[Premium Access] Naruto - Episode 135 + 220 - Group Reaction

We're here everyone. I can't believe we are at the end of this series! Can you believe that we started this almost exactly 1 year ago? I'm glad we decided to do the double drops and triple drops to watch this quicker. It has been a far more enjoyable experience since then! We're planning on doing the same for Shippuden once we start. Expect Shippuden to arrive on our Patreon no later than Feb 19, but it could be a week earlier!

HUGE SHOUTOUT to Keeping it Zen for editing this super cut of episodes 141, 142 and 220 for us!

135 - https://youtu.be/fCnlToTjfN4

141/142/220 Supercut - https://youtu.be/2iMM49K9F3w

Thanks so much for going on this journey with us. Naruto has definitely touched us with its characters and emotional story lines. We can't wait to jump into Shippuden! For the next few weeks enjoy some drops of FLCL one of the strangest yet most brilliant anime I've ever seen!

P.S. we're willing to do a poll for watching the Kakashi Gaiden episodes before Shippuden.

[Premium Access] Naruto - Episode 135 + 220 - Group Reaction

Nahh. But next week for sure.

nisarg

Possibly tomorrow then! Exciting!

PercussionFellow

How has it only been two weeks?? This is the longest month ever, I'm so excited for Shippuden

Lane Thomas

I can only assume that if there was a poll I've already missed it. But if Kakashi Gaiden is referring to 119 & 120 of Shippuden I'd 100% watch those before Shippuden. It was published before "Shippuden" (during the hiatus/time-skip) in the manga, and from what I can recall there's nothing extra added to the anime, so I think that'd definitely be the most effective placing. Before Shippuden. It's how it was intended and flows the best that way. IMO As others have mentioned though, since it's 119 and 120 of Shippuden, there are the intros and outros to look out for. But nothing in-episode.

Watching in the order the show presents makes certain things ridiculously obvious, so yeah, please watch it before. Just avoid the OP or outro.

PercussionFellow

They obv didn't have the akatsuki's voice actors sorted out yet lol. Pretty sure Kakashi and Iruka's voice actors just slightly changed their usual tone to read unnamed members lines :p

stephen

I have never commented here but I just wanted to say that you guys should watch Kakashi Gaiden before shippuden.

Rollie253

I shared in your sentiments about sakura too, Chris. I BELIEVE she redeems herself in Shippuden... but Goddamn you, Sasuke. Seacrest Out.

HIM

I second this.

Brianwop

Please watch kakashi gaiden before. It being placed between naruto and shippuden makes a lot more sense.

Aadit Doshi

In the manga, it happens after part 1, though.

GoldArthur

Kakashi gaiden happens in shippuuden ep 119

I vowed that I would maintain my pledge throughout the entirety of the Naruto run. Since you guys are taking a month off from it, before starting Shippuden, I'm going to drop my pledge for next month. Just know that it's not out of spite. It's just that I really need the money, and I'm just seizing on the technicality that you aren't doing Naruto next month to save the money, so that I won't be breaking my promise.

GoldArthur

I. Can't. Wait. Until y'all start Shippuden omg you don't even understand how excited I am to experience this series again after *years*.

Narutofreak94

I 100% agree with this

As a fan that grew up with Naruto and Naruto Shippuden for 10+ years, sub has adds more emotional weight for the watchers and characters rather than dub. The dub, I would say, is 90% consistent from the original source but like what others say, I agree that it falls off heavily later on the season. Would you guys rather feel emotional during emotional episodes or feel comfortable during the journey? Overall, its just my opinion. I support the decision you guys make!

Alt Mon

EVERYONE please vote yes to watching it before shippuden lol. To the ppl who watched the anime but didn’t read the manga: trust me when I say it felt right reading it before shippuden and helps enhance shippuden in subtle ways (I won’t give spoilers to explain what I mean but hopefully you get what I mean).

Please please watch Samurai Champloo during this break before Shippuden and after FLCL. I know you guys have heard this before but it is relatively short and sweet and it will undoubtedly become one of your favourites.

Prodigal Sun

In the manga Gaiden happened before part II so it really shouldn't spoil anything

Alex

idk doesnt kakashi gaiden spoil stuff for shippuden?

Shad Ow

Who the hell would want you guys to not watch kakashi gaiden?

Watch Kakashi Gaiden before Shippuden. For one, it follows the manga storyline. Secondly, it's a tale of Kakashi as a child. This lines up with the story so far because everyone are still kids. Lastly, it fits the tone of why Kakashi was trying to prevent Naruto and Sasuke from fighting.

Jin Thao

Mark Stein is right. Better watch Kakashi's backstory first you know.

Tim

Hell no, they must watch in the order that the author decided, not in the order the studio placed for TV show formats purposes. Watching it before Shippuden make less obvious something that I can't elaborate... It's important to watch in the manga order instead of the Anime order.

Mark Stein

No! Do not watch Kakashi Gaiden! What you´ll see there, you´ll get to watch in Shippuden! Just watch Shippuden as blindly as possible. That is my advise! The right time will come when you will know Kakashi story

Fred João

I think more people just find the japanese voice acting to be strictly better in terms of emotion and authenticity. I guess its a pain to read the subs but pro-sub people would rather do that and have the Normies see that, than have the english voice acting. Wont take much time to get used to and I think it would improve the quality of the show for them. In the end its up to the Normies though, so whatever we get is fine

David Mrugalski

YES, pleeeeaase do Kakashi Gaiden before Shippuden! It's not filler. And thank you so much for reacting to this show in the first place. ❤

Arianne Kay

Can’t wait for shippuden guys! See you genin in February!

Stephen Mailman

Definitely think you should either watch it or do a poll for Kakashi Gaiden before you start Shippuden. It was meant to be between the two "halves" of the story.

Jereco

Spoilers man they should be able to read there comments

Luke

Though I feel Shippuuden is reaching its peak early on. Like: After The fight with Sakura and the old lady against Akatsuki. Jirayas big Fight is also nice but everything else turns way too much into DBZ Shonen style. With energy blasts. and getting overly Big. Wished they kept the scale of fights more grounded. But def. enjoyable. and some of the best openings.

Rebel Pilot

"Who is worse than Orochimaru?" Oh my sweet summer child

Pedro

Now the real Story begins

Darryl

We need Shippuden now, tell Nahid I have a big bag of weed in Chicago if he needs it.

COREY Ervin Scott-Johnson

Yes

I might sound dumb for this but what is kakashi gaiden, is it the same thing as kakashi chronicles on Hulu ?

Xandanx

Gah! Part one has been delightful, can't wait for Shippuden.

Tye

And the manga has no character development? You could even say that everything that happens in the filler cannot be character development because it can't have any influence on what happens after the fillers...

Daniel Burgmann

Are you guys switching to the sub ?

Tom

If any of you guys really love this show you'll go back to watch the fillers by yourselves, even in shippuden. Character development is key.. for the feels :'(((

Dimitri Silva

do Kakashi Gaiden

Psyched for Shippuden. It has some pacing problems and I know a lot of people think part 1 is more consistent in quality overall, but almost all of my favorite moments happen in Shippuden It's definitely at it's best when it's full of pain

Alex

One reactor did it. It worked out fine for him

Zee

Lmao Ino is literally irrelevant compared to Sakura. Stop this cap

Zee

Don't get your hopes up for Sakura. Ino is still a better character than her. And that says a lot. Sakura is a level one in this and in Shippuden she gets to a lvl 10 while everyone else is at least a lvl 40. She gets what tsunade has but she still somehow has no use whatsoever majority of the time.

L

they said in one of the previous videos that Nahid was going away for a few weeks and they didn't want to start it without him

Cristina Totino

super excited for shippuden any specific reason it wont start until mid to late February though?

Michael O'Donnell

keeping it zen thanks boy for the edit !

Brownhokage

Dope man, cant wait for shippuden

IBOXATNIGHT23

Kakashi Gaiden first pleease, nobody ever listens to me when I tell them to.

MegaFreddy25- The former 3x Deadlock Patreon Champion who has RETURNED from Patreon locking my fucking subscription for a year

definitely do the movies honestly it's more for you guys than us they're gems

Lleon Swanston

I wouldnt say they are underestimating medical ninja, Its just they feel that having "all the women" be medical ninja is kind of a stereotype that the men fight, the women heal. They want the women to fight too thats why

Jessica

Well OBVIOUSLY they'd watch it at some point, it's part of the Shippuden anime canon episodes.

Logan

Totally agreed with the pacing part

Hank yang

On the note of sub versus dub, you guys as a group should decide for yourself. I am a passionate naruto fan, as is everyone who watches your reactions. That being said, I grew up watching part 1 on tv in english. The nostalgia is unreal and it doesnt feel right watching part 1 in Japanese for me personally. At some point in shippuden I ran out of episodes because I caught up after the show was taken off the air. The point that the story was at was so amazing and compelling that I said fuck it and started watching in japanese because it was much further ahead. In the beginning it was weird hearing different voices for people (particularly shikamaru) but eventually I got used to it. The sub in shippuden is really amazing and now when I rewatch the end of the show in english dub parts of it sounds weird. If you guys decide to make the switch do it because you guys would prefer to watch it that way, not to cater to us because you simply can’t please everyone. Either way you will love it. I will say that the Japanese voice acting seems more authentic and dramatic which enhances the experience, but it takes some time to get used to. Either way appreciate you guys, I wish I could become part of the group but for now I’ll have to enjoy from the sideline. I NEED THE FIRST TWO EPISODES OF SHIPPUDEN NOW!!

Why? The movies aren't canon. It's basically the filler, and they avoided the filler & non-canon episodes for a reason.

Logan

In one of their Naruto reaction episodes, Suraj said that he & Nahid would maybe watch it but release it just for patreon by december (of last year). Clearly that didn't happen (which is more than fine) but ... yeah, it was an okay movie. Slightly anachronistic, though.

Logan

Be warned, Shippuden has terrible pacing for the first two arcs, the likes of which you've never seen. The pacing improves DRAMATICALLY after that.

Nas

I mean y’all can’t blame sasuke imagine if your whole family got killed by your older brother

You guys rock, keep it up. Shippuden is not perfect, nor is any show but it will take you for a ride that based on you felt at the end of 220 you guys will be in your feels for sure for sure. I can’t wait for you guys to start it, it kicks off quite nicely.

I’m shocked people are legitimately thinking that they should suddenly switch to subs for a show they are 100+ episodes into and have became accustomed to voices.... they already have had trouble with HxH & 7DS (which they switched bsxk to subs) in sub but somehow the show with 300+ episode series would be a good choice.. fascinating

Zee

Sub sub sub

Nigel W.

No thanks on the subs. It's hard to see on that small screen and Naruto's Japanese voice acting is just like Goku's; really annoying.

Chaos T

I 100% agree

Jessica

Since the second episode is a supercut, I think the YouTube title should reflect that. "Naruto - Episode 141/142/220 Supercut - Series Finale! - Group Reaction"

Logan

I dont think Kakashi Gaiden shud be the intro to Shippuden. You wouldn't get the same feeling i feel like

AIAI

Well, saw what i wanted, thanks guys, bye guys, i'll comeback when the pain arc is on

NateRiver

Lmfao the normies story arc- finally eating ramen😂

Angelia Bissoon

It isn't a bad idea because it was meant to be like this by the author. It is placed later in the series because of TV formats and shit. They had to start Shippuden as a big thing spoiling Sasuke and shit.

Mark Stein

Not next week, next month

Mark Stein

Don't worry Hinata won't become a Medical Ninja, but in Naruto Ultimate Ninja 5 from PS2, she was a fucking OP character since he could heal herself with that medicine she gave to Naruto during the Chunin Examen. Btw I'm a soldier in my countries army and we learn in the first day that a medical soldier is as valuable as about 100 soldiers, and for every soldier we have in the battlefield we need at least 4 other soldiers supporting him out of the battlefield, don't underestimate non-figthing ninjas

Mark Stein

I don't mind either one but for them....starting with new voice actors and having to read while reacting would be a PAIN in the butt. Also certain character and its name have a better PlAy on words IN english but that's just my opinion.

Omar

It would be awesome if you watch shippuuden in sub. Dub fans got whole naruto and sub fans get shipuuden. With that you would make both sides happy

Azorc

Does anyone know why the anime waited so long to show Kakashi Gaiden in the anime?

Jjop017

Yes please do Kakashi Gaiden before Shippuden it's before Shippuden in the manga anyway and is out of place in Shippuden

Ian Duran

There is little to no difference in quality in Dubs/Subs for shippuden IMO. U guys should stay with the dubs cause you’ve come this far in dubs so why switch now and have to get use to a whole new cast of voices for the main cast

Eric Seitz

Its only 2 episodes

Yall should upload kakashi gaiden next week

I'm fine with Kakashi Gaiden being watched first, its original slot is out of place regardless.

Omar

They have an editor to edit this, even a fan edited the opening out and post the link in the comments. We are in 2020 editing doesn't require a college degree come on.

Mark Stein

Seconding what everyone is saying about shippuden subs, I don't think there's a huge difference in quality between part one dub and sub but shippuden's became oddly flat during the latter half, like the voice actors all got tired or something. Sub was amazing all the way through, some of the best voice acting I've heard. Either way, it was fun watching your reaction and I hope you enjoy FLCL!

Lila A

isn't kakashi gaiden in shippuuden somewhere? I know that it was released in the manga earlier than when it came out in the anime. But they will get to it anyway so why start with it?

Kevin Hansson

Kakashi Gaiden first would probably be the best way to go!

Kakashi Gaiden is the 119 and 120 series and yes the spoilers in the openings and endings

Chernuha

I'm pretty sure you haven't watched Boruto, you're just repeating other's opinions. Watch the Boruto movie and see if you're interested is the story. It is the story of the chapter 2 in Boruto.

Mark Stein

Kakashi Gaiden first for the Sake of your fans. Pleaseeeee.

Mark Stein

Kakashi gaiden comes before Shippuden in the manga. Just edit out the intro / endings. Let's do it boys and girls!

I have no idea what those even are so I don't mind them doing it to see them myself.

The Pebble

They have versions w/o op and ending

yall gone make them watch kakashi gaiden, an let them get spoiled by the opening guaranteed lmao smh

Shyakugaun

I don’t remember if kakashi gaiden has spoilers or not ahh

M

Kakashi Gaiden before shippuden interesting

Kingmarquiz317

Great Job Keeping it Zen.

Solebat

I watched every filler in both naruto and shippuden would not recommend watching any of the naruto and most of shippuden unless you have a great amount of patience for literally nothing to happen and then being toldnone of it happened in the first place

Ahmed Ibrahim

also, kakashi, itachi, jiraiya etc... have amazing voices in the sub compared to the dub... especially kakashi his voice in the sub is iconic

fooly cooly

Taliesin Martos

Aye cant wait until Naruto Shippuden; its really different from regular Naruto so get really for some changes👀. Also cant wait for FLCL. Even tho Ive only watched one ep I immediately loved the show. And shoutout to Keeping it Zen, fire edits and also for leaving the op in there too.

Alex cleveland

If they started Shipuden next week. Then a year from now they would know pain.

Jason Jeffory

Thankfully someone made a edit for them and replaced the OP and ED with the last Naruto OP and ED

Zee

You heard what Keep it Zen said! Stick to the dub 💖🙏😁

That's why we have uncut episodes.

Johnny Blue

I agree!

Kakashi gaiden!!!!!!!!

Rain

I recommend you guys watch Kakashi Gaiden before watching Naruto Shippuden. Kakashi Gaiden came before shippuden in the manga, and it's very important for the story. Kakashi Gaiden is only 2 episodes, so you can watch it in one session. As weird as it feels, the 2 episodes are 119 and 120 of Naruto Shippuden. You'll have to skip the opening and ED to avoid spoilers, but those 2 episodes are Kakashi Gaiden.

But not before the start of Shippuden.

Jordan

Thank you guys sooo much for watching Naruto, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Can't wait to join you for the journey of Shippuden.

Hmz13

You HAVE to watch the Kakashi Gaiden episodes!

Jordan

Correct, though some people (maybe most? not sure) think the anime version of the Boruto movie is better than the movie. Mostly because of the last fight, but still lol.

Shockzz1234

FLCL?

Karthig

See you later 👋 (I’m also excited for you guys to see Older Sakura🤞)

Jose

I believe there's only two canon Naruto movies. Naruto: The Last and Naruto: Boruto The Movie

DanielleM

Guys stop posting on youtubue, keep posting on vimeon, when you guys post for youtube you guys have to cut way more than for vimeo, it's a special gift for us from patreon, we can see more than others.

Mark Stein

I want you guys to watch Shippuden with subtitles so bad! Just for you to hear SHINRA TENSEI!

Also stick the the DUB 😅😅😅

Keep It Zen

Thank you for everything. Can’t wait for shippuuden

Frank Raddi

MARKY MARK WHAT'S GOOD BROTHA!?!? It is now an active discussion after reading these Patreon comments lol.

The Normies

Its gonna be so awesome to watch ya'll react to the first few episodes of shippuuden!! cant wait

Abs Mahamud

Imo it’s not imperative to watch KG before Shippuden. I think Episode 1 of Shippuden should be the true return to the series. It is the perfect INTRO and Segue. Before that episode, there was a full year of filler hell, then that episode came and floored everyone. The hype leading up to it was insane. That hype I’m afraid will be lost on you since you’d have technically already returned to Shippuden with KG. Watching KG anytime after episode 1 is more ideal imho. I think the longer you wait and the more time you spend with a character, the more impactful their backstory becomes. This holds especially true for Kakashi’s. It is how we all watched it and it was damn near perfect. A good compromise would be to watch JB’s edit in between the 2ND & 3RD arcs. Everyone gets it much earlier than where the Anime placed it. And it’s somewhat more relevant placement for reasons I can’t get into. Anyways, thank you guys for watching the Supercut, really glad y'all enjoyed it!! And I can’t wait for however you choose to proceed! HURRY UP NAHID 😡... jk..

Keep It Zen

FLCL IS THE GOAT

Jocta96

the sub is much better tbh

Please let them watch kakashi story before shippuden. Or at least do a poll to see what the fans want and let them decide

ahh can’t believe we made it! Thank you for the ride guys, although it’s literally just starting lmao

zaphyre

Actually, in the manga the Kakashi Gaiden comes before Shippuden, so it won't be a bad idea doing it that way.

Pls do kakashi gaiden

MajinSama

Watching the Gaiden before Shippuuden would be great! not getting any Naruto for a few weeks will suck...

olof

So excited for Shippuden!!

KrissyK

So we're going Sub in Shippudden right?

MarkyO

This was a lot of fun. Thank you so much for reacting to our childhood favorite anime. Still remember the day the reaction wheel hit on Naruto 😂 Shippuden is only gonna get better! Looking forward to it

Nuptup

Same here, but read it in manga first. I couldn't wait any longer for an entire season of fillers during Part 1.

Johnny Blue

There are some fillers of past missions naruto went on with sasuke, which might interest you guys

Brandon Diaz

They already have been given an edit where the previews are taken out and the opening and outro is replaced

Zee

I'm very anxious about the episode 1 and 2 Shippuden. I remember so vividly the shock of the changes that happened in those three years and where everyone is in this shinobi life!

Chronicler

What’s worse than Orochimaru? Well Itachi was strong enough to scare Orochimaru out of the Akatsuki, so that should give you an idea of their power. Also I can’t wait for Hero’s Comeback, they’re gonna love that op.

SeymourAsces

Nah don’t do the Kakashi gaiden story before Shippuden. I already know you guys will get spoiled by previews, openings and title cards

Ez

When everyone was saying RIP Choji in the comments, I thought it was annoying as hell. Like... don't spoil it and reveal they're alive. But don't lie and say they died either. It's better to let them form their own interpretation based on the show. Not base don your stupid comments. But at least it wasn't spoiled. lol

Michael Diaz

That was a great reaction!! Yaay FLCL hype!!! Shippuden hype!!!

raesh

Do the poll

D.j. Lachmandas

It was great ! I will watch your reactions of Shippuden.

Ah, the fear of missing out. When I was little I watched all fillers, not knowing thy were not canon. In fact, when I reached Shippuden and got to the filler arc, I dropped Naruto completely. Picked it up like 3 years later and finished it. Some fillers are okay, average at best. The comedy is good, some fights are good, but nothing spectacular. Everything that happens in these episodes never comes up again. It's like watching a watered down version of Naruto. If you guys want, watch it in your own time, but I bet you won't watch them all. I understand the curiosity. Anyways, I'm hyped for Shippuden, despite liking original Naruto a little more.

Alphonse Holdenbach

it's definitely not a "must watch" for in between part 1 and part 2, so it would be fine if they waited until the episode comes up in the anime

Valkyro

Perhaps watching kakashi's backstory isn't such a bad idea even though it comes around much later on in shippuden

Brandon Diaz

Yes

Brendon Clark

Y'all don't wait too long for Shippuden!!!

Pervy Sage

Please don't switch over to the sub in Shippuden

Please watch guys. It’s really good.

Zee

Ye kakashi gaiden is really good.

l

So for the Kakashi Gaiden edit poll, pls watch my edit and see it for yourself. I can 100% guarantee there's no shipuuden spoilers in it. I took out the Ship OP/ED and replaced it with Yura Yura and Shinario (last Part 1 OP/ED). It goes smoothly with Keep It Zen's Departure/220 supercut. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MnD4bR46-XucJ4iI-9iH86keVrpiSvVs?usp=sharing

Johnny Blue

You should definitely watch Kakashi Gaiden before Shippuden. In the anime, it's randomly in the middle of an arc and it kinda throws off the whole pace. Also it's only two episodes.

what is the deal with that ep number was the rest filler?

Hængeklumpen

How is it a spoiler? Lmao, c’mon y’all.

Zee

Can you also do a poll if you should skip the spoilerly beginning of Shippuden’s first episode?

Kanan Jarrus

Thankyou normies for your time and effort this journey was amazing !

Brownhokage

Are you guys gonna be watching the movies?

Don't even joke about doing a poll for Kakashi gaiden. that's a MUST SEE

Mike Drop

I mean, it's placed where it is in the anime, but it originated as the six chapters between Part I and Part II of the manga. So, I think there's an argument to be made for either choice.

Spudsworth

Cool man, no one cares.

BarryFRFX

IMO its better to watch Kakashi Gaiden right now.

Vladi

#TeamKakashiGaiden Let’s goooooo

Zee

Not gonna lie, I liked this show more than I thought i would. It's been a journey. I'm excited for FLCL tho, another show from my childhood that left an impression on me.

Ruben Lopez

Sub is much more better than dub in Shippuden

Hank yang

You should definitely watch Kakashi Gaiden at some point, it's important to the story.

Jules Eris

Just watch Shipuuden like you guys plan to in a few weeks and watch the films on your own time or whatever you decide, do you and don't listen to cries and demands.

Taliesin Martos

Nice!

MRBS

Yeah for sure, shippuden dub is decent up to like one third , then it plummets HARD in terms of dub quality while its complete opposite for the sub, sub is always amazing but it just gets even better as the show goes on, its like two completely different shows. I'd rate shippuden as a whole with dub a 6/10, with sub 8.5 or even 9/10, thats how much difference it makes to the show

Michael Fjellstrom

And plus it’ll be cool to see you guys know some things beforehand on kakashi and you’ll understand why he does certain things. They’ll be neat

Anthony Stone

Don’t think watching the kakashi gaiden a bit earlier will affect anything spoiler wise unless someone can tell Me otherwise. As long as it doesn’t spoil anything I don’t see a problem

Anthony Stone

You guys should watch the naruto movies before going to shippuden

Daniel

I wish they could look into naruto kai to make it a more enjoyable experience.

Reulee

I can't believe it, they finished Naruto man, Shippuden hype is real

Lawliet

I would recommend reacting to the first Naruto Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow before you guys start Shippuden. I re-watched it a couple weeks ago and forgot how good it is for an anime movie. I think Nahid & Rana would especially enjoy it.

MAY

You should put up a poll of sub vs dub for naruto shippudden just like you guys did with naruto bcoz there are so many new characters in shippuden and sub is so much better.

Naveen Ved

Dont think you should watch the Kakashi stuff until you are supposed to in the show but I guess it depends on what the majority think

MOB12

FLCL!! Excited for the Shippuden news but this is a great replacement until then 👌🏼

Micheal Hernandez

The end of Part 1 guys 😢😢😢😢. It’s been a fun ride

Zee

They're at the end😭😭😭😭😭

Everton

Wait the normies are doing some reactions to FLCL yes!!!!

CuteAdorableDog

Let's goooooo
