Jiraiya sure was a bloody mess. I haven't seen anybody die like that in Naruto for ages. Good stuff.
Now that the focus is back on Naruto, we can only hope things don't go back to shit again.
We can only hope.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Wow, it finally happened what we all expected. That was just brutal how it happened...
I think this will be one of the most emotional deaths we'll encounter in Naruto, let's face it, if Naruto would die we wouldn't be that sad about it.
I think the only deaths who could surpass Jiraiyas' would be Kakashi or Sasuke in terms of emotions.
Finally, an encounter between Sasuke and Itachi, was about time.

Thats the sad part about this anime, the main character isnt worth shit. RIP J-man u will be missed.Originally Posted by ASSpirine
It was quite a good death. Especially if he indeed achieved something useful with it. Whatever that code contained plus everything the frogs also saw and learned.
It wasn't an overly flashy dead but on the other hand that might be only good. Deidara's nuclear explosion was getting out of proportions anyway since we are talking about individual humans here.
Awwww, Jiraya finally croaked
... yes that was all i had to say, you can move on now.
damn.... the best char in the whole series? if not he was damn close to it...
its weird to see how although we kinda viewed him as a joker, and the people of the village viewed him as a legendary sanin he thought of himself as a failure for all the things he gave up on.

The frog was right. He who is solely perverted will mentor a student who will either make or break peace in the ninja world. That's his one major accomplishment.
Well, and his books, but I don't think anybody other than Kakashi and a selected few read those.

Bye Bye Jiraiya! You will definitely be missed.
I like how they have been showing Jiraiya as more to Naruto then just a sensei. The godfather part was great and that he thinks that Naruto is the child of prophecy is nice too. Cant wait to see how Naruto reacts. First his parents are dead and now what he considers to be a grand father figure.
Such a great ep.

I'm putting money down right now that the next time someone battles Pain, Jiraiya's body is going to take the place of the Path that he killed.
About that.Originally Posted by iMUSTbeTHEdevil
I thought it was hilarious every time they showed that scene where Jiraiya checks out Kushino. He so would have made a move on her if she wasn't pregnant.
Perhaps the most confusing thing in this episode was when the Rinnegan was shown in the background when Jiraiya got pierced. It disappeared when Pa took out the metal stake from Jiraiya's main body, but it was still lodged in his arm.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
awman, what a great end to awesome fight.
i hope they don't cut into a filler arc after this.....

Emotional? Oh please no, don't milk it like with Asuma.Originally Posted by ASSpirine
I'd be really surprised if it doesn't happen.Originally Posted by DarthEnder
Really an amazing episode, here's hoping that the major fights continue to be so stunning.
I'm only positive that will happen because Naruto will likely be the next person to fight Pain.Originally Posted by Jessper
I'm guessing the six paths manifest as different people depending on who their opponent is. That's the only explanation I can think of for Pain's comment "So you see Yahiko in me", as if it's something that he can not realise by himself.
I'm rather lost about why each Path can only use one style of technique. I'm sure that will be revealed later, since I'm sure Jiraiya would have realised the true identity of those bodies sooner if they were all one-trick ponies he had encountered in the past.

Ooh, good call. I was assuming that Nagato had just obsessed about Jiraya and being abandoned by him. I wonder if that is a power of the Rinnengan or just something he picked up along the way, it seems like a strange technique to use on purpose, obviously it didn't make Jiraya hesitate about attacking or anything like that, but it did make him wonder about the identity.Originally Posted by Buffalobiian
The secret that pa got away with hopefully will shed some light on this, should be interesting though I'm guessing it won't be deciphered right away.
So the bodies are
Yahiko
The Puppet guy
The guy he drank saki with
The Waterfall guy in the bar
The giant Shuriken guy
I don't recognize the last one, but the only other characters I saw from that same episode are Hanzo and the preacher.

geez you guys I clicked the link for this episode and first reply was telling us what happened in the story we needed like a second post or the first post showing the link and then a warning DO NOT SCROLL down if you want episode spoilers :P
needed someone to hit the enter key 30 times to prevent the blurting out....
News flash: That`s the sad part about every shonen anime, more at 10.Originally Posted by Naruto_RNG
Wich makes me wonder, if the pain bodies are all people jiraiya knew, will the ones Naruto fight be people he knew?Originally Posted by DarthEnder
Jiraiya? Haku/Zabuza? Dead Akatsuki members?
i mean... it can`t be a coincidence Jiraiya knew all this guys right?
