Haha, tell me about it. I've decided to watch shounen anime sparingly. See, some got into Naruto, some got into Bleach, some One Piece, some all three or combinations of them. The only reason I (or probably 85% of people) are still watching shounen anime like Naruto are because they got into them when they were 12 (as is my case) and have been following them for years now. It's like loyalty and nostalgia. When shounen anime first come out, they are usually pretty awesome. I've watched some of Fairy Tail. It's pretty cool, people love it. Naruto captivated audiences when it first hit the TV/Internet as well. It was truly amazing to my 12-year-old self. But what inevitably happens, and I'm sure will unfortunately happen to Fairy Tail as well, is they eventually just get terrible, to be honest. Whether it's fillers, flashbacks, continuity errors, over-poweredness, repetition, etc. Shounen anime will have any of the aforementioned problems, and they usually become terrible to anyone who's not a die-hard fan. By the time they get out of the terrible and into the awesome (which Naruto has done in the manga and is on the brink in the anime), nobody else will watch them because 1. You have to have kept up with the series to know anything that's going on, and 2. They've heard so much about it and seen the terrible already that they don't want to have anything to do with it. So this is the issue with the long, tiring Shounen genre. /rant

So why not just skip the filler? problem mostly solved. Anyway, the Hinata episode during the Naruto/Pain fight was A+ anime. I don't care how old you are. That was a masterpiece episode. Naruto can still bring it every now and then.

Dude are you kidding? Filler is half the experience of a Shounen anime. I'm not saying I don't like Naruto, I'm saying it's far from being great, because it's a shounen. My rant was on shounen in general, not just Naruto. And yes, I agree, except for the bullshit with the 6 Tails mode and the terrible animation. Naruto brings it a lot, and I don't know if you read the manga, but if you do you know that it's about to bring it like a boss in the anime. What's to come is awesomeness, plain and simple.

I liked the art and animation style of this episode, Wish they kept this style more often.
That and TenTen :)

Aw, FUCKING TELL ME ABOUT IT. Dammit, I always forget that exists (probably because I repress all memories of it) until it comes up in the show again. They fucked up the Pein fight so badly, I wasn't sure if I should rage, laugh, or cry, but I did all three eventually, and maybe even at the same time. I hope they don't ever do that again. The animation is okay as long as they don't do shit like this:
Seriously... what the hell? Did they all get wasted the night before and then go "OH SHIT GUISE!! WE HAVE TO DRAW THAT NARUTO EPISODE ASDLFKJASD;FASD;ASD LOL"

I think they did that animation style to give the viewer a more detailed account of exactly how fast the two actually were, not because of poor animation quality. The more you know.
