Pangeaa said: 10 min bullshit talk, 10min of shittyfiller about kabuto whom I don't give a single fuck in the world + 30 sec fight. Great Naruto concept. If you think Kabuto's past is shitty filler. Then I feel sorry for you, its one of the better past arcs in Naruto. 5/5 for this episode, Kabuto's past is super sad. It will get even more depressing with the next episode, if you didn't like Kabuto before. This arc really fleshes out his character and explains a lot. The story is moving along nicely in the anime for a change. Hopefully they can keep up this pace without introducing anymore filler. Considering the manga should be near the end, that shouldn't be too hard. |

It will be some time though before its shown in the anime. It puts into perspective though really just how everything started involving the shinobi wars, etc. I like it because its very historical. I hope the anime does not rush that one. |

| You know Sawyer pointed out something interesting. Back in the Chunin Exam arc during the Forest of Death, Kabuto got his glasses knocked off his face by some Ame nin and lost his shit, now we finally know why. From the wiki: "During the second phase of the exam, Kabuto joined forces with Team 7 in an attempt to finish the phase with little hassle. When the group encountered Team Oboro, Kabuto's glasses were knocked off of his face after saving Naruto Uzumaki from an attack. This caused Kabuto to momentarily lose his cool and reveal his Killing Intent, paralysing both Team Oboro and Naruto's team-mates as he took advantage to defeat the Ame genin." Lirina said: I thought Kabuto just wanted to take Sasuke hostage so he could control Itachi into doing what he wants.Last episode Kabuto wanted to kill Sasuke and now he says he'd never harm him. Doesn't make much sense ... . |

yhunata said: Good episode, very nice. Better than the manga, I'd say. Lanfan said: Can't wait for the upcoming episodes! Was so gutted that Naruto wasn't on last week. Damn Pokémon! Anyways, felt really sorry for Kabuto. I look forward to seeing his backstory next time, finally we actually get to find out something about him! 5/5! Thank you for reminding me about that. No problem. xD |
|
| Decent episode. Mostly talking. |
 |
| Kabutto telling his backstory can't be good for his prospects in this fight. The guy is falling into shounen trap. |
| Wow they are going to drag this part out huh? Oh well at least its interesting. |
 |
| Kabuto's backstory is one of my favorites, so damn sad. |
| Not gonna lie, I really loved Kabuto's back story even though I never really cared for him or like him. I dunno, this anime just knows how to pull my heart strings in all the right ways. It's so unprecedented for a fiction to do this for me. 4/5 |
 |
| Mesmerizing dialogue between Itachi and Kabuto. Shows them both as a very intelligent shinobi. Only such kinds of talk are actually better then showing some fluid action. |
| I liked Kabuto's backstory, it was good, his name's origin, the glasses, and how he came to become who he is now. First half was a borefest for me though. Edit: Wasn't this fight lasting a little too long? How many chapters are they adapting per episode? o.O |

| Aw man, i feel a bit sorry for Kabuto now, but he's still such an idiot. |
| Oh my... the story of Kabuto is so sad... it gives us a lesson about the children of war. The same was with Nagato, Yahito and Konan. :( |
| I was a bit bored watching this episode... I was hoping for a good action and there were only flashbacks and not very interesting conversation :( O, and I saw a mistake! There have been writen Sasuke Itachi, not Sasuke Uchiha in one moment! |
| i like sasuke n itachi teaming up |
| Izanami sound interesting and Kabuto's past flashback started which ok so far |
 |
| The animators of the Naruto universe aren't following universes rules. The only jinchuriki that have markings that are like their tailed beast are Naruto and Gara, and that's because the tailed beast altered their body. Then theirs Ginkaku and Kinkaku, who had their bodys altered as well by the nine tails, but in the flashback before it happened they already had the whiskers. Then theirs the sharingan. Kakashis sharaingan is always in an activated state because it's transplanted, but then Saskue has transplanted eyes and they are not always activated. When he used the eternal magakyo sharingan against Kabuto his eyes bled, which shouldn't have happened if it really was the eternal mangykyo sharingan. This is starting to look like its some remake/fanfiction |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| So that's Kabuto's backstory and how he got his glasses. That's a Mother I'd hit. |
| 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). |
| Damn, Naruto is full of lonely characters lol ^^' I still hate Kabuto :3 |
| Kabuto was a kid, i dont´ belive!!! xD |
| It's about time we got Kabuto's backstory.. that means he's gonna die soon? |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I know damn well they ain't making me feel bad for Kabuto :( He was such a cute child. And as stated above he's probably going to die, as they always get a backstory when they're going to die. |
| Now that was a great flashback! Young Kabuto is very sad |
 |
| Seems like these 2 episodes are just Kabuto's backstory but I hope we learn about his actual past. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| “Sasuke... Do not leave my side” who would’ve thought we would hear Itachi say those beautiful words T__T also well it seems Kabuto is more important than i thought... his backstory does seem interesting |
| Kabuto backstory was very nice. I've never really liked him as a character but this persuades me a little. |
| so now there's inazami? how much more new sharingan jutsu there is? probably to the extent that every other battle where uchia shinobi will be cornered in future battles there will be more of them, that's how it seems :/ kabuto not even have his own name is kinda sad, but it's seems more that kabuto's backstory is used for something else than feeling empathy for him. |
| I find it ironic and slightly pathetic that Kabuto was still trying to get Sasuke on his side. Sorry dude, this guy now loves his bro and will probably live the rest of his life regretting the years he spent hating him. From this fight, you can clearly see the difference in maturity between Itachi and Sasuke. While Itachi always thinks and acts calmly, Sasuke is easily influenced by his emotions, especially when his clan's name is involved. I don't really like Kabuto. He's probably the villain I like the least, but I do like knowing his backstory. It's quite sad so far. I do want to know more but I hope it won't be too long because like Itachi said, "I hate you, be I understand you." 🤣 Well more like, I want to understand you. chocopurin said: “Sasuke... Do not leave my side” who would’ve thought we would hear Itachi say those beautiful words T__T YES!!! And another one I love is "No matter what darkness or contradictions lie with the village, I am still Uchiha Itachi of Konoha." |

ss_prfm said: I don't see Izanami as an asspull-no-jutsu. Kishi drew his inspiration from Shinto mythology. And Amaterasu, Susano'o, Tsukuyomi, Izanagi and Izanami are all related. So I suspect Kishi already mapped out these as Uchiha ocular abilities way back when Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu was revealed in Naruto. Susano'o was then revealed in the Itachi v Sasuke fight with Itachi saying that it was the 3rd of the triplet of jutsu 'born' when he activated his Mangekyou (that's akin to the mythological story, of Izanagi's cleansing rite giving birth to the 3). The final two sacrificial abilities were then revealed at Danzo and now at Kabuto, hence completing the quintet. Anyway, the main thing is the feelings. Izanami is a way of Itachi trying to help Kabuto change his fate, as he sees his old self in Kabuto. That's what actually matters in this context and that's what it's all about :) I've always wondered why the Uchiha abilities are named after Japanese myth. But thank you for pointing out this whole story I have no background on it afterall. 😁✌️ |

| Damn they are really making me feel bad for Kabuto. Dude had a really rough childhood :( (just like other antagonists. Can't wait for Tobi's backstory though) |
 |
| As a person who liked Kabuto a lot from the very first ep he appeared in, even as I'm sure he's gonna die soon, this guy definitely is one of my personal favorites in this show. After seeing his backstory I'm even more sure in my opinion, he's such an intresting and well-build character, spies always have fucked up lives. Maybe there's something wrong with my taste but damn it, I don't get why Naruto fanbase dislikes him so much... |
