Is it me or has the animation in Naruto gotten poor lately? I was hoping for something more original in this episode, but didn't get it.

On Sakura, I don't think she's really all that pretty, shes just average. I am hoping when he was hitting on her is was just to make the waitress think he was with them or friends with them to be able to leave the bill with them.

Isn't Sasuke like as fast or faster than Lee, so he should be able to keep up with him no problem I dont see how Sakura and Naruto will be able too though..

I didn't care all that much for this episode. I hope this gets better and soon....
