They should just write Hinata in to satisfy us Hinata fans, even if its not important.. I just wanna see her again XD

[Neobody]

Eh.. Naruto is Dissapointed He is the only Genin among his Age =.="

[Blaine]

Yeah but he has spent several years outside the village so he couldnt have taken the chuunin exams, since he has been trained by jiraiya he should be above genin level.

genin is just a title to me, it is obvious he is stronger than a genin

kabuto was a genin too, and he was way older then naruto.

Uh...Kabuto was pretending to be a genin...Naruto IS a genin...

[Rahan]

Well, Kabuto never passed the chuunin exam, so he was indeed a genin. There is not much difference between always forfeiting the exam and not even bothering to take it (Naruto the last 3 years)

Ok Naruto really failed once, but he remains undefeated in the competition.

I don’t want to start a debate about Kyuby and Naruto, but Kyuby is part of Naruto, is like saying what Defeated Zabuza the first time wasn’t Kakashi, it was the Sharingan.

[darkjester]

^ - agree

Naruto 2-0

[cheese no koma]

its good to see ramen girl again and kakashi looking different aside from his normal jonin vest. The amount of action was a bit of a let down, they could've left out naruto's premonition about garaa (i.e the egg cracking and flashbacks) and finish off kankuro's fight right there. A 6 from me.

[Sazelyt]

I just entered this thread to see whether I was right or wrong in my decision to stop watching the anime after the third (or was it the second?) episode, with a little hope that it was wrong. And, unfortunately, it seems that I was right.

It is really sad to see the anime producers continuing in a completely opposite direction of what they promised with a brand new cover on the anime and after that satisfactory introduction.

If they were planning to go that way, they could have waited a few months more before starting the new series. I am sure many people would have preferred a delayed almost filler-less version compared to the current one. After seeing this, I cannot help but appreciate the efforts of the One Piece producers, despite the filler colored version of the story, right now.

Not so sure about that optimism... i mean it doesn't really work that well in this case... i mean, as much as they call it a new series, it's really just a continuation of the first one.

That kind of thinking only really works brand new series... afterall, the main reason for that slowness in the begining is because the series needs to take time to develop the characters and kick them off, especially when the characters are only just starting to leanr about themselves... With naruto part 2, all that is pretty much done, we already know the characters and such, so there isn't as much need for that early development...

Overall, i just gotta say, we just saw a fight agaisnt two major badasses... Garra versus a member of Akatsuki... And so far, for the most part, the best reaction the fight has gotta was "it was ok/fine", along with whole alot of dissapointment. Back in the days of Nartuo part1, before those fillers, a fight of this caliber would have probably garnished nothing less than "OMFG awsomeness!"... Its really sad how they could screw up such a fight... i fear for the future battles of the series...

Really, that soon? and here i thought it might be even long than that, like 40-50

Actually, Kabuto isn't even an actual Genin. For the most part, every ninja from the village of sound has no rank at all. Kabuto included.

I'll second that... One piece has added filler to their battles and such aswell and had some filler and for the most part they have handled them rather well. Even on the verge of what looks like it will probably end up being a long filler season of like 1-2 years, due to how close the anime and manga are, there is some good hope that One piece will manage to still hold on to it's quality with pure filler material... One piece apparently seems to have a writing staff with talent, as opposed to the talentless hacks on naruto

[BonBon]

Agreed. One of my favourite One Piece episodes is actually filler (Usopp and the fireworks girl).

Anyway, some of the additions to this episode made me pause. Shouldn't Kakashi's ANBU tattoo have been visible? Or was it, y'know, henna?

Yup but he graduated from Konoha's academy. Let's say his cover was a Konoha Genin.

Rofl looks like they got me on that one lol. They had the seal and everything down... maby they copied and pasted lol.

[BlackShinobi07]

It's a good plan. With 20-25 minutes of filler and less episodes per month the anmie will never catch up.

[Sinaura]

God-awful, horrible, the only good part about this week's installment of Naruto was the ending.
