Haha! I missed that one, thanks for picture.Originally Posted by Yukimura
Despite the lack of action, I think it was a pretty good episode. The "White Fang" part is interesting (although it wasn't really a surprise that it was Kakashi's father).
Can't wait until next episode.
Yep, its looks like we are going to have a school fight on our hands, courtesy of a family feud.
It looks as though Gaara's exorcism will be interrupted, as Kisame and Itachi are going to have to fight. Gaara might be saved after all!
I think so.....because Sasori is Chiyo's grandson, and so Sasori's dad would be Chiyo's son. Its quite possible. And judging from how pissed of Chiyo is...and how much she wants to see her grandson like its her last family member alive. i think its alluded she may have only one son.Originally Posted by allstar23834
I don't think it was Sasori's dad that was killed by Kakashi's dad.
I was expecting this episode to suck giant nipples, (I'm a Sakura beater) but even with Sakura healing throughout the entire episode, it was pretty decent.
i dunno, i wasn't wild for this episode or anything...
First, I know Tsunade's teh 1337 haXorz Phoenix Down/X-Potion medical ninja, and that Sakura is her protegee, but something about a teenage girl being better at medicine than an ancient, experienced doctor like Chiyo... Well, god is in the machine, and he make 'a you the fresh plot stretch pie!
Why did Chiyo just get kicked out of the medical room after Sakura came in, but Baki and Temari stayed? And no restraints to hold Kank down? No wonder he almost died, the Sand's got ghetto medicare.
I did think the technique Sakura used was pretty cool though. Looks like it's chakra control again, which she rocks at. And for as cool as it looked, it was actually very simple: use water (or whatever that solution was) to extract the poison from the body. Not exactly rocket science here, I mean, it's in like every movie/show when a person gets bit by a snake/scorpion (who you'd imagine Sasori imitates in his style, hence his calling card, the red scorpion). I'm sorta surprised Chiyo didn't try some kind of extraction treatment, but I guess she was focused on making an anti-drug or something along those lines.
It'd be common sense to figure that Chiyo -> her son (who was killed by White Fang) -> his son Sasori. But I know sometimes people here struggle with advanced thinking problems such as this...
I'm intrigued about Kakashi's father. That was the best part of the episode for me.
"We have time to just hang around... talk about our emotions" ... not an actual quote, I'd love for someone to know what I'm refering to here. I spare you further disparaging over the emotional content of this episode, though I suppose it's nice to see more of how Kank views Naruto vis-a-vis his brother.
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
The thing about Chiyo is that I think she is just a Poison Expert, not a medic-nin, that is why she didn't do what Sakura did.
yeah i pretty much agree with RyougaZell, chiyo is a poison specialist, she may know how to counteract many poisons but removing them would be the domain of a doctor....
i think its kinda weird that the sand didnt have any true meidcal ninja who can perform this kind of technique.....
but also im getting kinda worried abotu the blurring of power lines at the moment, i mean we have ranks to at least make a vague guess at the stregnth of each ninja, but now neji is the same rank as kakashi right? naruto didnt just beat neji with raw power, he completely out foxed him (forgive the pun) now are we to belive that naruto is even remotley on the same level as kakashi? Also linking with akatski itachi pretty much owned kakashi the last time and i think it would be safe to assume that all the members are of similar power levels, eg above jounin so how are we to believe that the ninjas konoha sent out even stand a chance against the opposition, even if greater numbers may be an issue, its clear to see that in terms of power gaara dwarfs both rock and neji and could more than likley crush them within a heartbeat, but gaara got beaten by somone who was hodling back against him.... and not to mention HE calls sasori master so we have to assume that sasori>deidara......and since clearly deidara is stronger and smarter than gaara we have to assume that sasori is stronger than both kakashi and guy, and deidara is at least the same....
i dunno maybe im thinking too much along the "power levels" bollocks of DBZ and other shonen anime, and maybe i shoudl think of it more like well neji is hand to hand combat and gaara is kinda the anti-hand to hand guy... so he beats neji.. more like rock paper scissors i guess...
sorry im rambling.
Styles make fights. It doesn't has anything to do with "power levels" or whatever, but just how each character's style and abilities match. Naruto can beat Neji, but that doesn't necessarily make him jounin level or equal to any other jounin.
@Chambers: Until a blonde haired monkey turns up with the ability to fly (properly) and destroy planets, forget about power levels in Naruto.
No one else finds it weird that Naruto was satisfied with Kakashi's short and lame explanation of who the White Fang was? He didn't make any fuss at all.
I guess he felt that Kakashi didnt really wanted to talk about it.
Which means he has in fact grown a little.
I think it's an easy way to NOT go over the spoiler removed yet. The past of Kakashi will come later.
Also the Sand shell theory of Gaara is shot to hell with the screaming and all. Now we're sure.
Still can't talk about that yet.

Cool episode.
Finally Sakura did something useful. Hopefully she will also be useful in the future episodes. And what a cool way to take of the poison out. Quite original. I would have never thought of that.
naruto only beat neji because he went into crazy hollow-bankai mode. he wouldn't have won if he wasnt born with the strongest power ever. and he didnt really outfox neji, that was only like 1 time in his life where he used good strategy and got lucky, he didnt usually do that.
Obviously... That's what makes his character.
Actually, Naruto used to use good strategy all the time early in the series. When he and Sasuke free Kakashi from Zabuza, when he beat the Rain gennin during the Chuunin exam, when he beat Neji, and the first half of his fight with Gaara before the summons came out.
As the series has progress he's actually become LESS clever the more powerful he's become.
Good episode. Animation was much improved over previous episodes, and once again, the background music made a big difference in a pretty slow-moving storyline.
One of the few annoying details: Sakura tells them to hold Kankurou down, then has to tell them again when he starts flailing. Very professional of them.
Otherwise, very good episode.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
There really aren't many moments when he uses strategy. Although, against Kiba he did used a trick with Akamaru only following his greatest trick ever, the fart...
It always come to one thing in the first place, Kage Bunshin. He always relies on that, but not often does it has any effect...

Then can you mention a serious fight where he DIDN`T used strategy?There really aren't many moments when he uses strategy. Although, against Kiba he did used a trick with Akamaru only following his greatest trick ever, the fart...

You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
