Spoilers, naturally. If you don't read the manga, read this at your own peril.
Heliomance, this means YOU!
While certainly there were numerous... parts in that chapter that either sought to be redundant(like Evil Sasuke(who is evil) evilly being evil and evilly doing evil acts of EVIL) or made little sense, there's one thing that stands out above them all, since it contradicts something from WAAAAAAY back when Sasuke actually behaved normally (yeah, it was THAT long ago.)
Mizukage has a Bloodline Limit.
And not just any Bloodline Limit, but the Yoton, the Lava Element, which is fairly blatantly fire/earth. Mind you, she did spit said lava, so maybe we'll get some bullshit explanation about how it's actually water/fire or something equally inane. That's the not the problem, though. Personally, I think it's a good idea to give the characters elements which aren't what you'd expect based on their country of origin. Giving them something other than lightning for Kumo-nin, earth for Iwa-nin, water for Kiri-nin, etc.
No, that's not the problem.
The problem is that it was explicitly stated in not one, but TWO character origin stories that Kirigakure hated Bloodline Limits. In fact, it was quite a big part of those characters' development: Had Kiri NOT borne such antipathy towards Bloodlines, these two would not have been subjected the spirit-crushing persecution they experienced as young children.
In case you don't remember, I'm talking about Haku(and hes infinitely confusing gender. The flame wars still rage over hir to this day) and Orochimaru's previous willing bitch, Kimimaro.
So, we have a person with a Bloodline Limit both in charge of and apparently well-liked by a village which has been stated to hate Bloodline users. I can think of three words to apply to this situation, and there's not a W or an F anywhere in sight.
So, like the Mood icon says, I'm not impressed with Mstr. Kishimoto. Not unless he can come up with a good explanation for why Ms. Smoking-Hot-Christmas-Cake is running Kirigakure.
Based on the events of this chapter, I don't think that's going to happen.
...Gabzillaz' MST of this chapter was good, though, like always.

Updates
So I have no idea if anyone even pays attention to this account anymore, but what the heck.
So! Updates. Well, first things first, I suppose:
FALSE MEMORIES IS NOT DEAD
*ahem*
Ch13 is on the way, as is more of the Straight Run (if anyone cares), but in the meantime, I figured I might as well share what tangents my brain deviates onto when it should be focusing on more relevant things.

:iconreldencalder::iconsaysplz::iconfacepalmplz:
Anyway, yeah, plotbunnies. Here's a list and brief descriptio
Chapter 12
It's up on my Fanfiction.net account.
Here's the link to the chapter if you don't already know where that is.
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7364874/12/False-Memories
Merry Christmas, everyone, and oh, before I forget:
Chapter TEN
So, this took too long, even for me. The reason for this is that I have a lot of crap to take care of at the moment, and I have a very bad habit when I have too much to do - I get started on one thing, worry about the others, stop what I'm doing without getting anything done, start on something else and then it happens all over again and I ultimately accomplish nothing.
So, I respectfully ask those of you still here to be patient with me, and I once again apologise for the brevity of this chapter.
The next one will NOT take so long to write and WILL have more words.
NaNoWriMo
...or, for those of you who, like me, have never heard of this before, National Novel Writing Month.
Apparently it's been going on since 2001 and this is the first I've ever heard of it.
(Why does it always feel like I'm the last to know these things?)
The challenge is to write 50000 words in one month, and you know what?
I've signed up.
I'll be taking this challenge and trying to fulfil it with chapters of False Memories.
If I pull it off, expect to see about five or six new chapters this month alone.
If not, well...

EDIT(07/02/2012): Should be obvious by this point, but I did not complete NaNoWriMo.

actually youton (at least spelled 溶遁; which IS incidentally how its spelled in the manga) means melting, dissolving or fluid element as well as liquid (as in the scientifically recognised state of matter), not lava except in the context of rock in its liqud state.
