    Nope. Just wrong.

    Do you have any complaints about the content of the episode besides nitpicking continuity issues about whether or not Pain's durability or their respective attacks fit into the canon correctly? I don't find any of those issues compelling enough to detract from the episode's quality, especially since as Assertn pointed out some of them are mistaken.

    In the animator's previous episode where Naruto and Sasuke fought, Naruto suddenly developed martial arts skills that he had never previously displayed, throwing out some actual Karate-style moves, as well as various nitpicky things like the ability to shoot around underwater like a torpedo. Is this material "filler"? Sure. Does it make for a more interesting fight scene, a scene in which continuity concerns only play the smallest part? Definitely.

    The only really major issue is Pain's forcefield which could be explained away as his normal ability if you really wanted to. Let's say that the Kyuubi's attacks were pushing it back and preventing it from expanding and that the whole thing took place in five seconds.

    I just divined the fact that your posts are about the canonicity of the various attacks used without reading the thread. You got me.

    Great, less than 1 second of animation is offputting. I agree, in the Sasuke vs Orochimaru fight he used a much better speedline effect, but it's not exactly earthshatteringly bad.

    Really? 1 second?

    You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
