Finally the Akatski show up. It's getting pretty interesting but still... nothing exciting happens during the fights... oh well. Lets finish this arc up so we can move onto the Sasuke/Itachi arc please....

new op and ed, nice! i loved shino's reaction in this episode that and everyones reaction to lee's strategy, and why did no one think of using hearing to beat the enemy? and now shino is back on the offensive with his new bugs, can't wait to see how it works out

I loved the new OP and ED, but I'm too fond of this ark. Fillers bug me. I do like the kid though, and his relationship with Guren.

OK, seriously, after this 2 episodes, I am taking a break for a few episodes.
Hopefully they will do something interesting to make me come back. I am getting sick of waiting for something to happen.

In response to the new open/end
New Open: Eh, indifferent to it. I prefer the last one, but I guess this one will grow on me over time
New ending: THANK YOU ANIME-GODS! No, I'm not in love with the new ending, Im just glad that bochkoi ending is finally finished and over with! I could not stand it

Now, about the episode itself... Decent fighting, nice to see Shino get some use in-battle. TenTen, however, is useless as per usual (raining weapons...sigh)
Also, love that the Akatsuki are getting air time (And I am so glad that they picked Takagi Wataru as the voice for Tobi. I loved his voice in Ippo, and this is a perfect fit for him)

I can't wait until the entire arc is finished though. Yukimaru has got to be one of the, if not THE most annoying characters in all of Naruto... I will be glad when him and his "i wanna go home" speals are over. Naruto's obsession with him doesn't help matters either >_<

well that was quick... i thought kiba and the others would have one heck of a fight. i guess it's a good thing it only took them half of an episode.

the new OP and ED are okay. i'm just happy seeing something different for once.

yeah the teeth are a bit weird...

*edit: oh yeah. lol at the new OP with Saucegay. Fanservice anyone?
*edit 2: how the hell did NONE of Tenten's weapons hit the enemy while they were in that smoke screen!?!

I really digged this episode, Lee was as awesome as ever. LOL guts sensor??!! sounds like some kind of mecha device in TTGL.

The OP was nice but it's not as good as Blue Bird and like others have said the teeth and the hands in the new ED are like kinda weird but other than that it was nice also but nothing can beat BACCHIKOI!!

This was pretty much my thought. I was fairly engaged throughout the entire 40+ minutes.

Combined episodes again~
Ahhh, that opening song~ New ending song is cool~
I really like Shino. He is funny, and he is not even trying.
Guts sensor for the win ahahaha. More Tobi, please!!
Yes, Guren, you killed Yuukimaru's mother.

good episode! New OP is not as good as the last one. Can't say anything about the ED because the video I watched muted the ED for whatever reason :/

Nooo...I love Bacchikoi!😫 I always sang along with it whenever an episode ends. Oh well! Nothing I can do. Theme songs tend to change anyway.

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!
