[Ray Down]

God the animation kinda sucks here.

 

[Man God]

Team Ten Ten?!? Must watch.

 

[RagnarokX]

Kishi: "Shit, I still don't know where I'm taking this... better stall with flashbacks."

 

[ckohler]

A wild Habercorn appears!

 

[Crocodile]

Aren't Nagato and his parents obviously not ninjas? Wouldn't running been the better course than fighting?

Oh ok the show acknowledges that

 

[Hellwarden]

I feel like this scene is supposed to be really, really dynamic, but it lacks the vision to make it work.

 

[Morlas]

oh yeah he felt pain got bs eye powers

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

What...?

D... Do you just raid random houses and kill the people inside them when they're clearly not dressed to fight in a war like ninja on a regular basis or something...?

 

[Seda]

I mean, we already knew Nagato and Co.'s families were killed in the wars, I'm not sure seeing it specified now really offers much to the viewer..

 

[Schadenfreude]

tfw those two random peasants and their child are part of a super unique blooodline that stretches back to the beginnings of the ninja world. Also, today i learned the Leaf Village Shinobi are as well trained as the NYPD.

 

[Man God]

I mean, we already knew Nagato and Co.'s families were killed in the wars, I'm not sure seeing it specified now really offers much to the viewer..

Naruto specifically doesn't know.

 

[Hellwarden]

Boy for two people being stabbed to death, not much blood in that scene.

 

[Ray Down]

.

 

[Morlas]

and then i met this orange haired asshole and some cute blue haired chick

 

[B-Dubs]

.

 

[Man God]

oh yeah he felt pein got bs eye powers

.

 

[aspiegamer]

The backstory is killed parents? That's it? Seriously? Talk about disproportionate retaliation.

 

[Seda]

I'm going to edit out poorly marked spoilers

 

[SparksterMeta0]

So looks like we have 4 episodes of canon, then we transition into a 21 episode filler arc.

ToonamiGAF's greatest pain is Filler Hell!

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Don't hug a dog. That's too manipulative.

 

[RagnarokX]

"Oh, I thought you were Edward Elric. Please leave."

 

[Crocodile]

What...?

D... Do you just raid random houses and kill the people inside them when they're clearly not dressed to fight in a war like ninja on a regular basis or something...?

Yeah that felt pretty contrived TBH

Even the actions of the parents escalated the situation

 

[Man God]

The third Hokage is a dick, he had tons of bread.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

So looks like we have 4 episodes of canon, then we transition into a 21 episode filler arc.

And people question why I say there's a high chance they drop Shippuden after the Pain Arc.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Too bad he wouldn't become the Batman of this Ninja World.

 

[Morlas]

I mean i know this sucks and everything, but i seen way worse in one piece and those characters didn't try to go on megalomaniacal missions to 'fix' the world

 

[Moaradin]

And people question why I say there's a high chance they drop Shippuden after the Pain Arc.

I don't think Toonami cares much about what is canon and what isn't.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Ah. That's cute.

He literally named the dog Chibi.

 

[Ray Down]

I'm trying to remember if Konan paper stuff is jutsu or something special.

 

[Seda]

I feel like the bread that homeless kids get their hands on should be a little more filthy

 

[B-Dubs]

I don't think Toonami cares much about what is canon and what isn't.

I hope they do and spare us the pain.

 

[Man God]

Yahiko looks just like that team Sauce guy.

 

[RampagingSoul]

I hope they do and spare us the pain.

They won't.

 

[Ray Down]

Watch they just skip to the other canon arcs, or the big final arc.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Yeah that felt pretty contrived TBH

Even the actions of the parents escalated the situation

Yeah. Instead of running up and grabbing the dude with the knife by the arm, maybe try and explain yourselves first. Take action when your pursuers do so as not to escalate it yourself by mistake.

If they had guns it'd be harder to do that but... they didn't so...

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Nagato: Sure, but my parents died from thieves. Just sayin'.

 

[Xe4]

I hope they do and spare us the pain.

Life is pain. The filler arcs drive that home more than even this one.

 

[Seda]

Did one of them actually just say "Score!"

 

[YoodiHoshi]

Man, I wish I looked exactly like I do now when I was younger, just smaller

 

[RampagingSoul]

Did one of them actually just say "Score!"

I'm pretty sure one of them did.

 

[Man God]

And people question why I say there's a high chance they drop Shippuden after the Pein Arc.

ToonamiGAF's greatest pein is Filler Hell!

I hope they do and spare us the pein.

Life is pein. The filler arcs drive that home more than even this one.

[Morlas]

 

[Hellwarden]

You can chuck bodies off cliffs in this stealth game.

That's how you know it's a good stealth game.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

I hope they do and spare us the pain.

KNOW PAIN.

 

[RampagingSoul]

I can feel his pain in every frame of animation in that gif.

 

[Ray Down]

this episode is painful.

 

[Morlas]

this episode is peinful.

 

[Hellwarden]

Maybe I was a weird kid, but uhh, I never talked to my friends about my dreams growing up...

 

[Ray Down]

I gonna rule this world with an iron fist.

 

[Man God]

I blame Orochimaru.
