Hey all, due to some issues with false DMCA takedown requests, we've had to remove and censor a few things until the situation is resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience.
I'm writing this commentary as I watch Episode 220, also known as the final filler episode. (woo!)
I'm glad we'll never have to see that horrid opening again. I hate it. Unless they use it in Hurricane Chronicles, which I doubt.
Is it just me, or was the animation on Kankuro horrible this episode?
I love how everyone stands and watches Gaara fight instead of helping at all until he faints, which is when they all come running.
And enter Jiraiya and Kakashi, right on time for the fight to be over.
I love ******'s face as he sees Jiraiya in his room, simply screaming, "ERO SENNIN!!!"
"You were probably gathering information on naked ladies"...just what I was thinking.
I'd like to call this episode "wrap up ****** in half an episode", since that's basically all it is. It works, but major plot points like
****** leaving for 2 1/2 years, Ino training under Sakura, TenTen getting some screentime, and everyone getting interrupted from the 10 seconds of what they were doing to talk about ****** leaving. If the episode had been longer, more people than Hinata may have been able to see him off, we wouldn't see about 10 seconds of what people were doing, and the plot would be deeper.
Oh well. The writers do what the writers do.

Next time is an hour long special celebrating the new series!
One random episode isn't enough to judge an anime. First watch at least one arc of the series in the dub then watch it in Japanese. I started watching ****** in Japanese when Jiraiya first appeared.
