Oh man, for an episode in which nothing actually happened, I was fucking riveted through the whole thing.

An explanation of the elements of Naruto and how they mix.

A further explanation into the intricacies of Shadow Clones.

This is the kind of awesome stuff they don't give us anymore. Ninja magic explained through faux science!


I'm also hoping that Naruto having "wing" elements will mean more than just some wind powered Rasengan further down the road. I hope he learns all kinds of wind powers. Like the Air Walk!

I wasn't expecting him to be Wind element, since most of the Sand ninja seem to be Wind element(well, it is the Wind Country). I was seriously expecting him to be Fire element since Leaf Village is in the Fire Country. And Naruto seems to exemplify everything that is the Leaf Village.


Although, I never understood why the Fire Country's village was a leaf. Leaves are, like, the opposite of fire...
