I would be careful when managing Mebuki as a character, this chapter rode the line between “tough love” and unnecessary. She gave up being a kunoichi to be a mom so obviously love is a big part of her life. If she gets too extreme at this point it will only serve to annoy readers. Or atleast it will annoy me, can’t speak for everyone. Good chapter though just keep that in mind going forward though. The situation could remain the same but the way you wrote the character came off as unnecessary.
I like this chapter I read the comments after reading the chapter and I know some people said this was a little bit abusive. Sakura's mom was concerned ruthless yes wasn't necessary yes because this version of sakura man or a girl she has never been in a real fight yet, what do you want Sakura to fight someone that requires her to put her life down on the line? or put her in a scenario where her mom can dictate what happens in step in when she deems it necessary? and if you're going to be more real about it this is the same thing Kakashi did with Team 7 for the wave Ark the only difference is Kakashi faked his death when the Trap was sprung convincing team 7 that he was killed then watched in the trees as team 7 try to fight the assassinated Brothers by themselves and they knew nothing the only person that reacted somewhat was Sasuke, Naruto froze, Sakura ran in front of the Builder, and Sasuke was only one to engage and that wasn't enough and Kakashi came out of nowhere and killed them or at least capacitated them and tied them against a tree so what. Sakura's mom did in this chapter was no different the only difference was she was more realistic about what she was doing and she was more upfront about what she was doing that's It, But that's just my opinion.
