I just wanted to give you all a heads up on episode 72.  Shehryar, our editor for Naruto, is out of the country for vacation. This is the last episode he edited. Nahid is currently editing episode 72 for you all and it will be up before 5pm today! Will update you all if there are any changes. We are still set for a triple drop of 73 74 75 next week. Thanks for all your support and patience!

You already know next week is going to be off it’s tits 🔥

Ji-pi Doyon

3 of the most powerful Kage fighting ...hell yeah !!

Zee

I do have a suggestion and I’ll throw this out early. The new OP comes out 2 episodes too early. I would suggest skipping the intro for those two episodes (78 & 79) and catching it for 80. It’s not the most important thing in the world but I think it’ll improve your enjoyment of 79 & 80

Zee

They live in Indiana I believe so check that time zone

Zee

Big fact! I’ve always use to joke with friends that Shippuden started in this arc 😂. The power scaling was wild so early on

Ji-pi Doyon

Extending pole is part of the Monkey king legend in the Journey to the East books...Dragonball took part of that character to build Goku so it's more a rip of the book...

Edo

This is the episode that got me into Naruto. My friend was like, 'you like good animation? hold my beer". and he put this ep on. And my highschool Sakuga obsessed mind was blown out. Glad you guys appreciated the beauty of this ep!!!!!! PS kudos to Chris for immediately noticing the ep's change in quality within the first ...10 seconds??

Jt Smith

I would say that’s kinda unnecessary because there’s no “real” spoilers in the OP and I think they might be looking forward to a more hype intro

The Anbu that are watching them fight are supposed to be around medium-high level Jonin and they are amazed at the level of combat they're seeing rn. Shows you the massive difference in skill level when you go from regular Jonin to a Kage level shinobi.

Zee

After finishing this reaction, I’m even more hyped for 72.

Johnny Blue

Good job for noticing the animation Chris. I hope you keep this up and notice something else in the next episode.

Anonymous

Hopefully 3 episodes

PS

This was when I knew Naruto was the most ridiculous show. Bringing back dead corpses which haven't rotted away to fight but no one has managed to invent the automobile.

KP

Welcome to fictional shows retard...... Imagine complaining about an anime not having cars lol

Ryan

One is enough this week, no worries, don’t over work yourself Nahid

For big fights, they bring in an animator named Norio Matsumoto. The fights he's done so far that you've already seen: Sasuke vs Orochimaru (Forest of Death) and Rock Lee v. Gaara (Chuunin Exam Tourney Round 1).

Zee

I thought EP 19 was him too? Guess I was wrong

PS

With the copyright removals Naruto reactions have been getting recently it's better to upload just one episode a week

Arsalan

*Sprinkles Holy Water on PS* THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! BEGONE HEATHEN!

PS, why are you here if you don’t like Naruto?

Kinda funny considering how things escalate in the shippuden.

Hazy Skies

We have officially entered the more serious part of the series. Parts that have a deeper impact on future events and character development. This is the beginning of the reason I love the Naruto series. It truly is a masterpiece.

Jeddxh

I’m just waiting for the character reveal in 80...fav character comin up

Zee

That’s why I hope they skip the OP for 78 & 79

Ji-pi Doyon

Also same thing with the Nine-Tail fox, it's part of ancient japanese tales...you could be surprise the amount of references !

Joshua

Yes the mind fuck begins lol this brings back memories and can’t wait to enjoy it with y’all.

DAki

You’re comment doesn’t make sense. Like read it back please. I wanted to answer assuming I understand what you mean.

That Voldemort impression cracked me the hell up.

Adam Vialpando

I know the art style was badass this episode but it is also my least favorite trend in anime. I know the studios save money and use it for the big fights but do they have to make the difference in quality so obvious? It's jarring sometimes. This is really prevalent in the big shonen anime.

NMD

You think this music is good? Just wait for Shippuden.

Keep It Zen

Unfortunately yes, it’s hard to make a whole episode in just 1 week. There’s voice acting, translating “subs” ... Storyboarding, Key Animating, In-between animating, Backgrounds, Colors & Effects, probably some more steps that I’m missing.... and all that has to be done before 1 week because Editing is probably the last part and very time consuming. I think TV studios need the episode at least 1 day before hand too. So in reality they have 6 days to do all that. For these big ones they bring a shit ton more freelancers with the budget they save for these episodes, and probably put in a FUCKTON of unpaid overtime hours. The conditions of animators in Japan is well-documented for being horrendous, even to this day with many more employee protection laws in place, and better technology to ease the workload, imagine back then. Episodes like these are the result of going the extra 100 miles. For the show’s purpose, I think it’s better that Big Episodes get most of shine and have the others be mediocre, instead of all episodes being slightly better, but having the ones that need to be great not stand out as much. It’s kind of annoying when people complain that not every episode is as well-done as this one when that is practically impossible with a weekly anime format, and very detrimental health wise to many people in that animation business.

Nick

lol music is step down in Shippuden thou.. if Naruto was a 10 Shippuden would be a 9

William Pahau

100 bucks Liech Tea doesnt even watch these reactions he just searching for my name 😂😂

William Pahau

Fun fact , lord second created the anbu black ops, the ninja acdemy , and the sewer systems in konoha , and lord first created the foundations of the village.

That kunai rana was using is sharp af

Orochimaru scared me as a kid

Anonymous

oh no not the hokage wife LOL!

rickie woodson

what is up with the animation???

Anonymous

Every now and then for select episodes, they will bring in additional freelance animators to make the episode that much more special. Recall Zabuza vs. Gato and Rock Lee vs. Gaara.

rickie woodson

not digging the animation. i assume it changes since i dont remember it looking like this in later episodes. its very doughy and chibi

Nick

you're bugging the animation is 10x better and a lot more smooth.. If you mean the art style than yea you've got to sacrifice some detail to get more frames.

The Pebble

Besides being a snake guy, what the fuck does Lord Moldebutt have in common with Orochi? I can't for the life of me see why they draw such comparisons besides the snake master shit.

Robert Quill

they're both obsessed with immortality and they both have some crazy fanatics under them

PS

I like the characters in Naruto but too many of the fights in Naruto are dragged out and ridiculous.

Anonymous

This is one of the best episodes of the series. Love this shit

John

I do not remember all of this happening LOL like this is a lot more fighting than I remember.. And Orochimaru is an anomaly you never know what he could be he is a bad as female though.. Also these are reanimation ninja so they aren't using there full power just so you know

Anonymous

Fun fact 'Saru' means monkey in Japanese and the Third Hokage is part of the Sarutobi clan. His summoning being a monkey was destined.

xsithspawnx

Such a great episode. The first real peak at a Kage level battle that the show gives you with some of the best animation in the show so far.

botanbutton

Reboot was my SH*T!!!

Brodie Vickers

Nah I’m pretty sure Philosophers Stone pre-dates Naruto by a couple of years. Twist it, Pull it, Pop it, EAT it.

adam

sarutobi sensei!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

adam

i love orichis theme its so bamf
