pretty good ep if you ignore all the flash backs and key word nonsense
ZOMG! Damn you flaskback hell why do you Haunt me so!!!!
Why do you make me go surf the net while the damn flashback is on and wait till you hear something different new and then have to be slammed back to watching the episode!
Damn you flackback twice over!
That first movie-quality episode was a great jumpstart for the series, but man. Really kills the suspense for a duplicate episode. That was the coolest sword extraction ever, though. I don't think Yamato has to worry too much about splinters.
I disagree with it all. Pathetic. The past half of Shippuuden have been a disgrace to the series really. Flashbacks, Naruto calling out "Sasuke" and crying, endless staredowns, and instant growth spurt of "stronger than the me of 5 second ago" after watching the same 5 seconds of fighting for 5 hours... oh and lets not forget the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, Rasengan, oh **** I missed combo that plagues almost every fight scene.
Next episode in two weeks is supposed to be an hour long special too. What was it, Leaf Sprouts? For all the time I spend watching months of Naruto that could be cut into 2 or 3 episodes without losing any storyline, I could see a leaf actually sprout from my plant outside...
The Naruto producers should be banned from life.
Yeah. The first half of this special seriously made me want to kill myself. And I wasn't bothered by the last "staring contest special". I think this one was made worse by the fact that I'd already seen it. I really didn't need that 1cm/second camera crawl up Sasuke's body when they finally revealed him.
That said, once Sasuke started actually, you know, moving, it was awesome. Fucking Chidori sword, seriously pimp. And the stuff with Kyuubi was badass even though it was old.
Preview Spoiler:
I actually watched the preview this week on a whim and the goddamn PREVIEW was shots of Naruto and Sasuke staring back and forth. I'm starting to hate Naruto specials because they easily fit into a normal episode if you cut out the staring. And its like BECAUSE is a special they add 15 more minutes of stares.
your forgetting about the spot on "wind blowing" when something dramatic is about to be said
FUCKING RETARDED EPISODE THAT SUCKED BALLS!!!
Yeah that pretty much sums it up. What, want me to be more specific? Sure.
1 - 45 minutes of show for 1 chidori sword and a full body chidori as the whole action
2 - About 30 minutes of it was previosly seen footage
3 - The sasuke ownage was just pityfull, now even yamato and sai suck as hell
4 - FUCKING STARE CONTESTS
5 - We now know that sasuke can nulify the kyubi's chakra, what pretty much mean that naruto doesnt stand a chance in hell of beating sasuke
6 - Next episode looks even shitier than this one
7 - The flashbacks that came from hell to terrorize us once again
7 - FUCKING STARE CONTESTS
Ahh that feels so much better now. Really if it wasnt for this forum id would have killed myself about 3 or 4 episodes ago.
Btw the formula for a naruto special is: normal episode + staring contest + flashback hell
wtf i can't believe that some people truely think that this episode was good (or even partly good)... absolutely NOTHING happened until the point when Sai stopped sasukes first attack
lets see.. 40 mins were totally boring and unimportant while 5 minutes were actually good
but these 5 minutes were interrupted by so much shit between that it was like: 5 seconds pure ownage followed by 5 minutes full of shit, then 10 seconds pure ownage, followed by 4 minutes full of shit and so on..
to sum this up i NEVER was so disappointed before... especially because it was a SPECIAL wtf? ya it was special indeed... it never sucked so hard before.
only one scene was worth watching
btw thats what i meant when i was talking about "naruto needs more weapon users"
gj sasuke!
ah and good job with the body shot... it took a WHOLE MINUTE (15:10 to 16:10) to show his entire body
WHAT
THE
FUCK?
just a side note: this episode had around 15 minutes full of flashbacks and another 10 minutes full of staring and "cool body shots"
another 15 minutes full of talking about things we alrdy knew and 5 minutes of interessting stuff
At this point im not even looking forward to the next episode if its more of this. We learned 2 new things in this ep.
1) Sai isn't a total douche.
2) Team Kakashi is fucked.
Without the use of his kyuubi I don't see any logical way for Naruto to "win"....logical....but thats what narutos good at, doing exactly what you think they won't do. For better or worse.
Don't forget frequent intermissions for special passwords.Quote:

I've come to the conclusion that Jiraiya must be the worst teacher of all time. I'm not convinced Naruto could even pass the Chuunin exam if he took it now. In the 3 year time jump Sakura, and now even more so Sasuke, improved leaps and bounds in terms of ninja skills. Naruto on the other hand seems to have remained mostly the same. I think the guy's landed more punches on his team mates this season than he has on his enemies. I honestly like Naruto's character, but god i'm tired of seeing him suck as a ninja. Here's to hoping that after epically failing to bring back Sasuke AGAIN, he'll go get some real training and actually kick some ass like he started to at the end of the pre-time skip series.
Also all the cool points Sai collected over the past episodes have been completely lost.He might get them back if he starts calling Naruto a pussy again, but it's doubtful.
I have a summary of every Naruto fight scene since the start of the arc:
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
Rasengan
OOPS MISSED
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
I'll never know til I try!
OOPS GETTING MY ASS KICKED
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
AWW FUCK IT DIDN'T WORK!
And then scream at the end:
SASUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The flashbacks in this one were so painful. They basically took every single part of the Sasuke vs. Naruto fight episode that wasn't kickass fighting, and replayed it.
I'm glad Sasuke has suppressed the Kyuubi, because now its Make or Break time for this series.
If Naruto doesn't pull off some shit here, I think I'm basically going to stop caring about the show.

Again seems to be silliest thing Sakura is going to charge a man wielding a large sword with simply her fists, instead of punching the ground out of range of the large sword to off balance the man with the large sword. Once again Sakura comes to a fight underprepared lacking the skills needed to actually be effective. It could have been a really good moment to show that Sakura is actually useful again, since Naruto and Sai were both on the ground. They showed Sai had one good move by blocking a simple attack. They just did not expound upon it.
Edit: I mean they showed Sasuke with new tactics/ability, why not give Sakura some new showcase skill for one brief moment.
Again it feels like I could write a better episode then they can. Thats how much disgust I have for the series when you feel like that.
Will you join me in considering going for the naruto manga? Its like 100 chapters ahead and i heard some intense shit happens. Actually, ive been told of some freakin huge spoilers... so im seriously thinking of going for it.Quote:

lol has anyone noticed that we wont have any anime for a whole week? Naruto will only come in the 3 and bleach on the 9
It was a little anti-climatic when they went into the "special letter" thing at every moment when there was the slightest bit of suspense.
There's probably about good 5 minutes in the entire episode. Lame.
Sasuke is freakin' badass!
Maybe you should try watching more anime than Naruto and Bleach, you might find something that is actually satisfying AND you'll definately have some anime to watch every week.Quote:

Anime is supposed to add more cool stuff that the manga didn't show, not add flashbacks to scenes that were also in the manga and mimic reading a manga page by showing still shots and paning.
But hey, it's not like we should expect anything more from Shippuuden at this point, I think they've made their point pretty clearly that this is what Naruto's anime is going to be. until it gets cancelled.
Yes for anyone who isn't DarthEnder, I would recommend the manga, its leaps and bounds better than the anime even if its for the simple fact that flashbacks usually take no more than one page or a few panels and there is the bonus of never having to hear Naruto's voice. Plus you don't have to deal with all the filler stuff they inject into every episode basically besides the built in stuff like Naruto's stupidity and Sakura's lack of battle skills everything else you guys complain about is gone.
Anyway to get back on topic, to the people who ask what Jiraiya has been doing with Naruto all these years the answer is simple. As we've seen before Naruto is not easy to teach and since everyone agrees that he is a no talent hack all Jiraiya has been interested in was teaching him how to use more of the Kyuubi, which is probably the most significant reason why Naruto can now go four tails.
From Jiraiya's previous attempts at teaching Naruto (summoning+rasengan) its obvious that Jiraiya doesn't have much patience for teaching him actual techniques although he did teach him to use Odama rasengan. Anyway my point is that Jiraiya is interested in teaching Naruto to use and control the Kyuubi, which at this point is not only Naruto's greatest asset but seemingly his only one, interesting that Sasuke completely negates that. Its not like Jiraiya can't teach because there is that other yellow haired student of his.
I also wanted to mention that just in the little bits we've seen from the two of them, the difference between Naruto and Sasuke's advancement is miles apart.
When you compare their two signature attacks that used to be evenly powered.
In two years, Naruto has learned to make his Rasengan a few inches wider.
In two years, Sasuke has learned to emit his Chidori from his entire body and how to channel it through his fucking sword.

even though... i start to hate this show, isn't it kinda amazing how they destroy any kind of tension in the fights because of the staring etc?
i never thought that naruto would become a western...
i think this special would have been awesome if it was a single episode.. toooo bad that japanese don't realise the potential of the series and form it to something like pokemon or yu-gi-oh..
And yet, Naruto still isn't possible to make a rasengan on his own... That's quite pathetic.Quote:

When have you ever seen Naruto make a rasengan with one hand sure he has tried but for whatever reason they have all been unsuccessful because this
just doesn't make any sense. If you can do it with one hand then why expend 50% of your chakra just to make 1 rasengan, answer is simple he can't do it with one hand. The only time I've seen him do it with one hand was when fighting Sasuke and that was only because of the Kyuubi's power.Quote:

At the very leas he could have learned a couple new jutsus for fan service but i guess that hes gonna get owned by sasuke and were now gonna see him learn some new stuff i guess.
Well back in the first episodes when Naruto actually pretty near speared Kakashi I was very hopeful that Naruto might actually have learned to be useful...
Gotta give it to the first maybe 10 episodes, those were pretty awesome. After that the series took a downhill, then had a slight rise during the Sakura vs Sasori fight, and then dove straight down off a cliff right after that ended.
U forget about the kyuubi vs oro fight that was pretty awsome too but the fact is that we still havent seen naruto do anything right even after 50 episodes...
Ehhh... I wasn't too impressed with that fight honestly. There was the historical Oro bitch slap, and the chakra ball, but the rest was screaming and staring.
Other than the different enemy, its just like the current Sasuke vs all fight, a little action but immediately drowned in crap.
Aye the worst episode/s of stareppuuden so far. I took me 15 minutes to watch this episode because I skipped the flashbacks. Why didnt they use the material they used in the first episode of shippuuden but replaced it with something horrible shit like this? This could have been the most epic episode of shippuuden so far but no. Shit, shit, shit, shit...
I'm really getting fed up with this series. And way to make whole team Kakashi look like bunch of losers.
Im gonna start reading the manga because i just dont give shit about the anime anymore.
U and me both dude. Thats why im thinking of going for the manga.
and when u see the fights in the manga u wish to you could watch the anime.. trust me :(
Yeah but u cant tell me u watch those flashbacks and stare contests with a smile in your face
Why hasn't Oro caught up to Sasuke yet? It's his base, lol. Episode content aside, I thought the video quality was crappy. Whether it was the raw capturer or DB encoder's fault I don't care enough to find out. The blur just almost made my eyes water.
Chidori Current + Lion Combo anyone?
Sure that would make a nice combo but I doubt we'll ever see Sasuke use the Lion combo anymore, with his speed that kinda thing just isn't necessary anymore not to mention that he has a goddamn sword that can cut through anything.
I figure Oro is just letting things play out, thinking that hopefully when they meet Sasuke, they will realize all their efforts are for naught and give up on it, not that Naruto is that logical. I don't know what Naruto and Sakura were thinking though, they weren't in Sasuke's league even before he left and he spent the last three years with Oro yet for some reason they think they are strong enough to defeat him with the little improvements they have made.
Yes and the last 3 or 4 episodes were all very bad quality.
I used to remember specials of an hour were always great. Almost 1 hour of action, since Shipuuden I had to revise it, a special is always worse then a regular episode... Mostly it's crap with little bits of good pieces in it. And they're often disturbed with keywords they've suddenly invented with the airing of Shipuuden...
By the way, what the hell did this one meant?
The only one I ever understood was the first one, Shipuuden.
This one was Sa I Ka I. Someone cares to explain?
Screw the anime. I used to be a hard core anime fan, but this is sick. I am so glad that I turned to reading the manga, the story in there is better (though some may dispute that with what just happened right now).
And I agree about the specials. In the old series, a special meant one thing: quality. Now it is roughly translatable in to commerical turd.
Man this anime is crap. I can't even comment on the content itself because it just sucked so much.
why did sakura run at sasuke with the intent to super-punch him anyway?
what would she have achieved if that hit him?
"wow sakura thanks for popping my head like a balloon! i'll come back to the village now and have sex with you 24/7 while you say sasuke-kuuun! over and over."
Well if they ever want him back polite conversation wont do the trick so kicking his ass and carrying it back to koboha for deprograming seems like the smart choice. What u should b laughting at is an idiot girl using taijitsu against a guy with sharingan and a badass sword.Quote:

i think even sasuke would have problem against kabuto when it comes to taijutsu, because they don't have to make contact for their techniques.
@ redcat
well the whole " i ll bring sasuke back" story is senseless anyway... they act like oro forced him to come.
Are you serious have you seen Sasuke's speed there is no way Sakura would be able to even lay a finger on Sasuke did you not see her attempts at actual combat before. I doubt Kabuto would stand much of a chance against Sasuke either the only actual combat we have seen from Kabuto was his fight against Tsunade and that isn't going to cut it.
You know what I find funny its like the fillers really did kill the anime. They have been making the fillers for so long that i seems that even thought they are actually using canon material now its still feels like you're watching fillers.
The thing is that it wont touch anything but thin air... sasuke's sharingan will see to that.Quote:

Now that he has that speed and his sharingan is even better than it was then simple taijutsu like that isn't going to be much of a threat. Did you forget how he could predict all of Naruto's moves when he was fighting him, now combine that with Sasuke's speed and there is no way Sakura would be able to touch him much less land a punch.
ya sasuke is so ultra fast that a slow-build-up wodden prison was able to catch him.....
Slow build? We much have been watching different shows. Also even if he dint escape in time he wasnt even there for a second dude. Thing is that unless yamato has an ace up his sleeve this is gonna be pure ownage
Okay for anyone who watches the anime and reads the manga I have two questions . First is, didn't Sasuke already remove the seal that Kakashi had put on top of his curse seal so why was it there? Secondly wasn't Sasuke's sword black just like Ichigo's bankai?(yet another color issue) I guess they aren't important details but whats with the change? Well thats three questions but whatever.
Ive read some manga and i can tell you that the sword wasnt black, other than that beats me.
Nope Sasuke never removed Kakashi's seal on the cursed seal. The overseal was never meant to restrict the power anyway, it was only there to contain it unless Sasuke draws it out on purpose. He has no need to remove the overseal.
The Sharingan's Eye of Insight lets him read taijitsu moves as you make them. He can see through ninjitsu as well, but from what I remember, he has to watch it, work out what it does and how he does it, and evade it.Quote:

You're an idiot because what I said was "the only actual combat we have seen from Kabuto was his fight against Tsunade and that isn't going to cut it" I never said thats all Kabuto's has. It was probably painful to write because your body was trying to tell you that my language was vague enough so that in that instance it didn't leave anything for you to criticize. Zing, Fail.

http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/4...ubitmapnb9.jpg
and about what seal are you guys talking about? the 3 dots? its exactly the same in the anime... or do you mean the ring which was around these 3 dots before and is not there anymore?
@ 24:20 you can see it.
I'm sorry you're mistaken I read the manga and I know the sword is black there. I trust this should satisfy you or do you need more proof?
http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...acksword-1.jpg
ya they turned the colors exactly to the oposite, now the sheath is black and the sword is white-grey
i couldn't possible know that because the sheath normally does also look like a sword :P (thats the reason why it is a sheath for a sword isn't it? ^^)
btw then again what seal did you see in the anime? he also removed it there.
as i said @ 24:20 or even the same scene of the manga in the anime @ 31:00
what do you mean?
edit: ok forget that thing about 2 rods of metal etc... just ignore the edit if you havn't read what i wrote before. its just poorly animated when the kunai sliced sasukes sword.
The three dots is Oro's curse seal, the ring around it is the seal Kakashi put on Sasuke to contain the curse seal and as you can see the ring is absent in the manga yet present in the anime.
Yes at 24:20 Kakashi's circular seal is absent yet at 33:09 it magically reappears and that makes even less sense than if it was just always there or always absent since it was never in the manga in the first place. Speaking of 33:09 that doesn't even look like Sasuke who the hell is that supposed to be.

Yes for the first part of the special its not there then its as if for the last 1/4 of the special someone just decides to put it on him, I don't get it. I also don't know why they decided the change the color of the sword, as I've said before the anime seems to randomly change the color of things but the sword in the manga just looks so much better. How they ruined this is akin to how they ruined Kakashi's MS scene.
Seriously it seems the last thing the anime got right was the Gaara vs Deidara fight. There is one other major change that they made that no one seems to have noticed but I'll talk about that some other time.
For extra fun, check out the first episode. Sasuke doesnt have a seal on that one either.
You guys are a bunch of nerds. Who cares?
Says the man with a post count of almost OVER 9000!!!!!
Well it doesnt really matter since it doesnt affect much of the final product but it clearly shows a lack of interest by the guys who make naruto. Not that the latest episodes arent all a proof of that already ofcourse.Quote:

What do you mean it looked cooler. Was it because it was animated or are you talking about the color. If they had used the sword Sasuke used in the manga you don't think it would have been better than the generic one they gave him.
i think both are beautiful... the anime version looks more realistic though. i like that. simple yet amazing.
and to be honest, its not like its important is it? i can understand the fuz about the seal since its simply stupid but well i think the sword is black in the manga because of it lacks colours and sometimes its quite difficult to spot a white sword in the middle of the fight (as a reader)
u mean the sword right? lol somehow chidori doesn't strike me as realistic.
Actually im gonna have to go with abdula on this one, that black sword looked awsome.
No not really all the swords Oro uses show up just fine and its not about being realistic the sword isn't supposed to be a normal sword which is pretty much why I liked how it was in the manga. If Ichigo's bankai was changed and made to look like a normal zanpakuto it would have been a big deal.Quote:

Yes it was about color but color in the bleach case is a huge deal while not so much in naruto.
You are an idiot aren't you.
... i keep forgeting who im talking to. Ill use smaller words next time, sorry.
today is a day.. full of hatred :(
funny i think its because of jesus.
What is up with you today?
XP lol K we're getting off-topic anyway. Abdula and I will just agree in disagreeing like we always do :D
Btw, did u guys see how the first's necklace fell off from naruto's neck? Think that's gonna have any effect on the following story?
Pshhh... he's going to get back up, have several flashbacks about how he received the necklace, and how Jiraiya telling him about how it summons death to the wearer, and then scream SASUKE and make shadow clones and try charging with a rasengan. After that fails, he'll make a mass of shadow clones and try to beat Sasuke with numbers. After that fails, he'll make a speech about how he can't save his friend. After that sucks, the episode will end.
PS, and in between the Kage Bunshins, insert random flashbacks of how Sasuke kicked his ass and clones before in the valley.

the "sword on the back" thing was for samurai's,at least thats what i thought (when the sheath showed to the left during wartime, so they can draw it out of the sheath instantly)
You're mistaken the ninjas are the ones that traditionally carry their swords on their backs since the weapons they use are usually much shorter than your traditional Japanese swords that Samurai would use.
Did you not notice that the Kyuubi only began acting up after the necklace fell off. If they really intend for Naruto to stop using the Kyuubi then the necklace will play a big part of it. Oh no, typing that just gave me a bad visual of a Naruto necklace on necklace off story kinda like R+V or the many other animes that have that kind of plot. That would most truly suck.Quote:

K i guess that makes sense.
Also, id like to start another discussion here. I get it why oro wants sasuke's body for the sharingan, those eyes are completely badass and he'd be unstopable with them but the matter of the fact is that he would only have them for 3 years since thats the time he can keep a body before it starts rejecting him right? Well, except for training sasuke all this time oro doesnt seem to have been doing anything all that great so is all the sffort he's putting in sasuke really worth it?
Just read the last I don't know 10 or any of the anime threads since Oro has reappeared its been discussed over and over and over again.
K, in that case new question. Is the sword of kusanagi an only sword or is it a series of powerfull swords? Looks like both oro and sasuke have one but i googled it and it's supposed to be a singular legendary japanese sword so how do they both have one?
There is only one, they are just using it to refer to any sword that can't be blocked.
But orochimaru's sword has been blocked a couple of times by either kyuubi naruto or the third hokage. Or r u talking about sasuke's sword?
Oro's sword is the sword of kusanagi and its only been really been blocked by Kyuubi Naruto, Enma more or less just parried the blow like he told the third, even though he was harder than diamond the sword still cut him although I don't know why Oro didn't just cut straight through him. I think Sasuke just refers to his sword as a sword of Kusanagi because when he runs the chidori through it, it can't be blocked, like what Yamato tried to do with the kunai.
you're very helpful as long as people dont disagree with you abdula lol
u know i've been complaining alot about naruto's evolution but i've been thinking about it and we've never really seen naruto fight at 100% since shippuden started. What i mean by this is that he still hasnt had any 1 on 1 battles and we all know that it's on those that the main carachter always shines and in all other batles there was always something against him like the damage the kyubbi did to him ( what might have helped with the sasuke ownage ) , or when the nine tail's cloak got in the way b4 he could rally go at it. Maibe we should give the guy a chance until he actually has a serious 1 on 1 battle while he's at 100% .
Misconception, I'm very nice and helpful in general and if someone disagrees with me then I don't really care what my point or my opinion is as long as they can defend themselves its usually very telling about the person and not a bad way to get to know them either.Quote:

Besides he is far too valuable to just let him fight on his own like that especially if its against an Akatsuki member. I'm sure if Naruto improved his analytical abilities they won't be so concerned but at present Naruto rarely pays attention to anything and is more than likely to get baited by an opponent and run directly into their traps.
As for him being 100% I don't think that has much to do with anything, in terms of putting up a fight and not holding back etc. Naruto is Naruto he is always like that I don't think he even knows how to hold back which is why he blindly rushes into things in the first place. Secondly if he can't win a battle at all unless he is completely 100% then he won't last long as a ninja.
I get your point but it's just that ppl have been making comparisons between his fights ãnd the ones between sakura and sasori for example but they all have to see that naruto hasn't really had a chance to shine since he keep being put in situations where he is either not at 100% or he's fighting an impossible opponent. For example, in one of the only fights he was actually well, the one vs itachi, i think naruto actually didnt do half bad.
You do get a point about Naruto not having a real fight. Will they do a introduction from Naruto himself about, this is the Naruto Chronicles like during the Gaara fight? :P
Maybe then the anime will rock again
True but being put in unfavorable situations and having to fight your way out of them is part of being a ninja. Just look at Kakashi's fight against Zabuza, The third against Oro, Sasuke against Oro, Sasuke against that sound nin, Gaara against Deidara, The Sannin Battle etc.
The fight against Itachi is a perfect example of why Naruto needs to be supported or protected in a battle. That was one of his best performances in battle in Shippuden yet he got caught in Itachi's genjutsu and if not the others he would have easily been captured and killed. It's also important to note that although that was one of his best performances he wasn't even able to lay a hand on Itachi without Itachi being held, the difference in level between him and his opponents is just not something Naruto is able to compensate for yet.
A list of stuff i miss from the first series:
- Naruto's desire to become hokage that did alot more for him that the desire to get sasuke back
- His way of the ninja, another thing that helped him in alot of fights
- Sasuke, since he was the goal that naruto always tried to reach in terms of strengh. it doesn't really have to be him, in fact i think Sai could make a good replacement
the truth is that if you decide to watch the first series again ( skip the fillers if you value your sanity ) you'll see that naruto lost alot of his passion, mostly i think because he no longer has that strong will to become the best, just a bitchy desire to save a "friend" that doesn't want to be saved

Forget about that
Another question. Do we, the anime viewers, already know who madara uchiha is?
Nope, never heard of it. We could start speculating...Quote:

We know that the Kyuubi knows him, Itachi would have been far far too young to be involved in that fight. More likely someone Kakashi's age+ We didn't ever get the name of the person that Kakashi got his eye from right? Maybe him, or maybe I'm way off base and it is someone even older, I also forget if we got the name of the first person to achieve Mangekyu Sharingan but if not he is a possibility.Quote:

All of those possibility's are wrong:
- itachi's friend was too young and im not even sure he was na uchiha
I was actually thinking sasuke's father cause i didnt really get his name but he didn't look that powerfull for the nine tails to remember him, also sasuke said he didn't know who that was but the guy is so messed up i don't know if he even remebers his dads name
