Tack that on top of his resolve not to kill anyone as that just contriubtes to the cycle of hatred and we have a rehashed Vash the Stampede.

oh. hmm. k. Also wow way to bring back memories of the old days of adult swim on cartoonnetwork! I miss Trigun D:

Oddly fitting for this chapter discussion. Continue on, Max. Continue on.

And yeah, my thoughts are basically combined within this thread. I think on some level, Sakura does have feelings for Naruto has displayed through some of the chapters in the Post timeskip, but she still also has those unresolved feelings for Sasuke. I think it helps Naruto in this matter because she's spent a lot of time with just him (and Sai too I guess) as of late over Sasuke, so she's gotten to see the good in him.

One thing that gets me is that Hinata confession. I have a feeling it wasn't just thrown out there all willy-nilly. Maybe it had another meaning like.. everyone believes in Naruto or something deep? I for one hate this deep, relationship bullshit that we're going to be forced to read, only for it to be a cliffhanger and left alone for another fifty chapters as we chase Sasuke. Everything always leads back to that 'crymeariver' character. Ugh.

I'm betting next chapter involves Naruto telling Sakura that shes not allowed to confess anything to him until he redeems Sasuke and finishes the job(s) he has at hand.

When Shika comes in with the "But we got to take care of Sasuke and that we cant let who he is preclude us from using all we have against him and possibly end up killing him" I see Naruto with "Listen up, Slapnuts, you're the smartest damned person in this world and I'm the goddamned juggernaut, bitch, we will figure out a way to do this and we will do it." Pep talk no jutsu never fails.

Show for kids bought by company that caters to kids? Hmm...

Probably the only other alternatives could've been Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network, and the latter loves to crap on anime when given the chance and I haven't seriously looked at Nick since I was like 10.

I know when this subject initially came up, I didn't feel it a bad move if it happens to springboard a more mainstream acceptance of anime beyond everything being Pokemon or even YuGiOh.

**Draggy** · 2009-10-29 10:40

We dont even get dubbed Naruto over here :c

wait, that's a good thing.

From what I heard adultswim turned down Naruto Shippuden cause of how it was dubbed or something

**arus2001** · 2009-10-29 12:29

Wouldn't know for sure, but I'd be more inclined to believe AS turned it down because it wasn't comedy. Bleach and Moribito are the only new episodes of stuff they're airing lately, and Moribito even went through a nasty patch where they like showed 3 episodes, then didn't continue for half a year, only to resume 'em at like 5:30am before totally rebooting at I think 2:30am now. Put simply, I don't think they felt it worth it and the anime fan in me just wants to say it would've been wasted there anyway.

I'll have to try and catch it on Disney to see if the dub's really bad, though. Granted, after enduring voicework from early generation video games, even mediocre anime stuff doesn't bother me all that much.

Very sad episode
