Episode 143 - "The Hachibi Vs. Sasuke"

January 16, 2010
    The latest episode of Naruto Shippuden finishes off the fight between Sasuke and Killer Bee. The whole action is in one place although a lot of terraforming happens after the Hachibi shows his true powers. But before his unique way of wielding eight blades (although I saw him “holding” only seven) with every possible part of his body except his hands (the usual part of your body when you ‘handle’ a blade) . I found the battle really interesting and breathtaking, I liked the animation a lot (the way Sasuke’s eyes were following all of the blades around him)


    and the attitude of Killer Bee right before his ass being kicked very hard by Sasuke’s Amaterasu. Well it is truth that he almost died once (the time Karin healed him and got an orgasm he wasn’t fatally injured) but with little help from Juugo (and some flesh too) Sasuke was jumping and spamming Amaterasu around. I wan’t to point out the usefulness of Juugo – I really liked the way he could stream his chakra and do things that only Jetfighters can do


    (Oh yeah and Mr. Fantastic’s hand lol). Suigetsu well he was cool too, although his weakness is Lighting and he was randomly zapped by killer Bee or Sasuke, he still had a moment to shine(quickly darkened by the Hachibi’s Shoop Da Whoop).


Probably you can't see Suigetsu on the picture but he is there, represented by a thin layer of water around Hachibi's blast. However once the Amaterasu came on the stage the fight ended quickly.
    I want to mention that it is funny how Kishi made Sasuke take off his Akatsuki robe, rather than lose it in a violent way, which is a trademark for dying Akatsuki member… from this we can conclude that  it is important for the story that these random ninjas saw the Uchiha crest on Sasuke’s back. We will see what happens next with the Raikage (who is cool as only Hell can be)
    Now some words about the coming episodes – they will be fillers (yeah I know :( In the manga Naruto goes straight back to Konoha. But I think the filler will be interesting because it will feature the Six Tails Host. I don’t know his name or abilities (death by bubbles maybe) but I am sure that this is him since Madara stated that there are 3 Bijuus not captured (referring to Naruto Killer Bee and obviously that Bubble guy) in #142. Also I have seen some pictures of the nine hosts and he looks very similar to the host of the 6 tails. So here is a pic of him from the next episode


And here are two pictures of him which I have seen in forums couple of times (on the second one he is the guy in the blue robe making bubbles)





 

Episode 142 - "The Battle of Unraikyo"

January 16, 2010
Soo at last the needed dose of Naruto has been given to us after two weeks of waiting.  The episode doesn’t start where we left the last one. Rather than to the picturesque seashore, we were taken to the gloomy ex-battlefield between Sasuke and Itachi.


    There Kakashi and the team give one last shot at tracking Sasuke but they all fail. I think this happens because Madara has transported the exhausted Sasuke to one of the Akatsuki hideouts, not leaving any scent to be tracked.

    Now I rea...

Episode 141 - "Truth"

December 26, 2009
    In the latset episode we are missing the action again - there is no movement at all, except in the end when the play is moved to the seashore.


    Of course after that we are hit with 5 minutes of flashbacks about the good and loving Itachi. Actually when I saw that scene I thought that the episode has ended because it looks just like the background of the ending theme. This makes me think that the next time we will have some other themes for begining and end, after all this arc has ended ...

Episode 140 - "Fate"

December 17, 2009
This is the new episode which reveals some of Itachi's background but lacks the action we would like. The whole episode takes place in one room and the only two characters having any lines at all are Sasuke and Madara (if Sasuke's incoherent speech can be called lines at all).

    Actually besides the flashbacks there is nothing discussable. They just sit there and Madara ties up the teenager in order to make him listen. So what about flashbacks? - well Sasuke's were kind of messed up which re...

Episode 139 - "The Mystery of Tobi"

December 15, 2009
    So the episode begins where the last one left us - the end of the epic Sasuke vs Itachi. As we see on his face Sasuke doesn't believe what is happening to him so he makes a little reality check

    After doing this he sheds a blood tear. The effect is really good knowing that the blood is belonging to Itachi. This I think is made for preparation of the viewer for the next episode and revealing Itachi's real motives for his deeds. And in the end Sasuke faints which is understandable.
