We pick up where we left off with more Sound 4 and, to be fair, we're a little distracted to expect a lot of tangents from these episodes where not a lot happens. Did you like the Sound 4 fights in Naruto? Well, these are those fights once again but happening at the same time and then Naruto shows up and shows you why his name is the title of the show!
The Swag's in spaceship mode right now for the Mizukage as he faces down Gaara after taking out Ohnoki (Ohnoki's not dead, he just threw his back out) and it's a swagged out battle between two top heavyweights. Then, we just do the Sound 4 fight again with no changes to the results. Real G shit how they made us waste that episode. Oh and Kiba sucks.
The war rages on with two new episodes, both which can be summed up as Kage Fight Nights. First, we meet the second Mizukage and his giant clam and then Naruto takes on the third Raikage who will stop at nothing to finger Naruto!
The continuation of the Fourth Great Ninja War continues in earnest when Naruto and Killer Bee run into the edo-tensai team of Nagato and Itachi. These sets of episode illustrate what we've long suspected: The Uchiha family is straight bullshit and Itachi is the biggest bullshit of them all! Check it out as we begin to set the stage to the final conflict!
The best boyz are back with a tankie ass title and a set of episodes that could be described as filler. Firstly, we're caught up with recent events thanks to Mr. Nara and the Konoha leaf news team, then we deal with Gaara and his shitty dad.
Been waiting for this ep for much too long! Benel and Lawson go through the Power OVA that punches the clock and passionlessly drives it in like pity sex. It's the final episode of the Power arc and this goes out a damp squib, but the animation is still great and Benel and Lawdawg talk about it! Get into it!
The boyz are back in town with two more episode into the Power mini-arch. We get up-close in personal with Dokku, Shiseru and the family as they deal with the aftermath of the attack on their village and Dokku is too guilty to bone down. Not us... brother. Not us.
We're back, bay bay and we're starting the Naruto: Power miniseries that lands smack-dab in the middle of the Great Ninja War arc. Lemme us tell you guys, these set of episode fucks and fucks hard with some dope action and heart-wrenching drama. We meet Dokku, we meet the kids, we meet see the gang and we, most importantly, talk about Martial Arts film which Lawson is an expert in! Hand Claps, Get Into It
Cos' I don't do jobs! This episode has the Boyz talk about a two-episode stretch focusing on the Seven Swordsmen of the mist arch. In the first ep, we meet the twin threats of Jinpachi and Kushimaru as they face Kakashi and Guy. In the second ep, Omoi gets over his social anxiety to battle the lightning blade Ringo! Both solid enough eps but very clearly time-wasters during the Great Ninja War arch.
We get a big fat flashback episode that stops the momentum dead as we see the first meeting of the Raikage and Tsunade. Clearly, this episode was supposed to be three and cut down into two, because everything is hand-waved at the end and ultimately this was a pointless waste of everyone's time.
