Kimimaro's backstory is so sad, can't help but to empathize with him.. especially with him being an extremely powerful fighter!

U guys should do 132,133, and 134 together :)

Saith Uchiha

I’m so hyped and yeah tbh I think Kimimaro is one of the most underrated characters in all of naruto I personally like his kekkei genkai

SWAGxMAGICIAN

You guys should really do 132, 133, and 134 together!!

Michael

Poor Kimimaro 😭😭 He’s still one of my fave anime characters of all time and is one of the best “tragic” character tropes done well ♥️

Zac Brown

Def gotta do 132 - 134 together!

Overbyte

Honestly Ron, write down moments and when you finish shippuden go back and experience them and decide if you want the tattoo cause if you get them as you go your whole back will be Naruto themed lmao

Saith Uchiha

Michelle is not disgusting it’s cool af

Saith Uchiha

Ik I posted a lot but kimimaro literally is shown to have killed a Kage (Garra, Temari, konkuro, father) sorry if I misspelled but shows he is one of the Goats I watched this fight when I was prob 8-9 years old I really admire Kimimaro. He is one of the strongest characters in this verse orochimaru literally says it was thanks to him that they were able to kill a KAGE. I wish he had more screen time. Especially with such a unique kekkei genkai. :,(

If You guys liked Naruto very much then you will surely like ״Black Clover״ very much!!

Francisco Luís Sega (chico)

I love to see you guys theorizing about the symbolism and everything is Naruto. Loving the journey you guys are going through 🫶🏻

Saith Uchiha

I agree but maybe after naruto I “predict” One piece “ will be against Black clover and Ik OP will win based on fan base. I’ve watched both and read manga. Personally I do believe they should start w Black Clover but polls will destroy that

RorotheShadow

It's going to be quite a while before you see the characters as adults. In Shippuden they are teenagers for now. You still have to experience their beautiful puberty 😂😂 And I would recommend you to watch the episodes 132, 133 and 134 together

RorotheShadow

Yeah, they're really should start with Black Clover then, because One Piece is so fucking long, in my opinion

Ronen

I feel like not enough people talk about how vindictive and manipulating Kabuto was to Kimimaro by constantly saying he lost his purpose or he isn't being useful, basically hasting his life to the grave by making him feel like he has to be the one to bring Sasuke to replace him at the cost of his life. How sad is that. He was used all the way until the end and they made it clear he needs to be useful.

Randy Mukadi

Kimimaro is defo underrated. One of my favourite characters in the series

Ronen

You have to give it up to the script writer for that meeting. Kimimaro meeting with Haku and the line "he has the same eyes as me", what it means, I feel strikes at the core meaning of Naruto. Kimimaro, I felt embodied this. Haku too. The other great line in this episode by Gaara the philosopher - "Even the companionship of an evil person is preferable to loneliness." That line hit me like a nuke. Humans are social beings. I was able to unlock the empathy in me I never knew I had after realizing all this. I don't hate Kimimaro, I hate Orochimaru for his twisted reasons took advantage of multiple people like Kimimaro. Kimimaro was a legend and had potential to change a lot had it not been for his disease and upbringing

Davis Dambergs

In regards to Orochimaru and his seals/marks. He doesnt have any actual control over the people. It is more like a worshipping/fanatic relationship. Sasuke is the exception where he obviously has agreed to seek him out to help him with his revenge. As you are in Shippuden already, you will probably know a bit more, depending on how far you are. But just in case, ill stop here.

okay striker

yes, and also the fact that for some people, it can be much easier and more fulfilling to live for someone else, rather themselves

Martin Camacho

Ooof those last few seconds just gave me chills 🥶

ra-TH_

Y'all ever consider doing shipudden in English dub? Literally the only dub I'd ever recommend.. you could actually pay more attention then instead of reading but I'll admit I'm being selfish bc some of the voices are just peak. Keep killin it though, I'm watching several with y'all regardless 🤘🤙

Justin

It's pretty funny how they keep thinking these genin characters are the strongest in the show. Garra, Neji, Naruto, Sasuke, etc aren't even near as strong as people like Kakashi and Guy you two. That's why they are Genin.

Ronen

Kimimaro took that to the extreme. He literally body ravaged with disease, incapable of physically moving, mentally willed his body to move, faced prominent ninja like Gaara and still almost won, all this knowing he was to deliver a replacement for the job he originally wanted. If that's not selfish, I don't know what is. If Kimimaro was written as a good guy or one of the main cast that story would have everyone in tears. I could gush over Kimimaro all day. He, I feel, doesn't get the credit he deserves. He essentially was a secret boss with how powerful he was and his appearance as the pen ultimate villain of the Naruto part one series. Knew him for so little yet he had such an impact. He was not a one off in my book.

Ian

I suggest you guys watch dub for shippuden, some of the greatest dub voices in anime I’m sure y’all would love. Please consider and love the content

WaB_ Bigvai

Ugh the translation was sooooo bad in this episode. In the end what Gaara really said was "perhaps the companionship of even an evil person is preferable than loneliness" that line made me feel even more bad for Kimimaru. Poor guy just wanted someone anyone to be his companion 😔 he's literally Naruto if Naruto never found anyone

Refrain

"Perhaps the companionship of even an evil person is preferable to loneliness" - Gaara 😔

Frankie

Wait so if they’re skipping all filler does that mean only 4 more weeks til shippuden?!?!

WaB_ Bigvai

Yea lol I think they forgot how easily Sasuke got bodied by Itachi lol my man broke Sasuke's wrist with one hand lol

WaB_ Bigvai

Yea to me there's only two animes that are better in dubbed. Naruto because the subbed translation is horrible, the worst that I have ever seen lol. The other is DBZ/DBS because the fighting noises are unbearable lol. There's two animes that I feel like are equally good in subbed and dubbed which are HxH and Akame Ga Kil. The rest of the animes are better in subbed. Just my opinion

Ronen

before stopping with that same hand a killing precision attack aiming straight for him with ease

Ronen

No, I think you have it backwards. He IS Naruto. Naruto did find people who he could believe in. Same for Kimimaro except "Perhaps even the companionship of an evil person is preferrable to loneliness..." Kimimaro was just found by the wrong people... Actually Gaara said as much that Naruto (or people like Naruto) is the same as Kimimaro: fighting for someone they revere.

Jboo

132-134

Malik Ford

Although I agree that Naruto shippuden dubbed is the best dubbed I’ve heard they should stick to sub

Devron Love

Not sure if you guys are the whole team sub over team dub, but I’d suggest dub go Shippudden, a lot of errors are in the translation so you pick up on more in the dub plus Naruto dub is great, just a suggestion, I know you’ve already started Shippudden though, but if you don’t mind dub, you will not have to worry about poor translation

botanbutton

They already reached Shippuden so I don't think they'll move to English dubs.

defnotdai

I agree 100%, the dub is goated. One of the best in anime. I wish they'd give it a try or do a poll, but they've already started watching shippuden. Not that they can't still switch, but I don't think they will sadly. Especially since they're already used to the sub voices. But Idk, the speeches and passion just hit different in the dub.

botanbutton

I honestly don't remember these episodes 😭 They gave Kimimaro a backstory? lmao

botanbutton

Uh, no. What was translated is exactly what Gaara said. You're probably just used to the dub's script.

defnotdai

Would you guys consider the dub for Shippuden. It's iconic and one of the best dubs in anime. There's just so many great moments and memes. We wouldn't ask if it was shitty, trust me.

botanbutton

How are there errors in the translations for the sub? I've never seen them.

Arz.09

their powerscaling is all over the place in most shows lol

Joise Cepeda

Hey guys!! Just a reminder that Michelle and Ron are already on shippuden so 132-134 will not be reacted together as they have their reactions already recorded. (Mod)

Joise Cepeda

Another note I would like to add is that if we were to put their reactions to those 3 it would be a 4 episode upload since they do double episode reaction per vid so I am not sure if they will end up doing that or not but I can always ask 🤷🏽‍♀️ (mod)

Maruey Coelho Paranhos

I loved seeing you guys discussing about the statues and what they might mean .When I first watched it I didn't care, but in the end, it really does make a difference to notice. :)

Mystic_ramen

That would be a cool way to sign off to OG Naruto but whatever is best for the channel works too. Has been an enjoyable watch along so far.

Gabriel

It is very important that you guys watch Kakashi Gaiden before Shippuden. It was adapted in episode 119 and 120 of Shippuden, but it was created between Naruto Classic and Shippuden in the manga. It will give you guys lot of context regarding Kakashi’s behaviors and mannerisms seen in Naruto Classic, his past, why he is the way he is and more information of Naruto’s lore.

Ronen

He's confusing translation for error. It's the reason why the sub and dub may have a similar meaning but overall are differently said. Usually the sub is closer to a literal translation while the dub takes more liberties. To understand the job of a translator you need to know that a translator takes one language and makes it make sense in another language. So dubs not being a direct translation can often be translated however the translator thinks it needs to be translated to best fit that material not necessarily being a direct translation. But usually, the meaning remains the same with little changes in nuance as a byproduct. This episode being one such case: Gaara sub: "People can't defeat their loneliness" Gaara dub: "Perhaps even the companionship of an evil person is preferable to lonelineess." The sub is almost an exact literal translation of the Japanese: "Hito wa kodoku ni katenai" (People can't win against loneliness) The dub can be argued to be a more artistic and subjective take on the sub. Translation is an art. Neither is per say wrong. It's a preference.

Devron Love

I’m not confusing them. I meant what I said. There are some errors as well, not just preferential translation and meanings. One of the first few times I watched Shippudden through I watched it with a Japanese friend of mine and she pointed out many times where the translation for the sub was just wrong. As I speak Korean fluently there are many times when watching a drama or movie that the translation is just wrong, I can see how they try to capture the essence and nuance of some of the words/meaning but in some cases it’s just plain incorrect. That’s what I’m referencing

It’s just the classic “all dub is bad” take.

Alex

If naruto is already one of your favorites then shippuden will leave you in another dimension lol

Peak

yea but naruto shippuden is amazing tbh

Jboo

He’d prob be in shippuden if he lived

Jboo

Na they all adults in shippuden 17 especially in this era

Jboo

It’s so bad it makes me want to cry but the worst powerscaling they’ve had so far is hunter hunter smh

Clint

lets go fam

Emil Yi

Yo, you got that Naruto shirt from Target LOL. I bought the same one 2 weeks back.

Michael

Did you guys start with beginning of Shippuden aka episode 119/120?

LivvyB

One of my favorite fights! It’s hard to believe that Kimimaro was only like 15 years old when he died and what made it so sad to me was he died with such blind devotion to Orochimaru, was even willing to,let him take over his body where Orochimaru could have cared less about him, he was just used for his abilities and nothing more!

To To

Sorry but where is Arcane ? Did I missed something ?

Ronen

Ok, I see your point. I can see that happening. Translation is really never one-to-one every time. Some things you can't properly give the full nuance meaning between language. Either that or they just flat out got it wrong.

SadLeche

They’re already in Shippuden probably episode 6 or something.

Saith Uchiha

Think if bro masted the 8 gates his taijustu is honestly so refined and graceful

Saith Uchiha

Commented above there’s 3 characters in naruto who are very underrated won’t say the other 2 but Kimimaro def one of them

SirGeel

i overall just enjoy japanese voice acting over english but ive seen both. Naruto has one of the better Dubs

Josh

You may not know who the one statue is rn. But you will

kike Acosta

Finally I decided to be a patreon member... Out off all the reaction channels that a see on YouTube... You guys are the first that I pay Patreon ! Much love from Colombia 🇨🇴

Jordan

Definitely stick to sub it's not bad but sub definitely better va apart from some iconic scenes that are just as good sub and dub any errors are minimal if I'm crunchy they pretty accurate

Malik FN

I would love some naruto movie reactions i cant be the only one

Gabriel

Yeah, I know. They should stop and watch Kakashi Gaiden before continuing.

Alex Chng

Likewise, my first paid subscription and it will be my last...and to be honest, my wife is pretty upset about my only subscription as she's not an anime fan. Still, I'll support you guys cuz I really love you guys, especially Ron, as we share the same admiration for Gaara and good characters in Naruto

Phyllis

You will find out about those statues in future episodes. T-T

Gee Games

Kimimaro was my favorite in part 1 growing up

MARMAR

To be able to sympathize with kimimaru they really did his story well TnT
