NARUTO COME BACK...

I'll Download it...

Keep Your Movie...

I download this video first, then comment. I'am Happy

hmm im not so excited about this episode. Hopefully, more action would be in the next episode. Alot of cliffhangers like: What's Shikamaru's plan? What happened to Kakashi's arm? Looks like Naruto won't be seen much for a couple of episodes. lol

AMAZINGLY ANIMATED EPISODE!!

This episode was GOLD The same animation team will be doing ep 85 i hear

OMG NEXT episode its gonna be back to crappy animation

I wish all naruto animation was like this ep

It felt like a movie

i agree that the animation was much better this episode and it added to the drama of this episode....not much action but i still liked it and it seems that shikamaru might be a wind type after all based on his ability to chakra up the knife(i think it was discussed last week what his type was)....the one thing i found funny was when he was walking around the town and he randomly stopped to talk to the shop owner and as they paned out to a wide view all you could see of her face was a grey circle i assume was a hanging pan...i thought it was just funny....next episode looks cool, i cannot wait to see what happened to kakashi's arm and if naruto has mastered his new move!

okay wtf is going here?? this episode was all about Shikamaru, dude whats so special about this guy, all because he can come up with a few strageties they think he's good. He ******* sucks at taijustu and ninjustu, whats the whole point of coming up with some good strageties if you don't have the power or skills to back that **** up. Neji will kick Shikamaru a** and Neji is more of a genius, his taijustu and ninjustu is off the charts.

Alright the funnies joke of the month was when Asuma said Shikamaru would make a good Hokage that was hilarious, after letting Asuma die. But he's dumber then I thought if he thinks he can go up against Akatsuki taking with him the two weakest ninja's of Konoha, Ino and Choji. Dude talk about stupid.

I know Shikamaru wants revenge but at least take someone who can dominate and do major damage like Neji or Rock lee or Kiba, but not Ino or Choji. I already know Gaykashi will save them because if it wasn't for his Sharingan he would be as useless as Ino.

And why do you guys care so much about the animation everything has been good so far, I can careless about the animation, you guys are expecting some kind of ultra graphic 3D high tech advance animation or what??? I don't get it. You guys complain about **** that don't matter.

I agree about the animation. It was really good! And yes f***ed up that the animation is crap next week. But I think we are going to see some good action in the next couple of episodes.

i agree that there is alot about shikamaru going on but is it so bad to have other angles going on besides just naruto, i also agree that neji is a better fighter than him also, but to be able to think 200 moves ahead and almost basically plan out how things are going to go, as far as skills go that is probaly more important than power at times, and obviously he knew that ino and choji were going to go with him after all and he planned for every possible likely result in a battle.
as for the animation it doesn't really matter to me but i noticed a difference especially in this episode and you'd be surprised at how different watching an episode is based on different animations...

K first of all relax.

Theyre not gonna put frigging NEJI in a friggin arc based on team 10

The ep was called team 10 not friggin Neji, I dunt know why ur so suprised...

Your lil Neji won't be making any main appearances til ever. The only hope of seeing a lot of him is in anotehr filler arc.

And Friggin Animation DOES matter, Remember the FRIGGIN CLONE FIGHTS? Yeh The animation played A BIG part in SHIPPUUDEN RATINGS. ANd just cuz WE care about Animation doesn't mean it doesn't MATTER...

k thnx bai

wow you seem to hate shikamaru so much. since i like him so much, i definitely have to respond. haha.

For your info shikamaru probably thought about plenty of strategies for them,kakashi joining in was just an extra advantage. although i think yeah it was a stupid repeat of 3 chunnins fighting 2 akatsuki, just for the sake of revenge. But, if you want to compare, why would shikamaru not make a good hokage just because asuma died? its not like he sent asuma, tsunade did.

seriously, watch the part where he takes revenge, he can do a 1v1 even though he doesnt use taijutsu/ninjutsu/genjutsu. just his own skill. and improvisations. the chakra knife. whatever stuff. although i dont think you will change your opinion, you seem to hate that guy too much. neji on the other hand,which you love, apparently doesnt get kishi's love, cos he doesnt appear for a very loooong time.

A lame ep just as the last - no action, Shikamaru in center stage no point of it all!

To ad my small portion to the animation blabber - Choji was drawn somhow strange when Shikamru found him (just to me or is it for real?)

I hope that the next ep will be action packed, as they will be going after akatsuki withouth any real chances for succes.

P.S. Naruto will own both Shikamaru and Neji! Just give him time!!!

First of all I never seen Shikamaru in a hand to hand combat he always runs away so I'm assuming he sucks at it really bad. And the the only ninjustu I've seen him do is that shadow bind crap.

Second I think any ninja would have joined Shikamaru in the quest to go after Akatsuki because everyone loved Asuma.

Third picking fat a** Choji and useless Ino who don't do nothing its just lame, I thought Shikamaru was smarter then that he definitely has a death wish, Dude I don't care how good you are at figuring out strageties you just can't win with the weakest ninja's in Konoha.

Shikamaru would definitely suck as Hokage because it was up to Shikamaru to keep his team alive it was up to him to use every resource he had to win that battle against Akatsuki that was Shikamaru special gift or ability to figure all that **** out. Not only that he can't fight for crap and all he has is shadow bind so he's pretty much useless like Ino.

My favorite is Rock lee but I like Neji because he doesn't have a weakness, his taijustu is excellent knowing that he can hit every chakra point on your body with pin point accuracy, he has the spinning sphere chakra that defelects and blocks everything, and genjustu won't work on him because he will see right through it with his byakugan and I can keep going on and on but the best part is that he's on the same team as Rock lee is in so that team is pretty much the best team there is. Team Gai for the WIN!!!

silver you obviously missed the whole concept of teams/squads that has been in place almost since the beginning......ino and choji were in asuma's team with shikamaru so even though he probaly doesn't want to bring them in this situation, you don't think he isn't gonna say no based on the situation and the amount of time the 4 of them spent together in training and missions...... second you don't think shikamaru is smart enough to know they would come and has planned it out so that they can be useful??

Shikas PRO and Shika isnt gonna use Chouji and Ino as a useless Sacrifice. They both play a part later on. and they have KAKASHI ITS FRIGGIN KAKASHI.
WHY have Neji when you have KAKASHI Shika is going to OWN later on, but im not allowed to spoil so Just keep watching
