To me it seemed this episode went by incredibly fast. When the ending song came on I looked at the progress bar and thought no way that could be twenty minutes already.
The only minor complaint I had with the episode is when the leaf with the sunglasses was fighting Kakuzu. A few minutes ago Kakuzu's hands were flying all over the place, now all of sudden this dude with glasses is easily blocking and dodging his attacks.
its probably going to be a sad one next week too if they show him telling Kurenai.
Eh... I would say he's just being cautious. His abilities may have some sort of major weakness (just skyballing here) and while he knew the rough abilities of Asuma's group from watching the earlier part of the fight, he has only limited knowledge of the newcomers. So he could be testing the waters with basic taijutsu, knowing that he can break out his more powerful tactics if he gets into trouble or once he's sure they don't have abilities able to counter it. Alternately, not everyone is Naruto of the never-ending-supply-of-chakra. Its clear that Asuma summoned reinforcements and he has no way of knowning how many more folks might be coming, so he could just be conserving energy in case he needs it later.
Ugh, an otherwise epic episode marred by 5 seconds of the return of "clone fighting" style taijutsu animation.
Other than that, SUPER SAAAAAAD!!!
And seriously, where the hell does Akatsuki Leader hang out? Fucking Zanarkand?
Loved Akatsuki leader, I didn't think they'd make him look like a zombie, but I suppose it fits. Asuma's death was a lot less dramatic the second time around, but still, it was moving, with the music and the rain and seeing the cigarette get more and more smoked etc. A good episode.
Aoba (sunglasses guy) got shafted with that Taijutsu fight. He looked so bad ass with his army of crows jutsu but then they had to go and ruin it. I'm a bit ticked about that.
I'd say the thing that marred this episode the most was that Shkimaru didn't smoke a cigarette at the end. Something like that should not be left out.
i saved a unicorn
That's because the last two have been two part episodesTo me it seemed this episode went by incredibly fast
I didn't like the hand-to-hand fighting that the Akatsuki and the other dude did. It was so slow, and bland.. just, boring. The City that the Akatsuki leader was in looked freakin awesome. I can't wait to see more of it.
I really didn't like them giving Asuma last words.. I think it would of been a much cooler death if he had just died on the battlefield, without the luxury of last words. :\

DB's releases these days are h264 encodes in avi containers. Make sure your configuration can handle that (divx won't help you here).Originally Posted by Kagemane_no_Jutsu

I wonder who the king is...
And, so if they had just held out for what, 5 mins more? The reinforcements would have been there.
Wait, he smokes in the manga? That's hardcore. I can see why they took that out though. Having a 15 year old smoke on TV?
The king is who you follow. The king is who you serve. The king is who you protect. Someone (or some group) that you'd die to protect. The Third is a fine example.
I'll let you draw the conclusion.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
I was wondering if it's Kurenai or Shikamaru
Come on people you don't know who the king is? I mean Bill practically spelled it out.

Sapphire is awesome!
He better not have been talking about Naruto.
Yeah its Naruto
What a waste of an episode. After the leader made his little appearance I just skipped over everything else and really what was up with that stupid taijutsu battle.
I guess that scene really is just not gonna make it in Assertn. A pity, the name change was pretty clever though..

Arent they already like 17-18?
I dont read the manga but I expected Shikamaru to pick up that cigarette when he started walking. Somehow the scene felt like it was build for that.
Good ending in my opninion.
Now, who's the next victim from the "good" side, I hope it's Naruto
Hakke Rokujūyon Shō!
