I don't have to have nonstop action every episode, as long as it doesn't seem like teh writers are just stalling for time. This was a nice developmental episode, and explained some concepts of the Narutoverse, so I'm cool with it, especially after naruto develops his new jutsu!

hm, none of the akatsuki scenes were shown, i guess theyre gonna save those for after the filler. Also, the order of the training scenes was totally mixed around for seemingly no reason at all. o.O so are they just gonna interrupt the training for the filler arc or wil the story center on one of the other teams for a nice change of pace and just show naruto in training every once in awhile? I think I'd prefer the latter, we don't need naruto in EVERY arc. Especially if its filler, cause he's weaker and dumber than ever in filler arcs. =/

The following episodes better not be like earlier episodes where he's only strong in certain episodes/movies and really weak at all the other times.

I really enjoyed this ep. It filled in a lot of the Narutoverse, like the nature of Kage Bushin and if Kakashi learned Kage Bushin on his own, or if he used Sharingan to learn it (minor detail, but interesting nonwithstanding). Sure, maybe not a lot of story progression, but it was an interesting episode.

Wasn't as bad I imagined, they could have shortened out the explanation.
Looks like fillers will start in the next episode, hope they aren't very long.
Btw, I really like this new OP =)

Naruto wasn't meant to be the sharpest tool in the shed straight from the beginning.

They'll probably split his training into several episodes during the fillers. That's pretty much what they did in the mango.

The animation in this episode was definitely a very large improvement compared to the previous episodes.

I've always hated training episodes but this one did a good amount of explaining in the time it had, so hopefully it will go faster than expected but sadly it looks like we'll have fillers in-between. ^_^

Hmm I thought the episode was pretty good in my opinion. It was VERY close to how it happened in the manga and the pacing somewhat was improve a bit. Not to mention the newly improved wide screening ^^.

As for the up coming fillers, it better be about Asuma dammit!!!

Loved this ep, always liked the logic episodes that explain shiz thats not obvious like powers and ninjutsu. its better than 30 mins of common sense talk and stare downs leading to 2 mins of actual fight sequences. longer fight sequences and more story revealation would make this so much better. i dont follow the manga so it would be better.

Exactly what I thought. This episode provided some good insight into the things you an do with chakara and techniques. Really liked this episode, and probably the best episode in AGES!

I didn't mind this episode, but I don't think I could take too many explanation eps in a row, although they do make for a nice change of pace every now and again.

I thought it was a good episode. If you are a supporter of the Naruto and Hinata pairing they give you some support by having Naruto kind of insult Sakura when he wakes up( I saw a translation where he called her an Ugly Whore but others have said he told her she was irritating).

When Kakashi wondered how the hell did Jiraya manage to teach Naruto Rasengan I LOLed cuz I remembered how Jiraya actually tought him that and yea it was funny remembering old times when Naruto was still a kid, but even if his appearance changed he still has the same brains, or at least this is what this episode inspired me to think, lol. xD

I mean... c'mon ... they made him look rather dimwit...

Sasuke would've understood Kakashi from half word xD... but I guess Naruto wouldn't be himself if he would act like he's smart! xD ... jk and being a bit evil...

I'm not gonna drop this anime but the fact that it goes verrry slow is damn annoying...

So I guess there going to change the whole anime, and not follow the manga now, because the training takes place in the manga, or is Naruto going to stop training? Or will he keep training and use his new technique in the filler arc. This is going way off from the manga, and will change alot of stuff, with the next cannon arc, if he continues his training.

Actually, having a filler arc in this training arc is good for nothing. Imagine that you're just going to watch an entire 2-3episodes of training arc. It's better to throw off some fillers to make the episode not just training boring episodes. But rather will have some action and can make other characters (other teams) to have screentime as well. If you're a manga reader like me, isn't it good to see something you haven't read in the manga? It can make us not know what's gonna happen. And that's one good thing about fillers. The only bad thing about filler is that if the filler arc is just boring as hell (like the one in the Naruto, mission filler arcs). But, in BLEACH Bounto arc w/c is a filler, it isn't boring as hell right?! XD

So, it's a good thing to have this filler thrown out while Naruto is training.

Yeah, I like the training bits cause it feels like the start of the manga once again. Naruto is so loveable in his slowness.

But the filler arc is starting and who knows how long that will take? It better not be another year. I can't stand the fillers. Even if it does mean extra Sai appearances.

Eh, it was an okay episode.
A lot of explaining on Kakashi's part but I guess that makes sense since Naruto's going to learn a new technique. Hopefully we won't have to see his entire training thing cause that might take a long time~ Fillers will be starting a couple of episodes - hoping they're decent.

Love the new opening - best one yet :)

this episode started off great, especially with sakura waking up naruto, and naruto's only response while coming from half sleep is "ugly whore", i don't care who you are, thats hysterical!!!! rofl, plus naruto begins his new training regiment using kage bunshin to gain a new ultimate jutsu
