| Naruto was really strong this episode! :) However, based on the preview he's back to being wussy again next episode. I wish they'd keep his power level the same. I knew he was going to use a clone for the chakra gathering when they said the look left and right at the same time, that was a neat trick summoning them that way though. It's nice to see Naruto fight smart for once, I hope he still has more tricks up his sleeve. I want MORE!! |
 |
| It's nice to see Naruto fight smart for a change. Pain got his push power back! :O |
| Poor frogs. I can't wait to collect the Pain episodes together and watch them again at one go after this arc. |
 |
| There was something missing. It felt like they were stalling and the characters moved in slow motion a lot of the time. It didn't give you the feeling of an intense battle. |
| They put more on the toad battle and naruto compare to the manga which is really awesome |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
memorieswithin said: Agreed, the impact was was likely done! *_* Like others loved the strategy in Naruto's fight, toads Pa and Ma were great too!The new Rasen Shuriken is just awesome.... Poor Katsuyu in the omake. ^^; |
 |
| Wow! Genius! LOL! XD But what's up with the preview? >.< |
| loved the episod.e Nice to see Naruto planning ahead for battles :) Can't wait for the next episode (yeah, it's tmrw, lol) But still... *watches preview* Aah.. that part. Can't wait *remembers manga* mollymarie said: More MOre MOre!!!!!I want MORE!! I'd really love it id they made a special soon... things are so much more interesting now it just feels short. madaodono said: Oh yeah. I'm soo doing that once the ark ends. I'll be dedicating a whole day to be my watch-the-Naruto-vs-Pain-super-long-special day.I can't wait to collect the Pain episodes together and watch them again at one go after this arc. |

| Cool episode. Naruto's new moves are cool but Pain's "Almighty Push" pretty much owns. |
     |
| Ahh, Naruto's getting more smart with his moves.. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Naruto has become a beast! And a worthy main character, finally. His Rasengan variations kick so much ass. Too bad the animation sucks... |
 |
| Poor toads. :/ But it was a nice fight. |
| Tactics awesome |
 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. |
| Really nice to see Naruto doing a bit more strategizing... I can definitely remember a time when he always seem to blindly charge at the enemy all the time. XD Great episode... but I just want to see Pain dead. And the next episode? Um, not promising ("Nine Tails, Captured" or something!?). D: D: |

| Pretty cool fight, Pain having a "medic" or sorts, as well as summoners and the like, adds a nice bit of strategy to the fight. I'm not sure if it was exploited as much as it should have been, though. Also, I would have liked if Shikamaru and some others could have helped. Naruto may be having trouble, but if he ends up winning by himself I think he will be overpowered. Also, and I may be underestimating Pain, but he himself doesn't seem overly powerful. I think that if the Konoha ninja got together, they could beat him since alot of his tricks are known at this point. As it is Kishimoto is in danger of making all of the Konoha ninja not named Naruto look weak, imo. Not saying this isn't an interesting fight, I'm actually really enjoying it and I like what it has done for Naruto himself, I am just stating my concerns at this point. I could very well be wrong. |

Yeah you'll just have to see what happens moving forward. Their is plenty of great moments coming up. I am not sure i quite understand this comment though.

| Well, the other Ninja haven't done much so far and have gotten beat pretty handily. I like to think people like Shikamaru or Kakashi could do something if they knew Pain's strengths and weaknesses but as it is seeing Naruto *possibly* beat all Six Paths of Pain single handily just rubs me the wrong way. What worries me is that the series could go the Dragon Ball route and have Naruto completely leave everyone in the dust. In a series that has, imo, a pretty solid cast of characters, that would be a shame. Now, understand I am leaving Tsunade out of this. Her summo obviously was instrumental in keeping people alive as is the case for medical ninja in general, I guess. Thinking about it, though, maybe Naruto just lucked out in gaining the knowledge everyone else didn't know in their battles. |

| The clone idea was pretty damn smart, now where do they go from here though? |

| Having Sage Mode in reserve ain't such a bad idea! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Smart moves,but I really wonder if Kyuubi is going to escape. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| damn this battle is epic, though i must admit the pace they putted kinda ruining it, especially when they explaining. so now rasen-shuriken is 2nd technique like rasengan? :/ |
| Finally a decent fight scene in Naruto where he actually uses his brains and has a truly formidable opponent. Pain is still going strong. Naruto's shadow clones accumulating the senjutsu chakra was hella smart. |
 |
| I never expected that from Naruto! That was a clever strategy to preserve two clones in sage mode! This episode is great! |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
