Yeah, they really should give Kurenai and Asuma more screen time. Why did they have to pitch them against Itachi-nii-chan and fishface right of the bat?
Asuma's hand weapons are pretty neat, now that we know that he uses chackra to cut and not exactly the blade.
Kurenai's genjutsu was pretty cool with her disappearing into thin air.
Good to see the two of them on a date. Why did they cut that line from the manga?
And finally we learned where Hinata learned to blush. heh, heh
Best of all, we now can say their names! Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame.
