I give it a 3. Too much unnecessary flashbacks... And I felt like the portrayal is so off in comparison with the manga...
When I read the manga, I got a different vibe from all if it, but in the anime, it kinda ruins it, dunno...
At least the animation is decent. But of course, it has Sasuke, otherwise it would've been so crap.
Meh...

Mediocre episode again. The screenwriters have no imagination at all it seems. Just throw in some flashbacks to fill the episode and that'll do. It doesn't work that way, it is so bad for the pacing of a story. I had hoped to see some more interesting footage of Sasuke, too bad.

the episode was disappointing i skipped most of it as it was pointless flashbacks of past stuff that we already know and hold no importance

1/5 add some filler content at least. Flashbacks ruin the anime. I liked the canon parts but they were like 5mins of the episode.

The episode was crap, and this is from someone the watches fillers all the time with reasonable satisfaction. I'm not very interested in Sasuke episodes to begin with, but the moments he really should have shone were poorly done. When he used the enton orb in the manga I was actually impressed. In the anime it just happened so fast and was really just a none issue type thing. If I was a sasuke fan and had been waiting for this scene I would have been really pissed off. The didn't even animate it from sasuke' point of view like in the manga. Also why did the zetsu try to run away? Did he forget he can sink into the ground?

I give it a 1.5/5. Sasuke episode generally aren't that interesting to me and the flashbacks didn't help.

Those flashbacks were unnecessary, last week's episode was a cool down to all the action previously, but this was just too much. But I enjoyed his moment though he didn't shine like he was supposed to. His OST always makes me happy.

I'll give it a 3/5

Can't wait for next week's episode, I hope we make a headway with the Uchiha brother and not just Onoki and the Kages vs Madara.

=D

I was disappointed, I expected life in it, but the anime seemed kinda dead. I don't have problems with the flashbacks since they are kishi's way of showing emotions. 3½/5..

4/5

My first reaction to this episode when I saw Konohamaru walking with his friends was “Ohh no... Not the Allied Mum Forces again...” but fortunately that wasn’t the case. It was all just to build up to Karin’s scene which was by the way, hilarious yet quite disturbing.

Regarding those flashbacks, the latest episode consisted of 7.5 minutes of them (omitting the 1 minute flashback at the end which was canon). That’s a bit too much for one episode and instead, the animators should have integrated more filler parts into this episode. Though, at least the chosen flashback wasn’t out of place (it was good to see Suigetsu’s questioning his camaraderie with Sasuke and that eventually lead to Jugo's punch).

As for Sasuke's scene, I thought it was done superbly. His malevolent personality was clearly portrayed in his words and action. I love the way he acted all tough in front of those White Zetsu and made them look like they were his toys. In particular, that scene at the end when Sasuke killed the petrified Zetsu (who was desperately fleeing away from him) was just total bada*s. Though, I wish they could have extended his appearance in this episode.

The preview of the next episode looks great. Looking forward to 332.

It was nice to see Sasuke, unfortunately they ruined it with two things. First: The unnecessary flashbacks, which pretty much diluted how good the Juugo and Suigetsu part good have been. And second: Sasuke vs Zetsu. Against them, Sasuke used Yasaka Magatama made out of black flames. I didn't see a thing, even though I looked over and over. It looked like he just shot out flames with no form at them. Especially against the final Zetsu. They didn't even show what he was hit with. There was a slight thing when Sasuke was forming Susano'o, it's complete stage didn't look like the complete stage at all. I don't know what that thing was but it wasn't his Susano'o. Still it was nice to see Sasuke, but it was not nearly as good as it could have been.

Still I can't nitpick. Sasuke was still portrayed amazingly, and while it wasn't perfect, sure as hell wasn't anywhere close to being bad either. 4/5 for me.
