I was wondering what the animators were going to show in the upcoming episodes of Naruto. For a long time I had avoided the manga, so I could just enjoy the show. But, the story line drew me in too well, and I finally buckled and read up to 241. The fight between Sasuke and Naruto however, heck even Neji's fight, made me wonder how much gore and violence they will animate.

They didn't animate Kakashi putting his arm through Haku, or Orochimaru's Ossuary, with the bodies hanging from the ceiling. There are somethings though, coming up in the show, that I think you have to animate or else it's just going to look bad. Anything with Kimmiaro is a good example, and also Sasuke punching right Naruto in their fight.

Like I said, I think they have to animate it all, because Kimmiaro's moves will definitely look odd or be comepletely redone, and I think ithe best way to show that Sasuke meant business against Naruto, was to blow right through his shoulder.

I don't know, random rambling, but does anyone else think they may ease up on the blood and gore that's coming up?
