Courtini 공주 or 姫 Posts: 80 Group: Member Member #16,487 Joined: January 2, 2009	Well...Orochimaru is one of my favorite villains and I am sad to see he is gone Spoiler: click to toggle (well just until later, check out the manga. He will be back and then gone permanently). To be honest, I'm not a big Sasuke fan so these next few epis are gonna be boring to me. I think it's gettin pretty close to Jiraiya to kick the bucket (now that will be sad). Edited by Sardaukar, Jun 18 2009, 05:26 PM.

Sadly I couldn't enjoy the Akatsuki as much as I wanted because Sasuke overshadowed them. Aside from the leader's face being revealed too early I had no complaints. That last scene showing how everyone realised something's up had got to be the most epic part of it. Next week seems to be more half filler/half cannon. Edited by Reobeem, Jun 18 2009, 06:02 PM.

Out getting lost on the road of life Posts: 1,480 Group: Member Member #8,166 Joined: May 22, 2007	I loved this episode very much. 9/10 Spoiler: click to toggle This episode reminded me of how much I missed Orochimaru, that man was a true villain. The flashbacks were great especially which, lead him down the path he chose. My favorite part of the episode was when Sasuke let Kabuto see the "transference ritual."

The 4th's Legacy Posts: 140 Group: Member Member #12,981 Joined: April 24, 2008	I thought this was an EXCELLENT episode. I really enjoyed Orcho's backstory. I've always said that I never believed it when people say that Kishi has nothing to do with the anime. There is NO WAY they did all this without brainstorming/consulting with Kishi. I sometimes wonder if Kishi doesn't expand on stuff knowing at some point it can and will be picked up in the anime

I can't wait for the high quality hard-sub to come out so I can do my full review! 100/10 Actually 10/10 Sasuke takes 90 points away because of sharin-hax. But it's still IMO up there with the best shippuden episode/s so far.

GIVE IT BACK Posts: 217 Group: Member Member #16,438 Joined: December 31, 2008	Nice nice nice pretty good episode loved the way it started all those memory from orochimaru as if his life was flashing before his eyes. This is the first Canon episode with fillers i can say i enjoy. It seemed to me like with every flash back the anime was on a up and down scale. Not the best episode seen in my opinion but it was nice. 9/10

Ninja Academy Student Posts: 2 Group: Member Member #9,653 Joined: August 28, 2007	7/10 It was a good episode in general, if we stick to the plot, very interesting to see a little more of orochimaru's background, but i think that the timing could be a little better in some parts. But what i really don't understand it's why the animation has to be HIDEOUS, if this is one of the important parts of the manga and after 4 months of fillers. What a SHAME!!!! The music choosing and timing also a crap. At least this is something expected, it's been very bad for almost all 2nd part of the manga.

I've got my eye on you, Kishimoto.... Posts: 614 Group: Member Member #14,273 Joined: July 18, 2008	10/10 from me. That was some of the best "filler" yet. The fights were pretty bad but the retrospective elaboration of Orochimaru's character really stole the show. Nice to see the guy was human before becoming a monster. It was handled extremely well in my opinion. Sharingan FTEW.

Genin Posts: 433 Group: Member Member #8,577 Joined: June 23, 2007	Much much better than last week's episode, even if the animation still wasn't up to par. Aside from directing problems and a few tidbits... Spoiler: click to toggle I was expecting Orochimaru's demise to be a bit more intense. At least a louder sound effect when the snake things came would have been better. Also why was the "Akatsuki Leader's" face fully revealed for the non manga readers? I feel that things are looking up from here. Edited by Akatstewie, Jun 19 2009, 01:51 AM.

It would be easier if you don't resist, And less dangerous. Posts: 51 Group: Member Member #14,021 Joined: July 3, 2008	The episodes was very good. the flashbacks was on point. Good to see why Orochimaru did what he did. P.S. I'm I the only one the likes the opening theme song? "SHA LA LA"

Jounin Posts: 1,202 Group: Member Member #11,281 Joined: December 22, 2007	Looks like it. I think it's a bland and boring piece of music and do we really need Sasuke in a homo-erotic pose (in both the opening and the ending themes)? I can't wait for it to change.

Jounin Posts: 3,793 Group: Global Moderators Member #6,640 Joined: February 12, 2007	I actually don't mind the opening, it's the ending I really dislike despite it seemingly being popular with the fanbase. I'd prefer something more along the lines of the crazy fun themes (like Bacchikoi, for example) which really manage to stand out in these huge piles of bleak, dull songs with the constant slew of Naruto characters in J-Pop poses or something, and the current ED really kind of follows suit in a cliche and uninteresting way. Ikimono-Gakari's (they do the current OP for those who don't know) songs, while not necessarily stand-offish, I know, are at least decent and pretty catchy in my opinion.

Jounin Posts: 1,202 Group: Member Member #11,281 Joined: December 22, 2007	Well I personally dislike many of the endings to be honest. There are only a few that stand out.

Jounin Posts: 2,740 Group: Member Member #17,100 Joined: March 1, 2009	You're not alone, Shadow King. I also like the song. I think it's great. Could be because I like Ikimono-Gakari as a band, but I think it's pretty catchy. :D

Genin Posts: 363 Group: Site Contributor Member #16,752 Joined: January 27, 2009	I would like to point out that Taka Fansubs did this Episode, aside with Churchyroll, they did a really good job. Narutofan.com said that "They are a more traditional replacement for Dattebayo that you may have heard of in the past" Also, (Since I dont know much about Taka) Taka Fansubs are Free Fansubs. yea, take that Viz! I've yet to see any hard subbing in their Fansubs of this Episode. Maybe there was nothing explicit to translate, who knows? Edited by Pervy Sennin, Jun 19 2009, 07:13 PM.

Jounin Posts: 2,740 Group: Member Member #17,100 Joined: March 1, 2009	And yet, I like the Viz subs far better than loathing fansubs. Imagine that. :P At any rate, my review is ready. First off, I thought this was a great episode. As for my score........guess. :P I loved how they fleshed out Orochimaru's character. Showing how he went down the path he did was very amazing on Pierrot's part. The filler scene with Anko was a very welcome addition. The manga didn't show much of her and she has a connection with Orochimaru too. The ending scene with the ominous feel to it got me pumped up. Mostly because it's right. Crazy things are on the horizon. :o If there's one thing about the episode I had to complain about, it was the sudden revelation of the Akatsuki Leader's face with no real build-up to it. It just felt out of nowhere. But all in all, I really liked the episode and now it's time for the recruitment of the guy in the water tank.

Why So Serious? Posts: 622 Group: Member Member #10,838 Joined: November 9, 2007	I quite enjoyed the episode. I like the fact they showed a softer side to Orochimaru when he was younger (showing concern for Tsunades dead loved ones - or the fact the human condition is so weak). Good to see a young Anko (and a cameo of current day Anko). Spoiler: click to toggle Also noticed the brief cameo of Pain. I don't mind filler when it adds to the story like this.
