IMO Ep. 82 "Team Ten" was one of the best Naruto episodes (and possibly one of the best anime episodes) ever made. The chapter was handled more like a small, self-contained movie rather than just a simple piece to cover the manga from A to B, and the art direction and atmosphere were absorbing and focused.
The undersaturated colors, the subtle expressions in the characters' faces, the lack of dialogue, and even the absence of music gave us a somber, almost eerie environment. As we watched we knew that an outburst of emotion was inevitable, but I don't think any of us expected it to come from one of the series' most emotionally-devoid characters. When Shikamaru broke down I think we all could relate. We try to be strong and endure, but even at our toughest we still have to feel.
I could go on for days about how well done this episode was.
