Yeah is that shitty technique where artwork get completely ruined. I don't want to see that studio make another episode again.

The animation for Pain vs Kyubi was beyond epic. The artwork was what sucked, but it seems this episodes' artwork made sure to correct the mistakes from last time.


What you don't get is that that animation is an illusion. Is not really good at all, they just destroy the artwork by making lines all over the place to give the illusion of good movement because they are incapable of doing solid good movement with more detailed frames.

I felt deja vu when Tsunade woke up, but then I remembered that I cheated and read a little of the manga when the direction of the episodes slowed to a halt a few weeks back!

I'm glad I wasn't crazy when I noticed the different animation too haha.

Yeah nice one, after a long while, it relieved the dark atmosphere of the anime a little bit. Yet the anime series is getting a lot more boring. Why do they insist on putting those flashbacks that we've watched thousands of times before? And they are not even short. Flashbacks on how Sasuke left Konoha, lasting almost 10 min, bored me to death last time on several episodes.

Obviously money, but they're losing my viewership with this insidious move.

I quite liked this ep it had a nice bit of comedy too break up the darker atmosphere that had been held in previous episodes. Now that it's been mentioned those long flash backs have been quite a drag recently but I suppose they have there reasons. I thought it was a smart move too have the Lady Tsunade wake up at the end as it brought a small flutter of joy back into Konoha. Although I did think that Kakashi would have made a good choice for Hokaga!

I see they're taking their time now we're between story arcs.

Also, loved the new ED animation but the song irritates me more than Jitensha!

duh, nothing:P just wanted to see what would happen if I try to blemish the sanctuary of those guys. Needed to know if those guys even watch naruto or if they are just always ranting why there is no loli...

But everything about the animation was "dead" serious -.-' and that wasn't off-topic.


honestly, your last few posts in this topic just reek of /b/ and /a/ go back there.

Loved the part where Kakashi said that Guy was reassuring. XD

The challenge was hilarious as well.
Guy really knows how to brighten Kakashi's mood. :D

the ED song was horrible, but I liked the video though.

I'm not really sure if this is a filler as I don't read the manga.. but I thought it was pretty well written.. The part with Kakashi Vs Guy seemed like a filler but it was hilarious which made it fine to watch.. Tsunade waking up was unexpected.. felt sorry for Kakashi only having to spend a few days as a "Hokage" LOL :-)))))

Exactly. I hate how no one can tell the difference between good animation and bad animation. Pain Vs Kyubi was incredibly well animated. The ART wasn't as good OK (Altho I call it style), but Animation >>>>>>>>>>>>> Art by far seeing as the Art in Naruto is always good but the animation is only good once every 100 eps or so. I hope they go back to it and not listen to some.

Then again I'd prefer the Sasuke Vs Deidara, which had the same animation quality + also remained some art.

Good ep, I was thinking Tsu died for a bit since I read a lot of spoilers. Expected though since I thought it was weird to have a sixth hokages face on the wall while the fifth might still wake up..

Ohgeez. I seriously thought Tsunade had died.

Pretty good episode. I didn't even realise that a large part of it was filler. It was just that enjoyable, what with all the silliness and shenanigans that Kakashi and Gai were getting up to. :)

and yet at the end i was seriously about to jump up from the chair with "YAAAAAAY!!" xD thats the best thing that've happened in a long long time X'D im soooooo happy! Go tsunade!! :D

But well... i always love Kakashi and Gai when they're at their challenges ^^ so hillaious...

Oh dang i cant stop crying from relief XD I missed Tsunade so much :D i was just fearing she was dead when Shizune was like that T_T im so happy... even thou Kakashi might be a great Hokage too then he just cant replace Tsunade... plus i dont really think Kakashi would like being Hokage xD

An episode without 10 minutes of flashbacks? Cool. And it's Kakashi centered, even better.

Too bad the anime can't be like this all the time because of those dragging fillers, it's getting annoying.

funny episode especially the foot race between gai and kakashi.

im glad the hokage monument wasn't tainted by danzo's face.

and as much as i like kakashi i think it would look weird to have his face on the mountain.

looks like naruto-chan will be the real 6th hokage

AHAHAHHA, I thought the same.

Imo this was one of the most epic episodes in the whole anime. So touching and yet so funny; and it was a really good combination of those two; I would even dare say almost perfect IMO XD.
Next episode seems really interesting....

Oh, and was it just me or the animation of the new ending has a lot of similarities with Soul Eater animation? ahahaha, maybe just my imagination XD

One of my absolute favorite episodes in the series.
Kakashi carries the burden more and more. He lives in pain. Guy-Sensei cares for him, their true friendship is priceless.
I do not hate Tsunade, but I really wanted to see Kakashi as Hokage for more than 200 episodes.

Karin hides behind Kakashi because she doesn't want to be interrogated by Ibiki jajaj it seems she is starting to like the people in Konoha. Loved the episode. Guy is a very nice person. He started to cry when Kakashi recognised him as an equal, which means Guy admires Hatake. Also, Tsunade waking up and Naruto speaking as a leader... Everything was amazing

Naruto: I'm not being selfish but I refuse to answer questions, explain what happened and will walk away from you while you're talking. I'm definitely not selfish, though.

I surprisingly missed Tsunade. She's trash as a fighter, but for the most part was a good leader.

I never disliked Karin so I kinda feel for her being a prisoner and being interrogated after being betrayed.

It felt like forever since there's been a laid back episode.

i believe it's been long time since i laughed so much at naruto, most last arc episodes were heavy, good laugh for a change.

the whole "kakashi is 6th or 7th" felt to me as filler, good thing tsunade had woken up.

I love these silly and relaxed episodes man, and now I love Karin too, I talked about her dead before but now I hope she doesn't die.

Shizune fucking baited me lol, I really thought Tsunade died.

And Naruto looks weird without his headband.
