| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Imo this episode sucked |
 |
| i liked this ep considering the last one was a filler and we also got to see some samurai action as well =P |

| Mifune is pretty cool with his samurai moves and everything. I'm a bit disappointed though because I was really expecting a lot from Hanzo. I mean he soloed the Sannin for God's sake! How does he lose to freakin Mifune?! Ugh, oh well, it was nice to be able to see Pain again though. Hopefully next week's episode with Team Asuma turns out to be a really good one. Oh, and one more thing, Kimimaro FTW! :D |

| This episode was nothing but a filler. I suppose we will see these kind of sly fillers for a while. |
| pretty nice episode but i'm excited for next ep though |
 |
| Kind of expected more. Kind of meh. I really liked this fight when it was in manga. I guess reading the manga removes some of the thrill from the anime. I hope that the Asuma versus Team 10 finish in one ep as well like this one. After that... |

| I think some parts were omitted, I'm not sure, compared to the manga. Nevertheless, this is one of my favorite fights. |
 |
| wyh the fights in this war are so boring |
 |
| Not a bad episode. It's also nice to see the bone guy back in action once more. |
| It become apparent pretty fast that Hanzo wasn't the men he just to be i think he wasn't even half the strength he used to be. So i was disappointed that i could not see him at his full potential still the way he died really showed the person he used to be which was great. Shame we didn't get to see more of them tho. |
| I liked their conversation a lot, farewell Hanzou, you were a good character. 13man18 said: I think some parts were omitted, I'm not sure, compared to the manga. Nevertheless, this is one of my favorite fights. The beginning felt strange, so I went back and checked it but there were no changes or cuts, some things just don't translate that well when you adapt it. |
| Well, the episode could have/should have been better, but what the heck. Hanzo seems like a cool guy when he actually gets some backstory. May he rest in peace from now on. Funny how many side characters are actually way more interesting than the main ones. Well, except for Kakashi, that guy has great story behind him and is still awesome whenever he's on screen (which isn't that often sadly). |
| When asama and team 10 fight it out, is when this arc really kicks into overdrive and hasn't stopped since, it just gets more and more intense. I think kishimoto mentioned that the next arc will focus primarily on tying up all loose ends with the konoho 11 main characters. It is a shame they don't get as much screen time or play a huge role, but lets face it. They are not the center of this conflict. At least we do get to seem them all fight though. But kishi still has surprises in store, this arc is still not over in the manga. |
  |
| Well, i expected a little better fight, but still it was fine. Next episode seems promising. |
 |
| I actually liked this episode. I liked the emotion throughout the episode, although the animation wasn't at its best. Hanzo, one of the Hidden Rain's best, is able to end his life on his own terms and passing his conviction onto Mifune. Next episode we will see Asuma vs InoShikaCho in their last battle. |
AhmedHan said: This episode was nothing but a filler. I suppose we will see these kind of sly fillers for a while. Unless they do something completely unplanned, the next few episodes will be non-filler and a lot of fighting between the former kages and Gaara + Tsuchikage etc. |
| I enjoyed this episode tbh..ah Hanzo. |
 |

| ^_~ |
| Enjoyed watching this episode (Kinda hasn't happened awhile on Naruto). Laugh at people who understand nothing and said this was filler. It might be from dealing with previous Naruto episodes, but I felt the anime did the manga justice for this one giving enough focus on the fighting while taking the time to show the importance of conviction and just enough character from both Minfune and Hanzo for me to care. Keep the episodes at this level of entertaining plz anime staff |
 |
| Eh, it was alright. Wasn't too bad compared to some of the things we've seen (I really didn't like the two gold brothers or whatever fight) It's just hard to appreciate this episode when I really just want to see Team 10 vs Asuma and Gaara vs his dad. |
| damn.. did anyone notice that the art is being lame?? or maybe its just the player.. |

| Naruto: Shippuden is really going downhill. It feels like I'm watching some samurai anime instead of that Naruto it used to be. :-/ |
| Well, I loved the episode. Even though it was filler-ish, the back story of it was AMAZING. |
| A double episode next week. Damn we might also get to see naruto finally begin his pursuit toward the battlefield. Can some one please explain to me in a spoiler, or comment on my wall the difference between this episode and the manga, because i remember the manga being really good. What did they like cut alot out or something? I don't like what im seeing in these discussions, just way to much complaining, i sure hope the studio does this arc justice. Because it has some fantastic moments in the story and amazing battles. I remember when i was reading it i was hooked, so hooked in fact that im buying the manga books lol. Love owning the naruto collection. |

| when they aren't fighting each other seriously, i can't take this show seriously either. I think it's also an issue of adaptation. There could definitely have been further development into what the Samurai are fighting for, and more about what Hanzo can do. I mean, I doubt we'll be seeing Hanzo ever again, least Kishimoto could let the anime take some creative direction on Hanzo's skills and stuff. |

DarkTemptation said: damn.. did anyone notice that the art is being lame?? or maybe its just the player.. god, I thought it was just me! the art is lame. I liked the episode as a story -though it was a bit boring- but what happened to the art?! |
| Episode sucked. Regret wasting my time on it. |
| This was such a great episode, I like how the battle came full circle at the end. |
| I quite enjoyed this part of the manga for some reason. I always found Hanzo to be an interesting character and his back-story was fairly bittersweet. |
 |
| Episode sucked. T__T I couldn't bring myself to watch it until I was extremely bored today, like a week after it came out lol. Just wasn't a fight that connected with me, especially since Mifune hasn't been such a major character in the story. Hanzo, on the other hand, is interesting, but he also doesn't have enough screentime so I honestly didn't care much. But besides that, CANNOT WAIT FOR DOUBLE HEADER NEXT WEEK! :OO I mean seriously. Asuma fight is going to be gloorious. |
| lol I slept in the middle of the episode |
| lolwut. Really? Are you fucking kidding me? Hanzo was that weak???? And the Samurai and his amazing moves suck :( And that animation...hopefully they are just saving it up for the whole Madara thing. I liked the back story everything else was so fucking lame. |
| Weak episode. I guess this episode only applies to fat kids xD |
| I didn't mind it that much to be honest, I really enjoyed their talk/fight... It was interesting to see the samurai again, and it was good to see Pain once more. |
| I expected better of this fight. |
 |
| I enjoyed this episode and what was said. |
 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. |
| fights needs a better choreographers. |

| ~yawns~ booooring. |
 |
| I liked the flashback, even if it was mostly talk. :D |
| This was an awesome episode imo, the only drawback was the sloppy animation, but hanzo´s speech and the ost were fenomenal, the war isnt great, far from it, but this is my 2 fav episode so far, along with the zabuza and 7 sworsdmen episode. 3.5/5, but since it had hanzo in it...5/5 |
| I didn't like this episode all too much, but the story was okay. |
| I don't mind episodes like this one. |
