The real shit is about to start and nex week filler, are you kidding us?!

I say it again, Kabuto is way too overpowered. Dozens of Edo Tensei like it's nothing and he still didn't do the probably most powerful Edo Tensei... I hate him, I hate him so much.

Why are you guys so surprised, i posted it in the comments on the last DB.

In any case, its not really a filler arc, but more like a special celebration for naruto's 10th anniversary, you know much like one piece had its anniversary special. So it may be interesting. But yeah like all of you, im very physced to see the 4th world war arc start. Why the hell does wikipeida say that all of these 4 episode specials are airing on April 4th??

Epic episode, fourth Shinobi war finally begins xD

Naruto next training has begun ;o

Darui, Mifune, Kitsuchi, Kakashi all generals ;o As well Gaara who is commanding them all ;o

Former Akatsuki members, Former Jinchuuriki, Previous Kages (Gaara's dad 4th Kazekage there ;o), got Neji's Dad, Dan, Elder Chiyo, Asuma :O Oh I missed out Zabuza and Hakku xD

Plus all those Zetsu clones...xD

That's pretty much all the one's shown so far, can't wait to see when they all clash haha.
Been waiting for this to get animated for long time ;o

But damn at the preview of the next episode....a filler...that kind of shot me down...*facepalm* xD Well I waited long enough since I saw read this in the manga, guess a little longer can't hurt now can it? ;o

Nobody caught the Mixukage mistake it seems, fail on the directors part.

I wish people would stop their constant bitching about fillers. I don't love fillers as much as any of you but they are necessary. Look what happened to Bleach, the anime was over because there weren't any fillers. It's only four weeks. Besides it seems we're going down memory lane seeing as how the original soundtrack is coming back. I figured all of you would have learned by now. Chill or just watch another series in the meantime.

My screen buffered on Sasuke's face<33333
xDDD Lawlz. First time I appreciated slow internet :P
Just hearing his voice made me go CRAZY :D (And I love the way that he sits :D So cool and awesome-like) Although what he said made me really sad :/ I just miss Sasuke so much. I can't wait till they catch up to the current manga because I heard that Sasuke was in it :P

Besides my inner fangirlism for Sasuke, I really enjoyed this episode. It was interesting and engaging. I'm loving the story right now... It's making me really anxious to find out what'll happen in the war. Especially all those Zetsus... o_O

Looks like more "training" with Naruto. I just love Naruto's enthusiasm about everything. It just makes me so happy :P He's so filled with awesomeness<33

Oh, and Tsuchikage is a BEAST. He POSTPWNED that turtle! (xD I just realized today that postponed has pwned in it and I went crazy so this is like my new word :DD)

Yamato!!!!!! I feel so horrible for him. He must feel miserable because he has to give up the information.

And a new headband! It looks so cool :P
Shizune :3
Hinata! :D
Neji :D
Sakura!! :3
Shikamaru, Choji, Ino, Ten-ten, everyone! So happpy~~!

I loved that CG at the end. So beautiful in showing how crazy this war's gonna be :D Reminded me of Sarumon and Isengard, Lawlz!

ITACHI!!!, Nagato, Utakata, Sasori, Deidara, ZABUZA + HAKU, Chiyo-ba, KIMIMARO, ASUMA, AND DAN?!!?!?!?!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!??! AMAZING. SIMPLY AMAZING. It just excites me so much!

I am so excited for next episode. THE WAR IS GONNA START<33333333333

5/5 - Not the best pacing but I don't care because it was just plain awesomeness and made me super excited!

Oh wait. Looks like a filler next week. Call me stupid and an idiot, but I don't care because Sasuke's (and Naruto :3) a main character in it<3
And I get my Naruto soundtrack back. Probably gonna pull out some of my sheet music from it and mess around on my piano today :D

Yeah i think any non manger readers will be plesently surprised just how kishimoto develops this next arc. Many many characters that we all know and love resurface and when i mean many, i mean "all" and start to get full screen time. I mean when is the last time we have seen Gaara take in any action, ,since the first arc of the series lol. So its great to see him and all the rest of the major characters of naruto, the original konoho 11, all the jouinins, Sasuske, hokages, etc and many more characters that i can't say take an active role in this next arc. Their is also many revelations and story twist and this arc is going to be the largest naruto arc in the series by far.

Almost to big, im probably thinking they might might split it up into two separate arcs but i don't know.

In any case, starting May, its going to be a great rest of the year for naruto fans.

Fillers NUUUUUU!!! seems early to already be going back to them.

ya know, Orochimaru seems almost like a pushover now, Naruto can control the kyubi's chackra, Sasuke has Susanoo, Madara is Madara, and Kabuto took all of his techs and superboosted them... kinda puts things in perspective when you think about how big a deal he was.

I kinda wish Hidan WASN'T immortal so he could return as well >.>

i was wondering when the fillers were going to start lol
guess that this episode answer my doubts...

speaking the truth, i prefer a 4~6 fillers than a full filler season every 2 seasons.
even thou the manga is still quite a bit far these fillers are for the best. we dont want to see another bleach

this part on the manga was awesome but in anime it's FREAKING AWESOME

Well that was interesting, they're just outnumbered by 20,000! Those 100K Zetsu clones are way superior than your average genin shinobi or samurai and then those corpses, even a single one of those when reanimated is a force to reckon with. Why the hell were not guarding those corpses like some national top secret weapons or WMD anyway? I don't care about the other hidden villages or those dead wanted shinobi but Konoha and Sunakagure should know better. I saw Granny Chiyo (The Sand shinobis or maybe Sakura as well, will probably be pissed!), Hizashi Hyuga, Dan (Tsunade might go berserk or what not.) and Asuma Sarutobi (Oh man, spare Shikamaru the sight of it.) Goddamn force multipliers. XP

Another flashback or whatever? A whole month? Ah what the heck, I'll watch it anyway. XD

I don't see why the feel there is a need for filler next. They are taking so long with getting the war started and then once it starts they are going to add on a bunch of stuff not in the manga anyway. They got plenty they could cover without producing worthless episodes.

Just when they finally get to the war <_<.

Can you not READ?? its a 10th anniversary special. It is not just a normal filler arc. Most all long on going shonen, like bleach, one piece, and naruto has them. They chose it because its 10 years, since naruto has begun and what better place to put a special then right before the big war arc. Because they didn't want to put it in the middle obviously. The manga is far enough ahead of the anime, that they would not have a another filler just to waste more time. These specials are a necessity with in the series franchise, kind of like a celebration if you will celebrating 10 years in the making. I don't understand why its so difficult to figure that out and with these specials comes some new news as well including the new movie 6 of shipuuden directed and written by kishimoto him self as part of the 10th anniversary. I'm sure you will be seeing more of that with these upcoming episodes.

In any case, quit bitching so much, its only 4 episodes for god sakes.

If anything your the one bitching by going on about it how it's not filler.
And I never said it was a normal filler act I just said it was filler.
Regardless if its just flashbacks or not in the end its all the same.
Jesus kid there is no need for you to be such a big internet hero with your paragraph on how it's not normal filler.
Another thing lets get this clear no such thing happened in the manga so shut up.

Its just funny how everyone is surprised about the filler, in any case, i didn't mean to start a huge ass argument over it. I am just tired of hearing complaints bout fillers in every single post. I am not even remotely trying to be an internet hero, so i have no idea what your even taking bout their. Also i never said anything bout it not being in the manga, i said that most on going shonens have specials like this.


On topic: You can see the huge difference in quality production, compared to what we just watched and the fillers coming up. lol. I just hope the upcoming war arc has the highest quality in the series, we deserve top of the notch sound and video production for this next big arc. Well technically the arcs already started according to the manga, episode 256 is the start of the war arc. But i hope the quality is consistent just with 256 and will be good.
