alright guys spoilers away ok, i know you can't help your self from hinting upon future events, but try to keep them with in the tags. Don't want a repeat of what happened in the WB war arc in the one piece discussions.

loled, things get too serious about more than 40 episodes later (if the pace stays like this, 1 episode = 1 chapter), that's about a year (or less) from now, so I suggest you be extra careful while roaming around, Bleach got ruined for me a couple of times already, the reason was Wikipedia actually. and thanks for your notice about One Piece, I'm watching it don't want anything to be ruined, so gonna stay away from the discussion threads.

Nice episode, pace is not that bad too, looks like fights gonna be interesting and there's gonna be some filler fights, and was surprised there was not much recaps, and they were good. Animations are not bad too. looking forward for the next episodes.

OMG. That was amazing!!
I can't believe Sai's brother is there, and wow Kankuro and Sasori fight'll be PERFECT. And haah, he's using Sasori's body :)

ANKO!!!!!!!!!! Man. She'd better be alive :(

They have given a name to Sai's brother.
The name of Sai's brother was never mentioned in the manga, not even once.

And finally, the war officially started.
The one who will kick ass here are Omoi, Kankuro, and Sai.
Cannot wait to see more of the action.

That usage of Doton was so fun. Ahahaha.

It will be cool that Sasori fights his own puppet.

I am just stating it on behalf of the fans that have not read the manga, unfortantly i have read the manga so i already know what is going to happen. I hate it though when people give hints or spoilers, even if just subtle to ruin it for the rest of the non manga readers. Yeah One piece has crazy spoilers in it.

I know people were telling me this arc is going to be like 20 or somethin episodes? lol no way. This arc is at least probably going to be like 90 chapters in the manga and that could be mean over a year. But in all my years of watching ongoing shonen anime i have never once seen an arc that long, so im pretty sure they will put filler in between just to feel in the gaps. Or possibly create different subtitles "Part 1" "part2" like they did in bleach.

Considering the pace, and if it stays like this it would be more than 80 episodes, as for fillers there are some shounen which don't have fillers more than 5 episodes. Katekyou Hitman Reborn! would be an example (haven't compared Anime and Manga, but Anime seemed to have no fillers more than 5 episodes), and alot have went more than 50 episodes. actually almost every single one (at its beginning mostly), not to mention Naruto season one had almost 135 canon episodes without much fillers, and 2 arcs in Bleach went over 60 episodes without fillers, and One piece till where I've reached. Well an episode or 2 or even 5 of fillers are likely to be put.

Personally I think they're going to continue it without fillers, actually that's the way it should be 'cause it'd be too awkward if they don't. Same goes for Hunter x Hunter which has much more material than Naruto (about 300 chapters.)

That's doubtful. There's actual a good reason he's likely not to come back if you've watched the Itachi Hunt arc involving Pain vs. Jiraya.

Well i am taking in terms of "arcs" their has really never been an arc over 60 episodes in anime. Its usually 15, or 25, or maybe possible 30 or so at the most. For most ongoing shonens, like bleach, naruto, and one piece. Sure some of them had consecutive arcs like the water 7/enies lobby went way over the 60 limit. But regardless they are still separate arcs. Thats what i mean in terms of this war arc. How exactly are they going to animate a total of 80 episodes.

If it actually is one full arc of 80 episodes, its the largest arc ive ever seen in anime, other wise like i said they may either put a filler in between, or create a part 1 part 2 subtitle's to separate the 80 episodes. I don't believe its going to maintain that pace though, it probably will probably increase to more to like 1 episode = 2 manga chapters. In any case, the manga is far ahead enough that their is absolutely no reason to place filler at all. The arc is nearly at its climax in the manga and by the time the anime catches up. The manga story might even be over by then lol either that or well into the next arc.

Hitman reborn had very little filler actually, the first season was all manga, but thats another discussion for another topic.

The war is just barely getting started but already off to a good start. Can't wait to see some of the battles in this arc animated, they will probably make my eyes pop out of their sockets.

All the training that the shinobi have been through, all the fights they have encountered, its all for this moment. I am so glad the closing theme song is actually good, to offset the crappy opening theme. Kind of brings more impact to the series episode cliffhangers.

I actually liked that crappy CGI where the camera panned out to get a glimpse of just how many shinobi their was, kind of reminded me of LOTR and gives you a whole perspective on the global scale of the units that will be fighting in the war. In short, its the most shinonbi that has ever been together in the series up till now.

I had a feeling this was coming, bunch of people having to fight someone they cared about. When you think about it, it's a double edged sword, it may catch some off guard, but others are gonna be even more determined to finish off Kabuto for disrespecting their dead.
