Seeing Yahiko's face on one of Pain's bodies was genuinely jarring for me, and you could just feel Jiraiya's crushing despair realizing his old student became this monstrous enemy. Pain’s chilling speech about the cycle of hatred made me seriously wonder if there’s any escaping that kind of endless suffering in their world.

Pain, announcing himself as a god while parading around in Yahiko's actual body, just made me feel so queasy; I just can't get over how heartbreaking it must be for Jiraiya, seeing everything he tried to instill in those kids twisted into this horror. It feels like all his hopes for their future, which he poured his entire being into, just completely shattered right before his eyes.

I'm really freaked out by how calm Jiraiya is, even when he's talking about the Nine-Tails and Minato. It's like he's trying to be stoic for Naruto, but I can't help but feel he's already accepted his fate, which just breaks my heart knowing how much Naruto looks up to him.
