This episode is the beginning of the ninja war. No more fillers. Bout time. Also, come here when the episode is released.

Someone got a bit ahead of themselves lol

[Sasuke]

It is good to be back in cannon again, I can't wait for the episode after the next one, and hopefully it will end similar to how episode 167 ended.

[Uzumaki Mako]

Can't wait to see it

Spoiler:

I am from egypt

[Marcus123]

Felt a little short, seen some fillers better then this one tbh but still good to be back on track though. I think the next episode will be a bit of the same just ordinary, episode 245 will be when it gets good again in my opinion.

[PurpleFlash]

Yeah, I think the same. Really cool to be back without the fillers.

I thought the episode itself was great and funny(some of the animation bits were worse than subpar(for example I think Naruto's sexy jutsu looked like a man in one scene) but that's to be expected at this point ).

But I thought the new ending was gay. I actually LIKE yaoi but why do they have to shove it down our throats >.>.

Fantastic episode. It's been a while since I've downloaded a Naruto Shippuden episode, but I'm definitely getting this one on my PS3.

There are 2 new tracks too. The first when Killer Bee entered in the squid scene and the second one when Naruto met his dark self. I even got a liking to the latter, since it had an enigmatic feeling to it. It's also pretty rare for me to like a Shippuden track, but this one was pretty good.

Well, Shippuden is about stalker Naruto trying to get his lover Sasuke back anyway. I guess they just wanted to remind us of this. It really felt like NaruSasu though, since Naruto looked like a stalker, and he wanted to hug Sasuke out of the darkness at the end.

Fixed . I just hate it because I hate the thought of Naruto and Sasuke in a romantic relationship >.<. Although I have doubts about Sasuke's end of things, I really don't believe Naruto's feelings for Sasuke go beyond friendship/brotherly. The anime can get so bias at times though -_-.

[Soliqe]

I literally did a fan boy scream when I saw the preview for this episode. IT'S ABOUT FREAKING TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xD

[Sasuke]

I also forgot to mention that the episode was nicely done with great animation. The next episode doesn't look too bad animation wise either, I hope they keep this consistency.

[Naruto Namikazi]

I REALLY want that music that played when Killer bee started rapping it was pretty cool i liked it. Can't wait to see how Naruto kicks the ass out of his dark side

[Black Owl]

I enjoyed the episode, especially the Killer bee parts.

Killer bee sumo wrestling that Panda was awesome, I loved the facial expression on the other Pandas/Bears.

And Naruto's rapping is epic!

I love seeing evil Naruto, I always have a thing for seeing the good guys as bad guys and vice versa. So seeing evil Naruto is fun for me

[tsuki]

Yay, no more filler.

Spoiler:

Until it starts up again, lol

[Sajuuk]

Loved this episode, always wanted to see how the anime makers would create Dark Naruto. Should be a pretty interesting set of episodes

[GeniusKage]

Possibly Bee but his Manager (Raikage) asking for too much but we trying to work some things out... and be checking WorldStar for Naruto first single " Perfect Culo, Sexy No Jutsu Ft Pit Bull and Dj Khaled" and we going on tour after the War on Terror...

Yea i agree with you because 244 will based on Naruto fighting his evil self

[Naruto Namikazi]

It sure was a loooooong 1 and a half (maybe 2) months of waiting, at least now we know that we will get some satisfactory. But seriously this episode was pretty cool, i love how Naruto started rapping XD XD

[naruto akippuden]

Love to see the story back on track.

Thought it was funny hearing in the beginning of the episode Naruto saying taco, taco taco. . . Calling for Octo-Dude.

I wonder if in Japan people think of Taco Bell (Octo Bell)
