Naruto Shippuden Episode 323 "The Five Kage Assemble" – Discussion

[Lilvic92]

I pay 7 dollars a month on my crunchyroll account I have every right to critique this episode. It sucked. But next episode appears to be good so I'm not really upset.

I really don't get how so many people liked the episode. I have read the manga so I knew what was going to happen and was disappointed a lot. The animations were awful. And it seems the next episodes animations will be the same. The episode before this one was so much better. This episode was supposed to be more epic. And Madara at 2:06... really? Speaking of Madara, he wasn't so badass like he is supposed to be in this episode, like when kages defended them self with sand and rock golem, Madara didn't sound calm and cool, it was like he was pissed. Thats not Madara I know from last episode or from manga.

That is a bad excuse. Every TV show is free and you don't see them doing the bare minimum and saying "Oh well it's free so be happy." Naruto has been one of the top anime for a long time there is no way that they are low on money. And we, the fans, are the ones who made it popular in the first place if it wasn't for us the manga could have ended a long time ago. The least they could do is give us consistently decent animation.

Sorry for the rant it just annoys me when people say that.

I do agree they the animation should improve and be like it was in the 5 kage summit arc, but it is kind of true about the funding. Naruto has been a top series for years and must of made a lot of money but we don't know how the money is distributed. The anime and manga are different things where the manga may have made loads of money with manga sales in Japan that might not help the anime as most people people do not buy each episode anywhere and so many people just watch it for free. So we don't know how the anime are with funding and obviously the anime must need a lot more funding to produce episodes than the manga and it may not be getting it.


But I agree the standard everyday episode animation is pretty crappy but once again for something we don't put a penny towards it's not the worst. Because what say can you have if you don't pay for it, "I'm not paying for this shit no more!"?. At least when people review things like games movies and books they pay for the content they are getting so they have a strong right to criticize the people who made it.

The animation was grand. I'm sick of people complaining about it. The animators haven't mastered the 'Money Summoning no Jutsu'. Last week was a special chance to bring people in and make an awesomely animated episode. Just like Naruto vs Sasuke at the VOTE and Kakashi and Ino-Shika-Cho vs Kakazu and Hidan. It was an important and action-packed moment in the manga so that's way it got that animation. I'd love if every episode was like it but this is life and the money isn't available.

Good words! I suggest that if you feel like the anime's crappy, just accept it and laugh it off. If we can't do anything about it, why waste time filling this forum with complains? Now if someone who has the power to animate the manga on his own, or speak up to the animation company to propose solutions, well thank you

Cool but too much speech the previous one was much better more action and stuff.

 

[Genetics]

4/5. Animation doesn't compare to last weeks but I don't really mind. Everything was expected so it didn't feel slow paced either. good episode. Wonder if Utakata and Naruto will remember each other from that 6 tails filler

 

[-ahhimane-]

1/5
lack of proper use of background music
nothing compared to previous one (to be precise, 322).
improper syncing of story line.(not felt)
This was BS.
These are my thoughts so I don't care what other say. I'll be still watching and following the show because it is my favorite.

 

[syed47]

Just watched it......... ah man that was awesome...... the best one....... especially when raikage and mizukage attacked together, damn..... i got many awesome moments to watch........ this episode deserves to be praised...!

 

[Hyuga Prodigy]

4/5

I don't like the fact that they added the Dust Sand cause that demolish the epicness

Couple Animation Problems

Other than that, I love the Action sequence, good pacing, Great way to Hook the Series =)

Can't Wait for The Tail Beast Showdown and You Know Utakata with the good extra Fillers =)

 

[White Lotus]

Loved the episode. Every single detail, even the animation (which looked poor in some cases). The main battles are almost upon us. It's getting intense.

3/5

+ The animation wasn't as good as last episode, but it sure was better than most of the latest episodes from Shippuden. :yeah:
+ I'm not sure, but I think that every part of the episode was canon.
+ The actin was good. =D

- Mei's Lava Release wasn't as it should have been. hmm
- I spotted a lot of thing that were different in the Manga, not big things, but still different. The Third Raikage's eyes sclera should be black, like reincarnated person, but they were not.

More accurately, he should have had his eyes closed at that time.

In the Manga, Chōjūrō had pierced Black Zetsu so he can't move, but in the Anime that wasn't the case.

- Around 16:19, Naruto says: "A Stone Golem and a Sand Shield" - I really don't think he was the one who said it in the Manga.

From 16:37 to 16:40, Ōnoki is talking, but his lips are not moving. Instead, A's lips are. . . WTF?! :erm:

 

[ILikeBigYolos]

The animation was great. I give the ep a 4/5

 

[sLm]

Konan's song and Kushina's song, and Narutobi headbang. All I'll say xD.

Maybe for the Chojuro scene they didn't want him to be that brutal, maybe it was a form of censoring lol :eww:I doubt it though they have shown worse in the series.

I was confused about that scene with naruto as well, I was thinking when did naruto become this smart to describe jutsu's that are taking place I'm sure that wasn't him in the manga.

 

[scorezor]

i still think that the manga is far superior than the anime :'(

 

[BestFriendsForever]

4/5. It was an awesome episode! Can't wait for the upcoming ones!

 

[Shadou]

I thought the episode was decent.

 

[SkylineGTR]

Honestly, all that matters to me is that its on track now and not a filler.

Could really care less about rating it.
