would it have been any more grotesque if they didnt censor that?

My first impression was censorship, but on the other hand manga illustrators these days pack lots of stuff into images and sometimes it takes you a few second to figure out what you're looking at. In animation things have got to be less busy because it's moving and they don't want you to have to pause to figure out what you're looking at--it's possible they were being good animators and it has nothing to do with how nasty the bones are (but then again it could be they are just pussies).

no... lol they are not "unskilled". If they are unskilled why the fuck would the company hire them... the main reason is that they want to fill up the 20 minutes per episode requirement. Which is ok for me at least... since kimi is such a cool character.

So are you saying you like the Seoul Studio animations? You think they have skill? Suggest you rewatch the Naruto vs Kiba fight. The animation teams for Naruto seem pretty amateur in all but a handful of episodes. Gainax has done a good job and Nara Studios is "decent" most of the time. Some of Nara's eps are good though, such as episode 19, which is the only episode in Naruto that has had GOOD animation so far (even though none of the CG blended in well one bit).

Judging from the preview, though, Lee's fight in the next episode should have some good animation.

Does anybody else think that Shikamaru and Tayuya would be a great match? After seeing this episode I'm all for Shikamaru + Tayuya. They're both great strategists (she probably likes Shougi too) and after this episode they have a new found respect for each other. That way Shikamaru can end up marrying a "loud mouth" woman just like his dad!

its all about the budget son... Obviously some eps are going to look better, most recently would be the neji fight. Oh btw you miss understood the main point my post. Iike i said b4 they are just trying to fill up the 20 mins. Im not even going to bother to respond anymore" which animation team is better debate". Becacus you dont know how much is spent, and time is given to the teams. It's not fair to judge teams just by your own perspective without any trustworthy background info.

[Shinigami]

AonE's Version is out on torrents page

[Assertn]

you're supposed to use the RELEASE INFO topic for posting release info

[DarthEnderX]

PREVIEW SPOILERS!!!









I think it would be awsome if "they" was not just Lee, but also Shino, cause someone still has to go and fight Sakon. Then we could just call this entire story arc "the girls are totally fucking useless!"

[Zoels]

this is soo great. like 2 more episodes and ill be unspoiled!! Ive been waiting like a year for this

[basey44]

it wont be shino, thatd just be dumb, he couldnt even defeat the sand let alone the sound 4

ive got a feeling its the sand, otherwise what would be the point of the sand flashback and kibas fear when he smelled them

I was under the impression that Studio Pierrot did the animations. Maybe there is something I am not getting.

I agree with you in the part that animators don't put as much detail as manga artists do. Currently I am reading the manga Nausicaa and the Valley of Wind and just recently I saw a preview for the movie. The movie has like only %10 detail the manga has.

Kankuro went down before him... for a genin, Shino is very strong. He just got to face someone who should already have been chuunin (the sand village delayed their taking of the chuunin exam, IIRC).

[lum]

.... in naruto, a freakin genin can beat a jounin, so y can't shino beat the sound 4? i mean come on, no one EVER dies in this, ie. the kids. so if kishimoto decides to have a fight between naruto or any of the 50 other main characters, the good guy will win. maybe after takin some pill or potion that WOULD KILL HIM, that makes him JUST STRONG ENUF to beat the "bad guy" then SOMEHOW, he ends up NOT DEAD, NARUTO STYLE!!! my innovation for this is due to chouji not dying after he took a death pill.

naruto's target audience is aimed at 8-14 yr old kids,(i'd like it much more if i was that age, i believe) but other ppl ages watch it too, just that for someone more intelligent u'd realise how simple this story is, and how "unreal, unrealistic" this world is. and no i'm not talking bout the super power ninjas/powers, but the story/plot. but iguess the action keeps most ppl there.


and FOR WEAKEST ANBU, there are unskilled teams, watch some anime and even amatuers like you can tell the difference, right now, the most obvious is mahou sensei negima, then read the manga, and u;ll see how fucked up the animation is. if that's not called unskilled, then i dont' know wat is

please shut up.
Every single point you tried to make is wrong. Not one thing you said was accurate.

[basey44]

hahaha so true~~~ sry lum i stop reading your post after "a freakin genin can beat a jounin"

[lum]

one of the jump fiestas, sorry for the spelling.
and it's the rain or mist country jounin (something to do wif goin into a waterfall to enter), the eps was on the special water.(haven't watched for a long time, so can't remember)
as for the swearin i applogize as i had a bad day. also, fine, maybe i should be more specific, none of the naruto age characters die.

also, sam, i have a few friends from japan, and they told me naruto's most popular with the 8-14 yearold market. if my friend gave me wrong info, then i guess i'm wrong, but what makes you think/know naruto isn't?
so basically, i dun think i have said anything wrong as they're either my opinions or they're wat i have seen in the anime and i can tell you episode references.

[basey44]

hahahaha i just realised that they added new stuff into the intro, so either everyone else noticed but didnt tell me or im the first to notice

kimis in there and so is oros new bod, lol i looked back and this happened back in ep 120, and no body told me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

They did the same thing in the previous intro by adding Tsunade after she was introduced in the story, and since then I've been watching for sneaky intro changes. I think a lot of us nerdutards recognized the change immediately [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

[Shanekun]

Well good ep. I like the matching Shikamaru + Tayuya, too. First they are mor eor less equally in using their minds and second.. wel Shika already got a good hold of her to test out [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] (remember? "those feel just like real hands" when shika did the shadow hand thingy. and they were placed on.. suspicios... places [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] wouldn't be surprised if he has feeeling in them too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] )
