Perhaps if I actually gave a damn about Iruka, I'd be able to enjoy this. Unfortunately, I don't. Now if they're gonna throw us some more flashback filler, how about showing us what took place during the second chuunin exams? I'd love another forest of death and tournament arc that shows us how almost all of the next generation got promoted.

It's important to remember that Iruka is one of the most popular characters in Naruto in Japan. The only characters to ever beat him in the popularity poll were Kakashi, Sasuke, Naruto, Shikamaru, and Deidara. So the Japanese will probably like that Iruka is getting some attention. But that doesn't mean he can carry a mini-arc.
If there were more focus on the rookies, then this would have at least been entertaining. Their few moments were the highlights. I just can't bring myself to care about Iruka, but it could be okay if the rookies were mostly shown. If this were a real class, at least 70% of the girls in his class would be rolling their eyes over how smug he acts. He is not even that attractive. But this is fantasy so I guess every girl has to love Sasuke.

This episode wasn't really about Iruka. It was more about Naruto. And I don't know why so many would give it a low score. It's not traditional filler. No stupid filler character that Naruto has to identify with. No stupid filler villains we can see. It was done so we can see how far Naruto has come.
Look at Sasuke. Look at Naruto. Who is the better guy now? I thought Hinata was going to go all mixed martial arts on Shino when he was dissing Naruto. Man, Shino was a smug bastard back then. Still is. You sound bitter, Hunter. Why won't girls like the nice guys? But I think DeDe's point is that it's unrealistic that every girl would like Sasuke. There would probably be a lot of Kiba, Shikamaru, Naruto and yes even Shino fangirls in that class. The anime overdoes it. |

Quite the opposite really, I always have been a jerk myself.
That being said Sasuke is supposed to be really incredibly good looking, that alone is sometime enough to get away with murder. The rest is just the cherry on top. Anyway I just saw the episode and I would like my time back please. |

I enjoy the naruto anime because i'm skipping all the filler episodes, that's probably what everyone above the age of 6 should do |
