Wow... I actually had tears coming up in the first part of the Obito flashback. They chose a good OST for that one. His voice was weird in the beginning but it started growing on me. Can't wait for the next episodes, pity it only resumes at the 9th of January but yeah.

The part you are talking about happens a little later (Chapter 603 I believe) ;)

1) I seriously Lol'd at the face of Obito when showed. That was totally off drawing. ( from 15:10 to 15:15 and then 15:53 to 16:00 mins) XD Who's that man?

2) Kid Obito's and Kid Kakashi's voice were similar to Gon and Killua's (from HxH 2011) voices. (during their last mission) They changes the voice actors too much.

3) They were looking too much aged during their chunin exams compared to Kakashi's Gaiden episode. (reverse aging?)

4) Obito said he don't want to be anyone, He's no one. And yet he mimic'd to be Madara, Plus he changed his voice as well. Lol

5) The actions aren't much packed and impressive. ( What I only liked was the part before the opening song and Obito's fire style through Kamui)

6) Episodes started showing the need for new animators (current level : below the ground)

Ratings : 2/5

That part has yet to happen. It was not shown in the manga at this point.

Hell no.

It's called psychological warfare, he was trying to put Kakashi even more down. She is not his sole reason for doing this, contrary to what the angry fanboys and ragers would like you to believe.

Finally happened, eh. Granted, the manga covered this like two years ago but it was certainly a good episode nevertheless and probably a pretty big moment for those who only follows the anime.

5/5

I'm sorry but this Episode is HORRIBLE.

The art was beyond shit. I have seen better Fan artwork and the team should either be fired and replace.
I'm honestly over the sheer amount of garbage the animators think they can get away with. If you watch even the "good" episodes the only time they are even drawn half decent is the action parts and then they jump back and forth. it really says allot what the studios think of their fans. I feel sorry for anyone who even buys the dvds in general.

obioto is such a HUGE part of the story now and honestly I can't think of more than 2 clips/episodes where he was animated half decently. Seriously Kabuto's flash back episodes as of now gives him more better animation time than obito through the entire Show! Seriously they knew for over a year this episode was coming. What's the "Excuse"?

" They have to animate more episodes ", You kidding me? How does dividing a team up to make fillers ( That are animated BETTER than the main episodes ) help them "Speed up"? I can't even view the show that seriously anymore. What a whole year and we got like 4 or 5 actual episodes that had any kind of quality.

Obitos child voice really didn't need to be changed. There isn't an excuse for that either. They had a YEAR to know they would need to get the same actor. They had no problem getting him for the storm games. I can't even take the adult version seriously because of how badly he was drawn.

is it that hard to trace scenes from the manga and animate them? or do they let the interns from a community college animate one of the biggest twist of the entire anime? Also wasn't obito suppose to be IN THE AIR when Naruto Hit him?

The amount of poorly drawn obito mask the past 2 months is proof enough.

Wow, calm your tits man.

You're comparing fanart to animation? That's your first mistake. Don't ever think an anime will look like fanart at all. These are moving pictures for which they have way less time then for fanart.

About the voice actor, maybe the original voice actor didn't agree to the terms for a new contract? Calm down, think for a minute and then criticize.

Are you kidding? it was garbage. Stop supporting nonsense.

Madara's Fan changed shape like 12 times. It was misshapen so bad it was a joke.

Next these are Japanese cartoons. There is LESS Actual Movement in them than in American ones yet you don't see the quality drop so bad and as constant. They Zoom in and Pan most of the shots to take up more frames. Ed , Edd and Eddy has more movement and constant quality being that every character is drawn completely different and not some generic head shape with dif hair and colored eyes.

Maybe They should stop OUT sourcing and drawn the episodes In Japan. Wheres the quality control? Someone has to sit there and watch these and feel like crap releasing them knowing that the animators they hired can't even draw a giant fan or mask the same shape for more than 2 scenes.

I bet that if you were to work with them for a week you'd understand that it's not as easy as you think it is.

And I'm sure if I had the drawing skills of an Korean Art graduate I would have no problem doing the job. Don't think I don't know anything of Animation and software. I am a Design graduate and I know plenty people who are animators.

Like I said Fillers have had better animation than the MAIN episodes. ****ing Komohamru vs temari had better animation
than the reveal of on of the Biggest Enemies in the show. Pokemon has more constant quality of animation and that show is MUCH older.

Look at Naruto Bijuu mode First time. They didn't even animate the part where obito made the hand seal for the tailed beast to attack. You can hear it and that's it. After 10 years you would think they would know how to draw the same characters by now.

And the SAME Bs is in the Games. Look at Ninja storm 3. They are up to this battle and guess what? Jugo Is STILL In the same prison outfit. 90% of the characters are just copy and pasted from 4+ years ago. The 'Story Mode" is just 1 Long loading screen with pretty backdrops that get interrupted with more loading screens and stupid "flash backs" an dmore loading screens just to have filler space between the boss battles to give the game "Content".

Obito's voice is something different, that'll take some getting used to. But now he is Obito.. not a random mysterious dark stranger that pretends to be Madara. He has an identity and that voice supports that. It fits him.

The episode in general. It was OK. I liked the compilation of Obito's past but we saw his death scene twice in 10 minutes, that was a bit overdoing the flashback thing, but this is Naruto so heck... what can you expect. Madara's entrance happened quite suddenly though. I would've preffered seeing the episode end in a fade out after Obito said "Because you let Rin die..". But I suppose this works out ok. 3/5
