THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
so, Itachi vs Sasuke fight is approaching... nice. karin's ability to sense others chacra is very annoying... I hope she dies sometime... lol. I was glad to hear Naruto saying "kage bunshin no jutsu" again, it felt nostalgic :P

Mod Edit:
Okay, apparently this is necessary so I'm going to put it here where (hopefully) everyone will read it:

This doesn't bode well for Jiraiya. It felt like his farewell. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Slow episode, nice talk, but damn, that's such a slow pacing. Not to mention preview which is signed as Part1, meaning more than 1 episode of backstory...meh...although I do like Jiraiya, I just want the story to move on...f*** it, 2-3 episodes which are not related to story are about to come...great, just great...

Better than the previous one... Jiraiya's farewell was sad, I liked when they talked about old memories, Minato and Kushina, it was so nice.

Never saw Tsunade this cute before. I can't motherf*cking wait for the flashback that shows us what Itachi had to say.

Also "But if I make it back alive..." then what?
I thought she would have to go on a date with him, but Tsunade's face was way too shocked just for a date... what did Jiraiya mean?

And I was waiting for a sudden hug from Tsunade, damnit!

You'd be surprised...it's more story related than you think, lol.


What I meant is story related to Itachi and Sasuke, I just made it sound like story related in general, my bad. Frankly, I don't really care about Jiraiya's past.
But I have no doubt it's connected to future episodes, otherwise it wouldn't have been shown. Same goes for Kakashi's past, I guess it's story related as well...it's just not shown yet....

I liked the new view/feel that was presented in this episode between Jiraiya and Tsunade, but that was pretty much it. I found the animation lacking several places and the encounter with Itachi didn't really get to me.
... Even if I took time to write alot of intelligent words of deep thought and meaning in my signature, would you really care to read and comment on it? ...

1. Risch and Koteg, you seriously ought to consider spoiler tags so the show isn't spoiled for people who haven't read the manga.

2. Ssjbryando, if you don't want the episode itself to be spoiled for you, don't look at the forums before you watch it. That's the whole point of the forums, is to discuss what happened in the episode.

3. It was cool seeing the conversation between Naruto and Itachi in animated form. : D

4. JIRAIYA DON'T GOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

I understand but..at one point I wanted to watch only the anime,without spoilers from the manga,but that's quite impossible.The shippuuden manga started in 2005 while the anime in 2007,so we need 2 years to catch it.The plot is going slow,and nothing is clear,at least I'll try my best to guess what's going to happen,maybe i won't fail

I thought this was a good episode...though I thought this could have come about a little bit more naturally by showing Jiraiya and Tsunade worrying more. That was my only complaint. Since we just came off a big fight, and are currently doing a chase, the pace was nicely switched up here to push towards more.

Karin comes in handy after all. Loved how Itachi found Naruto and then left before even being noticed. I want to know what he said to him so bad.

I like where this is headed and enjoyed the new info. This series usually has something that appeals to me every now and then and this episode was a reminder of that. I don't mind fillers if they're good and i would like to see Naruto and Hinata get together for a filler or something like that. Anyways, can't wait to see how everything unfolds = )!

This was a decent episode, I felt nostalgic to see Naruto use his shadow Clone justsu, since it has been really long which he had any action. I like the intimate interacting between Jiraiya and Tsunade, looks like something big is going to happen! XD

I felt this was a very necessary episode for the upcoming episodes, kind of like "the calm before the storm" episode. I thought the beginning was a little stale, especially the part between Naruto and Itachi but I felt at the end it was nicely done given the relationship between Tsunade and Jiraiya.

Very good episode, I think it was pretty done.

Naruto and Itachi meeting & Jiraiya with Tsunade Farewell & The talk about Naruto's parents

and about : "But if I make it back alive..."

I felt like he was gonna confess or tell her to marry him, lolol

and to u people who can't just stop spoiling the show with the manga
learn how to use spoiler buttons, damn it!

u just have to type ur spoiler between these " (spoiler)(/spoiler) " *Note: replace the Parentheses () with the brackets [], that's all ^ ^

Really liked the episode ^^

tho, I only give it 4/5 ^ ^

Waiting for the upcoming events in the show, I don't mind the next ep being about Jiraiya's past.

n this was honestly, an unexpectedly good episode from wherever I look at it.

and Tsunade near the ending of the ep with the farewell part looked unexpectedly cute xP

That's what I wanted to say~
C u in the next special discussing, and plz, pretty plz, use SPOILER buttons if u're gonna talk about the manga >_<"

Jiraiya and Tsunade... they look cute together, too bad that destiny is a "pain" in the ass. The meeting between naruto and itachi was epic, did you guys noticed how itachi smiled after naruto said he considered sasuke more of a brother than him? We also got to know a little more about narutos mom, sweet. Next episode... Jiraiya backstory arc, waaaay better than any shitty spoiler so don't complain people.

I will have to say the story is moving slowly for my taste and Jiraiya's "farewell" is a bit detrimental to a lot of his loyal fans because the way that this series has been working out those types of speeches or other speeches are pretty much a dead give away of whats coming next (in my opinion).

This was an interesting episode. Naruto runs into Itachi and Itachi, instead of trying to capture Naruto, wants to "talk" with him. That was confusing. And the Forth isn't Naruto's father?! WTH?!

My sentiments exactly, seems like there is/will be something between Jiraiya and Tsunade, depending on how their bet goes. I'm like the only person who ever figured this out but...

Wow... Really slow episode. It was good - I liked the talk between Jiraiya and Tsunade... Kinda sad that it was pretty much his "goodbye" to Tsunade though... D: It'll be nice to have the next episodes about him~

Karin... annoys me... So does her chakra-sensing ability.

I seriously want to know what Itachi said to Naruto! Gahh.

(The animation was a bit weird at some parts in this episode... Not bad, necessarily, just weird. Or is it just me...?)

i loved this episode!!! and i almost cried watching Tsunade cry, when she was watching Jaraiya walk off.

And i do believe this is the first episode where Minato and Kushina are mentioned properly as Naruto's parents. Very Awesome!

P.S. I haven't watched any further than this because i have been slow watching the series whether subbed or dubbed. So don't say any spoilers if you reply to my message please. ^_^

I thought this was a great episode. It did a good job of highlighting the closeness between Tsunade and Jiraiya. I also like how the discussion of Naruto's parents just slipped in there. Turns out it IS Minato like I thought, well they looked so much a like for a reason. Hopefully we'll be hearing more about him in the future.
