This is a rambling and not a rant because I'm not sure I'm making any sort of point -- it's just babbling about my thoughts. u_u;;
Okay, first off, if you haven't downloaded the latest Naruto ep yet... My humble opinion is that it's blah and uninspired. Not HORRIBLE, but... mediocre. Nothing made me scream (the art wasn't very good sometimes, but ehh), but I was so bored. =_=; (also what the fuck is it with their obsession with shoving Hinata and Naruto into the same team. There are other characters damn it, stop pushing for NaruHina moments)
The one thing I thought canon-ish was that Kiba and Naruto kept fighting to lead the team. Not that the rest was blatant fanon, or worse, total OOC/Did You Even Watch The Show -- but it was also very generic, if that makes sense. So they do this, and then they do that -- nothing special. After the Sea Monster arc, I was expecting a little better -- some scope, a feeling that they were doing something mildly important. It didn't happen. It felt about as plotful as a one-shot ep. Maybe it will change, next ep, but. Blah. I don't like the main gimmick so I doubt I'll enjoy it.
