An alright episode... lots of information, but no action.
At the beginning they reminded me that Jounin know at least 2 elements so now I'm wondering Neji and Shikamaru's elements. The next episode looks good, but 2 weeks again? o_O

Yeah, this one was decent. They spent a good portion of the time setting Sora's back story, which I imagine will play a big part in the upcoming storyline. The badguys are rolling into Konoha next week, so that should be interesting. And then there's the whole "Danzou subplot"... Lots of setup. Here's hoping the next episode is good.

Ugh fillers. Although I did like that they focused alittle bit on Asuma and Kurenai. Hehe. x3
The ending bit was hillarious with Yamamoto complaining to Asuma about everything, lol.

Was okay.
Next episode july 3rd, but is it going to be a double episode again?
Since it's called naruto shippuuden special and all specials before were doubles....

For a second I thought Sora had a Bijuu in him xDD

In any case, I can't wait to see next episode, because something might actually happen action wise. Too bad we'll have to wait two weeks.

Well, this episode was certainly a step down from the previous ones. And for us manga readers (major spoiler if you don't read the manga):



But yeah, best part of the episode was the OP. ^_^

Kinda boring imo, too much of just talking. Hopefully it will pick up next episode though.

Kazuma what have you done.
And another long wait for next episode? I don't quite get it, but ok, I guess naruto needs time to comprehend what has just happened.

"Is he going to start singing now! ROFL,

liked how Yamamoto made his fingers into a strirring spoon, using ninjistu for normal stuff is well funny. i niether hate or like Sora, he just isnt important to em at all.

Lots of action, but it's too boring because of no action.

Pure talk and information.

This was a pretty good episode~
I guess learning more about Sora's past was needed - everything practically implied a bijuu (just an opinion). And the Asuma and Kurenai moment was sweet. Best part of this episode had to be the ending - Yamato drunk!~ xD



Amazing sig set thanks to -DraGonZ-

Good stuff, I thought. I like they are trying to set things up a bit before throwing action in. I guess the average shounen fan doesn't like this, though. The problem I have is the repetitiveness of this plot, but it's a bit better executed than normally I have to say.

Cool episode, but isn't it too much info for only one episode? I mean, Asuma helped Sora and kinda assured him that his father wasn't so bad, then the other guy comes and says that Asuma killed his father, then Danzou disapears... Too much stuff going on...
Asuma and Yamato at the end was so hillarious LMAO. Yamato's voice was the best BAHAHAHA

Wow, I can't believe that I just noticed it now. That dude from the flashbacks with jacket is Asuma. He looks like a homeless man back then. Asuma is really a nice guy. He is good with Kurenai :D
Drunk Yamato ahahaha. I like how he used his wood element to stir his drink.
