Toonami Naruto Marathon: Episodes 26-30

[Kanadian Kyuubi]

Tonight on Hidden Leaf TV, a 2 hour live Forest of Death special event! First on Hidden Leaf News, our junior reporter Konohamaru is going to bringing to us live pre-game coverage of the 2nd round of the Chunnin Exams!

Then, the Forest of Death Challenge begins! Chouji is packing his Strawberry Sponge Cake (among other things), Hinata is being cute as usual, and Naruto is...shaking his booty in Kiba's face?!

Next, Naruto gets sidetracked by a giant snake and Sasuke and Sakura are paying the bills for a Hidden Grass Ninja with even more secrets than you thought!

Then, we learn the ultimate Konoha Kuestion: When is the best time for a Ninja to strike? But here if you get it right and you are dressed like Naruto, you instantly lose!

​

Wait. Todays Friday, isnt it? THats what my Computer says, so that would mean the marathons on TOMORROW... right?

At any rate, I'm looking forward to it. I hope this arc got transfered well to anime, for some of the BEST battles that ive seen are here.

And some of the worst.

Sakura for the fail.

 

[Haruka's Swimsuit]

I forget, which episode did Shonen Jump USA refer to as "Everybody loves Ino"?

 

[Kamex]

I liked the Miyazaki movies but I'm glad we're back to Naruto now. I'm gonna enjoy these new episodes.

 

[Rex Kamex]

Two things:

1. Most of the screenshots in the dub intro were changed.

2. Okay, the Toonami announcer calls Orochimaru a snake, yet Saskue and Sakura call him a "she".

 

[ArrEmmDee]

I'm doubting it, but if anyone watched Transformers at 7, could they PM me the basic premise? If Starscream was in it, I'm totally going to have to wake up for 5:30 AM on Friday to see the rerun. u.u

...this is a Naruto thread, y'know.

 

[ArrEmmDee]

...this is a Naruto thread, y'know.

But it mentions Toonami. It's at least worth a try. 8<

They made a new one.

2. Okay, the Toonami announcer calls Orochimaru a snake, yet Saskue and Sakura call him a "she".

That's because he's still in diguise at this point...

 

[Wandering Rhythmical Phoenix]

They changed the opening movie, but you cant save a bad opening theam.
I dont know, I think I'm loosing my faith in the dub. The manga didnt call whats his faces desgise a girl IIRC. There are fewer blood edits from what I saw, and that mind trick thing, wernt therer Kunai in Sasuke and Sakura's heads?

 

[WaterTrainer243]

I was watching the show myself and I'm a little creeped out at that snake demon. If I were in that show at that very moment, I'd be scared ****less right now.

 

[spacefissure]

Sweet! A nice Naruto marathon to make up for the four Naruto-less weeks. And now things get serious.

 

[Judai Yuki]

Err i didnt see the 9:30 one did that one show.I could've sworn the comer said next week.

 

[Mimori Kiryu]

I told my TV to record on the wrong channel, so I missed the first new episode, but I caught the other two. They were pretty good, though I can't wait until [spoil]Sasuke fights the Otonin Ninjas. It's kinda weird since he's fighting with hatred and stuff, but it's still good.[/spoil]. It's also cute with the little friendship thing Sasuke and Naruto had. It's so cute.

 

[Tip The Waitress]

all of the above mentioned eps are good, but the first one is just a recap....which stinks IMO.

 

[CM]

Wow, the dub is nearly perfect now. I loved Sasuke and Naruto's performance in this episode. (29, I believe)

Though it is disappointing even the DVD version of the episode had Brian Peppers Naruto. Though I guess they really couldn't have done that much for that episode.

Oh well, great episodes. Can't wait for the following weeks. (Kind of sucks that Toonami is now two weeks behind Canada, though.)

 

[Kamex]

Interesting episodes, I'm glad they had this marathon.

They did do as I feared, though, and have the same instrumental music from the last theme with new clips, rather than make a song. :/

 

[YoshiAngemon]

I kinda liked it when Naruto had to go to the bathroom, and Sakura punched him in the back of the head. "This isn't a kennel! GO FIND A BUSH SOMEWHERE!

 

[Kanadian Kyuubi]

Erm, the theme song DOES have lyrics, if "RISE!" and "Do your stuff!" count as lyrics...more like random shouts (that aren't in the credits music).
