| Great episode and i really Loved the new OP and ED as for sakura, i still don't know what to say! |
| i agreed with naruto...going after sasugay is more than a promise >< |
 |
| Wow! Naruto has always wanted to hear those words but after hearing them and realizing it was a lie must of been really painful. What an awesome fight, Kisame's entire sword has finally been revealed. I am very much looking forward this. |
 |
| Badass new opening and ending by HMK "Freedom" Stand up Reaching for liberty.. yay! From the 207 preview I can see they debate about Shark vs Octopus. |
| There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.  Use Personal Blacklist extension in Chrome if you just want to Google for a series synopsis, without google slapping MAL score in it. 3/1 |
| The whole Sakura scene was such cringe in the manga and it was just as bad here. The hokage scene was good though. |
 |
| Yeah I though Sakura doing that was actually sort of messed up. It's not cool to pretend to be in love with Naruto just to try and stop him from going after Sasuke. Also that sword was frikin insane. Looking forward to that fight. |
 |
| this episode still full of chatting hahayz where we get to some action im tired of naruto now new opening naruto is kinda good^^ |
| Sorry For my Bad English ^_^ |
| love the new op and ed of Naruto S, and this ep was cool |
     |
| Sakura:Naruto i love you but i am lying because i still love Sasuke and il do anything for him, i just feel sorry for you not beaing able to bring him back for 2 years and i am giving you this illusion of love so feel happy Naruto: Fuck off bitch i am going after him anyways Damn i was ready to kill her in this ep Killer bee FTW can't wait for the next ep to see SOME ACTION !!! Poor racoon damn you Kisame don't hurt animals :X I just can't keep my eyes of the Mizukage xD The new opening was GOOD but i didn't like the ending :/ |
 |
| Hey geniuses, the fact that she loves him isn't fake. What was fake, was saying that she doesn't care about Sasuke anymore. And why the hell to you have a problem with it? Didn't everyone got bored with Naruto's Sasuke obsession? You accused her for helping his obsession and now that she doesn't you don't like it ether. Decide already. Btw this proves that her promise isn't why his chasing him. She was accused for that too but now you have nothing to say about it huh? That Samehada sword looks stupid and who is the crazy friend of Bee? Gaara's words seem to have worked on the old man.That was indeed a great line he said there. |

| finally they changed the op. and end. songs , whether u think its better or worse i wanted to see a new op and end :) |
 |
| @Monad Don't delude yourself just to be the different here. We all heard (or read if you follow the manga... I don't btw) what she said and if it's not obvious she still loves Sasuke after all that crap and the lazy attempt of a hug you were clearly watching something else. Samehada is taste so I can't argue there, but for me personally it was really original. A bit overkill on the huge smile but still... and his new sensei was mentioned when we saw how he used Sasuke's attempt of a capture to slip away his village and learn enka instead of rap >< I am not sure if I like him more with enka or rap, but either way his lame attempts are awesome! Even funnier when paired with Kasame somewhat serious somewhat funny remarks and his dead staring! And by any chance, anyone else mildly interested to know wtf ended up happening to Suiguetsu and Jugo? Are they such weak characters they won't even bother to give them some screen time when Sasuke is not around?! (I kinda already know the answer but I decided to pop the question anyway ¬¬) |
| "There is no stupid questions, only stupid people." |
| It's not that she doesn't love him. I do believe she does. And so does Naruto. It's simply that she won't grow past the platonic love for Sasuke that easy. And so knows Naruto. She will get there, she definitely will. And it'll be too late. Not everyone will get this. But meh. PS: Tsunade/Jiraiya much? |
| Ponta was the best part of the episode lmao. Didn't you know hes a raccoon? |
 |
| Omg, I knew this part was coming but its more painful to watch. If Sakura is going to at least fake a confession and make it believable, she has to stop mentioning sasuke's name every other second! What a turn off. Poor naruto, he deserves more than this. |
| @wintercrush I don't think "he deserves more than that" fits since Hinata basically "died" for him and he never did stop by to say a word to her afterwards... If anything it's karma biting him back ¬¬ @TheCake I don't get where you people are coming from actually. It's obvious that she likes Naruto, but "love"? Where is it coming from?! The blushing? Maybe the hug when he defeated pain? Either those scenarios hardly express any deeper emotions than a life long friendship, and from purely the speech she gave I don't see how could you possibly think she would love Naruto at any level considering how many times she goes "Sasuke this and Sasuke that". I think you guys are reading too much into her and filling the gaps to fit your perception of how the show should go. Purely from what we've seen I don't think one can rationally get to your conclusions. |
| "There is no stupid questions, only stupid people." |
| @711 I get what you're saying. But like I said... she will. Just not yet. Also, even as she comes to believe it herself, the two of them will never actually have a relationship. True love comes from true friendship. And appreciating that comes with maturity. Sakura loves Sasuke indeed. To a platonic level. And she knows that herself. That it's immature to expect the "perfect prince" to exist. But she won't learn till she does the hard way. In fact, that is gonna consume her throughout her life (it's been doing so throughout the whole series, her childishness), and it'll completely make a void on her when she does finally learn to value Naruto to the fullest. Because he is and always will be her best friend. Even as he turns her down. Either way, like I said, my whole reasoning is hard to get. And neither am I gonna make a walltext for it. (Specially since I haven't slept for 2 days now, screw that). Refer to Jiraiya/Tsunade. This episode's events are exactly what I predicted would happen the day she decided to turn to Naruto. |

| Naruto should have said.. "You were ignoring me all the time, and now you're lying to me?! Get the hell out of my face." |

PS: Although, thanks for the quite good reminder I don't really like it for a Forum avatar that much. |

| WOW, good episode. Sakura is soo bad at lying.. =_= I absolutely love the new songs, Especially the OP Its kinda touching how the old man /tsuchikage decided to change. |
| Sakura needs a boot to the fucking head. I read this in the manga awhile ago hated it saw it animated seriously wanted to kill her. I'm glad Naruto can see through her but how dare she hurt him like that. Can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| sakura you tsundere. overall good episode |

While I agree that her love (albeit probably just a friend love, and maybe a little more) is real. I believe that is was a horrible thing to do as a person to lie your way through a confession after hearing all the stuff from Sai about how Naruto loved her. And I am pretty sure that the promise was something that was heavily on his shoulders until the episode before because he didn't know everything about Itachi and Sasuke. Just like he said when she was confessing, "He didn't know the story but he is starting to understand things" meaning you didn't get it all until a little bit ago. |
| Best part about this episode is the NEXT episode |
 |
| Looks like Killer Bee is gonna be part of the main cast from now on, and I couldn't be happier since I thought he was awesome from the first time I saw him. Really looking forward to seeing him fight again in the next episode. And on that note, it's about time Kisame did something, this is essentially his first real fight in the whole series. |
  |
| Kisame fighting, always a massive yes in my opinion. Everything else was just a distraction. |
| Guess I'm the only one who liked the last OP more than this new one. The new ED is pretty good though. Naruto totally saw through Sakuras bullshit and called her out on it. That was a fuck yeah moment! |
| Great opening, watching it over and over again :P PS. I don't like sasuke but props for a pwning smiley in the OP! :] |
 |
Maiika said: This episode should be called "Sakura the Bi*ch" One thing's bothering me though, how did she fake the blushing? o_O smiling Gaara <3333333 its call instant make up |
| Awesome new OP/ED! Killer Bee and Kisame were great but DAM that was one the most annoying episodes ever! I seriously wish Sakura would go and die now *stupid dumb bitch* >.<! But Naruto on the other hand was quite impressive, you can see how much his grown :) What a waste i was hoping to watch Kisame Vs Bee :( And the drop in animation was so bad except for the fight... What a DRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG... |
| -Somewhat like the new OP. It's much better than the previous one imo. Ending song is so-so. Like the graffiti feel to the images though (: -Love how subtly dramatic Kisame's appearing was. -LOL at Yamamoto's and Lee's expressions xD -Even though I already read through this part in the manga, I love how Naruto isn't stupid enough to buy Sakura's story. But anyways, I thought the part where Naruto said "I hate people who lie to themselves!" was a powerful moment. Actually, I think they did an excellent job in executing the scenes of Sakura's confession pretty well (in a very dramatic/emotional way). The music really helps too (: -LOL at Kiba's expression when Sakura stepped on his foot. -LOL at Bee writing down his lyrics! 4/5.

| very nice slow motion picturing |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
Psajdak said: Best scene in the whole series. No, this is. I don't even care that the speech was fake, I've been waiting for this moment for 8 FUCKING YEARS. Coincidentally, this is also my 3000th post. LIFE IS GOOD. |
     |
| naruto has outdid them selves again..how can it get any awesome then this! :-) the animation was well drawn and detailed! Sakura confessing wasn't to my liking tho in my own opinion.. Haha hachibi and kisame on the other hand was drop dead epic! |
   |
| Oh i know this fight is going to be a good one. (Kisame vs. Killer Bee) and im glad naruto didn't believe sakura, but if that was her plan, it was a really messed up one. Plus, the new op and ed is awesome. :D |
     |
| Just when I thought it was too good to be true, it really was! Nothing but lies!! For shame, Sakura, FOR SHAME! |

| - Killer Bee singing, haha. - A fight between too awesome characters. - Gaara's smile. ^_^ - New OP/ED are nice. - I was waiting for Sakura to confess ever since I read the manga just to hear Naruto call her a liar. (LOL @ Lee & Yamato's face) - And it was fantastic. - Sakura sounds so revolved right now but - Lol, Kisame is slow. I thought it was obvious that Ponta was a raccoon. |
| I really enjoyed this episode, Naruto isn't just some kid already and he can see pretty clearly through his friends and Sakura, yet he is still obsessed with Sasuke. I think that by this point, it's too much. |
 |
| The pacing was slow. And Sakura just updated her "Hate Me" list with even more reasons to hate her. The next episode's gonna be interesting. A fight between an Octopus and a Shark, eh? XD Oh! And loved the OP better than the ED. Nonetheless, both were still good. |
| Did I miss something, was the previous episode an hour long? Because Killer Bee was already training with his new sensei and Sakura already told Naruto how she felt. Well anyways, that aside it was a great episode. I like how Naruto saw through Sakura. xD Not such a dummy afterall. |
 |
| Loving new OP/ED. Especially music in the ED. |
