Just some talking, and a really powerful lightning jutsu. Where the hell did they get the idea for zombies?

Nice preview for the kizuna movie, looks good. The part at the end was pretty cool with Izumo and Kotetsu talking.

Anyone else wondering about the tactical skills of Asuma in this one?



Lack of logic = fail.

Seriously. In most animes, when something as big as this happens, it seems like their brains just stop working. When will they ever just stop for a few seconds and THINK ABOUT IT. I just want to go up to them and smack them for being so stupid. They all have brains for a dam reason... Excluding the "Number one, hyperactive, knucklehead ninja."
But hey, at least the upcomming Shippuuden movie, "Bonds" is comming up soon :P

Now this was a stupidly boring episode. No logic behind their tactics, poor dialogue, rubbish fighting and everyone seems to have downgraded to Genin level. How hard is it for a couple of Chuunin and Jounin ninja's to wipe out an army of zombies (>_<)?

So true xD

A rather boring episode, with the exception of the lighting jutsu, noting happened.

This episode was- too, along with the prev. double episode- a disappointment.
What happened here? how long they gonna drag this saga on? As its said before: not even a decent fight, all that happened is talk, talk, talk, talk...oh, did i mention: talk?
In the very beginning, they introduced the "elder naruto" as a cool guy, who can handle jutsus himself. Now all thats happening is he getting his ass kicked , then a support/main chr enters, and saves him. Personally, i hate Sora, and i wouldnt shed a tear if he died..in a most painful way, preferably.

Yeah it was pretty bad... I usually defend the series when talking Narto, but there is no excuse this time...

Its funny how they can spoil the who thing with one ep. compared to last weeks show, which I really enjoyed : \

Meh, I didn't even found it THAT bad as lots of you guys found it, but ofcourse the logic from Asuma stinks indeed lol. Not even only his logic, but what about his FIGHTING SKILLS ? I mean cmon.... those 4 dudes have been dead and not able to train for so long, and Asuma's skills only got WORSE cuz he got a little bit older ? What a loser, he def didnt train enough the tard =p

This episode was all set up, hopefully for fights next week (although, I think I said that last week...). All things considered, it was pretty slow. I even spaced out when Naruto and Sora were talking near the beginning of the episode. T_T

I didn't think it was that bad. It was more used I think just to uncover the last bits of the plan to obliterate Konoha (with the Limelight thing), and to build up to the actual fights. So next episode is what will probably contain good fighting, though...they'll probably ruin those, but we'll see.

Wasnt too bad, compared to most other episodes... its just that they should decide to end the anime in one month or less... and I dont get why all of you guys only want boring ever the same fighting... personally I prefer some dialogues or some real logic which was clearly lacking in this episode...

These fillers are bad, but they still have some way to go to scrape the barrels of pure loathing that were the original Naruto fillers. I just wish they'd either get on with the story again or put some more effort into creating enjoyable filler (which is not an oxymoron, I assure you).

i didnt think this episode was THAT bad, i thought this ep and the previouis double were better than most of the ones before that when everyone was pissing about in the fire temple and whatnot. one thing that anoyyed me, why was everyone counting on shikamaru to come up with a defense lol. hes smart but shouldnt they have better milatry stratagists and that lol

Naruto shippuuden has gone so boring. This is so lame. Konoha is the greatest shinobi village and boom. Four jerks just happen to walk in and kill all! What the hell is that? LAME!

HAHA! I'm done laughing on how disappointing is this episode.

I thought fun and more interesting things will happen in this filler, cause we don't know what will happen here in fillers cause it is not in the manga.

But my hopes let me down. Haha! LOL! Never thought it would be so dumb like this. Looks like they're just sitting down and relaxing while making this filler arc.

I kind of liked the episode, I like the Asuma fight idea and can see him wanting it to be one on one, anyway the bad logic let's Shikamaru save the day(I call it).

Zombies, sure why not.

As for bonds, I hate Sauske, I don't think Bonds is a good idea in the scheme of the actual story either.

And yes, the zombies die in one hit - doesn't take much to kill them

*Sigh*
I just hope all this building and setting up doesn't disappoint when the fights start~

I dislike when it's just a bunch of scenes showing all the good guys get beat up on, standing no chance whatsoever against the bad guys - at least early on like this. I don't like talking ill of series too much, but when it gets like this it's a bit too much even for me.

Why is it that when everyone is fighting outside the village gate, the brain of the village - Shikamaru, is hiding next to the Hokage? and wait for something to happen? And this episode the guardian ninja using lightning seems to be revived by a technique even more advanced than Orochimaru's? the way they talk and fight, I mean Kitane.
