[Anime] Naruto

Yeah, I thought the current filler arc is decent, with the battles being less mindless than just throwing in characters and then have Naruto pull a Rasengan. Regardless, I do wish they would finish up the fillers, but as of right now, there's at least one or two more eps of fillers just for finishing up this arc.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That really sucks... I was hoping that they'll finish up the fillers with the current arc, since they're throwing all the available characters out there, making it seem like they'll finish off the fillers with a bang.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, that hand wave thing was really really ugly, and I had a wtf moment when I saw that. I like how the ep intro set it up with awsome art/animation, then the actual ep end up with crap like this.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I watch the anime and also read the manga, and I have not seen what the hell has he learned in the past 3 years. He still does the same shit: multiple replicas and his crappy Rasengan ball.

Spoiler:

The only new thing he has done is release the fox demon to the 4-tails level, but I don't think that can be considered as a real improvement.

So really, what is so cool about him??

Well, I think he was talking about Naruto the series instead of the character. I don't believe most of the Naruto fans like Naruto for Naruto character, but more like the variety of other characters that populate the series.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I wish it would go back to the way the old episodes were -at least 2 chapters in an episode. The dragging of each episode is so bad. They're trying to make it suspenseful but it's not fooling anyone. It just makes the show anti-climatic and suck.

This makes me sad Shippuuden has been a let down so far. I can't say there has been one ep that has been remotely exciting. Even the Deidra/Gaara fight that should have been good wasn't that good. And ep 20 was just boring.... I don't want to spend half the episode watching granny and Sakura dance around dodging needles, and then doing more in slow-mo. This bi-weekly thing isn't so good either, I hope that's not their regular schedule now, since 19 and 20 came out 2 week after their previous eps.

How ya doing, buddy?
