It was an alright chapter. It definetly shows that Naruto can use his head a bit more, since he knew he was in a genjutsu rather than continue to fight against fake Itachi's. We also saw the thoughts that have been haunting Naruto since his fight with Sasuke and probably his greatest motivation during his years of training.
Thought it was cool to see a training part with Jiraya, who I doubt uses genjutsu's either and so would have also trained more to break out of them then use them.
With the supposed Rice Field Country filler episodes coming up, the fact that they showed Naruto and Jiraya in a boat in some village could make those episodes work, since we now see that indeed the two had travelled to other villages rather than just stay in the mountains for almost three years.
I wouldn't say Kakashi got all the fame, I would give it to Sakura and the old lady. In the time it took Kakashi to attack Itachi and rebound back for another one, they noticed that Naruto had been trapped by Itachi and couldn't break free. That shows again how Sakura has grown, since she was usually a little slow on the uptake in the past.
I'm also interested in Itachi's comment on not being able to use Mangekyou (spelling?) Sharingan when he caught Naruto. It has something to do with what Kakashi said, or because he was fighting Kakashi. Maybe it will be explained in the next few chapters.
