Shino still creeps me out but that was cool. I though Gaaras true monster self would be more hideous than that.

Shino beat that ass... and Gaara's appearance is now as disagreeable as his attitude.

Wow. This episode should have been titles ''Battle of the Freaks''. What is Gaara, really? And Shino is just a freaky master, or something..? Looking forward to the next!

So the one that Bukkan sensed not being human, was Shino right? His body consists lots of insects after all, hopefully that poison cloud wasn't lethal?

Shino is utterly brilliant isnt Gaara supposed to be like a monster that no one can look at cause its hideous. Temari seemed more scraed of Gaara than Sasuke???

So Gaara thinks that because he has no friends that that makes him more powerful...he has it all backwards. *shaking my head*

Gotta love Shino and Gaara is about as ugly as when he isn't half monster

This Puppet jutsu is super lame. He talked sooooo much trash since his first appearance and his abilities weren't anything to write home about. The poison was the only thing that made it worthwhile and since they're all ninja, I would expect every serious person to use poison.

I hate bugs; I could never be friends with Shino. I was wondering how he would use the bugs in a serious battle. Similar to his first fight.

It seems that Sasuke didn't expect to see Gaara's true identity, he was so scared, scared boy. Shino did very well.
