I enjoyed this Itachi backstory. Nice to see that the second-half of the episode was canon. And next week's episode will also be canon, so we'll be getting our first completely canon episode of the year.

So yeah, Kaguya's finally here, and we are back to canon material for now. But I've heard about filler episodes involving Kaguya will start airing sometime later this year. Pierrot really should start wrapping this series up.

I don't think we gonna have another filler now until chapter 699. But between 699 and 700, they would probably do adaptations of the others Light Novel and fillers showing the life of Naruto before the birth of Boruto/Sarada/Himawari.

It's interesting seeing things from Itachi's point of view. He must have been hurting so much while beating up Sasuke.

And I don't believe it, I saw Madara in 2016. Also, the greatest con of all time was played on Madara.

Kaguya! Yes, the original Naruto taste and suspense. Give me more please. Don't ever ever go on fillers again.
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you!

All right, now the filler is gone... (For now.)

Hype is in next episode!


I think you can rest easy, the announcement said they are going into the final battle of the arc, so if there is any other filler, it will be after the manga story has concluded and by then people won't give a shit bout this series any more.

Wow, they really wasted Madara's character, they way he was taken out was pretty pathetic.
Kaguya's OST is really cool though.
I'm glad that Mugen Filler no Jutsu is finally over..... well, at least temporarily. You never know with Pierrot.
3/5


Well i guess but he was a big part of the entire war, so its not like he didn't get enough screen time. It just kind of feels like that, because we been in filler hell for so damn long, we forgot about madara and right when we see him again, BAM he's gone.

I much prefer more episodes with Itachi than the stuff with Kaguya that is about to go down. This is probably the worst part of the whole war arc.

Yeah, I was really looking forward to an epic fight between Madara and Naruto, but then Kaguya stole the show and made a fool out of Madara.

It was heartbreaking to watch that grouping of Itachi flashback scenes from his PoV. While he brutalizes Sasuke we can hear his thoughts plead for forgiveness... AHHH THE PAIN!!! The conclusion of his arc right in the middle of the ep was...I have mixed feelings...

I get the transition of all of that to Sasuke's decisions in the present and YAY WE ARE FREED FROM THE FILLER AT LAST!!! but...

I can't believe I'm going to say that I wish the transition to the present/war arc/Kaguya was done at the very end of the ep instead of dividing it in half. Please don't hate me! *cowers*

It made Itachi's end feel even more horrible. I know that's the point and I get the idea behind the transition, but I felt so incredibly sad and then it was like NEEDLE RIPS ACROSS THE RECORD AND WE ARE IN THE PRESENT. JAGGED AF.

I can't believe I'm like, "More filler, please!" but Itachi's character is so important and the way this episode "wrapped it up" smack in the middle felt awful. I know that's how we're supposed to feel about Itachi's life and death but...IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EP BEFORE A COMMERCIAL BREAK NO NO NO!!! THE PAIN!!! >O<

I guess since I've watched every Naruto everything I'm probably used to the filler but...I never liked it! (Except that one ep where they try to find out what's under Kakashi's mask - that was hilarious and I loved every second.) This is the one time I was hopeful for the filler and [INSERT RANT HERE]. While this arc certainly had it's moments, it could have been so much more. </3

I wanted to feel like HALLELUJAH like I did at the end of every other filler but...nope. I just feel sad. I'll be all excited for next week's ep but...not right now.

Itachi's Arc was one of the best, if not the only really good fillers in Naruto Shippuden, it made me love Itachi, one character I never was really into, now he is one of my favorite characters.
It was really good to see things in his perspective, and how he loved Sasuke and remembered him in every moment of his life. Great to see that scene when Itachi dies again, that fight was reaaaaally good, and that moment was beautiful.

Yeah, that was surprisingly abrupt. They kinda rushed to the end of that so we could return to the present.

Now to the present! The fight is back and now with Kaguya (her OST was awesome, I want that!). I'm really excited to see the next episodes!!

Good ol' Pierrot mixing in filler episodes into canon ones so it makes it way harder to skip fillers for people coming into the series.

Good to see it back regardless, though I already know the filler will be back soon since the Kaguya backstory part is coming.

Damn Madara was making a point about peace the entire time but it was not ideal. But after black zetsu betrayed him I couldn't help to feel bad. Hoping this will be an epic battle with, dare I say, no f-words.

The transition between filler and canon was awful, though Kaguya's rebirth was handled well.

Honestly, there's no such thing as too much Itachi.

I was honestly more heart broken seeing madaras dream fall apart than watching the itachi flashbacks for the umpteenth time.
"My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where the villas are, and i am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and i get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but i occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get 8 hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last checkup."

I really don't like the way they concluded the Itachi arc. The pacing felt great all the way up until he joined the Akatsuki, then super rushed from then on. I wanted more backstory about what he was doing and how he really felt about it.

It was nice getting some inner monologue out of such a mysterious character. Especially on scenes/situations we had previously seen countless times.

I suppose it is better than them creating tons of nonsensical storylines for him, just to pad things out. But there were certain events I would've liked to have his perspective on. Especially in relation to his brother.

Oh well, what's done is done. Glad the fillers are over and hope the show can finally finish gracefully. Because these many months of fillers have further tarnished the show for me.

Holy shit, the fillers are over! Black Zetzu reveals that Black Zetzu is Kaguya's will. And Kaguya kills Madara! She only had used Madara like he used Obito. For this, she had changed the stone tablets from Hagoromo, the Sage of Six Paths. May the battle begin: All left survivors of the world vs. Kaguya!

I think Itachi's filler was the best in the entire franchise. Maybe because it was more like semi-filler? No idea, but it was good to remind fans probably the most intriguing storyline in Naruto. Itachi was probably the most tragic character, what's not to love about him.

Well, anyway, finally - main story is back! Too bad Madara had to be taken out in such a pathetic way... I wasn't big fan of Kaguya's story in manga, but maybe animated it will make more sense? Or so I hope...

Can't wait to check out new opening, it better be at least as good as Haruka Kanata from the first season!

FINALLY!! Wow i was just insanely glad thaat we were back to cannon.
Liked how Madara's goal was more fleshed out in the anime. Gave a more detailed reason to his actions.
But man Kaguya stole the show!
She didnt say a freaking word but daam! That OST was just summarizing my feelings...
It was like HOLY SHIT SHE'S HERE!
Hopefully the pierrot do it justice because i can see the potential of the anime adaptation in making a much better and awesome fight than the manga.
Man i'm so glad its over... That OST though... mind blowing!!!
Can't wait for AKF Gen for the final awesome OP to do justice to this arc.

God it feels good typing somwthing here after a while!
And daam Kaguya's hot!

First the "main boss" was Obito, for he was strong and no one could beat him.
But no, he was actually manipulated by Madara, so he was the last one to beat.
No, wait, Madara is using ten tails to fight whole army, all 5 Leaf Kages and Naruto.
No, no, sorry, it's Obito again, he absorbed ten tails. He's basically unstoppable now.
Oh no, sorry, it was just what Madara wanted, he now absorbed Obitos' body to be reborn.
Woops, sorry, it's not Madara, it's actually black Zetsu working for Kaguya.

I just want to point out this is all during just 1 fight.
M. Night Shyamalan would be proud.

Give it 2 more episodes and I can even see the actual Sage of Six paths get reborn by using his mother and saying it was his plan all along and he became evil because his cat fell off the tree and died. Poor cat.

But then again, I should be happy we're back on canon and I just want to see how it ends so I'll stop whining and enjoy fighting. That's all this end is, one giant fight scene.

Let me just explain why I got so pissed off at constant antagonist changes.
First we had Obito, semi to fully established guy, turning bad due to shit from the past, blah blah blah. He got backstory, arc dedicated to him, few episodes of fighting and then he was switched to Madara.
Then the same routine happened to Madara, backstory, his explanation why he wants to do what he's doing, blah blah blah, some fighting.
Kaguya was mentioned in a, what, 5 episodes total, and that's being generous.

Why make her the villain now? Why not have someone, aka Madara, inherit her desire to rule, conquer, whatever. Why establish people only to drop them for the ultimate, original evil?
Ugh, I've seen the show up to this point, I'm gonna see it till the end now.

So you're saying that you want a Kaguya back story arc. jk

Its not just this series, but I really get annoyed by how insanely OP the main characters become. Naruto and Sasuke are the only ones able to stand up to Madara with the powers of the 10 tails, and whatever other powers he had. All of the Hokage's were basically useless, that army.... worthless. Literally all that army did was stand around and force Naruto to defend them.

Because the backstabbing of Madara made his actions in retrospect extremely ironic.
He would do whatever it takes to reach his goal, preparing several failsaves for the possibility of his plans turning not the way he wanted and still got fucked over by the same scheming he applied his whole life after losing to Hashirama.

His initial plan was to make Nagato revive him, which is why Obito taught Nagato the Rinnegan techniques. If that should fail he had still Obito to revive him by aquiring his Rinnegan, that he also had double backup for.

For once he used the puppet seal around Obito´s heart to controll him and since Obito avoided that he still could use Black Zetsu as a backup plan to enforce his will on him. Going out of his way to make the boy his pawn and literally make him behave the same way Madara himself would.

Kaguya is just the equivalent of Satan within this universe.She didn´t care about morality, has no reasoning for her actions, besides selfish desires and no tragic past to justify her actions.

While Madara and Obito constantly thought they´d do it for the greater good, always assuming that they used on another.
It´s like plotting two sides in a war, who fight for patriotism, for freedom, for love, or for protection, when in actuality the war is always fought for the selfish needs of those who stand above you.

If you take a look at any war in history, it´s never fought for the smallfolk but for the people who demand power.
Kaguya is a decent represantation of that selfish desire, or alternatively Satan, who behaves the same way and is attributed with the same traits (selfishness, scheming, jealously....).

First off, I'll actually be surprised if we don't get Kaguya arc.

Onto other part. Yes, yes and yes. I understand final fight must be epic, glorious and better than anything else previously, but they've gone a bit too far into ultra-super-extreme powers.

And I'd still be able to get over that if they defeated ANYONE so far.
Ten tails whooped their ass, then was consumed. Obito whooped their ass, then got consumed, Madara kept crushing them left, right, up and down, and they didn't come even close to even putting a dent in him before he got consumed.

They're upping the scale without overcoming previous one.
It's as if atheletic jumper couldn't jump over 2,10 twice, raised the bar to 2,30, failed 2 times, raised the bar to 2,50, and after failing that twice again, 3m it is.

If this was a video game, I'd probably quit playing after 2nd or 3rd time I defeat same boss and go watch a video on youtube how it ends. I don't like extending stuff just so it lasts longer and looks more "epic".
