Naruto Chapter 379

Since I don't really have anything interesting to review at the moment, I'll just review this week's Naruto. Even if it's considered a little weaboo-ish. Oh well...

Sooo, Jiraiya and Pain are still fighting. Naruto and co are STILL nowhere to be seen. Fun. At first it looks like Jiraiya's going to win, because he traps Pain and his summonings into some weird Genjutsu which Jiraiya claims traps the soul but it looks more like some big water-crystal-thingy. Then Jiraiya delievers a speech and kinda like sticks a sword through Pain's stomach, which I'm sure that would normally kill someone...

Yaaaay! The possibly most boring fight in Naruto has finished! At least, that's what you think...

Pain suddenly attacks and Jiraiya loses an arm (couldn't be bothered to get an image for that bit)...

...Attack of the random Pains, it seems. Oh yeah, spiky haired Pain is back and not the same as the Deidara Pain that I (and probably other people) thought. It also seems that 'Pain Rikdou' is just their collective name and that Jiraiya recognises the spiky haired one. At least it ended on a cliffhanger, which gives me slightly more interest in the next chapter, but overall, Pain or whatever is becoming more and more like a fan-character... another disappointment. Or maybe this is just the fact that I'm really losing interest in this manga - and fast. If that's the case, blame this arc.
