Yeah that's pretty much it actually. Worth watching as I'm a Hinata fan ^_^
Sadly there was no busty Hinata in yesterdays episodes =( hopefully next week =)
As the beginning it really felt like you were watching a movie. They really did quite well with the animation. It's quite refreshing after all the poor quality filler episodes.
There's 220 episodes of the old 'saga' (I'll call them sagas, reminds me of DBZ). And 2 episodes of the new saga, so far. Until next friday.
If you want you can just ignore all the filler episodes, maybe watch from 218 I think. The story just before he goes off for 2.5 years.
> I'm still watching those lame ass fillers. Have any of the
> episodes been translated?
The fillers? No The English dub is still far behind. Stupid Viz own the rights and they've been releasing DVDs with only a few episodes. But here we get the Boxsets (which saves us money), which they do too.
Viz are famous for milking things. Like the Ranma 1/2 manga, took 8 years to finish in Japan. 12 years in America =S So if you started reading it at 18 you couldnt finish it until you turned 30 =S with a wife and kids probably.
The new Shippuuden episodes are subbed. The subbers usually take longer for 2 episode specials and new theme songs. Sometimes 2 or 3 days longer. But because it was back to 'normal' they must have been keen and got it out ASAP.
So far looks like 166,955 have downloaded it.
FINALLY!
The filler episodes have finished and now they're back to the manga stories =D which means they should all be 2.5 years older now. ^^ I can't wait to see Hinata :D she becomes very busty. woo!
The fillers started on episode 135 and ended 220. So 85 episodes of filler, remember though, 1 episode a week so that's a year and a half of filler :O I imagine they lost 10,000s of fans who gave up during the fillers. You might as well just watch 135 and then the new Naruto Shippuuden episodes.
I'm download it now, a 2 episode special, cant wait. =)
EDIT: Just noticed my earlier posts 4 months ago when people thought it was ending sooner. We were wrong =(
> 100 filler episodes? Wow. Why would anybody watch it?
I think it ended up being 70 something, but still that is an insane amount that's never been done before. I'm sure it's put many fans off the series.
