In my failure to remember everything I read immediately, I did remember early this morning that we were told last week there would be no Naruto manga this week. If you've been waiting on this week's release then, like me, you either forgot, or else you haven't actually read chapter 397 yet. *tsk tsk

It's written right on the bottom of the page > [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

That's right, Kishimoto is once again hanging us to death with the manga delay.

Lol.. Yes, he must be just simply having a grand time holding out on us. Typical.. build people up to the brink of bursting and then.. WHAM! He's evil I say, just evil! First he makes Itachi look like a bad guy, that loves his brother, then he makes him look like a total bad guy, then goes and kills him, and thennnnn he decides to have Tobi, of all people, say that "Itachi risked everything for the shinobi and Konoha" and that he did actually love Sasuke. *hmph And now we wait yet another week.

He is one twisted man, but he's gotta have breaks too.

Yes, yes.. he does require a break every once in awhile, too. And it is better marketing sense to take that break after a really good chapter, which is bound to leave people waiting for the next one, rather than taking a break during a boring section. But still.. we enjoy being flustered, and we'll always love Masashi. =)

that is very very true, im just greatful that the manga isnt like some anime's they delay for a long period of time like R+V.

Yes, the guy deserves a little bit of break. But.. he better make one damn awesome chapter next week - OR ELSE.

Lol. I agree who would make Itachi look like a maniac then have him be a kind older brother again?

awwwwwww poop i 4got all about that T.T

I'm kinda disappointed about the chapter being delayed. At first anime got delayed last week and now, when I was going to read the latest manga chapter I discovered that it wont be out this week.

yea tell me about it now i have 2 wait another week jus 2 know wat i should have known the week b4 T.T

Arrgh evil Kishimoto lol *sigh* now we must be patient for another week or so darn it I want to know what Tobi wants to tell Sasuke *begin's to twitch* lol

I'm still wanting to know what Itachi wanted to tell Naruto! I wonder if that will ever come up? I'm crossing my fingers that Masashi-sama is taking his time and coming up with a great storyline where Itachi transferred some of his thoughts to Sasuke, too, and we find out soooo much more. Just going to have to be patient for another week.

I'd also like to know what Itachi had to say. I think it would really be a kick in the face for the fans if Kishimoto wouldn't tell us that.
