A lot of people hating on Shippuden. I have to agree. The promise of the first two episodes seems to be gone. The pacing is waaaaay too slow. It's like pulling teeth.
I always got the impression from this fight in the manga, that Deidara was an intelligent and analytical character. But the filler added to this fight makes him more bomb happy and incautious. Too many useless bombs.
The bell test takes away from the fight and I wish they would have done it earlier like in the manga. I hope the anime team could learn that they can do an episode without Naruto getting significant screentime. The preview does make me worry that we will juxtaposition between the fight and Naruto doing stupid "filler" tasks.
At least it was cool seeing a few seconds of Shika, Kiba, and Rock Lee. Lee with nunchucks!
