Naruto -Shippuuden- 238

Published by Hinano at 6:56 pm under Naruto

Ok so I guess I am somewhat officially back but I’m behind way too many shows to go back and blog them now…so I’ll just continue my usual schedule as of today. Those of you who were like “you’re wrong, Naruto isn’t gonna be just about them breaking the rock” well guess what suckasss…IT WAS ABOUT THEM BREAKING THE ROCK! Unless you consider Gai grunting and them showing the sky & trees for 3 minutes as “quality plotline” or them waiting for Itachi to give an answer for another 2 minutes while Deidara & Sasori stared. Also at the end when they finally broke the damn rock, Deidara’s giant bird (pictured on the manga page) was missing in action. I have the manga easily accessible now so I can make comparisons.

Upcoming Attractions: Team Gai wastes time fighting their clones while Chiyo & Sakura get down & dirty with puppets.

    yeah, that crawled like a crippled snail. i didn’t hate it though, because:

    1) it was drawn fairly well, imo.
    2) neji’s expression during the Team Gai/fight-o huddle made me laugh. so did the wireless radio joke. i’m easily amused.
    3) I was looking forward to the sakura-boulder-breaking moment anyway.

    I hope they don’t give short shrift to sakura’s battle because that went on for several chapters. otoh, at this pace, that means we’re going to be watching chiyo and sakura fight for a couple of months straight. ^_^

    That episode was just fucking obnoxious.

    Hinano, there are 2 “Naruto 237’s” here. Isn’t this one “Naruto 238″?

    Yah, it was only worth watching for the last 5 minutes or so, otherwise it was rather annoying.

    Anyone else notice that they didn’t do the ‘Gaara floating in nothingness’ scene? Either way the Anime seems rather sloppy compared to the manga now. They seriously need to get some better animators.

    It was to be expected I guess. On to the next episode! XD

    Wow that’s just sad they are dragging it out too far.

    Dang I haven’t watched this show in ages! Life just wont permit me to waste 30 mins on an anime that I wasn’t too enthused about in the first place. Maybe when I come back to anime in 2-3 years they’ll be caught up to the manga…ha.

  11. DenaNo Gravatar UNITED STATESon 27 Jun 2007 at 3:56 pm

    Not anymore, i’ve returned ;P
    it was so much fun :D

    I thought the episode was okay. The only part that annoyed me was the Gai-sensei grunting scene…^^; The Itachi pause was tolerable…

    @Retsgip - “Maybe when I come back to anime in 2-3 years they’ll be caught up to the manga…ha.”

    The anime will never fully catch up the magna.That’s why we had to sit through a YEAR+ worth of filler episodes.They slow down the pace intentionally during the regular season so that we CAN’T catch up to the manga,otherwise we’d have one of 2 scenarios:

    a.we go back to watching a year (or two) worth of fillers
    b.they take Naruto off the air for a year(or two) while they make new episodes.

    Which would you prefer to happen?Watch crappy Naruto eps or no Naruto eps?
