Naruto 515 – 4th Great Ninja War Prologue


It has been a while since I did a review for a Naruto chapter. The reason why I didn’t do a reviews is that the later chapters is not worthy to be reviewed in my opinion… till this one came along.

Spoiler Alert! The following contains major kickass music courtesy of 30 Seconds to Mars… and minor zombie references.

To give you a quick run on things, here is what happens in the previous chapters… in a nutshell. Konan dies and we learned the truth behind Nagato’s Rinnengan, Kabutochimaru appears and summons a bunch of former Akatsuki members and lastly, Naruto is stuck in a large turtle island to “protect” him from Akatsuki who is now making its move. Oh, I forgot, Madara now dons a new mask and carries two eyes, namely, Sharingan and Rinnengan.


Here’s how the first few pages go, after Deidara’s attack, the Kage returns and now the council of Kages are now planning on their war against Akatsuki. Meanwhile, Akatsuki captured Yamato. I smell an army of freed tailed beast popping out! Back at our protagonist, he slowly smells the fishy side of things… hmmmm.

Like I always do, to prevent major spoilers, here’s more clippings coming from the chapter!

And so, it is decided. This would be the name of the great ninja nations unified as one to stop Akatsuki, they are now called... Shinobi!

 Team Kankuro!

The medics!

The sensors!

Warning to the people, the good and the evil... this. Is. War.

To the soldier...

The specialist...

It's the moment of truth and the moment to lie...

The moment to live and the moment to die...

The moment to fight, the moment to fight, to fight, to fight, to fight!


And so, the prologue of the 4th Great Ninja War begins, and all ninjas of both sides are using their best arsenal to defeat their opponent. Who will win? The Alliance of Shinobis? Or Akatsuki?



If I will do an analysis between the two factions, as of now, Aktsuki has all the big guns while the Alliance of Shinobis wins in terms of number. Considering how the 3rd Hokage faced his mentors, 1st and 2nd, it seems the Shinobis will have a hard time dealing with Akatsuki. 

This would be one Thriller night! 

P.S. It seems this chapter confirms that the big kahuna of monsters this year are the zombies as proven in this chapter!
