Episode 18 - Flomp-StrayLife

I can't guarantee the quality of their subs/raws. They're not bad I hear, but download at your own risk, or don't if you want to wait for DB.

Ah man no action yet. Doesn't seem like we'll see much next episode yet either. Most of it will probably cover Team Gai fighting those traps or whatever.

Oh com'on!! For chrissakes. So slow. Everything was so damn slow in this episode. The only thing, out of everything that happened in this episode, moving fast enough was the time as it counted up to 23mins and 4 secs. Don't get me wrong, if this had been an episode at the beginning of the arc then it would have been alright, BUT not at this time.

There was no need for Naruto to be shaking Neji while he was Byakuganing. That was just irritating and if I had been Neji, I would have given him a 32 (only 32 not 64) chakra point hit for being annoying.
I mean, here I am using byakugan to check things out, do not need to be distracted, idiot. That is what Neji should have said instead of just "let go"
And some unecessary questions/statements when they were discussing the barrier seals, since the answers were obvious
And the thing with Gai and the all hands in team cheer....too long and totally unnecessary for it to be that long. All 3 of them should have realized what he wanted once Lee put his hand in. There didnt need to be that long of a stare down from Gai, seeing how we all know how he is, just put your hands in there and get on with it. funny though the way Naruto's team turned him down flat; even if I were to die, no! :-)
Maybe I am just frustrated with the slow development of this episode. The stare down was a lil funny.

"After all, I am strangely colored"

My favorite part of the episode.

Akatsuki's leader is completely awesome. I wouldn't mind being able to summon and dismiss Mt. Rushmore whenever the mood struck me.
