Honestly, I think they needed to make Asuma more important for a more dramatic effect when the inevitable comes shortly enough. Hence, the Kazuma-Asuma conflict. I mean, Asuma hasn't gotten that face time whatsoever in the series thus far even though he is the son of the Sandaime. It's all about the dramatic exit that they can drag on for 3 episodes.

I actually thought this filler arc was a lot better than the others. I mean, it wasn't executed great, but it was great to have more backstory for both Asuma and that monk of the fire temple :D it'll make the events coming up more awesome.

which is hawt ~_~
 
yeah i meant Hidan I keep mixing their names up, the other guy's name is Kazuma? I thought it was Kazuzu but I'm bad with names

I actually wouldn't mind if they go a little slower now that Hidan has entered, hey, they could make his "Past" a part of some necessary filler. I wouldn't mind.

I hope they don't do this. Hidan is, well, extremely annoyin'/complex if you get down to it. However, I bet we see his and Kakuzu's bounty excursion into the Fire country. I think that's what brought the filler episodes with Sora on. Now that Sora is gone they'll go in the temple and get ol' boy for his head's purse. Hopefully they wont leave out Manga material.

Kazuma was Sora's father. The bad guy with long white hair in the recent filler episodes. He went under another alias though to deceive Sora.

I absolutely agree. I think this was the best filler arc of them all, to be honest. I just want to see the destruction of the Fuujin Rasengan. :woot:
 
yeah....i wonder if he's going to leave Oodama Rasengan as a one time thing since I guess he has no reason to use it if he's going balls to the wall with Fuuton Rasengan.

But then again I think Rasengan is kind of a meh attack, he needs to balance his abilities with different jutsu

NO WAI!

Gawdamn, we shoulda spoken about this for like, a page or two before you made this post, it's way important.
 
I still stand with Asuma having a very small role throughout the manga makes no sense since he's the damn Son of the Sandaime. Of course, you never learn of his sibling either considering he's Konohamaru's uncle, he must have a sibling. Dunno if still alive or not, but one would assume so since that was never brought up and you figure it would be one more similarity between Konohamaru and Naruto.
 
Well, he's a tertiary character. I don't really care to have an expansive backstory for a tertiary character. His death only really served to fuel a secondary characters will to get the power up and win the game.
 
True, it just seems like with all the bullshit waste-of-time filler anime they've done, they really could have built upon their core theme of "bonds." If anything, they haven't done shit to grow one of Naruto's first bonds with Konohamaru. Instead, they have a series with a test subject and Anko and shit. Anko wouldn't even be tertiary... I mean, does she even exist anymore? Be nice to see what happened to her since Orochimaru died -.-;;

Lose the curse seal and that's about it. Kishimoto just tossed her aside when her purpose was fulfilled which is sad, Anko was hot.

why yesh that fish net wearing lady was

and I"m also a little pissed how Kishi has bumped off some good characters and reduced the personalities of others, he said he's focusing on different characters at a time but that sounds like he's dragging out the anime or he's just focusing on the main characters and winding it up after finishing the last one.

really just the same stuff, more fighting against the 8-tails. the jinchuriki guy activates an aura around him like naruto does when he taps into the kyuubi's power, sasuke tries a genjutsu and gets owned pretty badly, some stuff is said about juugo healing him by merging with his chakra or something like that.

the 8 tails says that because his bijuu's chakra merging with his, genjutsu is ineffective. after this, he transforms into full 8-tailed form, essentially putting sasuke vs a bijuu

a mix of boring and awesome...

anyways, just seen shippuden 72 in raw format, pretty badass. Seems like the next episode will incorporate the filler characters from that temple, no word on if Sora will be involved.
 
they can't do that, it deviates from the manga's plot.

They had better not seperate, I wear I'll fucking stop watching it if they do that
