Naruto Chapter 624: Build Up Towards The End Of Flashback

Comments:
It's great to see that this flashback, as it really didn't meet my expectations, got pretty quick change of pace in this chapter where there was covered all the years between Hashiramas and Madaras childhood and the moment where the war is nearing its end.


I'm however uncertain that what will be the outcome of this certain proposition by Madara in which he wants Hashirama to either kill himself or his brother Tobirama. What we already know is that no one of those three dies here so it's somewhat a weird end for the chapter. I'd say that it somewhat gave me mixed feelings since it wasn't a cliffhanger per se, but I'm still interested in seeing in what kind of decision Hashirama and Tobirama will end up with.

In the end this chapter was a necessary bad, as it really didn't bring up anything that we didn't already know of, but still what I mean by necessary is that there has to be some chapters that bring continuation between the "goodies".

Still waiting for the actual reason why we are being shown this flashback - apart from couple of  "new" characters introduced I don't think we've seen anything which we haven't heard about before in Naruto. Sasuke wanted to know what is the village (and why his brother Itachi risked his life to protect it) so that he could decide whether to take revenge on Konoha, but after this week I'm starting to doubt if there's even coming any kind of good revelation. This whole flashback has turned out to be a bit too plain in my opinion, but I've still no given up the hope for something good to happen.

Recap of Naruto Chapter 624: Aiko

-So Uchiha and Senju clans clash at the beginning - Hashirama and Madara come into conclusion that it's useless to chase after the dream they had.

-As it's now revealed to Madara that Hashirama is in fact Senju, he decides that next time when they meet on the battlefield he's going to go all out. After saying that Uchiha Madara awakens his Sharingan.

-Over the years to come the Uchiha and Senju fight against each other, but Hashirama still tries to convince Madara to stop the fighting.

-Soon Madara acquired the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which he got from his brother who died earlier. We are then shown Madara using his Susanoo for the first time.

-At the end of the chapter Hashirama tries to convince Madara for the last time to stop and straighten things out. Madara wants Hashirama to either kill himself or his brother Tobirama and only then will he trust the Senjus.
