Naruto Shippuuden Episode 117

[Mugen]

im so glad it's back on track now i gave up on naruto after they went into the latest filler with the crystal lady, i gotta say although the series isnt as good as when it first started.. episodes 112-117 were pretty entertaining (maybe because i watched them in one sitting) too bad there's no episode this week..

[arondruiz]

I'm all for shitty animation if that means they're saving their budget for the bigger fights that are soon to come up

But if they manage to even fuck that particular fight up i think i'll delete all my shippuden episodes out of pure spite lol

I was reading a Japanese blog that is specifically dedicated to posting all the animation info. They think that the animation has dropped because most of the good animation staff is working on the movie, but the movie is done now and things will go back to normal starting with Kakashi Gaiden.

No horrible sub release yet?

[Marik]

Nope, just get Taka's version. Their releases are better than HS' anyway.

[antiravage]

For the record, I'd say my favorite fights are:

5. Sakura & Chiyo vs. Sasori
4. Lee vs. Kimimaru
3. Team Shikamaru vs. Hidan & Kakuzu
2. Naruto vs. Sasuke 2
1. Lee vs. Gaara

That's a pretty good list, I would put Gaara Vs Kimimaro instead of Lee Vs Kimimaru, children shouldn't drink. Talking about the upcoming fights, they better use their best animators, I wouldn't stand another Gaara Vs Deidara, the pace was too slow and the animation was bad.

drunk lee rampage on kimimaro is seriously the best 6 minutes of the entire anime.
The animation, the art, the music, and the choreography was all perfect.

[Archangel]

I would add Sasuke vs Orochimaru to that list for the animation alone

[ASSpirine]

Way too short for a fight, and I just didn't like the snake Orochimaru... And the winged Sasuke doesn't help either.

[Marik]

I was thinking he meant the one in the Forest of Death, during the Chunin Exams.

Exactly. I was never a sasuke fan but he handled that fight brilliantly, not to mention how impressive it was that a genin was actually able to "harm" a sanin

[poopdeville]

Heh, Naruto is still a genin.

[Pandadice]

Exactly. I was never a sasuke fan but he handled that fight brilliantly, not to mention how impressive it was that a genin was actually able to "harm" a sanin

did he actually "harm" him? I just thought Orochimaru was measuring his abilities.

[Archangel]

Well he certainly didn't see that sharingan shruiken attack coming so that alone gives sasuke uber points for short lived ownage

And i'd assume he was hurt a little, he did scream didn't he? ( god i hope he was screaming of pain and not something else... )

[Buffalobiian]

Sasuke was impressive for even doing damage to Oro, that much is certain. I wouldn't put it past Oro to scream just for show though.

Remember how the Third did an Earth Style landslide attack on him on the rooftop (or was it a fire attack?), and he screamed as went down?

"Quit faking it."

Hard to argue with that. It's just, that ONE little bit after he gets up and the music kicks in, it's just 100% own.
