Ooh new OP song.
I think I kinda liked the previous one though...

Pretty dull episode although seeing Jiraya was a refreshing sight. Now that's been awhile...
The Naruto and Sasuke chemistry felt pretty repetitive in this. I think they also used some of the exact seasons when Naruto used his summoning skills..

A new opening, maybe the last opening: good visuals, good but forgettable song. I like the new ending, too. Nothing more to say about this filler episode.

So this has gone from showing the dreams, to a flashback within a dream, to showing a story within a dream... may as well call this inception.

The plot was somewhat nostalgic, but that the best I got from it. The new OP and ED are average IMO

EDIT: why did I get the feeling when they showed all those characters in the op with the gem meant that we will be seeing all their dreams?

Damn it even the OP these days feels like a filler, can't even get hyped over it.

ED was better tho, but funny visuals and running.

No comment about the episode.

I didn't watch the actual episode, I only went to listen to the new OP and ED.

Both are rather meh, didn't really care much for them. I'll probably listen to them a few more times, but I can't see myself downloading either song. I, however, did like how the OP showed some scenes in the background from past events in the series (from when this series wasn't just filler nonsense).

The only part of the OP that was relevant to the actual story was when Madara got impaled through the chest. I think that should happen in the next canon episode.

I remember someone predicted that Shippuuden would possibly end at 480 episodes so that its episode count + the first series' episode count would equal 700, which as you know, is how many manga chapters there were. OPs in Naruto are usually used for 24-26 episodes, and EDs around 11-13 episodes, so this OP (and the next 2 EDs) should be used until 455-457, and assuming that guy's prediction is correct, we should get one last OP and 2 final EDs that will go until 480. I hope this is the case, because I want the final OP and EDs to be really good.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Not a very action packed opening theme, but I do like the emotional appeal of showing literally every single important character and Naruto and Sasuke's journey. This is quite possibly the final opening theme for at least the Shippuden content of the Naruto anime (We all know they're going to do Boruto).

The new opening is one of the best. If it's going to be the final opening I think they choose a good one to be the last.
The ending is also quite nice.

Yeah ... Naruto had some plenty of superb OPs and EDs of all times but lately that has fallen down too. For a filler I find the story bland, I hope they make a new OP/ ED for the finale :I

Just because there's no action in the OP, doesn't mean it's shit. If it is the last OP, then they wanted to make it more emotional. You have 17 other openings to satisfy your action fetish. Stop complaining.

Whoa... another nod to the manga! The scene with Kushina, Minato, and Naruto eating a bread while jumping out the window was a scene from a manga cover I believed. Just like last week's Jinchuurikis white clothes.

Also what gives. The animation is FAR better than the Guy's arc.

The new OP and ED is bad. Not memorable at all. I like the previous ones better.

So Tsunade's dream that features Naruto? Wow good job Pierrot! You had one job. To make Tsunade's dream filled with JIRAIYA AND DAN AND HER BROTHER... BUT NOOOO LETS MAKE NARUTO FILLER OF NARUTO INSIDE TSUNADE'S DREAM.

What's next? Hinata's dream about Sasuke? Pierrot is making me sick.

Also... did they just spoiled Kaguya and Madara in one short scene in the OP? Good job Pierrot.

Pretty much this haha.
New opening was pretty good.
Compared to the others it wasn't that bad, but makes no sense to show this in Tsunade's dream.

Going to sit on the side of the fence that dislikes the new OP, felt more like an ED, had no oomph or punch to it. Nothing that makes me say;
"YEAH! It's time for Naruto!"

Comparatively the new ED was much better and almost had like an old school vibe, idk if thats because of the guitar or the imagery or some combination but it was nice.

Also shitty filler EP was shitty(Big surprise). Tsunade's world filled with a naruto story with flashbacks and really just plain crap that shouldn't be there. They can't even do filler stories right. I really should just stay away till they come back to the story.

The only dream that portrayed what could have been scenario in my opinion the Yamato one. Tenten & Karin didn’t have any sense at all. What I don’t understand, Pierrot studio had the opportunity to complement the manga by making all fillers relevant, like you said in your comment a Tsunade dream about his late brother & boyfriend (fiancé) but no they have to toss common sense out of the window and present this nonsense…

The episode itself was pretty nice, compared to the old fillers we used to always get. I enjoyed seeing Minato and Kushina here. What I don't get is... why on earth is Tsunade's dream all about Naruto? That was pretty lame.

The opening was boring, especially the song, it wasn't catchy at all. I really hope this isn't the last opening in the series, they should end it with a blast, not this.

As for the ending, it was really horrible and boring. The previous one was A LOT better.
In this world, wherever there is light - there are also shadows. As long as the concept of winners exists, there must also be losers. The selfish desire of wanting to maintain peace causes wars, and hatred is born to protect love.

Did someone notice the parallels with Neon Genesis Evangelion? The Breakfast is somewhat compareable to the breakfast scene in NGE Episode 26. Am I the only one? is this intentional? or just coincidence...

nah fam


But I'm pretty sure the current OP will likely be the last, the visuals showing a flashback montage is almost too obvious.

Though I'm hoping the fillers will end after about 12 episodes since the ED seems to focus so heavily on the infinite tsukuyomi.

New OP has some pretty cool effects. Not exactly feeling this new arc, but it brings up some interesting alternate possibilities. If Minato and Kushina hadn't died. If Itachi hadn't slaughtered the Uchiha clan. It's also entirely possible that Naruto would have been treated similarly by the village regardless of whether he was orphaned or not.
