Shikamaru and Chouji showed off the value of teamwork...

They need to trust each other.
Shikamaru is amazing!

Man, I can't believe Kiba and Naruto weren't able to figure out that it was part of the plan =_=

It frustrated me that Naruto took that long to try the rasengan. Would he have been able to do it if he tried it right off the bat? Stupid things that will remain unanswered.

Kiba and Naruto are both pretty slow XD

Damn,Naruto is retarded.I hope he'll change in Shippuden.Nice job by Shikamaru.And I mean,gj Choji,but still that's the only thing he can do,so it's not exactly awesome.

If Naruto and Kiba would shut the hell up and read the mood. Jesus.
Even Choji and Neji at first were like, "Okay. Something's happening, but I don't know what". Like come on y'all. At least Kiba caught on a little or at least calmed down a bit. Naruto just... dsjfjsd I think he was supposed to be the audience's reaction, BUT at least all of these characters had varied reactions and that was really good. If they all had the same reaction, it wouldn't have felt as real-- for an unrealistic situation that is. My gosh I love this arc.

shikamaru is smart and all, but i really thought about 80% of his plan once i saw there were holes that seems to heal fast and slow.

maybe it's because i'm tired, but the pace seems little off.

Also, how in the hell are Naruto and Kiba ninja when they are THIS stupid. Don't get me wrong, I love them to death, but how did they really think Shikamaru was actually just gonna sell them out like that LMFAOOO

What a strategy by shikamaru. Clearly evident why he was chosen to become a chunin
