Naruto Shippuuden Episode 113

[Archangel]

At this point, if they take 2 chapters an episode, it will take 50 episodes to catch up to the manga. in 50 weeks, they'll have another 50 chapters out, and be 50 chapters ahead. Like this it should be about another year and a half or 2 before they need any fillers. Hopefully.

What does need have to do with anything?

Before this filler they were still 80-90 chapters ahead, so there was obviously no need for it.

Edit:

Somehow it has a different feel from the pre-filler naruto. Might be because it's been such a long time since i last saw it or because the soundtrack is so different but it feels more modern to me somehow

Also, i'm proud of the animators for actually making it through the whole episode without using sidebars
