Because people are idiots.
Who gives a damn about random ugly frames anyway, they are all over the series (and anime in general). Concentrate instead on the important aspects of the episode (Sasuke wears lipstick, hell yeah!). I love him more already.
Sasuke looks like Tina Turner in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome.Quote:

I've got a question which is not related to the topic, but I don't want to create a new thread just for it, so.........
Is Asuma in anyway related to the Third Hokage?
How would anyone know? I mean nothing, NOTHING in the series so far has led anyone to believe anything one way or the other. Just assume he's not so you'll be surprised if he is.Quote:

They do share the same surname....... why didn't Kishimoto simply just create another surname instead?Quote:

this has been mentioned many times....
kishimoto has made no indication of their relation to each other, even at points of the series where that wouldve mattered most (ie. the 3rd's funeral, or anything to do with konohamaru, since he would most likely be Asuma's son if Asuma is the 3rd's son.)
Well I'm kinda hoping he's related to the third. Asuma gets too little screen time and it would be great if there's a future story arc with him in it.
I don't think Asuma is related in any way to the third, only because Asuma's name is "Sarutobi Asuma", where as it seems the thirds name was " ______ Sarutobi". (In Japanese order if you can't tell). I only think that Sarutobi was the thirds first name becasue of the way the surpart, Sensai has been added in the series. Lee calls Gai Gai-Sensai, Naruto and co call Kakashi Kakashi-Sensai, and the Sannin called the third Sarutobi-Sensai. If the genin called their teacher by their other name (Maito-Sensai, Hatake-Sensai, etc..), then there might be a case, but I'm going with the thirds first name being Sarutobi.
But I believe Sarutobi is a Japanese surname...... which means we don't know the third's given name yet. Well I might be wrong though.
Hmmm I am inclined to agree with Cozz on this one. I believe The 3rds name was Sarutobi. If you remember when the first and 2nd are talking to him in a flashback they call him "Saru"
Although it would be cool if Asuma was related to the third.
some names could be both surnames and his name, because i believe there was a character named hatake. He was the first examiner that got killed by the sand jounin
I believe his name was Gekkou Hayate not hatake.Quote:

The 3rd and Asuma DO look a little similar...
but who knows?

yeah, I didn't really notice that. I'm an idiot, kill me now.
my new favorite episode to watch x_X
OMG 1 of the greatest eps ever!
Holy cow. Please read the rules before posting. I am talking about your sigs. Change it as soon as you read this. First warning.

I'm really into this episode because (finally) more of the fight unfurled. Also, the pacing of this episode was so much better than that of the last like 5-6 eps.
Umm. I just watached this: I'm a bit behind, I know.
Just wanted to comment:
Animation -
Best in the series so far. Fluid, imaginative, truly poo-your-pants awesome.
Artwork -
In my opinion, the physical artwork (by which I mean the landscape, and the water especially) was great. Really great. It was simple, of course, but only to accommodate the action. Too much detail would have detracted from the speed and fludity of the episode as a whole. I prefer the way the water/smoke/fire/cliifs were drawn in this episode to any previous episodes.
I agree, though, that the human artwork left a little to be desired at points, though not all the time..
But it DOESN'T MATTER -the episode was bloody marvellous!
I disagree. This episode is really bad. If this is the only naruto episode I don't think I would like it at all. This episode is unrealistic even if you strip away the display of power and the style of animation. The acting itself (the reactions of the characters and their expressions) is crappy. Storytelling is also disappointing, as you already read about the explanation of Sharingan. The animation did not intensify the explanation of Sharingan [Crows_Kill]. It would have been a much stronger presentation to overlay and contrast the slowmotion seen by the 2nd level sharingan and the fast action in real time. This way, you can tell how fast sharingan is reading naruto's movement. And the contrast is going to add rhythm.Quote:

Imagine if this episode of Naruto was a stand alone. That episode 133 was the only episode of Naruto. I don't think anyone would be complaining as much because it'd just be aN anime movie about ninjas beating the shit out of eachother and doing impossible things. But it's because of the 132 episodes before this one that makes this not so. It's tearing apart the reality it has created for itself. However badass the episode is (which I quite agree), that fact is still true.
I think Crows_Kill put it very well. *applauds*
Damn this was one cool ep, 134 should be real good also.
