Check out the Taijutsu skills, kunai usage, and then the fight towards the end of the opening. Damn I miss that.

 

[Defence]

Yeah now they are all on facebook

 

[Sasori]

Those were days. Now it all DBZ Death Balls XD

 

[Ricardo]

Those were days. Now it all DBZ Death Balls XD

And Sasuke's sacred balls.

 

[Kiiszame]

Yup. The show quickly became DBZ/Bleach.

Pt.1 was the pinnacle of Ninja. :-( Just watching the anime gave you thrills, never knew what was going to happen. Miss those days.

Skill, weapons, and strategy

Ninjas were ninjas. Hashirama and Madara were Legends known to have carved out the terrain around them through their battles alone. And the Sage of the Six Paths was a mystery.

I guess once Hashirama and Madara were revived... there was no going back to the days when Ninja were simply Ninja.

 

[SenseiSama]

And Sasuke's sacred balls.

And his spear

 

[Pukkake Pokayo]

Pepperidge farm remembers. Shikamaru's fights <3 dat strategy.

What actually happened with Kishi? He tell the editors screw themselves after a while or did he start watching too much Star Trek and Sci-Fi?

 

[ninjarasengan]

Nope...i remember people summoning giant water dragons though.

Man, part 1 was the real deal when it came to showing what a real life ninja is U_U We had a fight between a giant talking frog that carries a sword vs a giant sand raccoon capable of destroying an entire forest in one blast, People can summon water shaped liked dragons, magical eyes that had special techniques like being able to copy people and etc. Part 2 some bullshit, like aliens? Really Kishi? From a series where giant talking frogs are a thing, I expect something a bit more realistic :wesobi:

 

[Aznkidd]

Is shannaroo count as ninja ?

 

[Fire Goddess]

Back in the day

Your sarcasm is impeccable

Wait a goddamn minute! Y'all praise Part 1 for it's usage of the kunai & ninja tools and ***** about part 2 and all the "Over the top" techniques, but when in Naruto Gaiden, it was Shin vs Naruto & Sasuke, y'all was *****ing about them not using the OP techniques even though they were using basic ass shit early Part 1 would've used y'all praise to the heavens about you can truly never satisfy this fanbase, they flip-flop more than a magikarp.
