got even more full of hate. And come on, the Kyuubi made a good argument that plenty of people here should have liked him making.
I'm pretty sure it was stated that they believed the Nine Tails is made of malicious chakra and that's why he'll always reappear?
mods, can we please stick to SFW titles -_-
And I dunno what you guys are talking about. Nothing happened yeah but it was cool seeing Naruto act so badass around the 9tails!
Fairly certain we also saw Bach and Barack.
but yeah the title changing isn't really funny anymore.
Now I have this stuck in my head, thanks.
On topic: I didn't mind the Kyuubi reminding Naruto that he has yet to successfully stop hate from destroying the things he cares about, with Sasuke being Exhibits A-Z. I just wish the storytelling didn't waste time with goddamn flashbacks because seriously, who needs the bajillionth reminder about his rivalry with Sasuke and where it's gone from that point?
Fuck...fillers are in the manga now too?
If you think this was just a friendly chat, and he was just reminding naruto of things, you guys are completely missing the point of this chapter.
Edit: actually read the posts from last page, ignore this ._.
