Lee got sober a bit too soon.

Kimi's technique is a little flawed on the science half of it. If he's transfering all the calcium from his body to make spikes outside, then there mustn't be much calcium inside his body. Unless he can create calcium out of nothing or perform nuclear fission/fusion inside his body, his body should collapse into a pile of saggy skin. It's one thing to move bones around, but it's another to make protruding spikes out of bone.

And I still think Shikamaru should've felt Tayuya up with the shadow hand.

hey, remember the LAST time we tried to apply science to naruto? yeah, it ended up being pretty lame -_-

just for the record, the only time we've seen kimimaro extrude a bone that didnt go back into his body was the bone sword

man a damn cool ep, and about damn time too....damn!

by far teh best fight since lee vs gaara. i love taijutsu fights. and drunk lee = hilarious!

this is officially the new ep im gonna show ppl to get them into naruto. as for teh sand nins, it'll be kool to see how they do. wonder if gaara's gonna be like vageta now (pardon the reference), a good guy but still a badass, or if hes all lame.

i think kiba should've just died. hes completly useless. it wouldve been better to have shino, plus the whole thing with kankuro would've worked out better too since all the other sand nins save the person they fought previosuly

[DarthEnderX]

Yeah, I wonder how Lee feels being saved by the guy that crippled him and almost ruined his entire life.

[chinkieboii]

i cant get over Rock Lee's brilliant shinobi plan. where did this stroke of genius come from? maybe sake makes you smarter.

i couldnt stop laughing for like 20 minutes.

[Mut]

Your name is offensive. I already don't like you.

[miaka]

hey chinkie. welcome to gotwoot i see that you new.... ^^ i m totally with you... lee's a genius ... lol.. i think his genius comes from hard work.. @_@ and whoever thought rock lee is a genius druken fist fighter....

[Mr.X]

i know chink is something to do with asians but what does it mean? i'm asian....is it stupid that i don't know what it means?

anyway, lee got owned, and the gaara's outfit looks good in color.

[pakman]

its making fun of our chinky eyes... yea im asian too

o by the way i think that gaaras suit looked kinda gay temaris looked cooler tho

[MFauli]

Erm, one thing for Kimimarou´s ability:

Does he have the ultimate healing power?
When the bones are breaking through his flesh and skin...
And then, when they "go back inside", the skin, and i really think the flesh, too, is as if there had never been a "wound".

What do you think abut this?
Or is that another kind of "Naruto-series logic" ?

[potentialflip]

think of kimamaro as a wolverine except with things sticking out everywhere instead of just claws.
*chink is referred towards chinese people and for sum odd reason they find it offensive. kind of like jap with japanese.
heh wonder when those three were finally going to show up. shikamouru poor guy always having to deal with women. first he fights one then one saves him. boy has to take a blow to the guys pride. i've been waiting a good while for this and yay finally the wait is over.

My guess would be that it was only drawn this way, the manga is probably much more violent and might leave the wounds in. However I would not assume he heals quickly because of this.

Awesome episode!! There was too much jumping around between the different fights but what an ending! How convenient that there are 3 sand, 3 konoha, and 3 sound shinoji. I don't think I can wait a week to see what happens next.

I was hoping to seeing more drunken fist though. How the heck did Lee get sober so fast? What a bummer.

For a second there I thought Shikamaru's next brilliant plan would be to use his shadow hand to "cop a feel". That would certainly distract Tayuya and give me the chance to make his move!

I guess if Lee can get drunk from a few sips of sake, he can get sobered up just as quickly [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

[kaigan]

fucking awesome episode.

chink : A derogatory term for a Chinese person, also Chinkey, Chinkie, Chinky. The term is thought to have come from a mispronunciation of the Chinese word Chung-Kuo, meaning China.

i hope you are chinese.

Look on this site for all your racist needs. Also decribes slang.

[LobsterMagnet]

That was great, I just finished watching the episode and it was fantastic, the actual fight was much better then it was in the manga. Also for all of you anime watchers who are wondering why Kimmimaro dosen't have any woulds from the bone's comming out of his body read the manga.

You don't have to read the whole thing but you owe it to yourselfves to see the less censored version. It was great because blood was splattered all about as Kimmimaro starts ripping out his bones. Really good stuff, probably my only complaint about the kimimaro stuff is that it's been greatly censored in comparison to the manga.

rofl, Lee is Kimimaro's biaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatch.

Pffft more like the other way around, he had to go lvl 1 just to match up with drunkin Lee.

That's like saying, Lee had to get drunk to match up with a no curse seal Kimimaro.

Yea well ummm Kimi still sucks :-p. That dance of the pine looks like a reject low budget kiatin.




LMAO at Neji ready to hit drunkin Lee with the 64hands.

[Mut]

The dance of the pines wasn't suppose to spin like that... The animators keep fucking everything up.

[RasenDori]

am i the only that hated the first half of this episode? compared to the manga, the drunken lee seemed out of character. he supposed to go into a drunken rage... not act like a complete dumbass. speakingo of dumbasses, what about kimimaro. i hated that last change they made in the previous episode where lee ask kimi to let him drink his medicine before he killed him. in the manga, they werent even close we lee requested the time out. in the world of ninjas you dont spare you oponents life so they can take medication... what if its like choujis medication? the all this bullshit tiwh kimi trying to decern what the hell happened, and falling for lees stupid tricks. i was never too big of a kimimaro fan, but i have always admited that he was badass... but this episode did him injustice. manga kimimaro = extreme badass. anime kimimaro = bumbuling idiot.

[Assertn]

i liked it better with him spinning.....

but just to confirm the suspicions people have about the whole wound thing....
yes in the manga, they actually show his skin split where a bone is leaving his body, but with the bone sword, for example, the wound healed up immediately after the bone is pulled out.


RasenDori, you gotta be more open minded about it, for some people, the anime just never quite matches up to the manga...but sometimes thats just because they dont WANT it to match up. Personally, I think the anime version fit lee's character MUCH better than the manga version ever did. In fact, I would almost say that the producers have a better sense of how a wasted lee would act moreso than kishimoto himself would.

Of course, it also helps to experience first-hand the way people act when they're drunk based on their normal personalities.

[Mae]

Lee and Kimi's fight was fun though... best in a while. It wouldn't have been nearly so hilarious if Kimi hadn't taken it all so seriously: "Hmm... I wonder if he is asleep..." (twice) "Could he be....drunk?" and then the third time approaching his cautiously and standing there with his sword pointed at his nose just to check... That made the fight IMO. I just wonder how they'll translate this when it goes on cartoon network (don't really want to think about it).

It was a little annoying the way they stretched Shikamaru and Kiba's fights, but it could have been worse (Oro and the Third), and it payed off in the end. I actually like Kiba better now that he's lost, it gets boring if everyone wins all the time.

And although it's off-topic I have to link this for all those Uchiha fans out there. Literally made me LOL... and if anyone has a link to the song I'd appreciate it.
