Episode 71 Discussion.

[ricefarmer]

this ep was good because if some1 else animated it. the animation wouldn't be as good. just like ep 30 its all intentional. the animation is great the quality kinda bad

[Power PMV]

maybe 72 has horrible graphics too. So you better get your Naruto fix at its proper time.

[Orion Guardian]

hmm the animation was not really good, but there are some eps out there which ware far worse....remeber the last ep oif the kiba vs Naruto fight? the part _after_ the fight....
*brrr* really sucking....but this ep was only a little weird, u are overreaction, especially as u cannot change it...

[rleland]

maybe the next few months of episodes will have horrible graphics and you should just go read the manga instead of complaining that something you got without paying someone to make it isn't up to the quality you wanted

[Larz]

i think a lot of people are confusing animation and art.

The animation on 71 was excellent. Aka, the fluidity and choreography of the fight and everything was great.

Now, the art was kind of weird. Aka, some characters and stuff drawn rather odd.

[rEkKaShInObI]

C'mon guys, was it that horrid? It wasn't to bad though was it?

[villin]

This level of artwork does not belong in one of the most important, if not the most important, battles to date in the anime. In a filler episode we may not like it but we can overlook it but in an ep that is vital to the storyline its just unacceptable.

I don&#39;t think so, at least orochimaru got his cheek bones back..





This is actually good drawing according to me




Episode 72 is prolly much better then 71..

That thing doesn&#39;t even look like Orochimaru, but daym.... ugliest thing ive ever seen... I hope the 3rd kills it.

[esconaruto]

why do they decide in all the good eps to use this team first time was oro vs saskue in the forest and now why not use the team that did the rock lee gaara fight?

Read the ending credits, and look for the name in english, that&#39;s the name of the animation team. The team that did the Gaara VS Lee fight and the Orochimaru Vs Sasuke fight helped made this episode-aka Nara Animation Studios. But another group, Gainax studios helped made this episode too.
I believe Nara animation studios did the first season of Naruto too. I guess when it comes to action filled episodes, they lower the quality of drawings and what not. Also, I betcha there drawing the rest of the episodes in this saga. There a busy team, they probaly don&#39;t have time to make sure everything is &quot;perfect&quot;.

[bender83j]

the reason that he is able to take on them is becuase the 1st and second are just puppets. Ochimaru has to control what they do and he can&#39;t control thier techneques as well as they could when they where alive.

[itachi_]

What do you think that the next episode will show the most?? the hokage fight or sasuke vs gaara etc... or some other event.

[Vagabond]

I think it will flip back and forth between hokage vs oro and sasuke vs. temari and kankuro(since gaara is unconscious).

Oh and about Sandaime height. He is supposed to be that short. Somewhere on Narutoguide they have a height chart and it show sandaime is slightly taller than Naruto.

[SaSuKeRuLeS]

Orochimaru was too damn freaky at the end of that epidsode. My god is he gay or is he the anime version of Michael Jackson?

[RaZzy]

looks a bit like frieza

but i really liked that episode ... same graphics/animation as episode 30
you liked episode 30 ??
it didn&#39;t look right at the part where oro and hokage are fighting with the sword and the pole .. but the rest looked good.. expecially at the beginning of the fight.. all the jutsu&#39;s

itachi_: i have to dissapoint you, episode 72 will look bad. There are almost no shadows/highlights on orochimaru, same goes for the picture with the kids. Also there&#39;s almost no animation in the preview. And just look how the hokage&#39;s face is drawn.. It isn&#39;t as bad as episode 65, but more like episode 54.

[itsgalf]

hmmm, I wonder why Jaraiya still had bushy white hair when he was young...

[bender83j]

Absolutly awsome episode. More action then normal and less explinaion. the third kicks ass. I don&#39;t understand why he didn&#39;t leave that Monkey king Enma in its normal form, because he was kicking ass in that form. he didn&#39;t do to much in his other. this episode was so good it compaires the the fight between gara and Lee
