[Anime] Naruto

They should really just take a break between seasons, that'd let them make better fillers (because you know they would in spite of the pause). It's a quantity vs quality issue. If FOX released shows weekly in stead of in seasons (with a 3-9 month pause), I'm sure most of the episodes would suffer for quality.
Is the appeal of almost a full 52 episodes a year worth the sharp decline in quality?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Chapter 306's final pages had me thinking of this...

Spoiler:

Anyhow, I'm glad - I can't wait for some progress for the plot.

FELIPE NO

haha, outta 10 pple i knw who watchs naruto, 9 and a half of them gave up
on the anime and switched to the manga! Those fillers are really killin its fans!

Most amazing jew boots

Concerning chapter 306..

Spoiler:

Is it just me, or is Sasuke wearing the same outfit that Kimimaro wore? Also, I don't know about others, but throughout the series, I've just really grown tired of Sasuke. I thought the whole 'only showing his shadowed face and eyes' thing was kinda dumb. I guess I really just like Naruto over-all because I can relate to him more easily. Also, in a suprising turn, I actually started to like Sai for a moment.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Jpn. 06/07/06 Episode 188: "Mystery, The Targeted Peddler"

Oh, boy. Another month worth of fillers. I wonder how long my patience will last..

Most amazing jew boots

You said a page ago that you like most of the Naruto fillers and now you are wondering how long your patience will last? ¬_¬

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

Well, the studio(or..whatever) did promise the fillers will end by spring. Why knows, it may be good....I did say I liked most of the fillers, though, >_>.

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

I haven't been following the anime, so I can't tell if this is real but...

Spoiler:

What the fuck's with this?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Spoiler:

Obviously it's fake. I think it might be Kakashi's dad with the scar and sharingan 'shopped on. I'm pretty sure they showed him in the anime :/

As for 306, the chapter was dumb. Why did it take Sakura/Naruto 5 pages to turn their face and say "...Sasuke....". Sasuke looks exactly the same except for his outfit.

This is a photoshop. I can tell by the pixels.

It would be a big surprise if his face did turn out to be like that.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Ahh.. there was that one filler episode where Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura were trying to figure out what his face looked like.

Ehh.. If his mouth does look like that then we all have waited a long time for nothing ;p.

Spoiler:

It's called filler manga style :P. Seriously, it's staling more and more meh.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Everybody had a problem with the five pages of silence in 306. I can see why it would irritate some, but come on. It was simply to build up the drama. My only real complaint is that it took six chapters for anything remotely interesting to occur.

How ya doing, buddy?

If the art was better, I wouldn't mind. But it has been decreasing for a long time now. The characters now have copy and paste faces.

Kakashi's dad? I am pretty sure that ALL Naruto fans already knows this... that Kakashi's Sharingan is not from the lineage. It was a gife from his friend before he passed away. WAIT... I think I am WRONG! >_<

Spoiler:

Chap 307.

As usual, no fighting for awhile. Just trash talk and showing off some skills they learned. I am guessing Naruto still got some stuff under his sleaves since he wasn't THAT suprised by the speed of Sasuke. I hope Naruto busts Sasuke's ass with some new flashy moves.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Manga Chapter 307

Spoiler:

Naruto's "calm" posture is probably just a mix of frustration and confidence in his ability. He was probably able to keep up with Sasuke's speed, even though the boy seems to be at a level equal to or beyond Yamato's (or hell, Kakashi's, but that's just an extra liberty I'm taking with speculating).

As much as I'd like to see a fight take place, Naruto only has a little bit of chakra left. I see Orochimaru interrupting this little chat soon.

Did you miss the "'shopped on"? =/

307:

okay chapter I guess. where the hell is oro. you know someone is going to come in 1 second before Sasuke chops naruto's head off and is gonna save the day.

FELIPE NO

Spoiler:

agreed. But I also want Itachi to show up since Sasuke still seems fixated with him and pictures him every second. That was a nice move he pulled on Naruto though. Awesome that he has a sword too. Would be badass if it was the Kusanagi Sword.

IMHO , i want Sai and Sasuke to go at it.

EDIT : Btw guys, did you all notice that he still represents the Uchiha Clan? He still has the symbol in the back of his top gi. Kurado i know you did =/.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

307

Spoiler:

I don't know why, but I've never really liked Sasuke. Then he goes all emo and decides to join Orochimaru. I'm hoping this fight goes down. I think Naruto might be able to catch Sasuke off guard since Sasuke seems so cocky with his abilities right now. It almost made it sound like Sasuke thinks Naruto didn't train at all over the years that passed. I want to see what else Naruto has learned, and it would be even sweeter if he made Sasuke put his foot in his mouth. I still think Sasuke looks like Kimimaro in that outfit. I also think that he's lying about severing bonds. At least, his facial expressions during that whole speech seemed that way. Plus, he's still sporting the Uchiha clan symbol, so there has to be some attachment to what was taken from him/what he left, or he would be rid of it all and focus solely on killing Itachi.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, we haven't seen Sai do much of anything. It's about time for him to fight for real (even if he IS hard to look at). Kishimoto really should've just made him a girl.

Manga Chapter 307

Spoiler:

Yeah, I noticed the Uchiha symbol on his back. It's much smaller than what he used to wear (thank god). For some reason that thing would irritate the hell out of me pre-timeskip.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Today's episode will go down in history as one of the best filler episodes known to man. lol. </sarcasm>

Looking at Shino laughing was just hilarious lol... Thats basically the whole episode.We will be seeing alot of people making gif files out of this. bet you $5 it'll happen ;p.

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

Shino laughing? I'm not going to download an episode just for that. I will, however, take a peek at the gifs that will inevitably come to be. :P

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

Nah man. you gotta see it lol. Its just a laughing episode.

Any spoilers on the next chapter?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Naruto has really gone downhill in my book, a lot of the fans I knew off stopped watching after the zabuza arc. I guess it was the animation quality and story, so then the animation started to dwindle, but now the stories themselves are boring as hell (save a couple of funny moments)

I dunno if I can keep watching this series

How ya doing, buddy?
