4/5 Did I hear filler I didn't see any filler :snick: I just skipped right to canon.


The animation was normal for naruto. Some of these scenes in the episode were some of my favourite moments in the manga such as the naruto headbut with Tobi, Tobi saying you can call him whatever you want and that he's nobody and where naruto starts to get pissed off with this character Tobi and everything that he is doing. They were great to watch :)



One thing I think kishi didn't tackle to great is that naruto should now know that this mask man is the reason for his parents death I thought part of the headbut was for that but there has been no mention of it till this date.



Because I read the manga I kind of laughed a little when Tobi said that you jinjuriki's suffering must make you know a little of his despair. When most readers who know Tobi's despair and motivation consider it to be a joke and saying he should get over it.



I really feel kishi should have gave Tobi the most saddest and painful backstory in the series he should have went all out and no body would complain. I'm just saying it could have been deeper involving parents and other people and things etc..

It's good to know that the next episode will cover 2 manga chapters, 565 and 566, because we saw Guy in the preview. :p

Re: Naruto Shippuden Episode 324 SUCKS (partly)

Naruto Shippuden Episode 324 just came out,I watched it,I didn't like it a lot and HERE'S why!

First of all,the animation drastically changed after episode 322 and continued that change to episode 324.I would've pointed episode 323's flaws by now,but we're talking about episode 324.Now,what if the animation was kept the same as the one from the episode where Madara drops a f**king meteor on the Shinobi Alliance and does an overkill?It would be so much better if Pierrot could do the same for every Naruto Shippuden episode!

Second of all,this episode was mostly focused on Saiken a.k.a the Jinchuuriki of Utakata.This was never shown in the manga.I know that some times,the episodes slightly differentiate from the manga and vice versa,because they want to put some more detail into the story.But making a CANNON episode,which has 20% CANNON in it is ridiculous!Also,I saw the preview for the next episode and guess who is this episode focused on,I'm giving you 5 SECONDS,seriously.......that's right-Roushi a.k.a the Jinchuuriki of Son Goku!WTF!If you're gonna focus on a character who wasn't focused on in the manga,MAKE IT A F**KING FILLER!Seriously,we were following 5 months of fillers (god if I hear that "kon kon kon" again...) and now Pierrot or whoever wrote this piece of crap decided to cut the half of the new episode and put in some stupid flashback that Im completely sure we don't need and stream the episode!Genius!

I guess you understood me,so I will stop until the next episode...tell me what you think.

That animation used for episode 322 is expensive and must take a lot of effort they only do great animation like that for important or episode with high amounts of action. Because of funding issues the animation cannot stay like that constantly.
Of course it would be better if it could though.


Because of the fillers the anime has done in the past they had altered the story in making naruto know one of the jinjuriki's. Because of this and so the story can make sense to anime viewers naruto meeting this guy again had to be addressed as naruto would know this guy and it wouldn't make sense to be like who are you? The anime team ran them self into a corner and now had to do this dumb filler to address it. Either way I just skipped it and didn't watch it. Why they had to make that much content to address the issue I do not know.


The next episode is not focused on son goku? It is cannon. From the preview we are covering content from manga chapters 565 and 566 which should be great. Look at manga chapter 568 that is when kishi focused on son goku.


This cannon episode having filler should be a one off to address a filler they have done in the past, we should be getting full cannon episodes from now.

They might as well,HAVEN'T known eachother which is also a possibility.And,how are they not getting paid for the fillers?

And just like you, I skipped to the canon.
I loved the Utakata vs Pain fight, but I thought he'll go full Bijuu:'(
Anyways can't wait for next week's episode:bouncy:

Re: Naruto Shippuden Episode 324 SUCKS (partly)

I know right? I was so mad. I was like "please don't tell me you dedicated the whole episode to its kata based off some stupid filler!!" Here is what you do when you need to let Naruto recognize utakata ftom previous crap filler bogusness: "utakata?!" Then go back to fighting. Or better yet don't make the stupid filler arc in the first place because I've caught up to the current anime and can no longer skip it. Jerkfaces.

If we go by canon they do don't know each other but there was a filler years ago in the anime where naruto and this jinjuriki had already met. So that filler effected the anime canon storyline. But I just skipped it and don't care for it.


They do get money from filler as well, I am saying that animation used in 322 is expensive and because of overall funding issues we only get that animation in important episodes and episodes with high amounts of action.

And also were getting full canon from now so all is good.

I was saying,that they could use the money from the filllers to make better animation.The other half of the fillers goes to the hard-working people of course.

I'm going to re-watch the episode later to see my favourite parts so I might just stay to watch that part people say it was a good fight. But once again I'm not watching all the talking scenes quite pointless really in terms of the story anyway.

Re: Naruto Shippuden Episode 324 SUCKS (partly)

Also,why Utakata?Why not some other Jinchuuriki,like Yagura?He has a better connection with Obito,since he was manipulated by him...I still hate the episode,but they could've focused on Yagura,so that they can center around the mystery of Tobi!After all we're reaching the final battle.


Do you not understand? There was a filler arc years ago where naruto had already met this jinjuriki the anime team was addressing that issue.

They did not just randomly pick him.


THERE WAS A FILLER ARC YEARS AGO ABOUT HIM.

It doesn't work as simply as that. Its an overall funding issue. Even the people who animate the normal canon episodes will not do animation like 322 unless the episode is important. That's just how it is in this anime. We have to deal with it.

Re: Naruto Shippuden 324 has only '8 minutes' of canon. The rest is filler.

so all i have to do is cut the filler part of this episode and join the cannon part with upcomming episode's cannon part,like i did uptil now with my collection,lol i even asked one of my animator friend to fix those 20 sec. infamous donkey face of badass animation episode 167,planetary devastation,though let's see if it's even possible...

Well,he could've just went by and Naruto could've just said "Hey!That's Utakata!It looks like they captured him!"
Isn't that a possibility?

Re: Naruto Shippuden Episode 324 SUCKS (partly)

the only jinjurriki we actually got to see defeated in battle was gaara. i hope we get a little glimpse of how each was defeated, but it'll probably just be utakata since he was already in the anime.

I love this episode!

I thought the ending of the Utakata Arc wasn't that great because Utakata was easily killed by Pain's missiles. However, the fight between him and Pain was shown again and more importantly extended in the latest episode. That fighting scene was just awesome! We got to witness a Jinchuuriki going berserk, plus more of Pain's abilities! Who else initially thought that Pain was using Chibaku Tensei when we saw Utakata's V2 form flying up? I certainly did! Though, it was just the work of one of his summonings (more specifically, the green lizard that can camouflage).

The rest of the episode was pretty good. I love watching the Jinchuuriki fighting each other (we will get to see more in the next episode) and I enjoyed listening to Naruto's speech to Obito, particularly the part where we saw Bee smiling after Naruto said living with a tailed-beast isn't all that bad. Also, a lot of people seem to hate the other flashbacks of Utakata but I didn't mind it at all because those flashbacks refreshed my memory of how amazing that Utakata Arc really was.

5/5

If we were forced to sit through each and every death of the Jinchuuriki,I would drown myself in a freaking pool.It's a good idea though.They could implement that on all the other fillers they would make.

Lool a possibility? That is what should have bloody happened. The anime team love to spam us with filler. Didn't you see I said it like 3 times I just skipped it. I didn't care for this BS
