Episode 342 was awesome. Talk about production value.

They began revealing tobi's identity (Obito), and they explained his transportation technique. Next episode his face is revealed.

Guy really lived up to his nickname in the newest episode, i loved it
I'm hype for the next episode too

i've been getting excited for the recent episodes, they're finally back on track

Yeah, it's been a nice streak
It's still a little weird how super supportive kurama has gotten so quickly, but it's pretty nice

it wasn't so quickly, it took him over 500 episodes

i never read the manga so i never expected orochimaru's return haha can't wait to see what he has in store this time, and im also I'm p. hyped for the up coming eps c:

I believe that the manga will finish before this year ends, or early next year. Either way, I'm sticking to reading up and finishing the manga.

Yeah, but I didn't expect him to be so friendly once they officially teamed up.


I'm gonna avoid the manga because now that I have found a reliable source for reading it, it's just a little too late for me imo

I envy you.

That's how I wanted to experience the series, but after getting so many big things spoiled for me I decided to start the manga.

I never read the manga, it's already about 500 episodes too late for me
Probably good for me because ppl that usually read the manga stop watching the show because they think the show has way too many fillers.
Honestly, the only real time the fillers bothered me was right after the pain arc because the fillers are usually funny or kinda help out but the stretch after pain was ridiculous.

It's not too late for you. You wouldn't start from the very beginning, you would just start at the point in the story that you're up to.

That's what I did when I started reading the manga a couple years ago. Why would you start at the beginning, you know all of that already. Naruto the anime doesn't differ much from the manga at all.

But ever since I started reading the manga I still watch the anime. I always prefer the anime over a manga.

Yeah I prefer anime over manga too.
Maybe it's the effects & voice actors, not to mention the fluent motion..

But hey, the manga is more correct than the anime. Not saying the anime is a bad thing or anything.

lol not 'more correct', whatever that means
the manga might have more content though

How is it "more correct"?

The pros of watching the anime are

it's animated (watching action scenes > reading action scenes)
voice acting
soundtrack
openings and endings!
all these things add to all aspects of the series. Sad scenes are sadder, action scenes are more intense, etc. With voice acting and a sound track it's much easier to feel the emotions they are trying to get you to feel.

Pros of reading manga
It's farther than the anime
no filler
I wouldn't consider this a pro but some people prefer the manga because it takes less time to catch up.

Depends on the filler really. Like I said, the filler after pain was a little tedious, but for the most part, the filler episodes are either awesome or hilarious, like when naruto was on the ship fighting his clones/eating mushrooms or when tsunade & ay were arm wrestling
