PsychFreak said: I'm almost...insulted by how good these episodes were. They fixed almost all the problems which Shippuuden has had since its outset; pacing was excellent, there were no long pauses in the middle of conversations to watch the wind blow by (apart from perhaps one, but there it was actually appropriate) and the overall air of pretentiousness in which Shippuuden has been wallowing was simply not present. Even the boring, characterless Shippuuden music was used to great effect! This was just a well-told, genuinely interesting story and I'd congratulate Pierrot for it if I could shake off this feeling that they just pawned it off to a more competent studio for this special. The only issue I had at all was that Obito's voice was not at all how I imagined it, but that's not a big deal at all. I agree. His voice really wasn't childish enough. It was like a 38 year old mans voice. |
| OMG. If all Shippuden episodes were like this, Naruto would be one of the best shows. Too bad they aren't. Anyhow. Have a huge question. For those who read manga mostly. Does this backstory(which was perfect) have anything to do with future episodes? |
| wow i was actually impressed by this episode! the animation of the main fight scene was done really well! |
p r o f i l e đź‘€ |
| VERY good episode. 5/5! Probably The best 2 episodes of Shippuuden. Kakashi is Greatness. Enough Said. That entire second part of the episode got me fired up, with his eye getting cut and getting the sharingan. (Poor Obito Died) :< But now back to the original story.., Wish we could have more. But loved it anyway. ^_^ |

Glad to have seen one of the anticipated parts I was waiting for and my expectations were satisfied. I must say. Im will watch next weeks Shippuuden with unusally high expectations Me 3. Tottally epic (unlike normal naruto episodes). |
Sayuri-Hime said: Anigraphuse said: By the way, I'm gonna feel sick if they just focus on Sasuke and his team like they used to do so in the past few episodes. At least they can show some Konoha members, like Kakashi and team seven. And If Lee is in! it's a huge bonus to me. Yes, we are going to continue seeing Sasuke and his team for a while. The storyline is progressing, though. Read the manga! : ) Poor moi! Ain't there anyway to change the manga they're using to make the anime, with a modified one? We can hire Hanzo or Kakahsi himself to accomplish the sneak mission. |
nina4life said: Anyhow. Have a huge question. For those who read manga mostly. Does this backstory(which was perfect) have anything to do with future episodes? Not really. It's just showing Kakashi's history and bringing Minato into the picture. We will be seeing more of Minato later. |

| It's been a long time since we had a good and exciting Naruto episode, this one was great, too bad they won't keep up this pace in the following episodes. |

| Classic Naruto.... without Naruto. I couldn't be more satisfied. I was really afraid that they weren't going to animate this when they started Shippuuden. It was well worth the wait. |

So I'll be holding out hope that the awesome ******* v ****** ass whooping, the epic ******* v ****** showdown, and the ill fated ******* v **** battle are all faithfully represented. |

| This is the first time in years I've loved a Naruto episode. This was so amazing. Man why can't the entire anime be this year instead of the crap they've been spoon-feeding us? |
| Romance comedy anime - Japan's gift to America |
| This was a good episode; gloomy and true to the manga. I was amazed by how it wasn't censored down. Naruto Shippuuden is slowly getting back on track I hope that they don't mess things up with fillers. :s |
| I didn't cry. I bawled my eyes out. T_T It was so good. I knew what was going to happen and tried not to become attached to Obito. It didn't work. The episode still got me. T_T |

| from ep. 92 i jump to 119-120..ahahhaha bcoz i dont like the fucking fillers... i hate it....!!! |
| Man... indeed best Shippuuden in a looooooong time, damn this special was good and emotional and cool ! |
kid1412 said: more fillers soon but we will get to see other tailed beast host. Really looking forward anytime for kakashi arc in the future. You must be joking. They don't need fillers for a long time. |

I agree completely. There's some awesome stuff coming up in the storyline, and I'm really hoping that they do it justice.

| This episode was sublime, this shows what people reading the manga as experiencing and why Naruto is ranked where it is! This episode was very sad, Obin dying and not being able to tell Rin he loves her touching I must say, and it few and far between for me to feel touched by anime! Lovely, hope the keep it consistent with the upcoming episodes, and the animation remains above mediocre! |
| geez! these ninja kids are so serious, what are they like 12-ish right? |
| Don't click the spoiler unless you're up to date with the manga and also know whats happening now. I'm serious, I'll kill your happiness. |

| I haven't seen such an amazing episode in a long time. Simply marvelous ! |
| This is why I love Naruto. I just met Obito and he's putting me at the brink of tears and then delivery pushes me over the edge. Amazing job doing this justice. |

| Didn't they show Kakashi talking to some Chick that looks like Rin during the third's burial? |
 |
| wow i was expecting like 4 eps or something. 2 ep arc ftw :D. it really makes me wonder what happened to rin. |
| - Behold a work of art made in Paint on Windows XP in 2007  too lazy to update these  |

No, he was the first exam proctor but he got killed. He was the one who was always coughing, he does look similar though. The one with the toothpick is Genma. http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Hayate_Gekko That's Hayate |

| great episode! but what chapters was the "kakashi gaiden" from the manga? |

Siefer said: Daniyelllx said: Siefer said: great episode! but what chapters was the "kakashi gaiden" from the manga? Kakashi Gaiden starts at 239. why did they decide to show it so much later than it was in the manga? Probably because it wouldn't have been the best way to end Naruto before Shippuden. It would have been an interuption if they showed it where it should have been. |
