The latest episode was totally BS.
My reasons doesn't have anything to do with Animation or flashbacks or voice actors.
The reason I watch the episodes so eagerly because there is a fvcking War going on in the Manga which I want to see epic-ly animated plus WELL structured to get the feel that the War is going on.
what Latest episode showed?
1) The animators doesn't have any sense to understand from where to start the episode. We found Naruto attacking Madara. But it was shown in previous episode and that was epicly performed. But this time it failed.
2) Kakashi vs Obito. Obito's Kamui was not even Kamui. Those shuriken coming out of Kamui was like a kid threw them without aiming. Though since the manga shown it to aim for Kakashi, the shurikens were approaching Kakashi. That's all.
3) Then when Kakashi used the Mud wall jutsu, I wanted that to happen in nice way as if he pulls it out at the last moment and barely survives.
4) Then that sh*tty thing. Obito phased through the wall approaching Kakashi who was still a little far from the Mud wall and still managed to wound his leg while Kakashi was just staring at him.
5) Hirudora. Also Gai wasn't even looking exhausted when he pulled Hirudora.
And many more to explain.... but I'll stop here.
Now, What I want to say is the animators seemed to just copy-paste the manga images into the episodes with a little movements of the characters. Damn, at least think of a way for example if B happens after A then put C in between.
A simple example from the episode I'll say,
When Kakashi pulled out the Mud wall, and his focus from Obito was hindered because of it, Obito should be shown to be surprisingly approaching him and quickly phases through the wall and comes in front of Kakashi's face due to which Kakashi gets shocked and tries to fall back but falls on the ground and Obito nails the shuriken quickly with blood throwing out of the wound.
After this huge break, I expected the animators to be doing a good job but they are still noobs.
You can call it a whining and you'll say "shut up, you're getting it free". Sorry, I'm not the one who said to upload the episodes on the internet. Keep it in your country and sell them at your own prices. No one cares. But you're selling it for the fans. SO you must think from their perspective about how the animated episodes can become famous and they will be motivated by the likes the animators get from the fans. Is it that much hard?
Animating isn't my job. But atleast try to add some emotions to those drawings man!!
If you think about other animes like HxH, I'm not comparing the animation part but they are taking a required pace with the next scene by adding a little tension in the scene. That's what I wanted to see in the Naruto Shippuden animes which I only got to see in Naruto part 1 and Naruto Shippuden (till sasuke vs Danzo arc)
