So happy to see Tsunade kick some serious ass in the dueling against Orochimaru and Kabuto. So convinced that Tsunade and Shizune are secretly lovers.... (hey, you can't blame a girl for hoping/wishing)
Perhaps it's because I started the series late and there are more episodes ahead of me, or perhaps it's because I'm already further along in the manga - but Naruto almost dying evoked no feels from me. Mainly because I knew he was going to live.... how can you do a show called Naruto and have Naruto die halfway through the 200 episode series? It's just bonkers. I did feel kind of like a heartless bitch though... like I should be feeling feels. But I wasn't.
I was advised that the remainder of "Naruto" is basically just filler and won't follow the manga for quite some time.... possibly until I get into Naruto Shippuden. But you know what, that's okay. Now the episode with Guy and Lee... THAT made me bawl. I am so stoked that some of these other characters are going to get some episodes to shine.
And though I normally dislike Konohamaru episodes... the last one with his trying to protect the Third Hokage's memory was both funny and touching.
