That was awesome. I liked the bits with Lee and Chouji. I don't want Sakura to interfere in this fight but it looks like she will stop it which is annoying..

This is an awesome episode. Shikamaru is finally promoted to Chunin. You all knew it was going to happen. After all who has proved the most useful out of all the 9 rookies. Thats right. It was the brilliant shikamaru.

Finally the battle we have all been waiting for naruto and sasuske fight. Sakura of course doesn't want the two to battle. That is understandable.

And why exactly is it annoying for Sakura to try to stop her friends from killing one another? I mean with the attacks the two are using, death is a very real possibility. I think when Sasuke used the flame jutsu is when the line was crossed.

And, fuck yeah for Shikamaru. He's awesome, nice scene between him and Chouji btw.

I like the way Sasuke moves. Adn Sakura is being annoying, again.


Shikamaru is a great shinobi and a great friend too! He really deserved it :)

having bumped into his brother and got remembered of everything, and then got so easily knocked off was surely not a good happening to get Sasuke away from his hatred and path of revenge. If it was only this, but to make it worse, seeing how Naruto got so much stronger while he was passing out was more than he could take.
I kinda pity him. Still, his attitude was not acceptable.

Nonetheless, I love his fighting style. Elegant moves. His fights are always enjoyable to watch, even when he's acting like a douche.

Yes Sakura doesnt want anyone to get hurt or anything but why run into the middle of a fight even she should know whats going to happen. Would Sasuke and Naruto even listen to her when they both want to fight each other so bad??

I skipped quite heavily the previous episodes with the running kid.. only checked a few scenes with defeating that electric sword, with Naruto walking on the water and Sasuke just staring at him. The scene before that with Naruto saving the others with the first 2 steps of his training for the Rasengan. I also checked the winning of the run and pretty much skipped everything else in between these scenes. Though I like fillers, I don't like re-watching all of them.

Anyways this episode was awesome, I remember loving this scene and being unable to wait for the next episode with the outcome ^_^. 5/5

Naruto vs Sasuke.
I can understand Sasuke's feelings, but the moment he freaking wasted that apple, I was like: Fuck you, man. Those were some damn good apples =_=
I hate it when characters do that. It's so unnecessary!!
Shikamaru is now a chuunin, and that's good for him. More missions to him ahahaha.
Don't worry, Chouji. You'll shine soon enough.

I find it strange on how serious "Naruto" is about fighting and death(Sakura's reactions), but at the same time it's so shallow about human relationship(Sasuke's motivation and Ino's entire monologue). Great show so far anyway!

Why does Sasuke have to be such an asshole to Sakura. She's just trying to feed you an apple and you just go and knock it out of her hand and step on it, how rude.

Shikamaru is such and awesome guy, really liked his conversation with Chouji.

Looking forward to the fight, would really hate it if Sakura gets struck by an attack or something cliché.

Damn,Sasuke really is edgy.Getting angry for no reason...This is the reason why he'll go where he will go in the future.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

Why do they need to peel the apple? -_- I mean, come on, you guys are better than that. I still not liking Sasuke, almost everybody on this anime had a hard time on its life and don't turn into a gross jerk. Being nice sometimes costs nothing.

Oh No Sasuke Chan!I'm kind of feeling the Berserk's Griffith & Guts vibes here...Not liking where Sasuke is headed...NO...but the serious & quiet ones sometimes,no no,actually most of the times do turn into some ugly stuff...still hoping he won't cross all limits and be rendered unable to return to his former nice self.Please.

sakura seriously annoying, it's seems she's more interested on sasuke paying attention to her than to treat him.

and yeah sasuke, i believe naruto can beat you.

awesome fight, too bad it's gonna end by what it seems....

and people here mistaken for hate sasuke, the way he seeks power is what makes him bad, that last encounter with itachi simply makes him wants to be badass as he were before naruto got stronger.

Choji and Shikamaru lifting each other up was so cute, I love their friendship.
I know Sakura is annoying, but Sasuke was so mean to her.
Cool fight, I love the chidori and rasengan because they look so cool.
Sakura is about to get hurt probably, she should've just stayed out of it.

wow things super slowed down in the last arc but this got me so hyped up. skipped the filler arc before this but didn’t make it that confusing. i love shikamaru’s character and he actually showed more care than usual in this episode.
