What the hell is wrong with Gai's face?
Looks like Neji's receiving a spanking from Tenten in that pic.
ACK! a dbz reference !!! not that i didn't love dbz...
This ep was ok. it was kinda whack that team gai all were teaming up on armless deidara ... did they get so fed up with fighting clones that they all wanted to fight an enemy.. idk. i hope theyu start to progress the story a little faster.
also... no eps in 2 weeks. that is sad news for me
I think taking out two akatsuki members is pretty decent progress.

In 30 eps? Doesn't really sound like progress to me. In the original series, the entire Zabuza arc took like half of that. And in another 30 eps, we had had the Chuunin Examns forest-thingy and the first elimination fights.Originally Posted by AssertnFailure
And progress is not all about killing your oponents you know, but there has been zero storyline development in Shippuuden so far. All we got was some background information on Deidara (might have been nice, but ultimately it was irrelevant since he died ten minutes later), and finally in this episode the "Demon Fox Cloak". For 30 eps, that's pretty meagre. Again, in the original series... Well, you know what I mean.
It's a real shame they didn't do Kakashi's arc first like they should have, that would have provided some relevant background information.
Lol at everyone who negrepped me for saying this ep sucked, you so got me with that...
Someone plz block my computer from ever downloading another episode of Naruto.
Can we have ABC, CBS, NBC plz do a week 1 cancellation notice. This show is not worthy of primetime anymore.
Remind me not to watch two weeks from now since the previews showed what coulda just been done in this episode. ZOMG dragging out the boring to new heights.
Is Tenten the new Sakura, all talk and bluster but no real hitting ability or ability to stand in and fight anyone. Even when she busts out here great emotional hardhitting attack to defeat het clone those darn kunai barely impacted the body, if your going to skewer someone do it right.
Don't get me wrong I say this because I really really dig the tenten Im just wailing because of her lack of impact as a power player in this series. I want Tenten to be as powerful and shown with representation as Temari is given.
whoever is the head person of Shippuden, plz fire yourself and spread around your salary to hiring some real creative writers and storyboard artists, I mean did we really have to watch Kakashi use the same power 3 times, it was almost like he found the cure to every living disease/ailment on the planet and was it applying it to everyone and everybody, here have a little of this all powerful juju I have discovered it solves every single problem known to afflict everyone.
Stick a fork in my I feel like going for Korean BBQ, more Suck upcoming.
Yeah, I gotta say, I, uh, I didn't like it much either.
Kakashi's MS was pretty cool(though I still think its stupid that it looks different, and does something completely different, but we're gonna go ahead and give it the same name as Itachi's eye), but as was said, it took foreeeeeeever for it to do anything. It was just 5 minutes of eyeshot, swirl effect, eyeshot, swirl effect, eyeshot. When it finally took his damn arm off it was awsome.
What can I say but Kyuubi fucking sucked. It wasn't anything we didn't see when he used it to fight Sasuke, in fact it was a whole lot less. Lots of transformation buildup only to have it go away before he even did anything.
Plus, tail emerging from ass+bubbling sound effect=taking a ghostly red dump. I laughed sure, but what a mood killer.
The stuff after the fights was fine. Naruto bitching out the world is always fun.
i just think they should be much further into the story line by now and cant go into detail because i'd be spoiling. at this rate to get to where the manga is currently it will be like 200+ shippuuden eps
Just send a mail to DB asking when the next naruto episode is coming out, they will make sure to ban you from ever downloading Naruto. (And bleach..)Originally Posted by AngryGumball
I caught a few minutes of this episode because my friend downloaded it...... and from what I saw, plus that awesome screen shot posted above with Guy looking like some sort of weird bird....
....did Studio Perriot take all of their main animators and fill animators that were worth a damn and just put them on movie projects?
The animation quality of Naruto has been declining for awhile... it was never fantastic and had a lot of moments where it just looked terrible, but at least it was still well modern animation.
Recently it seems like they are cutting corners by doing the old school "use frame of animation and move only the mouths" technique, the worst part of which they pick frames like that one above with Team Guy to do this corner cutting with.
The effects for the Mangekyo Sharingan looked like they dropped a series of frames into photoshop and used a frosted glass filter then Distort ---> twirl.
There is nothing wrong with computer generated effects/filters etc... but honestly the end result of what they did felt just thrown together.....and pretty much looked ugly.

|New Signature 3.0!! Simon now has star glasses..... and lost a lot of my respect......R.I.P. Simon without lame glases...
not sure what you see wrong with guy's face in that pic but neji looks like kermit the frog
Deidara, Sasori, and Chiyo are the only good things about Shippuuden so far.
Deidara and the 'anticipation' of Kakashi's using MS were the only two elements I found remotely compelling in this episode.
The animation is a sick joke. You know they pull in absurd money off of this show, especially with the marketing of figurines, video games and everything else. Looks like they've decided to just cash in, rather than re-invest it in the show.
How you can make the main character becoming "possessed" by a demon, and releasing absurd power that threatens to kill one of his allies, into a yawner was something that escaped my imagination. Obviously, they somehow managed.
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".
Nobody has talked about Kakashi's MS in detail yet? Seriously...wtf was that? I thought MS was supposed to be a Genjutsu technique. There was nothing illusionary about what Kakashi did. Deidara really did lose his arm and everybody saw it.
That technique makes no sense. There are lots of weird techniques in Naruto, but this one just doesn't feel right.
I agree. Another terrible Naruto episode.Originally Posted by Kraco
I hated the fact that Kakashi's Mangekyou took five episodes to get ready for and another episode to use. I think I fast-forwarded the episode by ten minutes and it was still going on.
I didn't even watch episode thirty because it couldn't get any worse.
It was the same in the Manga, Deidara lost his arm after Kakashi used his improved Sharingan on him, he was not aiming for the arm though..Originally Posted by Board of Command
It wasn't a question, it was a statement.Originally Posted by BioAlien
Well then there should be a problem with Itachi's MS as well... those balck flames we saw in the frog's throat were no illusion either.Originally Posted by Board of Command
this ep was pretty retarded. I would stop watching naruto but its not like i'm paying for it.
