Naruto Shippuuden Episode 59

Pretty much they were stuck in a clinch. The guys are escaping with valuable information. If you ran blindly in there, they would have gotten you into their trap. If you thought they were just a trap and sent some clones in, they would have owned you and left.

Then why wouldn't he just go in WITH his clones, like he always does?

Then why wouldn't he just go in WITH his clones, like he always does?

Because that would be the smart thing to do

I kinda liked the animation for this episode, it wasn't half bad, but the story isn't really appealing to me. Still, it comes out better than their manga episodes, because they have unlimited freedom and don't have to worry about spreading X amount of manga chapters over X amount of episodes.

I'm just praying they waste enough time on this arc (which, from this point forward, I'm not going to bother watching) so that they can actually do a good job on the next manga based one... because that one, so far, is my favorite. If they screw up on it I'll probably just stick to the manga forever.
