Good filler, although it feels like they copypasta'd the susuke persuit arc.

It was pretty cool when naruto said "we are the shinobi of konaha", then paused and said: "I shouldn't really say that right now".

Well, even if it is just the opposite of the Sasuke arc, it's still nice to see all the main characters teaming up.

Yes, totally agree. It's now for them to return the favor. 2 allies to each sand shinobi. Now I wonder what the other's roles will be, Neji, shino, hinata and sakura. Since shikamaru specially requested for Sakura. :)

lmao i laughed at that too. But in the video that i watched, the sub said (after they finished saying An Ally of the Sand, Leaf shinobi) naruto and lee stoppped they said:
Naruto: He's not here
Lee: they're further up ahead
Naruto: Right!

lol. well both versions are funny.

shikamaru is an excelent leader after all... form a search and suport team, and an attack and destroy/return the favour team... man, the team compositions could not be better after all. naruto and lee are like the kick ass bro's, bothe having realy strong taj jutsu attacks, Kiba and Choji could be defined tanks, they can eat tonns of damage, and will go to the first line of battle ( I hope). Ino and Shikamaru... well they are both genjutsu users( think thats what shadow binding and Ino's technique's are called), so they would be best to stay behind in the battle, and impare the enemy from attacking the front lines. at least thats the way I would organize a upcomming batle. If a fight would break out, the tanks would have to go to the front lines to "eat" the first wave of damage, and keep them buisy untill genjutsu takes effect. than the fighter team naruto and lee would have an easy game to kick them in there ****. I am thrilled to see if I am just a little right with my thoughts. man, such high class action is awaiting, can't believe its a filler...

Their opponents are just relying on their flashy weapons.

in short - all three sand shinobi faces their enemies, but back to the corner (surprisingly, yeah?) and konoha shinobi coming to their help.

really good right now, depends on the continue it might be one of best filler arc yet.

It's just a reverse Sasuke retrieval arc but it still feels good! Also they said all the Genin were dispatched, where is Ten-Ten lol? Also Shikamaru was thinking about Temari. Damn I ship them so hard XD.

It's interesting, what I don't like so much is that stronger characters appear than others who were previously presented as super strong.
