Wow, this was a great filler arc. The main villain was pretty damn hot and I found him looking a lot like the lovely Kimimaro. The proxy fight between Gai and Lee was awesome as hell with that track kicking in. First time in a long while I've actually felt excited while watching Naruto.

More stuff like this!

Because the show is entitled "Naruto" would be my guess. But yeah, I concur. Naruto's presence was unnecessary and just as annoying as usual.
