.N.A.R.U.T.O Episodes 30-33

🤫😈

Comments

Shippuden World building is definitely not better. And 80% of OP main cast being comic relief? Yeah you definitely didnt watch OP.

Big Brother 2

Please don't do that all night challenge again. It wasn't fun to watch, because you guys really weren't enjoying the show, because you were tired, cranky and sleepy.

Ptrn6884!

I've been listening to Naruto's soundtrack for 15+ years. It's one of the reasons I love this show

Soham Jambhekar

and then she proceeds to bite a hand and get cte lmao

Can’t touch this Stone

Beetlemoose

Lmao, the "this song is good" on Sadness and Sorrow. It's iconic, it's legendary as far as OST go. Incredibly recognisable and nostalgic.

Faris Alamin

Nah they'd win

bondbond53

they said over the weekend

Liam Murphy

anyone know when we are getting another Naruto post?

Adri

with both, for og alone though if they stick to 8-10 episodes a week, they should probably be done in a few months

Nobel - Karlsefni

yall need to find a sub with better subs

Desiree Retterath

I forgot how cool Orochimaru is. He honestly might be the most interesting character in this series. Dude steals every single scene.

Kyosuke Kagami

I’d argue 50% of one piece is boring. 80% of the main characters are just comic relief. At least characters actually die in Naruto. I saw a dude with bird powers fly into a nuke to sacrifice himself and he walked out with a broken leg.

Alec Raatz

Na, shippuden is better. The villains, the fights, the pacing, the story, world building, and speeches are all better. People put shippuden down solely bc of fillers. But if they skip fillers it’s not an issue then

Alec Raatz

Disagree. OG Naruto is way better. Like you said, Shippuden has a couple of arcs that are goated, but overall is very inconsistent and has a lot of low points.

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

But like what's the point of watching boring stuff episode after episode to watch like few arcs that are actually great. I know this because I have watched over 1000 episodes of One Piece.

Sasha

You can't use plot armour as a downside in a shonen anime lol. Naruto, also has its fair share. Objectively speaking Shippuden has way more terrible arcs than One Piece.

Andy Larkin

buddy i've seen you complaining about naruto every other post get a life

svan svan

It only goes downhill at the *very end*. Shippuden is goated for a couple arcs alone. The pacing issues and unbelievable plot armor of one piece makes it very hard to get into.

Alec Raatz

Ehh, I disagree. When you get into shippuden the show really goes downhill. The show you're describing is One Piece.

Andy Larkin

Sub vs dub is a big debate but for me neither one is better 100%. You could argue that one is better overall but each does certain things better in my opinion. For example specific lines by certain characters convey more power/emotion in dub/sub than the other. Overall it just depends on your taste and how you prefer certain characters to act. For example in Shippuden some of the villains deliver goated speeches and sound badass as hell in dub (like a certain speech about cycles or the speeches about the world by the goated DUO later on). But the same happens in sub just with a different nuance/style.

Thomas

Aye, Thanks for the correction!

Asbjørn Kennedy

Why not?

J t

Atsushi Wakabayashi (in-house) and Norio Matsumoto (freelance but close collaborator with AW) are two of the main staff for Naruto's standout action episodes. But you're right it is a thing with long running shows like Naruto where these directors are asked to work on an important moment or fight once every 20-40 or so episodes, since creating episodes like these take the most amount of time.

dy

Naruto just exponentially gets better the more you watch in my opinion. I’ve seen a decent amount of anime and I can see that this anime has by far the biggest payoff for watching.

Alec Raatz

Dude forgets how many more naruto episodes there are. Math is hard huh?

Alec Raatz

(Sorry for the long reply), but I completely agree with your take. In shounen manga/anime, where the audience is primarily young, it becomes even MORE important to write strong, interesting and relatable female characters (luckily we are seeing more of this in new gen anime). Naruto is a story with significant influence, especially on younger males. Therefore, handling the portrayal of female characters with care is essential, given of how impressionable a young audience can be. We've seen the negative effects of poorly written female characters, such as Sakura, have on young men. So having well-developed female characters will contribute depth and complexity to the story while breaking misconceptions and adding representation and inclusion. Furthermore, by exploring their personalities, motivations, and story arcs, they become more than being just plot devices or love interests for male characters, but instead offer fresh and unique perspectives and dynamics. Depicting women as capable, independent, and complex individuals is not only beneficial in dispelling harmful misconceptions, but could also help the prevention of having such misogynistic views. Often, the primary focus of main female characters in Naruto revolves around seeking love and attention from their male counterparts. While the pursuit of love is a valid goal, when it becomes the only purpose or role behind a character, regardless of gender, it results in one-dimensional and uninteresting characters.

are you guys uploading today?

IreonnaOreo

done by the end of the year with naruto or naruto + shippuden? or wdym?

maxdemian1006

cool story bro

maxdemian1006

it's usually thursday, no? but last week they uploaded on tuesday, so i'm confused

Poragami

usually on Wednesdays

Brady

couldn't care less for Naruto or FMAB, when are we getting HotD tho?

Poragami

What does age rating have anything to do with how well the story is? ATLA is “for kids” too, but it has one of the best stories ever. but honestly Naruto seems to go just as dark as FMAB in some parts. Also it doesn’t really matter, but I don’t think it’s a minority opinion. Naruto is pretty popular so I’m sure a lot of people favor it over FMAB

Dio

I concur. Ultimately is up to them, but it is a lot to episodes to get through for just one upload a week.

Ulises Flores(Uliee.)

Cannon’s face expression to Ino at 28:23 HAD ME WEAK

dia

rewatching with you guys, i'm reminded how good the fight choreography and animation is for something that old. When the animation quality dips so low you know there's an epic fight coming lol

LL

Absolutely loved the reaction.🥷 The pacing was pretty bad earlier but props to you guys for keeping an open mind. Loved how your eyes lit up for sasuke vs orochimaru and how you guys try to pick up on the lore of the world and not just see what's on the screen.

Ali

@springdeerling Alright, we get your frustration but could you please refrain from spoiling the show for these guys.

HNadR

Kishimoto certainly cannot write women, but there’s a difference between being incompetent at writing women and actively hating women. Are the female characters in Naruto poorly written? Yes, very. Do many of them adhere to sexist tropes? Yes. Is Kishimoto himself sexist because of this? No. Is Kishimoto sexist? Maybe, I honestly wouldn’t know. Not saying that he couldn’t be, but I think calling him a misogynist over the writing of Naruto is unjustified. I’d be open to hear why that isnt the case though.

Asbjørn Kennedy

12:12 jackson fucking roasting sakura's life lmao

Apple

What a lovely subjective, minority opinion you have there. I don't even care how good naruto is, fact is these boys are SLACKING HEAVILY on the fmab uploads. If they hate it so much, just get it out the way instead of dragging it out. Its the shortest show they've watched and has taken the longest by a mile.

Farrell

Objectively it's not though, naruto is literally for kids. Fmab is actually a mature story and therefore will always be better, especially as it's executed really well from a storytelling perspective. In any case, the issue is with the frequency of the uploads and how wildly inconsistent they are. 33 naruto eps in a month.. it took 5 months to get the same for fmab. These boys cannot prioritise properly which should be taken seriously when running a subscription based service.

Farrell

Most of the women's main drives and plots are about the men in their life, not anything regarding what they want to do or strive to be. I do agree that they're literally just there for the male characters. And if it's not for the men in their life's they're literally just... Idk another nobody character that's just there to fill out the roster. Sakura's undying love for Sasuke is insufferable and her ending up with him makes no sense. Same w Hinata and Naruto. Didn't the author even say that he felt bad for Hinata so he made her get w Naruto in the end as like a reward for her being so hopelessly in love w him? Neither of these characters pay them any mind. I don't even understand Naruto's want over Sasuke at the end of og Naruto and throughout Shippuden. They didn't really seem to have that much of a good friendship at all

spring deerling

LMAO you have no reading comprehension if you believe the characters and story in Naruto are better than the ones in FMAB. The female characters in Naruto are a complete joke and so is Naruto and Sasukes friendship. Narusasu is a way better ship than them being with ANY of the female characters.

spring deerling

plsss

Jacob Goldsmith

why u spoiling

Jacob Goldsmith

mckay after chunin is when the filler filter comes into play a lot so we can reach shippuden in an appropriate time.

Jacob Goldsmith

omg yess I was literally about to comment this I’m so sad they’ll never hear “what a drag” it’s literally what made me like his character 10x more.

Jyle

i know, it's crazy, but this is part of why I stopped engaging and interacting with the naruto fandom (or simply shounen) for years. it's just men who have no concern or care to listen to women when we explain why kishimoto is a misogynist.

crissoopshii

such a good batch!!

Jyle

just because there are female characters in this world that have a certain amount of power does not make them well written. it's about the complexity of the character. even tsunade (who is written a bit better in some aspects) is still reduced to having big boobs and an attitude. i think men should refrain from being in my replies to preach about sexism because you lost the plot from the beginning.

crissoopshii

just because it's a shounen that doesn't mean that female characters should be written badly?? hello?? some of you need to pick up some shoujo asap

crissoopshii

Naruto has a better story, villains, characters, and fight scenes. oh and OST. so yea, FMAB is mid in comparison

Dio

Lmao chuunin in anime sent me 🤣🤣 But actually, and Cannon I love you and I might actually give you chuunin in shounen anime despite not having finished any of the big classics yet, but respectfully, the fact that your guys experience can be roughly summed up as shounen type shows + studio ghibli + silent voice and your name means that when it comes to anime in general you are genin at best 🤣 And looking at how the polls usually go you guys probably wont get to watch anything but relatively typical shounen for many more months 😂🥲. Regarding the episodes the animation and direction for episode 30 cooked. It’s usually how it goes in Naruto, that every once in a while they go hard on an episode. I’m pretty sure that they outsourced those eps and made sure for there to be enough of a budget to make it epic, which is also why the artstyle is so inconsistent with the usual episodes. This is the case for some of the best episodes in the series tho, so there is definitely some to look forward to

Asbjørn Kennedy

No it's costing me £5.50 a month so not quite free. Guess this is the intelligence of the average naruto enjoyer.

Farrell

I'd be down for 50 ep per week

WorseGuy

Mid if your brain is small, sure.

Farrell

FMAB is mid anyways

Dio

How can ppl in your comment look at a manga with nearly zero well written female character and say it’s not about misogyny? And having the majority of its audience males(which is far from truth) doesn’t justify making a genre misogynistic?? Kishimoto is a widely agreed misogynist that I thought ppl all agreed to this point….

Paffu

so...ae they just gonna continue with naruto all the way?

Matis

Also, the show is literally a shounen, which by definition is marketed towards young males - that's literally the target market of the show, of course the writing is gonna focus more on men, cuz that's what the majority of the readers (manga) relate to since they are mostly young men.

lololol

It's not about misogyny lmao. I'm not gonna spoil anything for the geks, but you should know that there are A TON of powerful female ninjas in this series WITH high positions in the world. It's just that this specific female character (Sakura) is purposely written to be this useless and annoying character that everyone hates - and that's OKAY cuz that's her CHARACTER. But don't make it about misogyny lmao when there are tons of female characters that are strong and are held to a high regard throughout the series. But I do get your point tho,,, anyways, L sakura <3

lololol

crying is free

Chrisiyyi

Tsunade was really well written (at least in the span of her arc) and so was Kushina imo, but yea its really unfortunate that theyre the exceptions not the rule

BolarPear

Not every female character in Naruto has been written badly, I actually can’t think of one. Sakura is not dumb, actually she is pretty smart and they tell us that all the time. She is just not as strong as Naruto, Saskue or her classmates. I think the biggest issue we all have with Sakura is, that she lives in her own world, where her biggest problem is seeking Saskues attention/love and would do anything (e.g. ending her friendship with her first friend) to do that - but then again she is 12 years old

Jengit

@karlsefni I'm liking it wayy more than OG. They've toned down a lot of the things that I found quite bad and really improved other parts, without giving any spoilers lol. I'm still only in the beginning but I'm excited to get further in 🫡

Mia Malvik

sakura is the definition of what misogyny can do both to the creation of a character and how that further can perpetuate sexist notions in the anime community. she and all the women in naruto are SO badly written but with so much potential. i don't blame people for hating sakura or feeling like she is useless, but growing up with naruto and now on my 3rd rewatch, it just pains me to see how she is written as a tool for emphasizing the boy's power, as well as how the only driving force in her life is her love life (which again dumbs down her character by making it seem like women are only capable of being mothers and nurturing beings). it's literally just sad because even her powerful moments of cutting her hair and literally blossoming are not as impactful due to her constant inability to evolve past a supporting character

crissoopshii

3 episodes of Naruto, don't even think we're averaging 1 episode of FMAB a week at this point.....

Farrell

Hahaha didnt know Sakura was this annoying. I dont know whyyyy tho i was watching thia when I was a kid but i ddnt felt this way hahaha maybe because thr Sakura in Shippuden was imprinted on me and I forgot her childhood hahahha i love her tho

corLeonis

You guys really forget that they were sooo young 😭 they were like 8-11 when that happened

Michaela Igl

The hair thing is something that only people in Japan understand. For us it may sound a little weird but in Japan cutting your hair like that is crazy. It’s insane. In Japan hair has a great meaning

Michaela Igl

I've always been in the "Sakura can be annoying but isn't that bad" camp and remembered her having a decent moment in these episodes, but after seeing the childhood flashback again with Ino, actually Sakura you're a punk. Ino went out of her way to befriend you and give you confidence, then you push her away over a boy that isn't even talking to either of you.

Nick K

Last Shippuden arc? Garbage.

Osvaldo

It’s mid to ok at best. An insane Dub is Yu Yu Hakusho

Osvaldo

Sakura get behind me 😭

Legendarygamer

agreed, at least for og naruto, the script for sub gets better in shippuden. Regardless of the translation though, for the majority of characters they're voice actors are good in both sub & dub

Nobel - Karlsefni

it really does suck how badly the sub translation ruins so many of the big moments, this is the one show where the dub fits the characters and the moments so much better... only naruto's dub voice is a little annoying early on

Frosty

Meh. I try to understand that he's been mentally manipulated since childhood (which might excuse some of his more choice actions later on), but even then, I can't hop on the Sasuke boat. I'm a more rational type of person, always have been. So growing up and watching how Sasuke handled things at times irked me.

Alison

I just like how in dub Shikamaru's saying is, "What a drag." His monotone English VA is a lot funnier than the sub. The sub just doesn't do his absolute disdain for everything justice. I was forced to watch the end of Shippuden in subbed since I couldn't wait for the dubbed to be released. I ended up enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would. But having grown up on the dubbed version, it will always be my fav just for that sole reason.

Alison

Bro we had no reason to be watching this as kids on cartoon network. Rewatching it though I have a new appreciation for the music scores.

Nathan

Sorry Cannon, you are nowhere near chuunin rank in anime. You haven't even qualified for the exam yet. Have to watch many more anime <3

Mysterious Figure

FINALLY! DATTEBAYO!

lololol

Where's my brotherhood lol

LuvStarburst

whats the schedule going to look like for Naruto moving forward? if you guys do 8-10 episodes a week assuming your skipping most of the filler (there's some worth watching that I'm sure people will mention once you get there) you guys should be done by the end of the year so will it be around that range or a little less or even a little more?

Nobel - Karlsefni

That’s all the more reason they should watch it in dub the other three are confused 😭

Juany

if they stick to two batches of four/five a week they should be done by the end of the year, so 8-10 episodes weekly would be pretty solid

Nobel - Karlsefni

FIRST

Lukash

This might have been said already, but in Japan, there is a lot more significance to hair than in the US. To the Japanese, hair is more than just that - it symbolizes one's identity and personality (at least in the early 2000's it still did). Long hair equates beauty and feminity. In ancient times, cutting off one's hair was an act of purification or renewal after hardship or illness. In modern times, girls will cut their hair after a breakup or loss. It signifies starting anew and breaking away from bad habits. Sometimes in anime, these moments, while insignificant to foreigners, actually depict Japanese culture in a way that only the Japanese (or those who study or live it) are aware of. As a child, watching this, I was mostly unmoved at this scene because I would often have my hair cut to my shoulders after having let it grow long (it grew super fast). But when reading a manga (that I can't remember the name of), it explained the significance behind Japanese women cutting their hair and I finally understood what this moment meant for Sakura. It's not just Sakura getting out of a tough situation, but it's her letting go of her tight grasp on staying feminine in favor of becoming a ninja her teammates can rely on.

Alison

bro im a sub guy for all other anime but for Naruto yall gotta try the dub its insane.

Regardless, the two who are fans of the anime have clearly seen it in sub and that's how they enjoy it (as they should). I'm all for them to keep that up.

Rayanh LaNansha

You guys are in it now get ready for the most average anime you'll ever see. I get it though, my pal dragged me through it aswell xD

Beetlemoose

Facts the dub has A1 voice acting and the translation is actually good. Like when Orochimaru explained why he wanted Sasuke in sub it didn’t make sense to any of the guys. In dub it would be explained more clearly.

Liam

CANNON "Kill her" LMFAOOOOOO

jul ☽

I really wonder how many hours in row are these guys doing this time lol

Ly

Even if that’s the case, 400 is still a lot.

Ulises Flores(Uliee.)

Only problem with the end if Naruto is of the thematic variety: naruto is supposed to define what it means to work hard and stand on what you say but was basically destined to be who he was through a prophecy made hundreds of years before his birth

Muhamad Jallow

To kinda answer y'alls question about the swirl on Guy Sensei's jacket and all of the Jonin jackets, it's an important symbol related to a certain clan that would be a bit of a spoiler to reveal right now!

Guy

Yo Thomas can you wait until they get to the end of shippuden in about three years? Thanks

Guy

How you liking shippuden so far?

Nobel - Karlsefni

Also as someone who once suffered Vertigo for a week due to some messed up ear liquid, lemme say that what Rock Lee is going through during this fight absolutely SUCKS irl 🤣 I couldn’t walk down the hall to the bathroom without falling over or look at a phone screen without vomiting, so the fact that he can even attempt to run and fight is insane! I had to lie in bed for a week with a pillow over my eyes just to stop the room spinning, that guy is a beast 🙏

MissJodles

fr the sub is still good but dub is actually peak voice acting

Richard Jacobsen

Love your guys comments right at the start about the animation in the Sasuke fight; even for a 2002 show, Naruto has some amazing animation, choreography and storyboarding! There’s some real incredible industry talent involved in some of these early episodes :)

Goldy

its more like 400 cuz they dont watch filler

Chakra

Yes the dub is better and they can’t even keep up with the dialogue for sub right away 😭😭😭

Juany

SPOILERS WARNING—For people who watched Shippuden already, what do you think of the last arc? I know it’s controversial but for me it ties in the theme of “restoring love” perfectly. The reincarnations that fought in order to protect love, the generations of conflict caused by different views of what “world peace/love” meant. For example one masked man who was driven by his desire to protect love: https://youtu.be/NuqOBuQUTG0?si=_B9vuGt7IH87AM6N

Thomas

His recovery was swift🙏🏻

Jed

Yes

Juany

Nope

Coen

Normally on wednesdays

Rayanh LaNansha

Brig is finally out of the ER 🙏

McKay Carter

Nah

McKay Carter

They fumbled so hard by watching sub

Juany

what about House of the Dragon? does anybody know when they upload the next episode?

Dodo

I think I share the same sentiment that we don’t want you guys staying super late and getting burned out watching Naruto. But maybe more reactions sprinkled during the week would be awesome because it is 700+ episodes. If it’s 3 episodes per upload and one upload only on Sundays or one day a week is going to take forever to finish Naruto just throwing it out there.

Ulises Flores(Uliee.)
