NARUTO Chapter 692 Review : Revolution

Written by : FrillyPhoenix

I honestly couldn't believe it when I heard that some people 

were surprised by the turn of events in the manga...

It not like Kishi confirmed a few months ago (once again)

that Sasuke vs. Naruto would happen or anything.

Looks like the perfect "happy ending" picture right..? Well, it only LOOKS like it...

What's happening in this chapter ?

So, after Minato leaves Naruto, it's the other Hokages' turn to say goodbye to Team 7.

With that done, the remainings of the White Zetsus that were used to summon the dead Hokages turn into trees.

With that done, the Tailed Beasts decide of what they're going to do, since they are free now. Those who lost their Jinchuuriki decide to return to their own homes but Hachibi and Kyuubi decide to go back with their Jinchuuriki (plus, Hagoromo decides that Naruto is going to become their meeting place, so Kurama has to be with him and manage those meetings). Kurama goes tsundere again, but accepts.

Hagoromo asks Naruto and Sasuke if their answers (to which question ?) has changed and Naruto answers that he's glad his mom is his mom and that Kaguya felt different from the other enemies he had fought up until now, like she didn't have a personality heart.

Hagoromo says that something must have happened to her after she ate the Chakra Fruit, to make her go from a kind worshipped goddess to a tyrant (but it's this something we were interested in, since it was part of Kaguya's story, it could have given her character some depth, but now, we will never know).

Hagoromo says that the next thing that's left is to undo the Mugen Tsukuyomi, and that the Tailed Beasts' power isn't even needed for that. Only Naruto and Sasuke's powers are needed. Buuuut...

...Sasuke decides to "pull a dickmove" (quoting Shiggins on this). Oh, how surprising. Shocking desu. I never saw it coming. Thank God Tobirama disappeared with a last good impression of the Uchiha before he saw that.

Yes, this joke has been used and re-used, and no, I have no shame.

So, Sasuke decides to kill the Gokage (why ?) and he also places all the Tailed Beasts under his control, thanks to use of the Rinnegan.

A perfectly calm Hagoromo (yeah, he has seen much more $hit than this in his life AND death) tells Naruto that since he's going to disappear soon, Naruto will have to handle all of this alone.
Naruto agrees, but warns him that it won't be anything like Ashura and Indra's fight.

Sasuke gives the most hilarious explaination ever for his actions : before the war, he only wished for destruction. But now, it's, like, totally different ! He wants to destuct AND rebuild (what about we all buy him a LEGO bucket so he can build and destruct his own stuff ?) !

The "revolution" starts with Sasuke imprisoning the Tailed Beasts in "moons" by using Chibaku Tensei (I personally found it very touching when Kurama called for Naruto's help, but the latter's response was so cold **sob**...).

The chapters concludes with Hagoromo saying that both methods have led to battle : giving power to one person only (Ashura) and giving it to two people (N&S). He's almost like : "f*ck this, I've tried everything, I'm out". Last panel shows us a determined Naruto : he's going to stop the sibling rivalry.

Naruto : "Sasubitch ruined my birthday... I'm gonna make him pay-ttebayo !"

But since he knows the NARUTO reviewer of this blog goes on a trip next week, he's be kind enough to wait two weeks before fighting Sasuke. Thanks Naruto ♪ !

My opinion on the chapter :

None, really. I knew it was going to happen (see Mangekyo022, I was right, there WILL be a Sasu vs. Naru fight). However, I'm annoyed by the fact it happens so soon. I was expecting a few chapters of break between the battles. But no, instead of that, Kishi is giving us battle after battle, without letting the characters rest (or the readers).
Well, it does make sense for Sasuke to fight Naruto before freeing everybody, because otherwise, he'd have to fight the entire SA instead of just Naruto, but still. I can't believe they have enough chakra left for that, when they just had the biggest fight of their life.

Also, I'm interested in seeing what will be Kakashi and Sakura's reaction (not that they will be able to do anything, but that could be nice to have their point of view).

Overall : 2/5.

     Good thing(s) :

+ Kurama IZ SO KYUTE ♥ (yes, this is all I could find for the "good things" for this chapter)

     Meh thing(s) :

• battle after battle, let us rest Kishi !

     Bad thing(s) :

- Sasuke's reasons for his revolution

That's all folks ! Thanks for reading and see you in two weeks !
