Naruto Shippuden
Oshimeter
Synopsis
After two and a half years of training away from home, Naruto Uzumaki walks back through the gates of the Hidden Leaf Village, stronger but still the same loudmouth knucklehead everyone remembers. That contrast is kind of the whole appeal of Shippuuden: it takes a character you already know and throws him into situations that are genuinely darker and more complex than anything in the original series. The Akatsuki, a group of rogue ninja with terrifying abilities, are making their move, and their plans put Naruto and everyone he cares about directly in the crosshairs. The stakes feel real this time. Friends betray each other, mentors fall, and the chakra-based power system gets layered enough that fights become strategic puzzles rather than just spectacle. Studio Pierrot produced 500 episodes here, so yes, there's filler; skip guides exist for a reason, but the core story arcs hit hard emotionally in ways you wouldn't expect from a shounen series. The soundtrack alone carries some scenes into genuinely affecting territory. If you liked Hunter x Hunter's ability to shift from fun adventure to something heavier, or if Jujutsu Kaisen's cursed energy system grabbed you and you want something with even more depth and lore, this is where a lot of that DNA comes from. Fair warning though: Shippuuden assumes you've seen the original Naruto, so start there if you haven't. The payoff is worth the investment.

Good
Life make anime
It's an alright episode. Not bad, not great. Not a lot really happens. It is nice to get some backstory on Sai, though the scenes involving the book could've been shortened this episode, in my opinion. Also, it's nice that we got some downtime after an intense couple of episodes. C&A
La genialidad de este episodio radica en cómo decide retratar el dolor. Cuando Fukasaku le da la noticia a Naruto en la oficina de la Hokage, el mundo no se destruye con explosiones: se destruye con el silencio . La dirección de este capítulo es impecable. El colapso emocional de Naruto no empieza con un grito de rabia, sino con la pura negación y el reproche herido hacia Tsunade por haberlo dejado ir solo. Es una reacción tan real y madura dentro de su inmadurez adolescente que te aprieta el corazón. Naruto pierde a la única figura verdaderamente paterna que había tenido en su vida, al hombre que le enseñó a ser un ninja, pero sobre todo, al que lo aceptó incondicionalmente.
Sakura was just standing there crying while Naruto went berserk and it was frustrating to watch after her big win against Sasori. She really needed to do something besides getting in the way
Though disliked, Danzo was a well-written character. He did the village's dirty work but fell to ambition and jealousy of Hiruzen. Also, there are no words for Sasuke's ruthlessness. Seeing an Akimichi member and the falling leaf detail were nice touches.
We saw why characters like Iruka hated the Kyuubi. Minato and Kushina's sacrifice and speeches were very impressive. Writing a short review is hard; it might be the most emotional Shonen episode. The blue/purple flower detail during Kushina's speech was also impressive.
The more I watch the anime ... the more I hate sakura
Great character building and worth it!
Wow
What a wonderful episode, I shed a few tears.
me encanta la forma en que Sakura como buena amiga sabiendo lo doloroso que es para Naruto su descontrol, quiera mentirle, al final lo bueno es que Yamato le dice la verdad, lo que hace reflexionar a Naruto sobre usar su fuerza, sobre hacerse fuerte el mismo
