I've never really been bothered by fillers, but this one send chills down my spine. I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that some of the animation was done well, while other parts seemed rushed and choppy. At one point Naruto's face was like, too small for his head. Wtf is with that... seriously. -_-
I might just be going crazy, but a lot of the voice acting seemed different too. Lee's voice wasn't as ethusiastic as it usually is, and it almost was like someone else was doing it. Same with Sakura. Might just be me, though.
Shitty storyline, of course. The star kid is like Naruto and the guy who stole the rock represents Sasuke. Blah blah blah.
I give it an F. I even liked the chef duel one better than this.
