QUICK TAKES

my childhood anime! fully vote untuk ini

Naruto is a classic one which everyone should watch, it’s a must WATCH! Kakashi will forever be my first fav character ever and the whole show was really good and to enjoy the story of Naruto.

This episode is really great. Time to say goodbye to this amazing series. Although the animation is old, it draws out healthy emotions from us. The journey felt like something we were on alongside Naruto. The pace and flow is soothing here. Moreover it's a treat to the eyes.

Episode yg berikan salam perpisahan yg hangat dan sederhana. Sebelum msuk ke petualangan selanjutnya. Wajib tonton buat kalian :D

I love how Naruto train with jiraya it's just nostalgic episode and all the funny thing they do and from Now the action, and make the village respecto now Naruto

This episode is actually really nice for me. It really brings back nostalgia, especially seeing Naruto as a genin. The animation is old, but gold~ Legenddd!

And there’s also a small detail from this episode that appears again in the final episode of Naruto Shippuden :3 Cute <3 Coz I love Naruto Shippuden ending lol

the final episode of the original series wraps things up nicely with naruto leaving to train with jiraiya but after so much filler it feels more like relief than hype, the goodbyes are sweet especially with hinata watching from a distance but nothing really happens beyond setting up shippuden

Musashi: earth (chi), water (sui), fire (ka), wind (fu), and void (ku)

Naruto: fire, wind, lightning, earth, and water (yin and yang release? nature energy?)

aaa

Gaara choosing to fight as a human instead of letting the monster take over shows how much Naruto changed him and that Sand Tsunami was massive

It felt so right that Sakura and Ino are back to their old rivalry while training under Tsunade and they are both going to be much stronger soon

My eyes got a bit blurry when Hinata watched from the shadows as Naruto walked away because she just wanted to say goodbye but stayed back

That huge sand burial after Gaara used the Shukaku pike was such a satisfying way to end the fight and clear his head

I actually felt a lump in my throat when Naruto ate that last bowl of ramen with Iruka, because it feels like the end of an era for the Hidden Leaf. It was cool to see Gaara finally at peace with himself too. Seeing those silhouettes at the end makes me want to start the next series right this second

As the credits scrolled by, each flashback from hundreds of episodes giving me serious nostalgia, I couldn't help but feel a huge ache knowing this really was it, Naruto was leaving the village. It just made the weight of his journey and what comes next so much more real for me.

I stood there staring at the screen when Naruto looked at the Fourth Hokage rock before leaving with Jiraiya and I cannot believe it is actually over

that last bowl of ramen with iruka felt like such a perfect goodbye to the village and you can tell how proud iruka is of how far naruto has come

rock lee promising to train a hundred times harder while naruto is gone is such a classic lee move and it shows how much they all respect each other

I really can't believe we're finally at the end of the original series after all those filler episodes, and seeing Hinata watching Naruto leave from the shadows was such a sweet but sad moment for her. It feels like every character is starting their own journey now, and Naruto walking away with Jiraiya is the perfect way to close this chapter

that silhouette of naruto as an adult at the very end felt heavy, and knowing you have to wait for shippuden to see them all grown up is torture

EPISODE CONTEXT

As episode 220 of 220, 'Departure' is the definitive final chapter of the original Naruto series, arriving after the resolution of intense conflicts and emotional arcs that defined the show's latter stretch. It serves as the essential bridge between Naruto's original run and the continuation in Naruto: Shippuden, shifting focus from past battles to future ambitions. This is the episode that sends characters — and the audience — forward with purpose, making it required viewing for anyone planning to continue into Shippuden.
