Anko's five minutes of fame.

I remember when this arc started I thought she'd be a major character in the show.

Let alone when they added in her rebelling against Orochimaru who was her teacher backstory.

She was Orochimaru's apprentice!  Just about everyone else connected to him ends up being important somehow.

They're basically just rerunning parts of the show with new animation, with maybe a little bit of extra moments.  What is the point?!

And this is the worst possible time for filler!  Right when the war was about to start!

You said "So this is basically a repaint of an old Naruto episode?"

I was agreeing lol

It seems like they basically just replayed the old episode for most of this episode lol

I gotta say I agree with him. This show really is legendary!

Are you fucking serious?  We just had this discussion not too long ago.  Major parts of the story go to shit and it has filler out the ass!

That isn't Kiba's hair but just fringe on his jacket we eventually found out. T___T

Lmao it's such bullshit that Sasuke and Sakura would even get together.  Sasuke when he seemingly had no interest in her and Sakura not moving on after he became a horrible person.

Oh right, back when Kakashi decided to train Sasuke and pretty much ignored Naruto and Sakura's training for a while. That was so weird.

That made no sense and then it immediately backfires when Sasuke betrays everyone and just makes Kakashi look like an idiot for not expecting that Sasuke might go down that path, especially how troubled he knew he already was.

Well kishimoto did say that sasuke was his favorite character in naruto which is why the story would centered around that character alot

Yeah not a good sign lol.  Even then Sasuke's character still isn't written well.

yeah sasuke character arc  does go back and forth alot.I think another reason for that is because  manga readers  votes amounted to sasuke placing 1st on almost every character popularity polls ever since shippuden.kishimoto didn't want to ignore that

Why was he ranking first?  The cool factor I can see, but he's an asshole.  Sasuke's "friendship" with Naruto consists of them being little shits to each other and Kishimoto constantly going back to a whole THREE friendship moments that had and the characters saying that their best friends.  So because of that shitty build up and Sasuke being a bit of a bastard from the start, it's kind of hard to buy in to the whole destroyed friendship thing and wanting Sasuke to redeem himself.  Besides, Kakashi is way "cooler" than Sasuke, anyway, if cool factor is the main concern.

I think it's because Sasuke fulfilled his goal of killing his brother(technically) and having the strength to take down other big shot villains like orochimaru,dedaira,etc. Is also main characters said rival despite said best friendship basically I guess the manga readers in japan really liked  every aspect of his character when it comes to his personality,back story,character interactions,character design ,and moveset.

He also has his own spin off manga

Yeah their destroyed friendship is pretty much  a plothole with flashbacks specifinally created to show best friend status.Kishimoto glossed through that part
