My siblings and I were huge Naruto fans back when it first aired, but we were bored out of our minds with this fight even then. Spent the rest of the night making fun of it.

Watching it again after all these years...yeah, nothing's changed.

Gaara must be seriously fighting the urge to just kill them both and get it over with...assuming he's still awake.

 

[Man God]

ric flair noise.

 

[Shard]

lol I think some of you guys forgot why she cut her hair in this match.

I have already forgotten.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Double suicide

 

[Schadenfreude]

Plot twist no jutsu, bitch.

 

[grandjedi6]

lol I think some of you guys forgot why she cut her hair in this match.

No, we remember.

It's still stupid. Her and Ino's entire backstory is stupid. And quickly forgotten.

 

[everyday math]

What a twist!

 

[Amikami]

I forgot Ino could even do this.

 

[BatDan]

"You've activated my trap card!"

 

[789shadow]

WHY DIDN'T YOU DODGE

 

[ThatObviousUser]

 

[Doctor Decimate]

doesn't she have like knives?

 

[Shard]

This dialog can, nay, DEMANDS to be taken out of context.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

I have already forgotten.

Yeah I did too. .-.

 

[Rewrite]

hair chakra trap no jutsu!

 

[Man God]

saying your move then not doing it is a classic.

 

[Schadenfreude]

So in this case, cutting her hair actually did something. Why isn't Ino the protagonist?

 

[Raxus]

The one time pulling a bitches weave is a legitimate strategy.

 

[BassForever]

Sakura just throw something at her

 

[B-Dubs]

Oh look it was a trap *yawn*

 

[Amikami]

It would be funnier if she took over her body and made her hit herself.

 

[everyday math]

Can't she like cut the hair?

If Ino and Sakura managed to bore Gaara asleep, this arc would end up having a very different outcome...

 

[mightynine]

Stylin' and profilin' jutsu!

 

[ReiGun]

It's so sad. It's all set up really well, but dear god it's execution is a joke.

Gives her fantastic teachers and an interesting special talent in chakra control on top of some decent character moments, and does fuck all with any of it. And all because she's a girl.

Damn you, Kishi.

 

[Shard]

So this accomplished what exactly?

 

[Man God]

I am the World Martial Arts Champion!

 

[CrazyTank940]

lol

So this accomplished what exactly?

Granting us with a possible end to a boring ass fight, hopefully

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

I bet Ino always wanted to be in Sakura. Date sexual tension

 

[BassForever]

Does any character have more wasted potential then Sakura?

 

[Raxus]

WHY DIDN'T YOU DODGE

Its a basic subroutine!

 

[lazybones18]

Excuse me while I roll my eyes to the back of my head in excruciating pain

 

[Schadenfreude]

At least there hasn't been a flashback.

 

[B-Dubs]

Does any character have more wasted potential then Sakura?

Every other female in her age group in this show.

 

[789shadow]

Does any character have more wasted potential then Sakura?

Every single character not named Naruto or Sasuke?

 

[Man God]

It would be funnier if she took over her body and made her hit herself.

Keep that in the back of your mind for a few more weeks...

 

[BatDan]

Does any character have more wasted potential then Sakura?

*takes out list of Bleach characters* Should I start at the top?

 

[LycanXIII]

I'm glad Adult Swim has Toonami, because nothing else they show interests me.

 

[Raxus]

At least there hasn't been a flashback.

You jinxed us...

 

[Shard]

Everybody in Sword Art Online.

 

[everyday math]

TenTen.
Wait....who?

 

[SDBurton]

One of the first OTPs I supported when I began Naruto waaaay back.

 

[B-Dubs]

Every single character not named Naruto or Sasuke?

Even Naruto doesn't capitalize on the potential he has from a story perspective.

 

[Schadenfreude]

It would be funnier if she took over her body and made her hit herself.

Don't you remember from the fight with the Sound ninja? Ino also suffers any injuries that the host body gets.

 

[Man God]

TenTen.

Twenty owns in Rock Lee.

 

[BassForever]

*takes out list of Bleach characters* Should I start at the top?

I said "any character" not "any series" Bleach's problem comes from having too many characters that get too many scenes

 

[Seda]

TenTen.
Wait....who?

TenTen never had potential in the first place.

 

[ckohler]

So, if Ino possesses Sakura and pretends to be Sakura and then says she's forfeited the match... Wouldn't everyone know it was really her and it wouldn't count because she told everyone she was going to do that aloud and everyone already knows?

Right? I'm confused.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

TenTen.
Wait....who?

TenTen had potential? Hahaha.

 

[ReiGun]

Shikamaru is the only side character that reaches his potential. The only one.
