This book was just too damn busy, and not enough focus, especially considering this is the denouement to an all-out ninja war. Kishimoto crammed a lot into one volume and it ruins the flow of the story. However, he does make it an enjoyable one, with the Gai-sensei/Kisame fight and the flashbacks to Konan and Nagato's youth. Some touching stuff in those flashbacks, let me tell you. Kishimoto is pretty good at making readers care about secondary characters through surprising moments, especially those who have been coded as villains so far.
P.S. - Naruto is really tall. How did I just notice this?
P.S.S. - Ouch. A reference to Jiraiya in one of the flashback scenes. Just when I thought I was over that, Kishimoto comes and rips off the Band-Aid.
A fuller review will be up in a couple of days over at my blog (along with the most recent volumes of Bleach and One Piece): http://nagareboshi-reviews.blogspot.com/

Enjoyed this one but some of the scenes got a little confusing.
Liked seeing guy fighting, seeing a new Naruto form.
Loved the panel of the ocean turning to paper and the turtle Island.

Whatever Kishimoto. Trying to sucker me in through flashbacks because you know I'm interested in prior generations backstory. Giving Konan a decent swan song. Fleshing out Kisame in a way that wasn't entirely uninteresting. I'd give you more credit if this wasn't leading into a zombies storyline.

I knew kabuto would be troublesome at some point but man I didnt imagine it to this extent.
I feel like there is a lot that happens in this volume but then I feel like nothing happened. Guy takes on Kisame, Konan comes face to face with Madara to try and stop him herself. Kabuto locates Naruto and friends. Lastly, the war begins!!!
