Naruto ~ Shippuden: Episodes 22 & 23

Rating: 6/10 & 7/10

Impressions:

Man, how long has this fight been going for? And it only gets interesting at the end of episode 23…not to mention Kakashi and Naruto are STILL chasing Deidara, while Gai’s team are STILL meaninglessly fighting their copies. Sasori’s past was well and truly dragged out, making the episode such a bore. I think I’m just going to accept that the pacing is not going to change. These two episodes covers an amazingly low number of chapters…or more specifically, two and a half. What happened to the 3-4 chapters per episode that Naruto once followed? Ah well. Starting from the next episode, I will have completely accepted this horrendous pacing.

    Dunno about those episodes(becuase I didn’t watch them), but episode 26 was good. probably the best episode since Shippuden started. not saying much I know but hey, that’s an improvement. so catch up and tell us what you think about episode 26.

    I aggree with arcanes and I also think you are sooo underrating shippuden. Its currently way better than bleach for sure. Ok, it can be a little slow at times. I find it atmospheric, enjoying it.

    Well you could look it in the other way many people who havn’t read the manga find naruto shippuuden good and others who have read it find the pace extremely slow…..

    do shut up. Naruto anime is so fucking slow it is not even watchable. It RUINED the Manga. They only people who love the anime are 12 year olds, pre-elementary kids or people with below average IQ.

    or people like you.

    your comparison to Bleach was stupid too. seems to me you don’t even read the Manga so next time you give your pathetic idea about comparing the two animes, read the goddamn Manga to see what the hell is going on in each one and THEN come and write about which one is better.

    You’re annoying

    he was just talking about the anime, not the manga. its also prefer the dragged out naruto than bleach fillers. my sister hasnt read the manga and still enjoys naruto even though shje thinks its too slow

    and i have read the two mangas, they are awesome, but naruto is better in the last chapters than bleach in my opinion

    dont get so angry just because of a comment..
