Naruto Chapter 591 - Risk - Review / Thoughts

So, Naruto chapter 591 was a mixture of badass and emotional. We see more of Madara and what becomes of him, plus a reunion between Dan and Tsunade for the more emotional aspect, but how was the chapter as a whole?

Let me start by saying that they also resolved the Sasuke and Itachi thing, with a quick shot at the start of the chapter with Itachi disappearing, as well as the other Edo Tensei summons.

More importantly, Dan finally got to be of some use which was good to see. I don't have strong feelings about his character either way, but it was good to see there was an actual reason for him being summoned rather than Kishi doing it for no reason whatsoever. He of course saves Tsunade from Madara, and the reunion was nicely done and was a bit emotional.

The best part of the chapter was for me (you guessed it) Madara Uchiha. I am sooooo glad he is staying around, he has been the most interesting part of Naruto for ages, so I am thankful Kishi has decided to let his reign of terror continue. A lot of fans did speculate that he would find a way of breaking free from Edo Tensei, and I wouldn't be surprised (nor blame anyone) if they got mad over an Uchiha just ignoring the rules / using hax again to get away with something most characters couldn't.

I am of course very happy to see him stick around, and I can't even imagine what it's going to take to defeat someone as ridiculously strong as him, especially now as he has all the benefits of Edo Tensei but with none of the flaws it brings.

Naruto is going to be very interesting from here on out, as now we have a near invincible Madara raising havoc, Tobi is still off dealing with Naruto, and we are still yet to see what Suigetsu's scroll will do or indeed what role Sasuke will play in the war now Itachi is gone.

Overall this was a pretty enjoyable chapter, as it had a good mix of badass (with Madara) and emotion (with Tsunade and Dan).
