    It needs to be remembered that so far the only times we have seen the ANBU have been them getting their asses kicked, or beating some wild cats... So, at least in my eyes saying somebody was an ANBU member doesn't mean terribly much. They might need to be fine ninjas, but nothing extraordinary.

    Well, a team consisting of a Taijutsu master and a Taijutsu master in training with the ability of the unlocking gates (which will provide more power than the hokage) and a genius among geniuses with his great Byakugan ability. This can turn out into an interesting fight. Ow yeah, don't forget about Ten Ten... Don't have much faith in her ability, you rarely see a high ranked Shinobi being hit by a Shuriken or kunai.
    Hakke Rokujūyon Shō!

    Now THAT'S a Naruto episode!!! I know most people have already mentioned this being a good ep. But it needed re-mentioning. This is exactly what made me tune in week after week when before the fillers and looked forward to the next weeks episode.
    I cannot wait to see what this weeks episode is going to turn out like. I just hope that the great buildup they had with this episode does not lead to an anti-climatic ending.

    I doubt that the scout guy was staying in the same location and saw both teams pass the same place, I think his abilities make him able to be scouting multiple places at once.He could do that by having clones of himself placed in a circular area around their base.
    I think the fact that both Gai and Rock Lee really do not have chakra to be stolen by Kisame give them a better chance at beating him. As for Itachi, I dont have much to say except that Kakashi's team are on their own, but do have the added (unknown) possibilities of the Obaasan (old woman).

    Who says they do not have chakra?
    Lee cannot use Ninjutsu nor Genjutsu... but that doesn't mean he doesn't have chakra. All living things has it.
    Moreover... to perform his Lotus techniques he requieres chakra.

    And whoever said Gai couldn't use Ninjutsu either? Sure, he's never used one before, and is a Taijutsu master... but he definitely doesn't have the same issues as Lee, of being incapable of using Ninjutsu.

    Remember that, even though he hasn't used it, he most likely has the summoning contract of the Turtles.

    That's a weird conclusion to come to....if you don't recall him ever using it....

    But yeah, he DID summon a turtle once, and summons are ninjutsu.

    That is a plothole I've been waiting Kishimoto to explain someday....

    The turtle that scolded Lee was with no doubt a summon, since it could talk and then puffed away. If Lee knew it and it presented Gai its because he has the summon scroll.

    Yet we have never seen him use it... so yeah... its more like suppositions but with more bases than saying Gai can't use Ninjutsu when it has only been stated that Lee is the only one that cant.
