They still use the same opening for new arc , i don't like it....

The opening changes every 26 episodes the ending around 13 on average though 1 or 2 have had shorter runs.

They never change the song because of the arc and if this is a short one they won't change the animation either.

[neshru]

Yeah, the opening always changes on the first week of April and on the first week of October. The Ending changes on the first week of January, April, July and October.

Hidden Waterfall is old they took part in the original chuunin exam in both the manga and anime and there leader was the focus of an OVA.

Fuu the 7 tails is a girl and has already been seen in the war just crunchyroll fucking up again.

[HayashiTakara]

Yay Fuu! She's so adorable.... too bad she dies

so summoner Pein was originally a genin huh? I wonder how she dies...

[Levani]

Woah, was that the female Pein replacement? I didn't even notice xDD

I can't wait to watch Sakura impress everyone once she starts to smash the environment up.

[ookamigirl]

Still on the Chunin exam..
Guess we're stuck in the past for now.
Milking that cow hard...
It's good to be reminded of some things.
But this is just taking it too far when we're so close to the end.

[Kyral]

What, Fuu!?
They put my favourite Jinchuuriki in!?
Now I totaly have to catch up! >.<

[kampfer91]

So i guess she willl be captured in this act ?

[Kyral]

Hm... Could be... I just hope it won't feel like they're copying Utakata's arc.

[Alena_92]

gosh im super excited for the next episode..hinata and neji again..hmm..I want to see how Hinata had become this time..She is again matched with no less one of the strongest genin..I wonder how this 1 would went out..
and yeah the pein summoner is a genin..hmm..This is something to look forward to..knowing that hidden rain genins are trained by konan this will be an action packed filler arc..I expect hidden rain genins are going to kick ass.. im happy to see a very cheerful jinchuriki with fu..His personality is interesting..I can't blame utakata's capture to be lame..hey what do u expect he was captured by pein..so obviously he's no match..even naruto almost was to be taken..thanks to kyubi-kurama gone nine tails and of course Hinata..otherwise he could have lost too.. im speculating that fu is captured by konan..since shes the only akatsuki member who haven't fought with any jinchuriki from the previous episodes..OMG this is gonna be really good!

[Artimus_Prime]

i thought kishi said fu was a girl…

anywho, can't wait to see hinata and neji perform the gentle fist kamehameha...

yeah..now i remember..In the biju song It says she's a kunoichi..hmmm..probably some misunderstanding in the translations..

[Levani]

It's definitely a mistranslation, the Japanese dialogue didn't mention the gender, English had to assume one.

Bad translation..... it's obvious she's a girl, even her profiles and in the games they call her a girl.

+1

I mean I'd like to see the ending to this show before I turn 40.

[Levani]

I was rewatching Naruto in dub with my little brother and god, I remembered what made me really mad back in the day. The first team 7 reunion, right after Sasuke kills Danzo, Studio Pierrot screwed this sub-plot up so much. Clip show, right after clip show, right after clip show, flashback inside a flashback, Jesus, guys... take a break O_O

Wouldn't it be better for them to do a clipshow separately in one single episode, rather than to cram it into canon material? It screws the plot up so much...this set of episodes are easily my most disliked. Also, Naruto's pretty popular, right? It's probably the most well known anime ever, right? Then why the flying rasengan doesn't Studio Pierrot have higher budget when it's making so much money?

[Kumagawa]

Well at least Shikamaru's test was fun and original.

But the 9 of them should have passed in different exams rather than the same one right before Naruto returns which is boring.

Also so Neji goes from passing a chuunin exam to being a jounin in weeks yeah great /s

[Levani]

Maybe Neji was so good in this exam that people thought, skip over Chuunin, make him Jounin instead.

[ookamigirl]

Still at it..
It was nice to see the younger versions once again.
The exam wasn't half bad either.
This feels like they are trying to return Naruto to it's beginnings.
Well, it was better then.
There weren't so many fillers and unnecessary skipping around.
