This chapter was so-so. Looks like Kakashi doesn't get to be Hokage, now that Tsunade is awake.

I kind of felt the same, after I finished the chapter I was tempted to read it again because I felt like I didn't read properly.

It's a setup chapter. It's preparing you with as much information as possible in like 17 pages. Also allows for Kishimoto to have more time to spend on the next chapter which will be WAY more important as Kisame will probably make his move in the next issue. As far as the series goes though, we may be in for a longer haul than first expected. It seems like Kishimoto was preparing for giving an ending to the series about 5 chapters back, but with these last three chapters, it now looks like he's trying to continue on the series for at least another 30 chapters, or even more. I think that probably has something to do with the Jump staff and editorial department deciding to keep the series going and Kishimoto complying with the request.

I'm glad Kakashi's not Hokage. Although not sure how I feel on Sasuke's new upgrade yet.
Well it's one of the top selling manga in Japan and America, like Dragonball Z I think they'll keep it going for a quite a bit of time. Hopefully though they'll end it before we wind up with a Naruto GT. Or a Naruto Evolution movie.

oh god, don't remind me of the DBZ filler. i'll kill myself if i think of that crap.
anyone else get the feeling that this, along with bleach, maybe, would be a lot better as a monthly manga? fourty pages would really help with the story, instead of twenty giving us only five minutes of nothing happening. more could be done, and that would more than make up for the longer waiting time between issues. the chapters are just way to short.
also, agreed on Kakashi as hokage. it sounded good a while back, but now it is kinda dumb. he's a much better character as he is, instead of forcing him into a position of power that would demand more attention on him for a while. glad that Tsunade's back, but why wouldn't he show her as an old woman?
