| This filler was quite nice. I love new ED song. |
| The new Opening was shit. I was so disappointed. But the new Ending was AMAZING. I love UNLIMITS. Looks like they are going to recap whats happened so far, and I love that idea. This episode took me back to first starting Naruto. Loved it. |

| Fillers again, seems too soon, not that long since last filler ended. I sort of enjoyed first half. Opening was horrendous |
| So much to say: Surprisingly, great episode.. they remade the fights and added extra actual action and threw away all the lame talking, exactly how episodes 5 & 6 should've been. Good animation, although young naruto's head is much bigger than his body, and 12-year old Naruto suffers the opposite problem. I'll always prefer Shippuden's music but it felt really nostalgic listening to Part 1 tracks. The opening was the opposite of the old one, good animation, shitty song. Seriously this is pretty much the final arc, add serious songs that fit the mood The ending song was amazing, 10/10. For a recap episode, loved it. I'm actually not gonna skip the next 3. 4/5 |

| Usually I'm the first one to get pissed off about fillers, but I've gotta be honest, this was pretty cool. First off, it's only gonna be four weeks, and we all know that fillers can go on for MUCH longer than that. More importantly though, I'm actually kinda into this, it's more like an official abridged series (because two unofficial ones already exist) with sweet animation highlighting all the best parts of the series. |
  |
| It looks like it will be recap episodes, and not actual fillers, however I actually enjoy them... And I gotta say that I loved that new ending, and it does seem to suggest NaruHina and SasuSaku, which I am totally for! |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| Normally I never complain about OPs s but this... I think i've never ever seen a worst OP Theme then this one here... |
 |
     |
| I enjoyed it, recap ;) It reminds me that it's already ten years of anime, and almost four years since I started watching it. The best things about this ep were old, good OSTs, which I love so much. I hope next week we'll get some Haku <3 Btw, I usually love Naru ops&ends but this one is... Kinda feels like Seishun Kyosokyoku, though it was still better IMO. I liked previous one better. Same with ending, which is pretty good (but UNLIMITS song Haruka Kanata for Bleach was better), but still not as good as By My Side and Place To Try, which were DAMN good. I'm a little disappointed :| 4/5 |
  |
| I enjoyed the detalied life of naruto(when he was little ) on this ep :) ... anyway those are just some fillers* that i hate -.- ... About the OP mm I can say that i like it but the music SUCKS! ...anyway i love the ED (how naruto is controling his atribute :>) |
 note: Psychopath is my name on a Game so this sig is mine . no copy/paste :) |
| filler where they add new lore and rewrite minor things, honestly i was hoping they wouldn't cut the part where kakashi acts like hes about to kill them after sasuke gives naruto his lunch...but they did at least the rewritten footage in ultimate storm generations was tasteful and kept the "must haves" new opening is bleh 0 improvement from previous, new ending is not bad to pretty good at least the bleach openings, even filler, were still decent, imo naruto hasnt had a good opening since Lovers |
| Let the bitching begin.... The new OP reminds of the 6th Naruto one. Ending was amazing. I consider the ED to be the actual OP I love seeing old Naruto. Reminds me back when i barely started watching it. I miss the old soundtrack. |
| . |
| Fillers... D: |
 |
| the ending LITERALLY made it for me. song and animation were spectacular! that is it |
     |
| That ending is pretty damn good though. I forgot the last time I watched a Naruto ending. |

I'm actually not gonna skip the next 3. 4/5 I don't think this is the final arc, kishimoto never mentioned anything bout the war being the final arc of the story. He just said that "naruto is coming close to its end and i hope you all enjoy its final moments but i still have lots of story to cover and the ending is not going to change, but trying to get to that specified ending is going to be the challenge" or something close along those lines. That was only last year. My bet is their is probably one final arc after the war arc, usually in manga, they mentioned on the cover pages that the arc would be the final of the story and kishi didn't do that. But the war is probably one of the most significant story arcs in the series thats for sure. Also we will be seeing multiple openings/endings through out this arc in any case, hopefully the 2nd opening is better. Maybe if were lucky this opening is only for the filler arc lol, but thats wishful thinking. I am very dissapointed though in the opening they chose, especially considering some of the high value moments that are coming in the story. Its just not suitable at all. |

| Not gunna lie, wasn't as bas as I expected it to be. I rather see this than those really random fillers. I also really want to see the Zabuza and Haku fight again! :p |

| FILLERS @$^!$&* SUCK |

| Another wasted episode... |
 |
| Lol, I forget everything I watched in part 1 YEARS ago anyways, so I think it's kinda nice to see it with a fresh coat of paint, as opposed to people who probably marathoned Naruto long after the anime was done. Also, the new OP doesn't bother me too much I guess... strange song but better animation. I love the ED though. Such good scenes that give me nostalgia. Music is pretty good too. I feel like the EDs in Naruto are almost ALWAYS better than the OP nowadays(especially Place to Try and By My Side, those were DAMN good). |

| All I got from this is "Oh great, a month of filler. :(" |
 |
| New OP , new ED, same ol' shit in between. |
 |
| I guess I'm one of the few who see something to appreciate here. This isn't nearly as bad as watching the same 2 minute flashback for 6 episodes straight... But this stuff happened 10 years ago. 10! While I'm not sure the current war arch is the very end, I am sure we're very damned close to it, and I think a little recap on 10 years of canon isn't something to dread. Plus, they're hitting the big plots points, giving us the action, AND reanimating it all. I'm cool with this. |

| Where do you guys watch this episode? Hulu? Taka subs are way behind. |
| The first scenes when Naruto and Sasuke are very young, those are the original things, it was from the manga. And the others, you know, it is all flashbacks. God, how nostalgic is Kakashi. His reading of that book is a freaking icon. He is one of my favorite Naruto characters. The OP was quite bad. Though I like this "song" better than the previous one. And kudos to the one who made the ending. Sasuke vs Naruto = full of win. This is a great time to relive and remember those nostalgic Naruto moments. I would love it if they had just started the war, but these flashbacks fillers are not that bad. |

| Nice to see how they all seem happy and cheery upon the prospect of war.... yeah, that OP choice was poor to say the least ¬¬ Also, can't stand any more recaps from this show, I'll be back in 4 weeks or so like a big part of the forum. |
| "There is no stupid questions, only stupid people." |
| not bad... |
| Ok, what the heck is wrong with this awfull animation? o.O I hope they're lazy 'cause it's a filler episode, if the war is going to be drawn like this Imma going to switch to reading manga, seriosly. >__> |
| Filled me with nostalgia |
 |
| You guys do know that part of this flash back is actually in the original cannon story. Your so busy complaining bout it that i bet you never caught that. Some of the flash back shown is new footage. Although the time in which it takes place is very different in the manga. In any case, i like these episodes, its a welcome relief to see all of team 7 again, especially when you factor in whats coming in the future of the story. Its also nice to see it displayed in a away that we have never saw before with the new quality animation. |

| Oh great, another filler. I hope that we wont have a lot of them coming. |
 |
| yeah, i thought it was just a recap but then didn't remember seeing that fight with naruto and sasuke. thankfully ill be watching the next 3 episodes hoping to see that they add new stuff. their animation is definitely a step up in these episodes as well. and the part where naruto asks the third about his parents.. idk when that scene took place in the manga but yea. it was nice seeing it since i've never read the manga. |

| cute episode. but the OP song is um... terrible. Liked the rest of the episode though. Nice seeing him as a kid again. And I love the OST from the old Naruto! <3 |
| -Just Believe- |
| A filler episode of when Naruto fell in love with Sasuke. New opening looks great to me. |
| "Definitely today!" *gets beat up by Sasuke* "Hn!" "Definitely today!" *gets beat up by Sasuke* "Hn!" "Defininitely today!" *gets beat up by Chouji* "Even Chouji!" XDD the first half was enjoyable, definitely some new scenes. And the best thing about the epi is the OST from the first part. And the animation is great. |
 |
| That was really nice :) The pacing was wonderful and I really enjoy the idea of a recap over a month period. I really miss Sasuke like this, he was a beast (he still is, but here he was a good beast :P). I can't wait to see the next episode. I loved the Chuunin Exams, they were so interesting from start to finish. About the OP: Really can't stand it. I was honestly starting to enjoy the last one, but this one is just a fail. I don't like the style of the singer's voice... About the ED: Loved it! The Sakura and Hinata scenes were refreshing, and the very last frame was cute with Naruto and Sasuke. I prefer the old one better still though. Probably because of the beautiful video, and the amazing song. This one is still nice though. I like the whole Sasuke and Naruto thing, it's beautiful. I just can't get over how in the last opening Naruto went into the dark for Sasuke. That was truly wonderful :D |
| Filler arc nooooooooooooo |
| More filler blah. :P |
