... ARGHHH! lj deleted my long reply. Hate, hate, hate.
Anyways, continuing one.
Ditto on the T7 and Sanin parallels and subsequent meeting bewteen Sasuke and Orochimaru. The question it, will it be a pleasant meeting (negotiations are fun), or will only one of them walk away.
I think the Jiriaya is not the only one guilty of projecting (yes, it is the right term) more than they should on Sasuke And Naruto. It is sad, but they do it, and it will come to bite them on the arse. Like you, I do agree with Jiriaya's comment on Naruto needing to deal with the fact that Sasuke made a bad choice, but the thing with Naruto is, I really can't tell if he's dealing with it or if it is just not registering that Sasuke made a booboo and will not be coming back. At times it is hard to tell with the boy. But either way if nothing else this chapter does prove that 'Nah, Jiriaya, this boy is so not you.' And I like the fac t that K-sensei highlights the difference.
Orochimaru as Frank. -_- I h8 you, I really do.
Don't forget Sasuke as Janet and Naruto as Delivery Boy. I need to find a good Riff Raff.
Time Jump: Storywise, it will work, but I don't want K-sensei to skip the character development that will happen with a three year jump. They are 12, three years is a looong time fro 12-yr-olds. And they change so much as well. But at the same time I'm desperate for the plot. Desperate! one of them walk away.
