Come on now, I wanna see the awesome fight between the reanimated Madara and Hashirama!

And it'd be really cool if Sasuke met Madara and was like ''Yo man, I've been causing trouble to the village you guys built up or whatever.''

Lol.

Great episode, great fight. I love those last episodes and the way they are explaining things about Madara and Hashirama. I'm interested to see how they died too, especially Hashirama, since he's so awesome ;)

Beautiful episode from beginning to end... It's sad that the two clans couldn't just get along and work together. I loved that they both in the beginning tried to save each other from their respective clans. I loved the story, I found it to be great that they grew up to be the leader of their own respective clans. It was very sad that Izuna died though, RIP. Hashirama is such a great character he is such a humble man, it was amazing that he was willing to sacrifice himself for the betterment of both clans and so casualties like Izuna wouldn't happen anymore. I'm glad Madara and Hashirama came to an agreement and that they'd actually be able to complete their goals that they had since they were kids! Very beautiful episode from beginning to end, I'm loving this back story between two of the most legendary ninjas in the whole Naruto series. Beautiful episode, I loved everything about it. The fighting scene with the Susanoo was amazing, beautifully well done! Beautiful episode, it was an amazing one that was very enjoyable from beginning to end. I'll give this beautiful episode a well deserved 5/5.

madara- gave up too quickly because of the aching pain of loosing hashirama as a friend and couldn't bare to face that sadness so he decided he will erase that pain by killing hashirama. he was too kind hearted because madara knows killing hashirama is difficult and painful but fighting with him everyday was painful tooo and madara had to stop one pain at least death was the option because people around him (clan members ) wouldn't let him try but he gave up too soon

hashirama - he never gave up ever, if you can see in the flashbacks hashirama never attacked madara first every madara was the first to strike hashirama. hashirama probably teaches everyone in the clan and his younger brother well about jutsu because he didn't wanted them to die.... i don't think madara focused that much because he was in emotional hell but it was painful to hahsirama as well that's why he never attacked first and always wanted PEACE above all else because it was too sad to fight madara who was the same potion and he one and only friend who had same dreams as him...


the thing is hashirama took a different approach to stop the pain in his heart and madara used a different approach because they were both too kind only difference is one gave up the dream the other never gave up the dream big decision that led madaras younger brother IZUNA to death. this was both clans fault :3

Hashirama and Tobirama....Danzo and Hiruzen, so very similar. There must always be a moronic dick in every group.

A buddha and a rose lol.

They really are beating it over our heads with the whole (re)cycle of hatred stuff huh? That Madara tsundere moment was a bit too predictable.
I thought the Golem vs Susanoo part was stupid, ans had bad animation. Are they gonna show the final battle with Susano Kyuubi? That was good.


Too much fluffing in.
Still liking the ED.

This was another nice flashback filler. Hashirama and Madara have such unique backstory, I wonder what incites Madara to become violent later. Yea, Izuna looks too much like Saskue for my liking, and wehre the fuck is the Uzumaki clan?

Susanoo vs. Wood Golem. Damn I felt like it was AoT all over again. I literally could not believe Hashirama was about to commit suicide at the end. Facepalming all over the place during that part.

I really love how Madara came around though. "That's enough. I've seen your guts.". Their relationship reminds me of the one between Naruto and Sasuke except with more friendship and emotion.

You may have facepalmed, but I teared up. That was good execution there. the timing for each of the frames was just so perfect. I felt emotional rather than annoyed like you felt.

I don't like that skip-forward. I know it's meant to be like this, but.. oh well. After all the series isn't titled Hashirama.

Great episode. It was so nice how they both tried to warn each other about the trap :)

And somehow I don't like Tobirama. He seems so...cold.

Personally I think Madara and Hashirama feel more like brothers than Madara/Izuna and Hashirama/Tobirama

Wow. Both sides father and brother showed up.
Wow. What asshole fathers trying to kill each others kid first.
That's the thing with younger siblings, they hold you back. Hashirama probably could've saved Izuna, but Izuna wanna hold Madara back accepting a truce. Tobirama got his attitude from his father, but Hashirama got him on a leash. Personally, I would have killed Tobirama. Not only because of equivalent exchange, but he caused a whole lot of trouble in the future.
Hashirama is a boss. Willing to die for his friend to end it all.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

wonder how all this backstory going to answer sasuke's question.

i noticed that kishi designed madaara's brother like sasuke, probably to resemble itachi&sasuke brotherhood in madaara&iizuna bortherhood.

still perfect, wonder how they really came with the konoha name.

This was SUCH AN AMAZING EPISODE!! This moment almost made me cry. Madara is such an amazing villain and this arc made me love Hashirama. Before, I thought of him as a boring "I do good, I never bad" type of character, but this changed him. Great episode again, but I guess there comes the downfall, how Madara ended up like this.

Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!
