What do you think about pausing SC training after Sealing 50 or 59 to go full throttle on Necromancy + fixing the Great Seal?

I'm not opposed to it, though it'll depend on where we're at at the time.
Current Ping Pong Table (for those losing track):
- Minato Chain
- Chakdar 2.0
- Neck/Squirrel Scroll
- Dragons/Archeopteryx
- Genin Teams

I don't mind having lots of off-screen or fiddly details to figure out in a plan. This seems fine to me.
Kei is not physically in the clan building, so Hazō cannot ask her in <5 minutes.
What would this even mean? SSA means you can pretty much only research one seal at a time.

You should ask these questions in character. They're good scene material, especially the middle one.

@RandomOTP Do you want to add another scene to your plan?

Is the Great Seal in this, or is that absorbed into the Dragons?
I think that we can tackle all of this...reasonably expediently. Hazo can finish chakdar 2.0 (it's at least partially done) and then work at the Minato chain. Mari and Noburi and some backup (don't really need Akane/Yuno) can pursue the Squirrel scroll. Akane and Yuno can pick up genin teams. With the Dragons/Condors/Archeopteryx, we can start maneuvering and plotting. (I'm not very personally invested in visiting the island again soon.) Once we're on the Minato chain we're credibly working on the Great Seal - we can also be raising Earthshaping while we're doing it.

@RandomOTP I realize that the inclusion of these elements would make our plans functionally identical but feel free to crib some of my misc. questions for yours - I think there's value in the answers and you have the wordcount.
(My plan was originally a fork-ish of yours, in my defense.)
I'm specifically interested in finding out if the KEI are blowing us off - 'we're having issues making physical tickets' sounds suspect to me, and if it isn't, then we're basically the ideal person to help (other than being a clan and therefore somewhat partisan).
I'd also love to see the list of folks we could introduce to Harumitsu expand. Can you imagine him meeting Honoka? Comedy and cutesy gold. No, this is better than that. It's comedy and cutesy chakra metal.

Idle thought. It's been reflected within the narrative that Hazou is a bit of a mad scientist. I wonder if the Goketsu Clan has protocols in place to keep Hazou from brainstorming up ideas with his shadow clones? For instance, Ino just happens to stroll by and wink at him (thus blue-screening Hazou's brain), and all the Hazou's immediately forget what they were talking about.
It would mean not using SSA. 15 training blocks rounds up to 5 no prep research rolls every day. 20 days to rush the Do it Live sealing stunt. Two extra shifts on no prep rolls means any TNs that can be safely hit take no longer than TN divided by 3 days to finish. Dedicate one research stream to poking at how to make SSA work in parallel.

We do still need to test whether ritual sacrifices to Jashin work...
Leaf promised to keep Mari off the mission roster in return for sky stuff. Asuma would probably be fine with Mari not teaching genin if she doesn't want to
Edit: even if Mari wants to teach genin. We could bring up that Mari is relinquishing herself of that right this time, from her own good will

She gave it up when she learned SC. That ship sailed.

Mari has also been doing missions since then, there's been an entire world war, and Goketsu's credibility has been all over the place since then. What Leaf agreed to before Asuma was in charge counts for not very much.
More importantly, I think you're looking at it wrong. Do you know how much good manipulation our social spec Jonin can do with a given team of genin? Like, positive PR for us with whatever power blocks they are from, discovering some internal state of affairs info, etc. Plus, Mari taking missions that will mostly keep her safe isn't terrible.
