I like doing these on Saturday.
Summary Time: Chapter 3. Kakashi's Sacred Place...how often does he come to these hot-springs?
Cover page is three panels of main cast each posing.
Mirai stands guard outside a building wondering why there are so many young couples visiting the hot-springs resort, because they're on a romantic vacation obviously. She hears a noise and enters; Kakashi and Gai are playing a carnival game with throwing kunia. When they leave Kakashi is almost pickpocketed but captures them and ask Mirai to get the guards to arrest the pickpocket. But he had a partner that Mirai has to chase down, she uses genjutsu to capture him...the same attacking tree to capture someone that Kurenia used against Itachi and she used in chapter one; can they show off a different genjutsu? The genjutsu was passed down since the time of the First Hokage, and her mother taught her it. She does a scary face to the pickpocket. then returns the pouch to Kakashi. It was a fake wallet. She castes him about being too lax but he points out that the situations haven't required him to get serious. While mulling over how unserious Kakashi is, he and Guy continue to enjoy himself.
...Ah that is the scared place. He and Guy both shed tears over the fact that they found a tree that was in a major scene of Make Out Paradise. Kakashi has apparently love that book since he was a kid. She spends a lot of time mulling stuff over and over thinking things. She asks if she should read the book since people seem to like it so much, and they embarrassingly yells she is too young. Guy gives her his own workout book instead, which Lee is a big fan of. She eventually wonders while watching more of their antics if her father would have been apart of this if he was alive. Guy wants them all to do his workout routine at the inn. Kakashi question if that would be a waste since it would distract them from enjoying the hot springs. Guy says it not every day they get to go to a hot springs...don't they have hot springs in the Village?
Guy mentions that its rare that Kakashi is allowed to go out like this, since he normally guarded in the village, and only gets to go on these vacations if he says its a mission. Mirai has an attack on her self-esteem because she feels Naruto sent her on a Snipe Hunt, which means she wasn't good enough to guard him during the Kage Summit.
8/10. The Self doubt and mulling over stuff is fine but will likely get old after a while. I didn't find Guy and Kakashi antics that funny. But overall this was a decent light chapter.
