Naruto Shippuden 270
Is this filler?
Oh boy. I hope this doesn't last long. Garaa was about to throw down with that uber team soon it looked like :^(Yes.
Its just advertising for the movie, to be honest :/

I do want to see this movie though. It looks like one big gif.
That makes me feel better about the movie, oddly enough lolWell the next episode is canon.
Indeed, great episode despite the subpar animation. About time!Did you guys see today's episode? God damn that last part was so fucking awesome!
Really? I thought the animation was awesome. Same with the previous episode. The one that had sub par or horrible animation was the samurai one.Indeed, great episode despite the subpar animation. About time!
The barrier scene was nice, but everything before that was really bad. Freeze-frame some shots of Naruto and look at how off-model he is. It's really distracting, and I usually ignore that sort of stuff.Really? I thought the animation was awesome. Same with the previous episode.

Agreed. The entire war arc is terrible and filled with wasted opportunities. It cheapens just about every character death on the show and just introduces dozens of characters we're supposed to instantly care about. It's actually being handled a bit better on the show in my opinion, but it was never good to begin with.This whole arc's rubbing me the wrong way. The bad art and animation, we're back at the first couple seasons of Shippuuden at times in that regard; ugly and choppy at best. The storytelling style and amount of time being focused on each one of the legends from the past is just not right, either.
It feels rushed. "Oh, remember that legendary dude with the salamander that we kept hinting about? Here's his life story, all his history with the character we've brought on to fight him, and now he's defeated. Next up..."
It's so hollow, like an excuse to fill in the gaps with the backstory and drag out the series some more with the least amount of effort or consideration possible.
Yep. These big, epic characters come back which not only negates their initial impact, it cheapens it by having them last 5 minutes. I hope the manga refocuses greatly after this arc, but I know it won't.I hate how old powerful characters/villains now suddenly feel so weak during the war. It really reminds me of that episode (or movie?) in Dragon Ball Z where Freezer, Cell, etc. come back from hell and they're absolutely terrible, getting beat in 5 seconds. It taints their character IMO.
I don't recall it in the manga either. It felt like (slight manga spoiler)Ep 276
I must have ran through the associated chapter in the manga, or something, because I totally didnt remember none of this happening...well apart from a flashback much later in the story referencing this episodes key momentwhat Shikamaru and Darui indicated. Good tense episode and Kabuto.the gedo statue getting the eight tails piece and some nine tails chakra from that container
Cant wait for next weeks episode, previewNaruto Sasuke flashbacks.
I can't believe we're going to get a "Mom's are tough!" segment in Naruto
Anything with Hinata is good.
Which chapter in the manga is where the anime is currently at? I'm slightly tempted to start reading the manga.

Ch 537 was animated this week.
Major manga spoilers:
Fake Madara/Tobi = Obito. People called this shit like, the second he was revealed 6 years ago.
I'm not even surprised, I just want the series to end now.
Are you disappointed?Major manga spoilers:

I always get chills when Naruto is talking to kyuubi.Ep 277
This is so far, probably one of my favorite shippuden episodes for the arc. The Naruto and Kyuubi thing is always good to see and just the whole flashbacks with Sasuke (Naruto so lucky to get to unison sign with him) and etc were good to see, as well as the inner dialogue. Kyuubi starting to change, I like it.
