Naruto #30: "The Sharingan Revived: Dragon Flame Jutsu"

[Kanadian Kyuubi]

Booyah, another episode where Sasuke steals the spotlight for once! Last time, a mysterious Hidden Grass Ninja defeated Naruto by sealing his Kyuubi chakra not allowing him to use it anymore (he was already transformed using the Chakra already, so he reverted back to normal), but then he fainted, and then got thrown at a tree, and pined to it like a thumbtack with a Kunai thrown by Sakura to safe him from falling further! Wow, friends don't ask for much nowadays...​

Tonight at 9 on Toonami, Canada has already seen this episode a few weeks ago

 

[Brandon-kun]

I can't wait until the episode! Well I already saw it on Youtube but I want to see it again!!! I can't wait...and I really liked episode 29!

 

[Flame Haze SnS]

This one's tonight? I thought that it air last week on Naruto Marathon? (I was sick at hospital at that time)

Nope. Only three new episodes aired.
The fourth one at the begin was a rerun.

 

[Kamex]

I've got a question. I believe Viz has released nine Naruto graphic novels so far, about which episode number is at the same length, story-wise, to the end of that graphic novel?

Anyway, can't wait for this episode.

I think about one chapter equals one ep. Thats about it.

 

[TheTurquoiseTauros!]

i love naruto and hell yah im watching it tonight in 10 min.

I think about one chapter equals one ep. Thats about it.

Well, that would be the case if the chapters of Naruto were longer (like, say, about forty pages or so a month like Fullmetal Alchemist), but that is far from the truth. For shounen manga that are weekly and are adapted to anime, it can range anywhere from just one chapter equaling one episode (usually some 'filler' material is added in for this instance) to around four or five chapters (in the case of fights scenes).

As to what the exact episode equals the end of the ninth volume of the manga... I have no clue.

Well, it looks like we're nearing the part that I enjoyed most about the Naruto manga, the [spoil]fights between the Genin to see who goes onto to the third round of the exam.[/spoil] That won't be for a while, though, so I'll just wait out until then.

 

[Ralts Master]

Generally an anime episode is between 2 and 4 chapters worth of manga...

 

[Wandering Rhythmical Phoenix]

Its only been a few minutes but the anmation in this episode is crap, it conflicts too much with the background, and they forgot ome finer clothes details, clolor changes and fold lines, atleast I think. THe VAing is good.
Oh, and the music at the start sounded like it was ripped out of Tales of Symphonia and Ninjaized

 

[Pika Hikari KT]

-Markout for the Tombstone piledriver. Ouchies!^^;

-Orochimaru's voice is scary...>_<

-Double Snake Sacrifice? Obviously an edit here...I think I know what happened--Anko plunged her kunai down on both her and Orochi's hands together, but he did that Substitution Jutsu to escape.

-Tigers...in Japan?

 

[Wandering Rhythmical Phoenix]

-Tigers...in Japan?

Technicly, Naruto's world isnt Japan, but a World mexed with Past and present influences. For the sake of argumeant, lets Call it Naruto

 

[Meowth]

but the anmation in this episode is crap

Really? I thought the animation was SUPERB and it's actually the only reason I decided to watch this episode. I personally loved the style. Maybe I have bad taste...

The episode itself was enjoyable. It reminded me of why I used to like Naruto so much...

I thought the animation was too loose, It would be expected during the fight, as its alomst constant motion, but prior to and after it seemed to stay the same. I dont know, I expected a shift

 

[YoshiAngemon]

Well, we might as well wait until the next episode, where Rock Lee, or Bushy-Brow will try to take down one of the three followers of Orochimaru. He's like a handsome weird guy.

 

[whit19]

Great episode like always... But... I wasn't expectin Steven Jay Blum to use that kinda voice for Orochimaru... I thought he'd use the same voice he used for Zabuza... But I guess this one's more creepier and I heard the japanese version does make him sound woman-like.

 

[Sachiko]

They have the same voice actor?!?! Boy, I don't pay attention.

Great episode!! Orochimaru was Anko's sensei?! Weird. I loved it when Sasuke grabbed Orochimaru and they fell down a long way. That was awesome. Sasuke's Seismic Toss. =)

 

[BluekiKatana]

Great voice acting in this episode. You could really hear the agony in Sasuke's voice for this one. Not very often in anime when someone can actually act out pain well.

 

[Brock Harrison]

I agree with the great voice acting in the previous episode. Not only Sasuke, but Sakura's was superb as well. It was one of Kate Higgins' shining moments as Sakura in my opinion.

C'mon, any episode featuring Rock Lee is bound to be awesome...I'm definitely looking forward to Saturday's episode.

 

[MugenKeiji]

Anyone else besides me is PO'ed that Steven Jay Blum got Orochimaru's role? I dunno, with Studiopolis being Studiopolis, they could have snatched an Ocean actor (see Zatch Bell; Sherry) to fill in this gap. I can't recall exactly but there was one guy on Ys: Ark of Naphistism (an Ocean Project) that would have been PERFECT for Oro's voice.
