| Action wise great episode, especially loved the Killer Bee vs 3 Taka members part. Well it was unfair but that made Killer Bee even cooler!!! They really did plough though the manga though, was expecting another episode at least for this fight. On to fillers I guess... |
 |
| Is it just me, or this episode was unexpectedly well made. Killer Bee is hilarious as always and it was good to see Sasuke getting beat up :P. But I can't believe they gonna air fillers from now on...it's been a while but this means quality drop again... |
 |
| Awesome episode, sasuke almost died :( |
| Well I loved this episode, Sasuke havent had time to recover from Itachi's fight, and hes fighting against a user with 8 swords? And who use the swords very decent as well. Loved the sword fight. |
Monad said: And last there is something that everyone forgets. This ninjas fight with techniques. According to what kind of techniques each one has things can go very strange. It's not just a matter of am more powerful than you. Stop thinking with the Dragonball logic that everything goes according to a level of power. It doesn't work that way. Boy are you in for a surprise... |
Pantyshots are a different matter entirely |
| Relly good episode, and it was satisfiing to see that Sasuke got his ass kicked twice and was saved på Itatchis powers. Sasuke you suck. filers next? Fuck no D: Well see you guys when Shippuuden is back in track |

| I see fillers ahead! We must change course! |
| The only reason I didn't give this episode a 5/5 was because I think Killer Bee is so annoying especially when he's rapping. It got a 4/5 from me. I loved the moment when Sasuke thought of Team 7. Priceless! ^_^ |

njasis said: Please, name ONE other series that can give such awesome fights like this! Bleach and One Piece is not even close to this awesomeness, thus why Shippuuden is hugely underrated here on MAL i can give an example One Piece!!! lol all i have to say is just keep watching the eps since your not up to date yet |

At least We can go back and watch the fight scenes again if it gets too bad ^^MagicWookie said: I was wondering why the fight scenes were so great....they were just buttering us up before another filler arc. Just what I was thinking XD |

| I couldn't be more happy about how this fight was animated. Killer Bee & the Hachibi looked even more beastly and awesome than in the manga! Fillers... ugh |

| from manga action, to moving motion action. awesome =] nd yaayyy...fillers..-_- |
| Pretty good episode. Bee seems even more powerful animated Fillers... don't mind a new story but i know its gonna be dragggggggged out |
 |
| very cool ep :D and fillers ... again -.-'' |
| cool ep =) 4/5 and god, fillers are back again, wtf >_<" Seems like we're gonna have another 6 months to 1 year of filler in Shippuuden just like Bleach -__-" that totally sucks! |
 When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. |
| DONT HAVE REASON FOR MORE FILLERS!!! Anime/Manga have a good distance, have a lot of stuff to convert for anime. ITS RIDICULOUS ANOTHER FILLER SAGA. Studio Pierrot makes a lot of badass works on naruto, fillers like "The fake Jinchukiri" and "gurren-san,yukimaru,etc" are garbage to me. |
smokes said: what if sasuke atacks naruto with the black fire? |
| Killer Bee shitting on Sasuke with the swords was awesome, I wish the animation would have been better during that sequence. The chest destroying clothesline he gave him was badass. Seriously with fillers again? |
 This Fairy Tale Is Ending |
| I love the new EP. and for a second i was starting to think sasuke was starting to suck, until i remembered the battle he had with Itachi. Good thing they took down the Eight-Tails. |
     |
| Ok I seriously don't know what to think of Sasuke at this point. Obviously he actually cares about his team and pretends he doesn't. I mean he used the painful sharingan (forgot the name -.-) to save Karin. And when he was almost about to die, the old team 7 flashed before his eyes (which i gotta admit made me tear up a bit :( ). So he's not a COMPLETE ass. But he is still after Naruto for his power >.> |

| Glad they used the good animators for this fight cos it was amazing, specially the part where they go head-on without shringan or bijuu stuff. Also got some revelations about the teams' power. Even if it was not the best Shippuuden episode ever it was pretty good and better than the last major fight Vs. Itachi. Now I'll just have to put Naruto on hold because of the fillers. A shame really since it was finally good again. |
 |
| Killer Bee is a little annoying but that's why we love him as a character. The action in this episode was really awesome! |
 |
| WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! <3 the Hachibi xD |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| That was an amazing fight, the animation was incredible And fillers coming next |

| crazy battle |
 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. |
| I just had a Bleach deja vu.. did that jinchuuriki throw a Cero or what?! :P he also kinda looks like Yammy... both being ridiculously huge. |

| Rewatching this episode because of Sasuke's sweetness. :) He saves Karin just like he would do to Sakura long ago.. And he treats Taka as he did Team 7. Although this won't be important to him later on, Sasuke has a wonderful, though corrupted heart. You can see his little heart trying to come out and remind him of Konoha. You should just listen, Sasuke, you're meant to be with the Hidden Leaf. :3 And I love how his new found power is to EXTINGUISH the Amaterasu flames. It shows the peace that Sasuke is meant to bring. But of course, Madara, and himself pushes that fate away. Oh well. It will come in time. :) Ah~~, I'm such a Naruto fangirl. xD. 5/5 |
noteDhero said: This was a crazy episode. So many important facets about Taka's powers were revealed that it felt like every three minutes I was being assaulted by important information. Like Karin's healing, Jugo's healing (with age reversal side effects), Suigetsu's huge water monster, or Sasuke's Amaterasu. To top it all off, Sasuke actually had the nerve to say, "I thought it would be easier." He just went up against the tailed beast with the largest chakra reserve next to the Kyuubi. Why on earth did he think it was going to be easy? I honestly don't know how I felt about this episode. Until this point, Sasuke has been portrayed (throughout Shippuden) to be very quick to the point. I don't really understand why he didn't use the Sharingan right off the bat, or why it wasn't on the whole entire time. I'm a little dumbfounded. As for why Sasuke couldn't handle this compared to Orochimaru and Itachi--both of them were just about half dead when he fought them, and he had the curse mark to bail him out a lot. Now that that's gone, I suppose we've witnessed just how weak he is in comparison to everything. He's definitely stronger than Deidara (even though he needed the curse mark there too)...he just reeked of desperation from the beginning. But then, I suppose this was his first opponent that wasn't desperate to have/defeat/mold him. I'm honestly not sure who would win in a fight between him and Naruto now. If you had asked me an hour ago, I'd say Sasuke, I think it'd come to a bit of a draw, which is tremendously ridiculous considering Naruto hasn't grown much, and Sasuke has grown a lot. I don't know that I like what this episode means for characters/story. Good points you mention here. Many forget that Oro and Itachi were weakened already when Sasuke fought them. And we are talking about one of the strongest Jinchuuriki, who is fully capable of controlling his bijuu too. Of course Sasuke would look "weak" against him, not to mention that he's still not fully recovered from his fight against Itachi. Plus we should take into account that trying to defeat someone so strong without killing him is much more difficult. I guess, he didn't want to use the Sharingan too often, now that he's got the ManSharingan, which uses up a lot of chakra and also can blind you by the time. It's nice and kinda nostalgic to see that Sasuke still remembers his time with Team 7. And that he actually cares about his team members when protecting them or trying to save Karin despite being weakened and affected by amaterasu. Shows, that Sasuke is still his old self deep in him, keeping his morals, loyal and warm-hearted (like a true Konoha-Ninja), well, at least at that time. The bond of the Taka-group is close as proven by this episode, I like that. |

| sauske pwnned loved every minute of it. They really got their asses handed to em. great action! |
 |
| I thought that that ninja sasuke interogated said that Killer Bee wields 8 swords. I only counted 7 on his back and he also used 7 swords for his weird technique |

| Yes, Sasuke seems suprisingly weak in this episode. Kind of disappointing. |
| Fucking brilliant. One of my favorite fights of all time. This must be like the 8th or the 9th I re-watched this episode over the years but I still fully enjoyed it. It added more depth to Sasuke's character. |
 |
| Pretty cool fight, Sasuke's new Sharingan is powerful as hell. Tough fight. Kind of disappointed we are going to fillers, I have really enjoyed the focus on Sasuke. Truth be told, I prefer him over Naruto. |

I take back what I said, this is one of the few filler arcs you should watch (it'll stop you from getting confused later on because the anime tries to incorporate the filler arc into canon). |

I take back what I said, this is one of the few filler arcs you should watch (it'll stop you from getting confused later on because the anime tries to incorporate the filler arc into canon). Precisely what Minagatachi says, ive said this numerous times but ill say it again. But the way naruto integrates filler into the canon material, the studio tries to keep the story going and not disjointed, as trying to transition both filler and anime. Some people like that, others hate it. I think the majority hate it because some times its hard to skip full entire filler arcs, you can be missing out on pertinent information. Like bleach for example, all the fillers are structured in a way to where you can skip them all with out any repercussions of missing out on any manga material. But it all comes down to your personal preference as well. I will say some filler arcs our great, well others are below sub par. This upcoming one is actually not to bad since it involves an immportant character in the canon story line, this will be taken into account much later on in the series, so its in your best interest to watch it. |
  |
| Well, I wasn't going to skip it anyway. But, any part of me who wanted to is now dead and buried. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| This was when sasuke was still a nice person. Look at him being grateful about his team saving him, thinking about his old team mates, being worried about his team, saving karin although jugo wanted to leave her to die. |
