Well I don't mind a long fight, as long as it's interesting.

Speaking of Lee, I still love that fight scene with Lee in drunken fist mode. XD

ping pong.

There was only 1 interesting fighting scene in the naruto filler. And that was the fight with Hinate where she perfoms her new move.

You found that interesting? =/ I HATED, LOATHED that technique. It was just plain horrible. T_T

With that said, I kind of liked this episode. I'm not gonna read the manga until I've caught up with the Anime, though. I don't want it to feel SLOOOW that soon. =p

I thought it was ridiculously awesome. :D

Then again, I don't read the manga because that's like reading the script for a movie before going to see it in my opinion, which renders the movie pointless. I'm just lucky I'm not into manga or else my one of my favourite shows would probably turn into one of my least favourite shows since I'd get caught up in things like "this episode only covered half a chapter of manga" or "this character didn't make this speech in the manga" throughout the anime. I don't want that, I just wanna sit back and enjoy and have a good time. :)

You can have a good time reading manga. =D

With that said, I don't mind if some changes are made on the transition Manga-Anime. But I don't like is when senseless stories that go nowhere appear; or that simply don't fit on that universe. I hated the fillers in Naruto, I hated Hinata's technique, and I had to give up after episode 176.

True. Well, Hinata has the best battles in the fillers. Did you watch the one when they had to protect a runaway princess? That was interesting.

Haha i think we are like the only ones who are enjoying it for now! :P

To be honest it IS slow most of the parts, but I like the new feeling it has.. i had gotten tired of the previous Naruto series.. i dropped it when the fillers started. I was tired even before those fillers started...when suppossedely it was on the peak of the story.. lol I think the fillers would be more unbarable than thos in Bleach.. cause I tried to watch some scattered episodes here and there but I just couldn't. It felt like I was punishing myself for something. So after that I was hesitant to start Shippuuden but i'm glad I did. Till now it's pretty nice and good for a change.

Nah, me too :)

The fillers in the original Naruto were quite plentiful, but I got through those okay too. And I don't mind the pacing of this storyline so far. Sorry to keep repeating all that (over the last couple of episodes), but so many people are saying the opposite that I feel like I have to balance that out a little... meh.

I'm so glad I'm marathoning this. I think it's a bad idea in general to watch stuff like this and One Piece on a week by week basis.

I really don't know how I'm feeling about Shippuuden to be honest. I'm enjoying it, but i'm wishing for more at this point. I guess I've got 400+ episodes to be satisfied though.

I really dont understand it. Their is literally 0 atmosphere in the episodes. Weird moments of plain silence, no background music, etc. Naruto is totally off.

When you can't win, kill the innocent bystanders...classic evil last resort. It's clear that 1v1 Gaara is stronger, but attacking others always creates an opening.


I always love watching Gaara fight, and the Kakashi vs Naruto and Sakura contest was fine, but I don't like how the battles were playing alongside one another. It would have made sense to just make the Leaf village material into 1-2 episodes and then after Jiraiya warns Kakashi about the Akatsuki to move over to the Gaara fight.

Gaara got the recognition and love he yearned for from the villagers who now seemingly approve of him. Also damn....did Deidara just one member of the Akatsuki destroy more than half the village with his clay nuke?!? I wonder when will Hinata get introduced meeting all grown up Naruto.
