Naruto Shippuuden
nazleth:
These episodes are considered an entire arc? LOL.
Its funny how they can lower everyone's standards so much with fillers and long drawn out episodes (in which if you actually thought back over the episode, you would realize nothing actually happened) that viewers are actually being satisfied with the quality of the last couple episodes.

(click to show/hide)Sasori chose to fall into Chiyo's last trap despite seeing through it. He was too miserable to go on and chose death on is own.
--- End quote ---
As I see it is:
(click to show/hide)Sasori lost his parents.. n being hugged by em was prolly what he wanted the most from the bottom of his heart. He saw through the last attack.. but since Chiyo was using his parent-puppets so he.. maybe unwillingly.. but for this time was overtaken by his only strong emotion that he suppressed for ages to became a shinobi without emotions. As till the end we see Sasori as a child who wanted to be with his parents the most.
maxxjulie:
seriously, how could sakura have survived training with tsunade if she didn't hold back at all and attacked her with intent to kill? it makes no sense and is retarded. the hokage couldn't kill a novice ninja? it's one of those things everyone here just accepted even though it makes no sense. don't say tsunade only attacked at 50% of her capability cuz then she's holding back. i know it's anime and it's not going to be realistic. shippuuden is so gay I just had to point it out.

I think you're getting mad at the wrong things. I got the impression that Tsunade was just using most of her strength to attack. Using pure brute strength to train Sakura without using her speed, techniques, strategies, etc is plausible in my opinion. Remember how the focus of the training was dodging (because medical ninja shouldn't get hurt)? It sounds to me like Tsunade was attacking with attacks that would seriously hurt/kill if they connected, in order to help Sakura with her dodging. Its not a perfect explanation, but it is plausible as far as these shows go. Remember, it still just a shounen series. Remember how many times Naruto (and others) have gotten beaten up and seemed destined to lose, only to have some revelation about friends/family/etc and then have a miraculous victory. There will always be that type of thing in Naruto. It's that type of anime. You just have to take it with a grain of salt (or bottle of vodka).
That said, you should be mad at how the writers and animators are sitting around laughing at all the people who keep watching. They can put in a fifth of the effort on an episode compared to the average anime, and it is STILL the most popular anime running right now.
Steve Basnof:
Attacking with killing intent means that they're using their full strength in each attack. But a master can be using their full strength doing basic moves.
There are plenty of times in many different mangas and animes where a superior trains their underling and uses "killing intent" or doesn't hold back their strength. It doesn't mean the superiors are using everything they've got against the underling, it just means that the few moves they do end up using on the underling are full on.
Also a quick question
A few times during the whole Sasori fight, Sakura said something that was translated into "Hell yeah!" by DB when she was about to punch something ridiculous. I couldn't really hear the phrase clearly so I was wondering if anyone know what it was she actually said.
It sounded sort of like "O-Nara!" to me but that definitely doesn't mean anything close to "Hell yeah!" >.<
