Not that this was particularly good but atleast it was quick with minimal parts that were unbareable. Likely one of the best filler arc's mearly for not being to long and having some meaning and actually link to the main story line.

No new Naruto until the Jan 13th who knew.

I guess for everyone, that's the best present we could've gotten.

Someone post what happens on the next episode preview.

And its jan 11. I had already posted that on the upcoming episodes thread since last week (I guess nobody reads it anymore... bleh)

this filler wasn't even that bad

[BioAlien]

This was not as bad as i thought it would be...

it was an okay filler i guess.


i just hope the next episode will be good.

[kimbap629]

well, i just see the fillers like this...

a. it's filler
b. it's a given that it will suck compared to the "real" story
c. i don't take anything seriously from what the fillers have shown. like naruto being able to throw the rasengan, magic ocarina that gave naruto super speed & strength, tony the tiger mizuki, mixin ramen dough with rasengan, raiga...being part of seven legendary swordsman (i thought they all were from hidden village of the mist? why can't or doesn't raiga use any suiton type jutsu..?), etc

I thought that this arc was good, but as Kimbap said, it was rushed. Either that or the writers are complete and utter idiots (which would not be a stretch if you analyze what they have produced). There really is no other reasoning behind all the plot holes (i.e. the Rasengan being a linear attack yet no opponent, no matter how skilled he/she was supposed to be, has dodged it).

As Yukimura stated, it will definitely be a slap in the face for those who don't know that everything that has happened for the past year and a half (or has it been 2 years already?) was not supposed to happen or have anything to do with the actual storyline. Lets hope that the next arc with the sand ninjas will provide a smooth transition from his "filler personality" to his "normal personality." Then again, they've made a lot of the characters just seem utterly retarded in the past year and a half and i doubt they are going to do anything about them.

It would also be a slap in the face when the real story does not refer to anything in the filler whatsoever (one of series' characteristic was to show flashbacks intermittently throughout the episodes).

The arc started out with promise, and went south fast in this special. I didn't like the wall, sure it was supposed to be a symbol, but at least make it fit within the naruto universe (e. g., a wall cannot take a zillion exploding tags and still be standing). At least do something creative, like fortify it with chakra or something. And the bad guy's death at the end seemed more of an afterthought than anything else. Filler writers: "Oh crap! We forgot to kill off this nameless filler villian... rasengan to the face, yeah that'll work!!"

Completely forgettable.

Surely this filler arc was one of the more interesting ones... It managed to lock my attention to the episode the whole time ( O_O Miracle! ). Menma sure was an excelent character... He got some degree of personality... He strongly reminds me of Fye from Tsubasa Chronicles... The typical "Lazy Guy" personality, which for some reason I love!
Of course there was many holes in the plot as it was stated in this topic, but the image of self-sacrifice in the end was kind of better than having the "filler-character-always-survive" cliché...
Another plot hole I noticed is when Menma saves TenTen from the flying arrows when the group enters the village... If a smart guy like Neji knew they were entering a village which was recently set on fire, he could be more careful and detected the arrows with his Byakugan... But, oh well...
