Good to be back to the story and I admit it's been a while since I've watched Naruto but the animation seems worse then I remember.

I just can't understand why they didn't modify the opening like they used too since were back in the cannon arc, maybe they are just getting lazy.

Decent episode. Still indecisive about the ending. I don't really understand it. Is Naruto afraid of the dark???

The episode was good, as long as there are no more fillers then I am happy. I'm glad Naruto and Bee finally meet. Don't know what to make of the new ending theme though.

The clone had the eyes of Kyuubi? I missed that. Could have sworn his eyes were black and red with no slits in the pupils. Whatever.

The other ending was better. Only the very last part of the current ending is good. They brought back the "Naruto getting back Sasuke" concept. Not needed.

Alright episode. Liked the ED. Really beautiful how he goes into the darkness to take Sasuke's hand. Reminds me of the song, "I'll Follow You Into The Dark".

Back to canon... lost all interest now sadly... I'm hoping I'll get back into it. The whole "defeat your other self" is such a cliche, but hey, it's Naruto.

NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT EPISODE. I don't really care about Motoi and Killer Bee's relationship.

4/5

So I skipped all of the filler, but I see in the opening Sai, Sakura, and Naruto flying over water and pulling out some Sailor-Planet ninjutsu. I presume that happened someplace in the filler...anyone care to point me towards the related eps, and advising if it is worth watching?

OP and ED usually have no meaning to the show. They can hint at a few things that might come in the future but that depends though. They're pretty much there to take up time and play some music and give credits to the staff.

Well I'm glad that the fillers are over but man was that episode weak. Well, it wasn't too great in the manga so I guess that we'll just have to get through it.

The new ED is rather interesting.

FINALLY fillers are over!!
And nice way to start it. Other people seem to not like this episode that much, I thought it was pretty good though!! Lol, maybe it's just cuz i've spent the last several weeks watching the fillers, so this is like sweet relief.

Very interesting ending! The style is much different than what I'm used to, but it's really good! And the song is amazing!

I gave it a 4/5, it wasn't amazing, but it was pretty good. There were some funny points, like when Killer Bee showed up and everyone was confused. The look on Naruto's face is awesome. Not looking forward to the next episode, I'm ready for the Nine-Tails!

The fillers were definitely not worth the time. Mostly endless journeys to nowhere by boat and retrospectives on some of the minor characters.

I'm glad they're getting back down to business! =)

Completely random fillers. Sure there's some interesting needles in a haystack, but all of them are completely unrelated to the opening song. I suggest you watch 242, it's like the transition into the canon.
235 is one of the best ones IMO, but it may be a fangirl thing xD.

Finaaaaly back to org. storyline! About time right. We got to see Naruto's dark side as well and he looked badass(the eyes, yea the eyes. Though I wished for more fighting, that would be cool, anyway!). Why no new opening!? That one stings.. :/
Bee's rap iz no-no good, whee!Naruto's just worser :P

WELL, I've been longing for this day to come, and the the next common days of my Thursdayz :) New ED is awesome too!

Well lets not forget that some of the filler arcs have transitioned manga material in it. Like the 12 guardian ninja arc supposedly starts at episode 54. Which can really throw people off if their following a guide. The first 3 episodes 54-56 is all canon material and is pretty important at that, the true filler arc starts at episode 57. So for those that don't know, it is kind of confusing in some area, where they mix filler with canon.

That's disappointing. Judging by everyone's answer, essentially, the Op had more interesting stuff that the entirety of the filler season. That's just sad.

A fight with yourself =.= That's the most uninteresting fight ever since it won't ever end. But it kind of make sense...Kyuubi like the hatred self, defeating hatred and get control over kyuubi. But if kyuubi is on hatred side, then he should be winning right?

Not a damn thing happened. I think opening 7 is a good example on not predicting what's gonna happen. To me, openings are just short amv used to promote upcoming artists for their careers.

it is possible that that's some scene from one of the (upcoming?) shippuuden movies. I wouldn't know since i only watched one of them but i did notice that many openings were based on the movies xD animation in movies is done completely different and generally better than cheap episodes xD

that's a good point, but I think they usually also make it very obvious they're promoting a movie.

Wow, in just 3 days from 160 to 240...skipping fillers surely is fun. This show is actually quite good when fillers are ignored. Glad I decided not to drop it completely.

As far as this episode goes, it wasn't bad, but I have a feeling they're going to lighter mood, which is not all that bad, show was starting to be gloomy during those Sasuke fights. I just hope they don't drag this whole story for too long.
