Wow. Bravo to the guy who called that Gaara, et. al. making another appearance.

Two of the pairups are absolute ironies.

1> Lee and Gara
2> Shikamaru and Tamari

since they fought against each other. hopefully they'll all team up to fight the remaining sound. Gaara will be especially interesting to see if he's changed like Neji, and his power vs. Kimmaro is certainly well-matched.

Too bad Shikamaru got saved by a _girl_.. not that it's wrong or anything <g>
