Chapter 463 - Sasuke vs. Raikage!!
The extreme gets even more extreme, as Sasuke and Raikage clash head-on, striking at each other with Lightning StyIe attacks. When Raikage unleashes one of his most powerful physical attacks on Sasuke, the Raiger Bomb, it looks like Sasuke is done for, but he protects himself by unleashing his Mangekyo Sharingan. Upon seeing this, Raikage increases his chakras even more, on which Karin comments has reached Tailed Beast level.
Meanwhile, Naruto, Kakashi, and Yamato's meeting with Madara continues. Madara states that Naruto will have to fight Sasuke eventually, or rather, he'll do his best to make him do so. When Kakashi asks him why he is after the Tailed Beasts, Madara only says that it is to become complete; then disappears.
The intense battle reaches a whole new level as Sasuke attacks with Amatarasu. Raikage manages to dodge the first blow, but his rage gets the better of him and he sacrifices his left arm to Sasuke's Amatarasu barrier to strike a devastating blow. He then prepares to finish Sasuke off once and for all...
Not much to say about this chapter; only that it was total awesomeness and the battle has really gotten intense. I've definitely added it to my list of battles I can't wait to be animated.:D

Chapter 373 - Wolves Ain't Howl Alone
Stark unleashes what seem to be a bunch of wolf-like creatures, which immediately go on the offensive. Love and Rose both Hollowfy, and Rose releases his zanpakuto, Kinshara, in order to defend themselves. After a while of fighting, they soon find out that the wolf creatures are actually Ceros which can move freely and explode whenever they want. Stark then reveals, however, that they're actually part of his and Lilinette's soul, and this is their power; the power of Coyote Stark and Lilinette Gingerback, the Primera Espada. Just when Stark prepares to finish Love and Rose off, however, he gets stabbed from behind...
Awesome chapter, as we get to to see more of the Primera Espada's power. And it's a cliffhanger ending as Stark gets stabbed by an unknown someone...!

Pokemon Dub Episode Update
DP124 - To Thine Own Pokemon Be True!
The Pokemon Ping-Pong Tournament is close at hand, and Ash and Barry are psyched and ready to rumble. Dawn asks how the game works, and when Barry explains, she decides to enter as well, with Ambipom. While the trio are practicing, Ambipom whacks a flaming ping-pong into the hand of the current champion, O, who marvels at its display of natural talent. The tournament soon gets underway. While both Dawn and Barry make it to the next round, Ash is defeated, and "Jessilinlin" is disqualified after Meowth uses a Fury Swipes to slice the ping-pong ball in three.
O continues to be amazed at Ambipom's ping-pong skills as it and Dawn breeze through the next several rounds. Barry also makes it pretty far, but is ultimately defeated by O and his Shiftry, who then defeat Dawn and Ambipom.
After the tournament, O makes an offer to Dawn to take Ambipom with him so that he can train it to become a Ping-Pong Champion. Dawn turns down the offer at first, but when she finds Ambipom happily playing ping-pong by itself late at night, she wonders if she made the right choice. The next morning, Dawn lets Ambipom make the decision, and asks it if it would rather stay with her and continue to compete in Pokemon Contests, or go with O and be trained to become a Ping-Pong Champion. After several moments, Ambipom decides that its choice is Ping-Pong. O says that they can come and visit anytime at Vermilion City in Kanto, and after a farewell, he and Ambipom set off...
It seems pretty obvious that the writers created Pokemon Ping-Pong just to get rid of Ambipom. Not only that, Ash and comp. didn't gain anything from this experience; they only lost Ambipom. The episode did have its moments, particularly after the tournament was over, but I'll miss the two-tailed ape.:(

Naruto Shippuden Episode 126 - Twilight
After Sasuke finishes resting up, he and the rest of Team Hebi continue in their quest to track down Itachi. Kakashi and the others continue to search for Sasuke, and when Naruto senses him nearby, he rushes off on his own. He instead has an encounter with Itachi himself, however, who claims that he only wants to talk.
Back in the Hidden Leaf Village, Jiraiya reports in to Tsunade and states that he has discovered the whereabouts of the Akatsuki leader. Tsunade demands that he spill it right away, but Jiraiya bribes her to come have a drink with him and discuss it there. He says that Akatsuki's leader is apparently holed up in the Hidden Rain Village, a village that is divided in two over conflict, and also says that he's the leader of one of the two sides. That evening, Jiraiya brings up Naruto's mother and father, Kushina Uzumakiand Minato Namikaze. After some talk about them, he tells Jiraiya that he has to track down the Akatsuki leader. So after a long farewell, Jiraiya sets off...
Pretty good episode, as the encounter between Naruto and Itachi is finally shown. And now that Jiraiya has left for the Rain Village, things are bound to get even more interesting.
