| It's up to Chapter 402 now, and the entire Sasuke leaving the Leaf Village has actually come full circle now. It's incredible. There's some things I saw coming, and some I didn't. All enjoyable. I don't watch the anime anymore, partly because the fillers totally turned me off (even to Shippuden), and partly because the manga has always (by necessity) been so far ahead of the anime). But yeah. There's some new things going on, and we're on the verge of reading about some new abilities. The whole plot has developed further, so it'll be exciting to see what ends up happening. In all, there was just a huge twist in the story. - Spoiler:
What do you think about Sasuke's new "Eagle" eyes? (just referencing Ch. 402). I think it might actually be his "Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan," the kind that Uchiha Madara/Tobi had after taking his brother's eyes. Itachi transferred all of his eye abilities to Sasuke, and Sasuke also awakened his own Mangekyou Sharingan, so to me the new eye pattern suggests the manifestation of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (haha, what a handful to type!).
Not sure what's going to happen now, but it definitely looks like Sasuke bought Tobi's story, whether it was true or not. But given the flashbacks and Itachi's final words to Sasuke ("Sorry Sasuke... this is the last time."), it lends credence to that story. Although of course that's what the author wants us to believe.
Do you think he's for real? I personally think he spent too much time and effort developing this plotline just for it to be a decoy story for readers.
And what do you think is going to happen now? For one, I see Sasuke avenging himself on the village specifically by destroying the old leadership - those two advisors, for one. And maybe going up against The Fifth. We'll have to see.

| so tempted to read the spoiler.... but no! my self control will prevail this day.
i don't read the manga (though, i've been told numerous times that i should). obviously i watch the anime, sticking with it through every filler episode. the cannon material is significantly better (duh), but there are actually a few filler arcs that were ok (read: almost average). | |
