Very sad. I knew it had to come even as I was reading it the first time, but it's still sad. I'll miss Ero-senin.
If that wasn't enough, we've finally got the long awaited fight between Itachi and Sasuke. It's only been forty-two volumes in the making. It's not like anyone had been waiting, what, eight years to finally see?
Do I sound bitter? Naaah... It's a fucking awesome battle.

Disappointed with the Jiraiya angle.
Felt pulling Naruto into it was unnecessary.
Excited to see Tobi. Can't believe Uchiha Madara is alive.
Love the genjutsu fight .
Disappointed Itachi had personal motivation in keeping Sasuke alive , thought he would have some convulated atonement in mind.

La relevancia de Jiraiya en la trama concluye con final trágico y emocionante. Siempre en nuestro recuerdo
