Hey, this episode wasn't as bad as I expected... of course they had to remember us we're still watching filler after all, so they added a gigant spider.

DeDe · 2008-05-22, 14:06

Naruto's first boy/girl(and no Sasuke doesn't count as a girl) kiss is not with Hinata. Not with Sakura. It's with Fuuka the filler villain.

Spoiler:

Even though it was a kage bunshin, Naruto feels the sensation and retains the memory so it counts. And he blushed. It seems like Fuuka has the ability, through kissing, to collect people's elemental chakra and use it since she attacks with all five elements. Foreshadowing to a villain coming soon.

I guess monk boy will get captured by the main bad guy since it seems like they are after him. Still waiting for Team 10 to show up and more Asuma backstory.

Spoiler:

lol... I won't complain considering this dude needs some serious growing up to do. If kisses helps then, damn it, let every young and old, boy and girl, villains and heroes should pucker up and kiss Naruto indiscriminately regradless of their motivation behind a kiss.

I'm seriously tempted to watch this episode.

Phenomenal · 2008-05-22, 17:01

Does anyone know when these filler episodes will end? Any exact dates maybe?
Thanks guys and gals!

edit by mod: sigh... I sympathize with TheWanderer about the misuse of the term "filler" in such cases!

As in the past we can expect them to be a few Episodes as with the Raiga Arc, or an entire Filler Season. I for one give the Arc atleast 15-20 More Episodes before it over. However knowing Naruto everything is drawn out so.....it could be anywhere to 30+.

As long as the producers fill their pockets with money it could be even longer.

Spectacular_Insanity · 2008-05-23, 01:21

I thought this was a pretty good episode. Plenty of action. Sai is still clueless, and Naruto had a little creepy moment with that one Kiss of Death lady. Oh, and the designer of the labyrinth is still as androgenous as ever.

And Sora did absolutely nothing this episode but have 10 seconds of being an ass.

And where the hell is Kakashi? His Lightning typed chakra would be perfect against these guys.... *sigh*

thermopyle · 2008-05-23, 01:32

For a filler arc, it's been entertaining. It's been more entertaining than most of the main Shippuuden episodes.

Uh, isn't Kakashi resting at the hospital?

No. Which, I might add, is a HUGE change in pace. According to Tsunade, he and Jiraiya are out scouting to see what Akatsuki's up to. I don't know if they are working together, though.

Frenchie · 2008-05-23, 05:58

I can't remember how long it has been since I've been entertained by these episodes. Naruto was priceless, and the short flashback: right on cue.

When fillers start getting more entertaining than manga, that's when you start wondering what the hell is wrong with the series

FlareKnight · 2008-05-23, 06:25

Was actually a pretty solid episode. Of course Naruto's lack of variety doesn't help him here. Already used shadow clones and rasengan. End result of it all is stuck in a torrent of water tehn getting hit by a lightning technique. Was the kiss moment of course even if it was a clone "I'm not good with her type."

Guess fillers can have solid pacing since they aren't trying to stall. After all fillers in themselves are stalling, so no need to make it ridiculous by stalling within the fillers.

Irkalla · 2008-05-23, 12:27

I'd switch Naruto for Jiraiya to fight that chick

You're one strong individual. I couldn't do that if I tried

Nastya-sama! · 2008-05-23, 17:59

what I find interesting is the fact that there is not one kissing scene in naruto except sasunaru kiss..
so, yeah, this episode was refreshing

and for a change in pace, kunoichi aren`t useless in fillers..

9TailsOfDestruction · 2008-05-23, 18:40

Yeaaaaa Naruto got to experience his first kiss. Good for you Naruto, even though it was a bushin. This episode was hilarious, those clones jumping and dancing around mocking that chick was PRICELESS, im getting an avatar of it thats how much it made me laugh lol

blazingkyubi · 2008-05-24, 01:53

these fillers have been good so far lots of action and refreshing after the long drawn out eps thev been having..... so sad that im enjoying the fillers more then the sasuke and sai arc!!!!
