Naruto Shippuuden Episode 55 Review

While I'm disappointed that they're doing a filler arc, it's almost worth it for the opening scene in episode 55. The scene begins with Tsunade and Sakura preparing to release Kakashi from the hospital. The only thing is we learn that Naruto has basically camped out on the spare bed in Kakashi's room so he won't miss out on any training.




Complete with ass scratching and ugly boxers...




So when Naruto starts talking in his sleep, Sakura goes to wake him up in her typical manner...by yelling. And a half awake Naruto sits up, sees Sakura, and says...



The result is one of the most extreme Sakura "NAAARRUUUTOOOO!!!" faces of all time.


Absolutely priceless, LOL. (Especially, if you're not a NaruSaku fan.)

Other than the opening bit, episode 55 pretty much follows the training ground scene from chapters 315 and 316 manga. Overall, a decent episode, but nothing exceptional.
