Naruto 132-134

132:

1) Naruto chibi flashback angst makes me cry. Always.
2) OMFG.
3) Kakashi, you suck! So much!

133:

1) OMFG! OMFG!
2) Did...uh...did he break his neck?
2) Who knew Kyuubi was a flying fox?
3) Stage Two does not look good on Sasuke. It looks butt-ugly.

134:

1) HOLY SHIT.
2) ::cries like a baby::
3) Okay, I hate Sasuke somewhat less. Not trying to kill Naruto is a good step. He still needs to get off the revenge kick, and he's still an ass for what he's doing, but I appreciate that he's chosen not to murder his best friend in the process.
4) Kakashi, you still suck. But at least you have the grace to realize it.

Next up--everybody angsts like whoa. I'd like to state for the record that if Sakura spends more time wangsting about Sasuke than about Naruto getting the shit beaten out of him--not to mention everybody else getting injured/killed--I will strangle her with her own forehead protector.

Does anybody know where I'd need to start in the manga to pick up after 134?

I think Sasuke is the example of the one who just doesn't make it. Gaara and Naruto manage to muddle through, but somehow I don't think that Sasuke will.

I'm seriously beginning to wonder. I don't think Sasuke's story has to end tragically--not yet--but if it does, nobody can say that it wasn't laid out well in advance.

These people, they all need therapy. It's not quite as bad as Neon Genesis "no one in this show will ever make a meaningful connection with another human being" Evangelion, but sometimes I'm amazed at how much rope they give the kids to hang themselves. And no one ever tells the genins anything.
