*laugh* I can't really blame him at this point for being all 'f*ckit, everybody dies', no. Though I'm cautiously surprised to see him being all thoughtful-introspective this week. I honestly don't know what he's going to do next. And the weird thing is, I do actually have just a little - a very little - interest in what that might turn out to be, where I've never much cared in he past. Y'know? Though it's probably attributable to the fact that he's got Suigetsu and Juugo along for the ride again.
Also, on another note - am I maybe correct in thinking that Shisui's name, being made up of shi and sui, has something to do with death and water and is possibly a reference to the whole drowning thing?
i think in some ways, just Sasuke hearing Itachi tell him he loved him was a catalyst of something. it was almost like absolution for both of them. kind of like the scene with the parents where they were like 'it's ok' and even though it wasn't it kind of was. so yeah, i fully admit my attention is more on Suigetsu and this flirty thing he's doing with Sasuke than actual Sasuke, but yeah, i have some curiousity here. actually, i think Kishimoto's doing that 'back to original plot' thing with Sasuke's story now with Juugo and Suigetsu tossed in to make it more believable instead of Sasuke just pulling the answer out his ass. if nothing else we have SasuSui and Anko may score a boyfriend, what, 10 years her junior?
yes. Shisui does translate to "Death Water". and yes Kishimoto deliberately chose it as foreshadowing for how he'd die.
UchihaBros - they both needed that, clearly, and I'm glad they got it and that it actually was handled pretty well. Will hope that enough of Itachi's words and intentions have sunk in to Sasuke's thick skull to do him some good.
You're probably right re: back to original plot - Sasuke 'feels' very different than he has in awhile, and this thing with Itachi makes a good enough excuse that Kishimoto can probably get away with the disparity. But I'm glad Juugo and Suigetsu are back in the picture, and that they got to Do Something Important in bringing Sasuke whatever info was in that scroll.
and Anko may score a boyfriend, what, 10 years her junior?
Pfft. Yes. Would have to look up Juugo's age, honestly, but yes. ^_^ At the very least, there's some interesting conversations to be had there under non-war circumstances.
yes. Shisui does translate to "Death Water".
\o/ Am disproportionately pleased that I've been able to pick up enough of what things mean to clue in on that.
