Naruto "Ultimate Defense: Zero Blind Spot" Talkback (Spoilers)

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Japanese Title: Zero Blind Spots! Another Absolute Defense!
English Title: Ultimate Defense: Zero Blind Spot

Last Time: Shouldn't need a refresher this soon.

Tonight: Oh no! Can Naruto surpass Neji's Absolute Defense? Or is it curtains for our title character, in the battle he swore he'd win.

Characters:
Naruto Uzumaki(Age: 12, Allegiance: Leaf): Our loudmouthed protagonist, Naruto has grown up completely alone because of the 9 tailed fox sealed inside him. His one desire is to become Hokage and recieve the acknowledgment of the other villagers. His special technique is Shadow Clone Jutsu(Kage Bunshin no jutsu), and he has now learned the Summoning Jutsu(Kuchiyose no Jutsu) from Jiraiya. He’s scheduled to fight Neji in the first round of the Exam.

Neji Hyuuga(Age: 13, Allegiance: Leaf): One of Lee's teammates, Neji is the strongest genin in the Village Hidden in the leaves, and a member of the Hyuuga Branch Family. He has a very arrogant and condescending attitude. He is interested in Sasuke, but the two quickly get off on bad terms. He is very strict towards anyone he views lesser than him, especially his younger cousin Hinata. Neji is able to use the Byakugan. He is scheduled to face Naruto in the first round.

Kabuto Yakushi(Age: 18, Allegiance: Leaf): At first glance, Kabuto appears to be a nice genin, and an elder one who has failed the exam many times. In truth, Kabuto is actually a spy for Orochimaru. The true levels of his skill are unknown.

Shikamaru Nara(Age: 12, Allegiance: Leaf): Shikamaru is one of the 9 Rookies who graduated from the Academy this year. He's extremely lazy and complainis about everything. Shikamaru is also a good tactician, which he uses in conjunction with his Shadow Possession Jutsu(Kage Mane no jutsu). He is scheduled to face Temari in the first round.

Sakura Haruno(Age: 12, Allegiance: Leaf): Naruto and Sasuke's teammate. While she has book smarts, her field abilities are very low. She's rivals with her friend Ino Yamanaka, who had always been there for her. Sakura grew her hair out because she heard Sasuke liked girls with long hair, but she cut it during the heat of battle. Sakura wants to surpass Ino.

Kiba Inuzuka(Age: 12, Allegiance: Leaf): One of Naruto's classmates, Kiba has a really cocky attitude. He also is always with his dog, Akamaru. Akamaru has the ability to sense enemies chakra. Kiba and Akamaru fight with their Beast Human Clone(Juujin Bushin) and Fang over Fang(Gatsuuga). Kiba was defeated by Naruto in the Preliminaries.

Hinata Hyuuga(Age: 12, Allegiance: Leaf): A genin who is extremely shy, Hinata deeply admires Naruto and has ever since their days in the academy. She always blushes and gets quiet around Naruto, but he can’t figure out why she does. Hinata is from the Main Family of the Hyuuga clan, but her father, the Clan Head, dismissed her as a failure. She has a lot of self-confidence issues which stem back towards this, but she doesn’t want to let her teammates down. Hinata was defeated by Neji in the Preliminaries.

Ino Yamanaka(Age: 12, Allegiance: Leaf): Ino is Sakura's friend and rival. Like Sakura, she has a crush on Sasuke. She gets extremely competitive with Sakura. Despite that, when Sakura was about to be killed by Zaku, Ino stepped in to fight with all her heart. She's teammates with Shikamaru and Choji. Her special technique is the Mind Transfer Jutsu(Shintenshin no jutsu).

3rd Hokage(Age: 68, Allegiance: Leaf): The wise leader of the Village Hidden By Leaves, he is the strongest ninja in the whole village. He looks out for all of the villagers, and is revered by everone.

Genma Shiranui(Age: 29, Allegiance: Leaf): The badass, senbon in mouth, proctor for the main fights of the 3rd Exam.

The Kazekage: The leader of the Village Hidden in the Sand, he has travelled to the Leaf in order to watch the Exam.

Hiashi Hyuuga(Age: 41, Allegiance: Leaf): Hinata's father, he has never been too kind of a parent. He is the leader of the Leaf's Hyuuga Clan.

Hanabi Hyuuga(Age: 7, Allegiance: Leaf): Hinata's younger sister, she has already surpassed Hinata and has been named the heir to the Hyuuga Clan.

Spoilers: Don't post any unnecessary spoilers, be courteous to those watching these episodes for the first time.

If you find some of the action in this episode to be familiar, it's because the animators ripped it from the fighting scene on the train in Cowboy Bebop the Movie.

If by 'ripped off' you mean they were done by the same animation team, then yes...

Whoa! Copy ninjas indeed.

[NahMan85]

Did anyone like the 64 chakra hit? Oh yeah I think there may be a backstory coming.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Did anyone like the 64 chakra hit?

Neji's "Hakkerokujuuyonshou" is one of the best jutsu in the series, imho.

The attack was pretty cool. The name of the attack sounds a bit odd, however.

[Strollymonster]

Neji's "Hakkerokujuuyonshou" is one of the best jutsu in the series, imho.

Seconded, if only because it's a lot of fun to watch.

As per usual shonen anime, we will soon get an angsty backstory that will have some effect on Naruto and reinvigorate him, undoubtedly.

[Strollymonster]

Heh, Kabuto's feeling up Hinata

Another Naruto character that rocks the face tattoos...he and Jiraiya should start a club.

[NahMan85]

oops there they go. Quite sad to.

Eight Divination Signs, Sixty-Four Palms of the Hand eh?

Well....

Spoiler:

Of course this is a shonen anime where there is ALWAYS a more powerful version of Attack X...

[Nin-Nin69]

Both are stolen from a Bruce Lee movie. Naruto tends to have a lot of stuff that goes back to different kung-fu flicks.

*coughFillercough*

[zmanjz]

*coughFillercough*

lol, I have to laugh when people claim "filler!" in a show that consists of more filler than cannon. It's like pointing at the sky and yelling "BLUE!"

And for the record, I really have no problem with "Filler" so long as it's interesting.....

but I digress.

[Dead_Ninja_000]

Blah blah blah blah,,, I came all this way to watch a fight not a sopa opra.

hinata's sooo cute.

[Strollymonster]

I always wonder how come nobody in the crowd is going "C'mon FIGHT!!!" BOOOOOOO

Even moreso when you consider there's practically no chance that anyone in the audience can hear them.

Looks like our favorite demon fox is coming to visit again....

[Space Cadet]

Was this episode uncut?

[NahMan85]

Blah blah blah blah,,, I came all this way to watch a fight not a sopa opra.

hinata's sooo cute.

Then just stay tuned for the next ep. Nothing dramatic about this one.
