Naruto, Vol. 54: Peace Viaduct
by Masashi Kishimoto
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/
