    Yeah, I'm really hoping that the two tragedies he was talking about were his parents deaths and Yahiko's death and not his parents and that stupid dog.

    if they want to put filler-scenes in it, then they should think twice how they do it.
    Those chuunin ninjas were Hidden Rain ninjas. So it makes sense that one of the Hidden Rain ninja would look like them. Hell, even Hanzo wears their trademark rebreather(which they finally explained why they wear them, apparently there's a lot of poison mist in the Rain).

    I don't believe that he mentioned his dog being his second tragedy specifically. And in all fairness, the dog did save his life and give him something to live for.

    Good ep. Had a lot of good parts. It is nice to see what war does when you are caught in the cross fire. Very universal theme that lives today.

    c'mon, he looked exactly like him and it's about 20 years before. it's like using a Kakashi-look-a-like for an irrelevant appearence of a konoha-nin.

    about the poison mist. Am I wrong, or did Yahiko just assume that the mist was poisonous? I mean, wouldn't Jiraiya & his pals have died if there really was any poison?

    Given all the rain ninja with re-breathers, it would seem like it is common knowledge. And they had those helmets from the moment the set out, so were likely expecting it.

    He was upside down, you couldn`t see his face at all...
    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

    Except there were 3 Rain ninja in the Chuunin exam and they ALL looked like that. So it's obviously a common motif.

    okay, you've got me. But they took the easy way by using him.
    and this doesn't explain why Jirayia, Tsunade and Oro don't need those masks.
