I laughed out loud at the them doing a kind o DBZ type power up thing. Sure they didn't scream or anything, but the floating debris was a bit much.
I am glad to see that they are advancing the Sarutobi fight more than they are the Gaara vs Sasuke and eventually Gaara in Demon form vs Naruto and Gamabunta.
I had no clue they would speed up the arrival of the 1st and 2nd so fast.
Konohamaru and Sandaim'es little flashback was nice too. Wish I knew what they were saying.
Thoughts?
I hope we get to see Iruka fighting some soun/sand-nins while protecting the kids
Oh, and I dont like how they did Tayuya, she was supposed to be bluehaired since she's the north gate v_v
Btw, Oro and the 3th were as fast as sakura doing handseals
I actually was pretty disappointed by this episode. The whole stare off between Orochimaru and Sandaime could have been shortened to less than the 15min it was. I also felt that the flashbacks involving Konohamaru were totally unnecessary and flashbacks of Oro and Sarutobi as pupil and sensei would have been more relavent.
On the plus side we finally got to see an episode where Gai didn't look like a total fruit.
Yeah last episode he looked like an idiot. Kakashi was executing speed attacks and Gai just was doing Bruce Lee impressions. This episode he did his speed dash punch, that send that Sound-nin through the wall.
Also I think we can now confirm that the White Cloaked ANBU isn't Anko. He has a male voice. Someone in the Naruto Anime forum thought it was her, since we don't see her at all anymore in the manga after this.
I don't remember that mudslide stuff happening in the manga either...the rest of the fight was alright though. I have been waiting for this for a while.
Yeah that damn Konohamaru always gets mixed up in episodes we least want to be hearing from him.. But still was cool with all the hand seals and wierd names of jutsusI really want some flashys of Orochimaru from before. But I guess they are comming up real soon..
Yeah I can't wait to see the flashback scene where Sarutobi thinks of his past.
It will probably show a young Sarutobi with the 1st and 2nd, then the young Sannins taking the same test that Team 7 took, but with Sarutobi.
Was that the one where Jiraiya called Tsunade a 'Flat chested bitch'? That was just too funny.

that makes me want to re read those chapters. man I wish I had all the manga in book form... would make for good bed reading material
Yeah thats the one. Of course he gets tied to the log like Naruto, and Orochimaru and Tsunade kind of mock him.
Then he tells Sarutobi about his peeping skills, and Sarutobi says he will go with him next time to peep, to see if he is telling the truth.

That's easy enough, all you need is a laser printer, a binder, and a lot of time.
I think I know precisely what I mean
when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
btw i havn't watched the raw, but if they follow the manga the summoning would come in the same chapter as the anime ended last ep so i wouldn't say they've sped it up
ah thats true about handseal speed, in the manga i got the impression that they were lightning speed as they were one single panel and several hand movements, that thought came into my mind when i saw them executing jutsus
I liked this episode. It seems to be moving right alongside the speed of the manga. They inserted the extra fight exchange between Hokage and Orochimaru along with the Konohamaru flashback. They seemed cool though, kind of like "well-done" additions.
yeah she isn't as useless as the anime fanboys think.
personally the Orochimaru flashback in which hes experimenting is probably my favourite of all flashbacks, it just yells cool
pity thats not in this ep
Good episode. I have a question though, since I dont read the manga. Is was the third coffin going to be the 4th?
yep
It was a good thing Sarutobi cancelled it too, or else he would have a shit load of problems.
Oh and after you read this, stay out of this forum. You are going to get so much stuff ruined for you. Hang out in the regular Naruto one.
yeah this forum contains spoilers, better to stick to just the plain naruto anime one
Nah, I dont care that I know what is going to happen. Actions speak louder then world, I like to see how things unfold. It does not really spoil anything, since most of it is either obvious or so ambiguous I would miss it anyway.
extra jutsu echange was kind of cool, next ep will almost totally be about naruto team trying to shake of sound only the end will have Oro sticking those kunai's in the back of the 1st and 2nds head, oh by the way the cloaked ANBU is obviously Kabuto you can tell by his voice any fool who thought it was Anko is badly mistaken
