Yes, it's finally here! Airing with an hour long special, the new series of Naruto, entitled Naruto Shippuden, is finally here!

Personally, I fell in love the moment I saw that they opened with the reunion of Team 7. I was thinking we'd have to wait months for that. The opening of the series was amazing, easily OVA quality in animation, and I'm dying for next week's episode.

After surviving the fillers, we have a right to be over-joyed; So Narutards, SCREAM ALOUD! NARUTO SHIPPUDEN IS FINALLY HERE!

(Edit: I just realized how many times I said "It's finally here!" Just shows how long I've been waiting for this. XD )

WHERE NO SITES HAVE IT YET D: D: WHERE ARE YOU NARUTO SHIPPUDEN!!!??!!!!

One day I know they will be gone.

I loved it quite a bit...

a tad different than the manga, but no worries.

When sasuke pulled out kusanagi it looked so cool. =D

I love their older versions, wait till you see the others.

Its on Crunchyroll now

Link Removed - Don't link to a site with licenced material uploaded on it... -Zera

^ thats like saying not to post youtube

^ Fixed your smiley error. Also, Crunchyroll is a site pretty much dedicated to going "ZOMG PROUD TO OVER THE INDUSTRY!" and upload anything and everything they can get their dirty hands on. If I rememebr correctly, didn't they start charging people? Quite surprising they haven't been attacked yet. Youtube is a site for any and all videos, except licenced material, which those are promtly removed. Linking to youtube anime is only acceptable if the show isn't licenced. But if you're going to link to an unlicenced anime, why choose youtube? The quality sucks. D= -Zera

Oh. if you you put it that way.^

Well, now that Shippuden's been out for a while.. It's not as great as I thought it would be. They're using 1-2 chapters of the manga per episode.. which makes things move really slow.

Hopefully the pace will pick up soon, because as of now Shippuden's painfully boring to watch.

It's not that using 1-2 chapter per episode is making it slow, hell One Piece and other shows do that and the pacing is fine. It's the fact they make half the episode filler. ¬___¬

Well, since i havent read the manga, i feel like some old lady anxiously waiting to see the next plot device in a soap opera

I'll watch it when I finish the first series. By the way, Crunchyroll is taking every single licensed anime off nowadays.

Thanks Mord for the amazing sig.

Shippuden ep 6 and 7 are my favorites so far. It took them so long to be relased, since 4 and 5 o.O

Having read the manga already kinda ruins it, but it's still awesome nonetheless

Episode 16 comes out tomorrow!

Last week's episode, episode 15, has to be one of my favorites so far. They really over-exaggerated the Oodama Rasengan.. But they still did the scene well. The Itachi/Kisame fights/Oodama Rasengan was really the first thing in the series I was looking forward to.

There's just one thing about the Oodama Rasengan scene that erked me, and that's that the Oodama Rasengan should have been red.



And there's no arguing with the fact that the Katon techniques looked better in this episode than they ever have.



Manga Spoiler - Don't open if you're strictly anime and don't want to hear about manga material.

[spoil]I'd say we'll be seeing the Chiyo+Sakura vs Sasori fight within the next 2-3 episodes. I just hope they don't make it last longer than, say, two episodes.. The Gaara vs Deidara fight was stretched out way too long, so I hope they don't butcher Chiyo+Sakura vs Sasori like they did Gaara vs Deidara. [/spoil]
