| Oh my god, he's got the Sasori puppet! Awesome move!!! Can't wait for the next episode... |
| great episode 5/5 can't wait till the next |
bunnies said: I wonder if they have Jiraiya? Imagine Tsunade vs Jiraiya. omg.... I can feel some emotionally awesome packed episodes coming. 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. |
 |
| holy crap this was a nice episode, liked it a lot. i was hoping sai to be pissed off as hell and lose his cool a bit. |
     |
| Really slow start, but after a while the action picked up. Nice to see Sai's brother. |
| i don't remeber this being in the manga for some reason, strange! |
Candor said: link9us said: Candor said: link9us said: 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. 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.) 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. |

| damn raging Sai preview has me super hyped for the next ep.. |
 |
| Damn, what a great episode. It had top notch quality all along .And yes, I mean it - actual quality (well maybe aside from the sloppy CGI in the marching scene but that's forgiven). I hope that they keep it up. 5/5 |

I hope that they keep it up. 5/5 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. |

| WOW! This was surely worth the wait!! Loved how this war is starting! 5/5! Way to go, Naruto! |
 When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. |

| There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.  Use Personal Blacklist extension in Chrome if you just want to Google for a series synopsis, without google slapping MAL score in it. 3/1 |
| Nice start to some epic fights! |
Mikasa said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So the first half was really boring, the second was good however. Sucked that the guy didn't die along with the Aburame one. Haha you're cruel, although he did deserve to die with how indiscrete he was and for being so care free in a time of war. He's an idiot. |
| oho, kankuro being a badass. nice teamwork for a team that just met. |

pockyfart said: I was extremely satisfied with this episode. Great idea for the reincarnated ninjas to have feelings. (I guess I never really thought about it) I wonder if they have Jiraiya? Imagine Tsunade vs Jiraiya. omg.... I can feel some emotionally awesome packed episodes coming. Actually I would find Tsunade vs Dan to be more interesting. Omoi, you really need to get a grip. And whoever the idiot was who was full of himself and couldn't figure out the trap...he deserved to get killed. Shame he didn't. |
 |
| These aren't the fights I want to see, but its not bad.. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Episode was ok, but somehow I feel really sad to see Sai fighting his brother and I can't help it but to feel it's going to become even more sad... |
 |
| Nice fight. Kankuro's become such a great strategist. :3 |
| I knew it ! I knew it was Sai's brother. 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. The Sand siblings have all become fine Shinobi :) |
| Episode was alright. But I feel the only reason the episode was good was because of Deidara and Sasori, they have some of the best fights in the Naruto series. |
 |
| Damn that was a boring start. Why do I feel like we are going to get a cluster fuck of fights we have already seen? |
| god its so funny theyre running the giant groups through the desert haha but omg the end is hype im excited |
| Anko! Zaji is a lucky fock. Kankuro vs Sasori rematch. A Sasori puppet. lol |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Begin the war, and the first down, in the NInja band, a Shino family with a Deidara bomb inside his jar!!! Deaths between alives!! Master Vs. Apprentice!! Brother Vs. Brother!! |
| A pretty "lit" start to the war hehehehehehehe |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Great episode, wonder how they'll get through this one! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| It feels like a build up episode but that's okay for now :D |
 |
| Nice ending.They succeeded in trying a creative trick. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| kankuro vs sasori (my man) next ep !!!! |
| kishimoto build the war in great way, really feels like he putted a lot of thoughts on that. except for the flashback at the end it was great, kankuro vs sasori going to be interesting. |
| Damn our boy Kankuro has improved quite a lot. Taking on Sasori now! Deidara is as annoying as ever ngl. His hmm seems kinda annoying lol. Sai's brother Shin is also present. :O Omoi for the clutch. Also rip Aburame guy. Sasori vs Sasori puppet~~~ |
