One Piece 727: a bit of backstory slightly awkwardly inserted, this chapter nonetheless had a satisfyingly devious idea behind it, and a series of shadowy figures to make us curious. Not a great chapter, but fairly interesting.

Naruto 654: that really had better not be it. If the way this crisis was averted was for Naruto to have a vague chat with the bad guy, induce a flashback, basically said ‘That little dead girl you used to like would be so disappointed in you’ and then everyone worked together on a big tug of war, it will truly be the low point of Naruto. Madara, you better have something decent to follow this crap up with.
