haha...maybe the education thing is a good idea...but im afraid i dont really care about that...i will figure people out by experiance
in any case i feel that the akatsuki arc may take place after a time jump. most of the main characters will not stand a chance against the akatsuki as they are
naruto and all his comrades will be wiped out in a swift blow...plus we need time for sasuke to become familar with the curse seal
as you saw in 219 he doesnt have complete control over it
