I honestly don't mind flashbacks, they are more interesting and amusing than made up fillers anyway. At least flashbacks are more substantive to the real plot and gives us perspective.

I actually liked the flash backs, help you understand whats going on in Naruto's mind and what he's going to do when he does meet Sasuke. Plus I loved seeing my boy Pervy Sage, I miss him in Naruto.

I also enjoyed watching this episode, I think the flashback shown were more interesting/ better handled than the previous episode (thou that might be my dislike of sakura speaking).
I love the story of naruto, it makes me cry every time. Friendship and hardships.. it made shed a couple of tears at times, specially on the Jiraya flashback ;-;
That said, this doesn't mean that I am for flashbacks >.>
Flashbacks don't really bug me but they are tedious because we are waiting a week for some plot movement D;
And it seems like next week will be kakashi's flashbacks.. (or sasuke's) Oh please, let it not be both! D:

As for the non-flashback content, I can't imagine how Yamato will react once Naruto escaped :P I bet it will be hilarious c: With, of course, some thinking of what kakashi will think/ do to him (x

manga is so ahead of anime, the 2 reasons why they are puting so many fillers are:
1. some issues in the studio (it saves em a lot of work using past video)
2. they won't be forced to start "pure filler episodes"/"filler arc" soon

Imo it's a good idea, but Naruto/Sakura flashbacks were shown up like 10 times and it's getting really annoying...

The flash back really runied it , but luckily it wasnt that long so it wasnt too bad. I just skipped it.
I liked how things are going now, and of course Sakura just keeps getting weaker and weaker. She could of actually killed him if she didnt stop. useless woman. I thought there would be more of a fight between Kakashi and Sasuke...
Hopefully next week there will not be any flash backs and hard core fights start happening. With team work.
I wonder what till happen to sasuke since he is not as strong cause hes lost his eye sight a bit...

Sasuke's hatred for his brother turned out to be the opposite
Leaf village held responsible for annihilation of Uchiha clan.
Now Sasuke seek revenge against the leaf.
What will naruto do? Now only he understand sasuke's pain.

Damn! This episode was like purely flashbacks.
Flashbacks that we've seen countless times.
No wonder we had great episodes the previous weeks. >_<

Well, the preview. at least, seems to be interesting.
(with more flashbacks, i presume)

-Lot of flashbacks (and the same ones too). I'm assuming they did that because they're scared that they'll catch up to the manga soon.

Meh episode.

"Let's make useless recaps."

Meh.

That.

So, what... is it Sasuke's turn for flashbacks next week? Or maybe Kakashi? Or even Sai? We've had one episode of Sakura's flashbacks, and one of Naruto's. Might as well run through all of the "memories" of the rest of the cast, too.

Thank GOD I didn't watch this show weekly, because if I waited a week just to see an episode made up of 95% flashbacks that we've seen before, I'd kill myself

Why there are so many unnecessary flashback in this episode.
The editor looks like a lazy person and the director seems out of idea to bring the manga into anime.
The real story in this episode is around 3 minutes or less.

previous episode i was kinda, ok sakura point of view, but we know naruto x sasuke better than kishimoto probably, we saw tons of flashbacks like this in the reuinion arc.

but though i'm complaining, from some reason the pace and the directing is at least nice, there were episodes with flashbacks that i was totally bored, this one wasn't like them.

the only thing (obvious) that made this ep was naruto running toward sasuke, do i smell another naruto vs sasuke coming?

Literally just flashbacks again lol, it was kinda interesting tho. The story is amazing but I guess it's because shit like this that this anime is not even a 9 lol, at least looks like next episode we'll see Kakashi's perspective in this whole drama, didn't think of that, should be interesting.
