This arc so far is missing that "Naruto" feel to it that makes it such a popular series. Every single anime series has its own feel; One Piece does, Bleach does, Yu Yu Hakusho does, and Naruto does. The past couple episodes have been missing that and it's really hard to pinpoint exactly what it is. The story so far in this arc is pretty mediocre so far and it's far too predictable. Plus I think this type of archtype has already been done before in previous filler arcs. Sasame is a pretty decent new character though, and at least her design is halfway unique.moreless

Jiraiya says that they should check out the busiest outpost to get information on the Sound Village. Once they get there, it seems like a pretty rough town. Jiraiya gives Naruto and Sakura some money to buy some food and tells them to wait for him at the temple outside of town. Jiraiya finds a tavern and begins talking to some of the ladies in there. One of the women says she knows of someone who might know where the village is. She leads him into a trap. Jiraiya easily beats off the attackers and their leader recognizes Jiraiya as one of the Legendary Sanin...moreless

This was a classic Jiraiya comic hi-jinks episode. Sometimes the departures from the Japanese version go wrong. For example, "The Land of Rice Paddies? Ugh...dumb name. Overall, good job though.

Also, Naruto's reaction to Sasame being a girl was a bit over the top! Overall, great episode though! My favorite part of this was the reference and background info on Arashi, Sasame's cousin. There was more background on The Land of Sound, and Orochimaru's impact on these clans. Although I think Jiraiya can be over the top, he made a good call when he told those villains that they were pathetic to use their training for common thievery. To see the looks on their faces when they realized they were facing one one of the legendaty Sannin was hilarious. I enjoyed seeing him use his Rasengan, and the hair technique. If anyone knows what it's called, PM me. All of his abilities have not been revealed as of yet I think.moreless
