Naruto Shippuuden Episode 28

[animus]

Episode 28 - NB

Edit: Episode 28 - DB


It's been said a million times, but god, the animation and art is so awful. It's pretty silly how I'm pretty sure they have a bigger budget due to the success of the series, yet the animation is about 500 times worse than it was in the Chuunin Exams.

Maybe it's time constraints. But weren't the original early Naruto episodes released weekly anyways? I'm guessing they didn't spend that much time on their earlier episode, due to the fact that the episodes that did catch up with the manga were of the same quality animation and not this shitty Shippuuden crap that they make after this long filler break?
