Looks like Shizune got "robbed"...
Liked the small Konan action, was it in manga? I can't remember... if no then it was a nice edition. Also we finally found out real indentity of Pein, not that a lott of people didn't guess it already. And yay for Pein! To blow whole village like that, who else can boast about it? For me Pein always will be the strongest ninja.

"OMG! PAIN PROZO! OMFG! NARUTO'S EPIC ENTRANCE." -- the awesome quote by me for this awesome episode.
It's been such a long time since i got this excited over Naruto and i have to say OMFGZ. Pain is totally awesome. The Frog with the awesome perm is awesome too. Naruto's epic entrance with all his froggy friends was awesome too. And i have to agree that an epic soundtrack's missing to perfect the "let the world know pain", or something along the lines. AAHH. I can't wait till the next episode ><. |

That being said, could Pain always fly? I thought in the manga he just jumped really high and then blasted the hell out of Konoha. But the anime clearly makes him slowly fly to whatever altitude he needs to be at before unleashing his ultimate attack.
Also, I didn't like how Naruto was clearly shown at the end of the episode. Part of the fun of the manga chapter was just seeing a Gamabunta size plume of smoke appear within the Crater...I mean Konoha, right before the chapter ended, and then seeing Naruto in all his glory at the start of the next chapter. Additionally, was it just me or did the destruction seem a little...underwhelming compared to the manga (it was still good, just not great)...I think it was because the manga showed people in the streets right before and during the blast, so the destruction was more palpable (then again, maybe nothing could have lived up to my expectations). (It doesn't help that the particle animation (the animation for the debris and smoke) seemed a little shitty.) Also, I hate that Naruto's Sage Mode "eyeliner" is still orange. That shits supposed to be red! Last edited by james0246; 2010-05-27 at 11:55. |

Yeah the anime team didn't think things through when they made Deva fly whereas his power is exercising a sudden burst of attractive or repulsive force.
Anyway I agree it seemed underwhelming to me, I don't think it was because of the people in the streets though. In the manga the scene was powerful because of its suddenness. Deva jumps, small things happen everywhere including the death of Shizune building the pressure, and then BAM. Double spread displaying the equivalent of a nuke ravaging Konoha, instant OH SHIT! moment. The anime was slightly different because of its format, they built the tension a lot longer which is fine but it would have needed a good soundtrack to keep it going and then something powerful to follow the actual visual destruction. Lke often in Shippuden the soundtrack sucks which downplay the visual instead of supplementing it. |
