I hate watching

Itachi die. It was bad enough the first time, but to watch him die in animation is even worse than on the manga!

I think its pretty funny though that it took every ounce of Sasuke to kill Itachi, well technically he didn't even kill Itachi, Itachi died because he was ill, but going back to point. Sasuke got chakra depleted trying to kill a guy that was terminally ill and already suffering from chakra depletion. That doesn't really say much for Sasuke does it?

Does any other Narutards out there feel like Sasuke's always got help from someone, dead or alive? Okay, not really in the beginning before he got he curse mark, but since the chuunin exams when he started to take his 'ambition' to kill Itachi a lot more seriously than before he had some sort of help. Orochimaru's at frist in killing Itachi and everyone that came before Itachi, and then after Itachi died, he had help from Itachi, the Mangekyo Sharingan, Amaterasu and Susanoo. I'm probably the only one who thinks this, its just that it comes across as if Sasuke can't really fight on his own.

Then you'd have other people arguing, 'well Naruto isn't exactly a lone fighter either', I never said that Naruto didn't get help. Of course, he has the nine-tails. But lately he doesn't use it as much as he used to, especially since the fight with Orochimaru and he learnt that he hurt Sakura. He didn't use for AGES after that, and then he really wasn't controlling it himself. He just kinda lost it. I guess we al have mood swings, right? His just seem to come out a little more ... violent than others.

The problem with that argument too is that Naruto half the time doesn't opt to choose the nine-tails. He uses it more as a final resort when he knows he won't win unless he had to use it. Sasuke just uses it to the full extent. I mean, we still haven't seen what exactly Itachi gave to Naruto yet, and that happened AGES a go in the manga.

I have said 'AGES' a lot in this post, haven't I?
I'm using it more or less in hopes of getting the point across.

I don't know, maybe its because I really hate Sasuke and I wanted Itachi to win the fight. I was hoping and praying when it was in the manga for Itachi to kick Sasuke's butt. I'll always be an Itachi fan at heart I guess.

Oh yeah, and I'm broke at the moment. Just thought I'd let everyone know. I went into town today intent on buying notebooks for my stories and sorting out my work experience. I did buy notebooks, but only three of the intended six I needed because I bought a book instead. It was 'Fang: A Maximum Ride Story' I've read all the first five and I couldn't resist once I saw it in the shop. I know. I'm that bad when it comes to books. Though I haven't gotten that far into it yet. That's what tomorrow's for, right?
