Better that they take breaks to evaluate the shitty parts of their story then to just keep shitting on it.

[gandorf]

Decent episode, nothing amazing...Next weeks episode is called team tenten....I don't think she has done one useful thing throughout the entire series yet.

[Olbohn]

fillers make me sad... i cant wait until they get back on track

[orson]

At least you can skip filler and the anime continues. What blows is when they take amazing series like FMA, Claymore, Desert Punk, Soul Eater, Etc. give them 2~ seasons and then cancel them forcing them into a shitty fanfic ending.

Spoiler: show

Tsuchikage is taking the turtle island to the Shinobi Alliance place (I believe he's making it fly too).
Naruto says that things are weird cause the sky shifted again, and that the mission's over so he needs to go back to Konoha to wait for Sasuke in his attack.
Sasuke is still wrapped up with those bandages. He asks Zetsu if he's ready yet. Black Zetsu says not yet. White Zetsu says the next time he looks upon something, it will be as if he's in a different world and that it looks interesting.
The scouts sense Kabuto inside.

~More to come

Kabuto says they need to extract info from Yamato before anything. But he says not to kill him before they can use him to strengthen the Zetsu.
Madara says he could easily use the Rinnegan Ningendou's technique to get the info but that Yamato would die from it.
A snake slithers onto Yamato's arms and bites his palms.
Madara says that it's a poison that can immobilize the Mokuton powers, and then calls Kabuto a (crafty) bastard for doing so much research on Shodai's cells.
Kabuto says its a remedy he made to suppress Hashirama's powers, and not to worry, that he won't use it on Zetsu.

Kabuto says that even without using Rinnegan, they can get the info they want with his truth serum and Madara's Sharingan.

Aoba and Motoi talk, Motoi says that it seemed they already arrived (to the Alliance location via Oonoki)
It's basically a meet and greet for everyone and they're grouped together.
Tsuchikage is talking to Mizukage about the situation, and about Kyuubi and Hachibi.
The kages and Shikaku talk about the situation, their forces, and other things.
Kankurou is the captain of the Ambush Squad/Battalion. He introduces himself to Sai and Omoi. Sai greets him and wonders what nickname he should give him. Omoi wonders if someone as young as that should be a captain. There are also others.
Kakashi tells Gaara he's the regiment commander. Ao asks Shii if this is his first time in a war, and Shii says yes. Daru is the captain of the 1st Unit/Battalion. Tenten asks if he is their captain, and Chouza remarks that he seems pretty sluggish/listless (using a play on his name "darui", which means that)
Someone named Kitsuchi (yellow earth) is captain of the 2nd battalion/unit. Karui, Hinata (who says that she's nervous), and Kurotsuchi are part of it among others, and Kurotsuchi curses that it has to be her father who has to lead them.
3rd battalion has Hatake Kakashi as captain. Guy who's still collapsed is on his team. Lee asks if Gai is alright. Sakura asks what happened with him.
4th unit/battalion lead by Gaara, whose position is regiment commander and commanding officer. Has Chouji, Temari, and Shikamaru. They make some remarks (Chouji's is about food and Shikamaru is complaining about how much of a pain this is).
5th battalion/unit lead by Mifune. Has Kiba, Hana, Shino, and Ino and they make their remarks.

Kabuto: "First I have the Akatsuki (Itachi, Deidara, Sasori, Kakuzu, Nagato). Then the former jinchuuriki members. Then there's the 5 kages' once predecessors. The rest of them are skilled fighters who made a name for themselves" (Zabuza, Haku, Kimimaro, Asuma, Hanzou, Chiyo-baa, Gaara's aide, Neji's father).
Yamato was put to sleep by the Shodai wall/slime thing.
Madara: "Let's get this war started!"


*Trans notes
1- Remember that this is still a summary, not a word for word translation, though it gets all the important things though I haven't translated the things between Naruto and Bee
2-~Still didn't summarize Naruto/Bee convo which was earlier on

I'd re-post the more accurate trans but more or less is what Marcicus posted. Instead, I bring images!!!

Wait, is Kabuto saying he used Impure World Resurrection to bring back all those people? Jesus Christ, for a forbidden jutsu it's becoming overplayed.

I wonder what they mean by the former jinchuuriki and 5 kages. Does that mean Sarutobi or Minato, or even Kushina are back?

Spoiler: show

Sarutobi would be out of the question since his soul was sealed, along with the first and second hokages after the Orochimaru battle in Konoha. Minato's soul is sealed as well with the same jutsu.

Sakura vs Chiyo, Shikamaru vs Asuma..

Oh, boy. That's going to be fun.

[Souj]

no, it's not. It's going to be retarded and full of shit no one cares about because they fucking died so who cares?

The only thing worse than a manga where no one dies, is a manga where people constantly come back from the dead.

[Ragnus]

Spoiler: show

Shikamaru vs. Asuma probably isn't going to be much of a fight. Unless they pull the 'ol "I know how you think" gambit which makes no sense because Asuma constantly talked about how Shikamaru can think and strategize circles around him.

I really do agree that everyone coming back from the dead cheapens their deaths and the technique that created a wonderful "Holy Shit..." moment during the Chunin Exam arc.

[Lucavi]

Its like every classic RPG. When you've run out of boss ideas for that final dungeon, what do you do? RECOLORED PREVIOUS BOSS WITH SLIGHTLY MODIFIED ABILITIES!!

C'mon, people! Japan is Japan! Not that this is a purely Japanese concept (just think back to the old Saturday morning cartoons), but this is an extremely common thing. Annoying, yes, but common.

[Azull]

You would think with such fears of a body giving up secrets someone in the Naruto world would of eventaully saw it as a good idea to cremate bodies.

[Vandole]

i'm curious as to why jiraiya wasnt brought from the dead.

[Souj]

the technique doesn't use their actual bodies.
and I'm not going to even bother trying to guess about Jaraiya

[DrClout]

Only six Rasengan's? What a bitch. . .

In other news, it's out: Naruto 515 - The War Begins

[Lucavi]

Good question, Vandole. Maybe Kishi is reserving it for a solo Naruto vs. Kabutomaru matchup for a "gasp" factor.

[Eaglestrike]

All I can think about is Megaman games where you have to go through and beat all 8 bosses over again in quick succession to advance to Dr. Wily.

I don't really mind though, it looks like they're finally going to bring in the rest of the cast instead of just Naruto or Sasuke over and over.

[Tokitoki]

Zabuza! Fuck yeah!

I think Im going to have to watch that arc now.
