WTF is with this whole Mizuki-Orochimaru conspiracy crap? Why the hell would Orochimaru want Mizuki? Last I checked he got his ass kicked by Naruto (very easily, mind you) at the beginning. So I always thought he was kinda a pussy.
And I love how they keep his face in shadow, trying to make him look all badass. Not as if we've seen him before or anything.
Oh yeah, he looks like a real threat...
In other news, I like the new outro. Not the song, but the animation for it.
