    I don't know about higher quality, but it seemed to be story wise decent enough so far. It looks like a bit of a detective arc, which is a good sign as such, because it could indicate serious script writing - a concept that has hardly fitted in the same sentence with fillers in the past.

    And I didn't mind seeing Inner Sakura again... That has always been pretty funny.

    It's also a fine detail how Neji calls Hinata Hinata-sama. They live in their own microworld with their rigid family and clan relationships. Things like this strenghten the individuality of the characters.

    When Shikamaru gave everyone they're assignments I could totally see exactly what he was thinking.

    "Allright, I'm gonna take the two retards with me so I can make sure they don't screw up the investigation any."


    Best part was the new outfits in the movie clips. Sakura with a bare midriff ftw!

    i don't know why, but i actually really liked this episode.



    "There are no bad people who like Ichiraku Ramen!"

    We didn't actually saw him eating Ichiraku Ramen though, since he gave it to Naruto.

    Hmm yeah.. maybe he's just been faking the eating of ramen all along and he's really a badguy!

    *sigh* The movie looks very happy happy family movie.. I miss the times when Naruto was about life and death and people getting mauled by eachother.. and.. and.. *sniffle*

    Finally I'm able to watch Naruto again, I been waiting for this ep since I saw the title for it last mth and it didn't let me down. The way all the Jounin and Chuunin's just woke up and rushed to Tsunade's office was cool. No way the trap master killed himself before having his heated meeting with Naruto to confess why he did it.

    I'm gonna have to call you out on this one, DarthEnder. Check back when they were fighting the Sound Five (or was it four?). Shikamaru has complete confidence in Chouji. I think he included him in the group because of his love of food, and that will somehow lead them to solve the mystery of the ramen and hidden blue prints.

    Bare mid-driff Sakura was pretty cool, until you remember she's 12. I didn't like Naruto or Kakashi in short sleeves either, something un-ninja-like about it.

    It looked like more than one animation house did the scenes in this episode. The animation at the beginning was ok, then bad, then the scenes with Shikamaru were excellent, then ok again, then bad, then ok.

    One of the best parts of this episode, besides the appearance on ANBU, was when Gennou went kamikaze with the exploding tags. Definitely not something for the kids in the audience!

    What's with the attitude? Guess you win geek points for knowing the color of someone's headband, but you lose cool points for being a jerk about it.

    LMAO!!! that is what you get for insulting me. HAHAHA. But seriously the person that did that should really take a look at our sigs. Thanks for the concern though.

    Also you will be proven wrong Deadlast. I am almost sure that I am correct. All of the genins have the same head ban, everyone in Konoha even.


    When i get home i will do some digging into my archives and you will see.....

    dumbass has spoken.

    Shikamaru has confidence in Chouji's strength. Not his intellegence. Especially in the filler, Shikamaru is definatly grouping him with Naruto in the detective department.

    I'd say Shikamaru has confidence in Chouji's capabilities altogether. His best asset might not be a "detective" skill like Shino's bugs or Neji's byakugan, but he's still a valuable asset.

    I think he's keeping Naruto in his group because he knew about the possible connection between Gennou and Naruto. So it's not necessarily a punishment, and it's not like Shikamaru is baby-sitting the two worst ninjas. They are there because he needs them there.

    Check the animation in the preview, looks like some high quality stuff. Might spell the end of fillers!
