Naruto Side Story Review - The Path Shone by the Moon Light

Written by Shiggins

Naruto's final mystery resolved?

When chapter 700 unleashed itself upon the fandom, causing the divide between Haters and Appreciaters, I was one of the few who barely showed any interest in their war because my concern was not over ships. Instead, my worries and confusion went towards the greatest anime villain of them all; Orochimaru. Where did he go? What does he get up to? Why wasn't he the final villain of the series instead of bloody Kaguya?

Not gonna lie. It'd be a nightmare to crawl out of that pit... I mean, it's already terrifying but still. 

However, it's wrong of me to build this up like it's Orochimaru's story. In actuality, this chapter is about Mitsuki. For those of you who don't know, Mitsuki is the mysterious third member of Team Boruto, who stands alongside banana-hair Boruto Uzumaki and surprisingly badass Sarada Uchiha, who first appeared without any real ceremony and never got the credit he was due. It always felt like we were building up to this chapter whenever he made that rare appearance, instead of just telling us his story when we see him. Thankfully, this return by Kishimoto is beautiful... if you're a sadist.

I still have no idea what the limitations of technology is in this world. Are there phones? Ipads? Sex toys? Can I play Ratchet and Clank in this world? They have computers already, so there must be some of those things!

The boy Mitsuki wakes up in a lab, confused and groggy. The mad scientist Orochimaru steps over and gives Mitsuki a drink, which apparently is disgusting and causes the cup to fall and break. Orochimaru then takes his leave and asks his assistant Suigetsu to escort Mitsuki to his room later. Mitsuki then asks Suigetsu who he is, to which Suigetsu remarks how this is the 6th time and tells Mitsuki that he failed a mission with Orochimaru, before attacking Mitsuki himself with a kunai.

Holy crap! Luffy just took an interesting tu... oh. Damn.

Mitsuki demonstrates the power of stretching to defend himself, and Suigetsu explains that Mitsuki lost his memories to an enemy, so Suigetsu had to make sure he was still able to fight. So the two go into the room where Orochimaru is, who tells Mitsuki that he is Orochimaru's child and he cares deeply for him, hence why they are going to get his memories back from an armoured ninja they named "Log".

Oooh Orochimaru! Now THAT is the one I love! Oh, how I've missed you!

Rightfully confused, Mitsuki asks for more information. Orochimaru tried to steal Log's backlog of memories he stole from other ninja, hence Log retaliating by stealing the memories. As Mitsuki doubts his abilities, Orochimaru says he is special and repeats how Mitsuki is precious to him. So now they have a mission; To find Log and get Mitsuki's memories back from him!

So with their armour on and Orochimaru's hair up, giving him his most feminine look yet, and they come to a barrier. Mitsuki is told he has the power to break it, and Orochimaru tells him how to use it off-panel while Log senses their arrival. So the two run off to confront Log, and the battle begins between Orochimaru and Log. Log's armour provides defence against Orochimaru's snakes to defend against his poison attacks, and Log's ninjutsu seems to hold Orochimaru in shadows.

That is entrapment, asshole!

Orochimaru's last words about "Sage Power" resonates within Mitsuki, and just as Log is about to finish off Mitsuki, he is stunned. A tiny snake of Orochimaru had managed to slither inside the armour and had now paralysed him. Orochimaru then gets up and goes inside, while Mitsuki is to stand guard over Log. Log, claiming to feel suffocated by the mask, asks Mitsuki to remove it. He also claims that Orochimaru is the one deceiving him, and the mask is removed to reveal...

*gasp* Old man Mitsuki!

Yes, it's an older Mitsuki from years ago! Both of them are synthetic humans made from science things and such! Older Mitsuki, OM, says that Orochimaru is seeking the embryo from which each of them were created, and Mitsuki is confused as to why OM would want to destroy it. OM tells him that humans made from this embryo are not real humans and is against nature. Orochimaru only seeks his own convenience, so he'll keep creating humans like Mitsuki and OM for as long as he likes.

This is when Orochimaru returns, claiming to still love them both from the bottom of his heart, and Orochimaru begins to justify his fucked-up behaviour by "doing it out of love", to which OM is understandably angry. OM then turns to Mitsuki, begging him to defeat Orochimaru here and now. Orochimaru says to ignore him, and he has the embryo so he plans to make more "siblings" for him. God damn, I love you Orochimaru! Speaking of things to love, Mitsuki reacts!

....Am I in heaven?

Mitsuki has had enough, activating his gorgeous Sage Mode and deciding to make the decision for himself. Suddenly, Mitsuki rushes forward and steals the embryo, the key to the case for it, and he leaps off by himself. Orochimaru stands in awe as OM suddenly moves and lights a cigarette, which is something disgusting and only bad people do!

Orochimaru tells OM that he put "a picture of the sun" inside that case, and it turns out that Orochimaru and OM have been working together six times to create a Mitsuki that has free will and makes his own decisions. Orochimaru just hopes he won't have to erase Mitsuki's memories a 7th time. The "sun picture" is Boruto apparently, presumably with other kids from the village, and both Orochimaru and OM wonder what Mitsuki's future could be as they talk about the light in the darkness and... they lost me a bit at the end but then Mitsuki names himself and we end and wow!

This image couldn't be more Batman if it tried.

Opinion: OROCHIMARU IS BEST GIRL!

I mean villain! Sorry... Got carried away but what a good chapter! Madara and Obito (spoiler alert: Tobi was Obito) and the Akatsuki are all good, but I will always have a special place in my heart for Orochimaru. This chapter fully embraces his sadistic methods, his manipulative skills and his love for experimentation. To see a villain go to such lengths "to see what happens" is far more unique than trying to take over the world. And unlike when Orochimaru suddenly decided to turn good, the "see what happens" decision has opened up tons of possibilities, while also letting Orochimaru keep the personality he always should have had.

Mitsuki is a very interesting character as well. He manages to be endearing during such an event by not whining all the time and asking legitimate questions that we, the reader, want to know. He's not angsty or unsympathetic, and we don't have to handle him going into pure emotional cringe-worthy complaining and false justification like Sasuke did. Mitsuki's decisions make sense, and that makes him far more relatable. Just like Orochimaru, I want to see what he does next.

....I guess this makes sense in a manga sense, but I'm still sitting here utterly clueless.

However, this does bring me to the major problem with this chapter. Which is simply this; Why does it even exist? Developing Mitsuki under Orochimaru's science is fantastic and this chapter kept me guessing all the way throughout. When Mitsuki transformed into Sage Mode, I flipped out because that's beautiful, but why even bother showing us it? If this was say, Dragon Ball Super, we know we'd be continuing the story so we could see more of it and watch it develop.

The thing is, Kishimoto isn't writing the manga anymore. The anime itself hasn't even gotten to Kaguya yet, so if there's a future anime planned by Kishimoto that will be 100% filler claiming to be canon, then this one-shot is far too early for that. Or is this a set-up for an upcoming Boruto movie sequel? I haven't seen any official news yet... or is this meant to excite me and make me read the butt-ugly upcoming manga of Boruto with some of the most painful artwork I've ever seen in a manga? If it's that last one, then I'm really not amused because I still haven't decided if I'm going to check it out yet, and I don't want to go from the gorgeous Kishimoto style to the ugly style in the hopes that we might be talking about Mitsuki in there.

I can't throw up enough at the preview images of Naruto and Sasuke.

There are other quibbles as well. Why is Suigetsu working for Orochimaru in the first place? I would have thought he'd run away as soon as possible, considering how he used to behave around the snakeman. Where are Karin and Jugo? We can assume the Sage Mode DNA inside Mitsuki is related to either Jugo or Kabuto (when Orochimaru drained chakra from him during the war) but we know Karin choose to continue working for Orochimaru too, so this big question still looms over the chapter.

Taken as a singular chapter, this was amazing and instantly wonderful. However, in the grand scheme of things, my opinion begins to deflate under all the unanswered questions and possibility of an unanswered future. I can confirm though that if Kishimoto went back to writing another official series based on this increasingly interesting generation, with Mitsuki and Sarada in lead roles, this chapter would remind me to definitely check it out.

Manga Rating: 4/5

Best Part: Orochimaru finally returns to his glorious roots.

Worst Part: Lack of continuation.

...Why am I blushing all of a sudden?
