Naruto -Shippuuden- 241

Published by Hinano at 8:39 pm under Naruto

So while the Sakura vs Sasori battle was pretty well done, the fillers of Team Gai and the old grandpa talking left me in a blur because I went all “ADD FILLER MODE” ™ and only went back to paying attention when they brought us back to the cave. And everything was going well until we were once again reminded that the only thing Sakura gives a shit about is Orochimaru and Sasuke. Gahhhh!! And you know what the worst part is? I thought this was filler until I double checked my manga and then I got more pissed off. You know at this point in time, I have nothing against the current Sasuke. He’s not as emo. Actually he’s pretty self-composed and not an angry little bitch. However whenever they refer to “past Sasuke” from whoever’s pov, then I get all annoyed and reminded of how fucking annoying he was in Season 1. Actually as long as oro was around he was annoying in season 2 as well but once Oro died (woops spoiler!) he was pretty decent to me. Oh well anyway I also don’t feel Sasori’s voice fits him. I expected him to have a more girly voice or something because he looks so bishie…but he sounds like he could be a Yakuza member or something….and as funny as that sounds Akatsuki are not a Yakuza gang. ;)

Upcoming Attractions: Hopefully more fighting and less filler talk. Next week is also a 1 hour special.

    Sasori didn’t strike me as the bishie type at all. I expected him to sound more like Kakashi than a chick, in my mind. He’s a little more fem in the anime than he was in the manga.

    I haven’t watched it yet, but that observation struck me as odd. Had to comment, plus regarding the earlier HP conversation… EWWWWW Harry the other guy. I didn’t even know who he was so I googled it and found fan art of them tying each other up.

    holy **** how the hell did they *spoiler* ?!??!

    anyway I haven’t seen this episode yet and my sister was right, Sasori is kind of like a poor man’s Gaara.

    they need to quit stalling and get on with the new story line. we have a butt load of manga now so let’s pick up the pace they wont fall behind again >.

    Meh, I didn’t care for the fillers at all, The fight was pretty well done, I just hope they wrap the arc up before Christmas. I was really looking forward to the episode, my inner-Sasori Fangirl was calling me. HIS VOICE WAS AWESOME. XD

    Was Sasori that bishie in the manga? I can’t remember. He certainly looked the type in the anime, as the pic you posted proved. It’s been so long since I’ve read that arc… It pains me to think of when Shika’s arc is going to start.

    I also imagined Sasori to have a lighter hair color. Chiyo’s voice didn’t work for me in the first episode she appeared in, but now I couldn’t imagine another one. Seems perfect and very enduring.

    The old man speech was a good set up for the action that followed, but the Team Gai stuff hasn’t interested me at all. It’s like watching a commercial, you just wait till it passes and try to forget it happened.

    Yet another episode where nothing much really happens. I hope the 1 hour special would have more action to make up for it. Wouldn’t wanna spend an hour watching Naruto and realized that nothing really happened :(

    I liked how they updated on Gai’s team (probably because I got to see Lee~! x3) But other than that it was too overdrawn…

    is there a 1 hour episode next? it better be good and not long and drawn out! >.

    There were times in the manga when I prayed that Sakura won’t revert back to a fan girl again. We finally mold her into an independent woman and then she slips slightly. Ugh, I just want her to stay strong and not go all girlie the next time they meet, at least she didn’t in 309…
