Peep the very end if you want an EXTRA... 2 minutes
Kimi is cool :3
Watching this when I was a kid, thought it this stuff was the coolest episodes. But coming from an adult standpoint like... Come on they could have no diffed these guys if they actually tried. Like neji just shuts down the chakra system of them all and all these guys slap. Like get em.
Much love brotha , love ur naruto journey
❤
Are you going to do shippuden Canon after this?
For me this is the best arc of Naruto. When boys become men.
agree
This. This is why I didn't hate not having the girls come along, because seeing their arcs and growth as people was so much more satisfying for me, even as a young girl. It's the arc I still feel was best written in the early part of Naruto.
Neji really went from losing to 1 uppercut to winning after being stabbed 20 times. Must have respec’ed his stats.
Yeah... Whats up with Neji and uh... Always ending up with a bunch of stuff sticking out of his back....
1 uppercut from a jinchuriki though with bijuu power
Neji is such a genius, he taught himself gentle fist art: body blow to free himself from the webs, he figured out how to counter the Byakugan blind spot, and he upgraded from 64 palms to 128 palms all in a single fight
Almost 2 decades later and the end of choji's fight still hurts
I still almost cried
A note about the bird symbolism with Neji, the reason the last thing we see with him is a flying bird is because he had said that his curse mark made him like a bird in a cage, and he had always equated his curse mark with his destiny/fate. In that fight he was able to shape his destiny, defeating someone far stronger than him, so we see a free bird in his last moments to symbolize him freeing himself from what his past self would think is a predetermined fate. Him losing his headband was the turning point as well, revealing his curse mark (his bird cage), and it’s when he accepts he can’t dodge the next attack but he can still decide how the battle ends. That was when he unlocked his cage, taking control of his life
Choji’s clan, the Akimichi clan, eats food in order to gain chakra, and use an ability called “calorie-conversion” to convert their fat to chakra in order to obtain that monster strength
What I think most people don't realize about this arc is that it's not a rescue mission to stop Sasuke from abandoning his vilage, it's a mission to precent orochimaro to have access to the Sharingan, sasuke is not only the last Uchiha in the village, He has the potential to recreate his clan if they just let him go in 20 years or so orochimaru could have an army of Uchihas
0mg eating and watching
"This last attack...is worth my WHOLE LIFE!" goes so absolutely hard.
I'm surprised you judged Shikamaru so harshly when he sensed Choji. It's perfectly in his character to prioritize the mission and respect the sacrifice that Choji was making. If he turns back or makes a fuss in that moment, not only is he putting the mission in jeopardy but he's also diminishing the point of his best friends sacrifice. People like Naruto or Kiba would turn back immediately in that instance which would have ruined the mission. Shikamaru knows this and handles his emotions better than anyone else, which is why he was the ONLY one to be promoted to Chunin and was hand selected by the hokage herself to lead the team to retrieve Sasuke!
My boy Raiju forgot about the Soft Fist technique of Neji. He sent Hinata into cardiac arrest with just rapid multiple small injections of chakra, imagine what it could do with a full direct internal infusion
ChojixShikamaru best bromance in the show. Followed by GuyKashi and the boys from the Land of Lightning
This Neji fight is so *underrated* I thought this was the best one I've seen in this show so far when I first saw this almost 2 decades ago. The whole time he was just trying to figure out where spida was so he can melee his as$, he was trying so hard not to get hit but in the end getting hit solves the problem. Also, it showcases Naruto's greatest jutsu of all, the talk-nojutsu
"No wonder you guys aren't chunin".... exactly, they're just muscle-heads. 😂
I hear what you're saying about shikamarus plan but when ninja are given a mission, their lives always come second. Even as kids they must be willing to sacrifice themselves to complete the mission. That's their mindset and how they live.
Which is also why the academy was made, and why it still feels like too young but they are forced to grow up far too quickly because of the world around them. Makes me respect Naruto more later on when he changes this a lot.
The whole deal of retrieving Sasuke is more than just a factor of losing a friend or a ninja. As bad as it may sound, the reason the village would most likely be willing to sacrifice ninjas like Chouji and Neji is because of Sasuke being the last Uchiha the village has. Considering the Uchiha clan's unique bloodline ability and the factor that the Sharingan is one of the most coveted abilities in that world (like how Orochimaru wanted Sasuke so much and Itachi's whole ability pool), in a political and "For the good of the village" standpoint, Sasuke is simply an asset they can't lose. Add to the fact that outside our happy bubble of Naruto's group, Ninjas are regarded as tools and weapons for the village, and the fact that Neji, Chouji, Kiba, and Shikamaru are all one member of hundreds of clan members, losing them won't be that big of a repercussion compared to Sasuke. Note that I am, however, stating this from the village's perspective, not Shika's, even if as a Chunin, he would've been told about that.
Yep losing Sasuke especially to orochimaru is a dangerous loss
this is correct from one pov but the other thing is sasuke is and will be treated more favourably just because he is a friend of the main character later as well a lot of times
and it is also not consistent with the village stance on you know what (to avoid spoilers)
after a while of thinking I thing there is another explanation. for the village this mission is not about bringing sasuke back, it's more about not letting ninja hitler to get and use him. if sasuke comes back on his own - great. forcefully or kia - that's not bad either as long as orochimaru's plan fails
Nartuo isn't that great at keeping up with it's own world building, but it was established back in the very first season, that if a ninja deserts the village, the village has to send ninjas after them to kill them, and destroy their body. Because the enemies of the village can extract valuable information, village secrets and ninja techniques even from a dead body. In terms of Sasuke being the only person with the sharingan, it's basically an equivalent of a person knowing the nuclear launch code deserting to another country
So a note about the symbolism especially about the Shikamaru team
Ino Shika Chou is a reference to a hand of Hanafuda cards.
It's called that simply because it's the name of the animals depicted on the cards.
Boar, Deer and Butterfly.
Which is why Chouji had a whole butterfly motif, he is the butterfly of the hand.
Likewise when Sakurainsulted ino she'd call her a pig and such. Because she is the boar.
ino means pig
Holy crap, and that's why Shikamaru sees a deer in a family forest in Shippuden?
That's so cool! I never knew that!
Woah 🤯
Oh that makes so much sense why shikamaru has the deer scene later in Shippuden
Just finished your reaction to 114. Chouji went from comical relief to the coolest guy in the series in three episodes. I can't watch his death without crying to this day. Chouji is the best!
Second coolest, Lee still exists. Lol
Choji is one of my favorite part of the pain assult
Something to mention about the proctor and the other Jonin (special Jonin actually, not full Jonin) is that the manga makes it clear that both of them are exhausted since they’re on their way back from a mission. It also implies that the only reason the Shikamaru team, who are all Genin, are able to fight them and win is because the two Jonin exhausted and pushed the Sound 4 so much. Finally, the Sound 4 are a lot stronger as a team. Orochimaru set them up so they’re best when they jump someone together. So splitting them up made them each weaker too.
everybody's covered the Ino-Shika-Chō explanation for why butterflies are so significant to Chōji, specifically, but the symbolism works on an extra level towards the end. in Japan, butterflies have longstanding mythological significance as the ones who carry the souls of the departed to the afterlife. seeing them gather as he collapses at the foot of the tree, and staying with his body, is almost as if they are trying to keep his soul tethered.
as for Neji, man.....the amount of GROWTH his character sees from his throwdown with Naruto to here is just staggering. he's so good
The way he guides the arrow with string is pretty much how a TOW missile works lol not too unrealistic ;p
The author of the Manga actually wanted to kill neji during his fight with nock off Spiderman, the editor told him he couldn't.
The goal isn’t to get Sasuke back, it’s to keep him from orichimaru
"We cooking this show because we hungry" then an ad pops up... for the food network.
Nice timing.
Self reporting on not having premium 😬😬😬 /s
The spider guy saying they went all out against Genma and the other dude...tf kind of battle was that??!
kiba calling someone dead weight and the weak link is hilarious. i can't breathe.
A thing that's really lost in translation is the significance of the names Team 10 members have. Ino is boar (hence the nonsensical "Ino-pig" insult), Shika is deer (hence their family deer forest) and Cho is butterfly (hence the caccoon/butterfly motif). Ino-shika-cho is a combination in a Japanese card game. That's also the reason why every member of each of the three families has their animal in their names
"I'm basically Rock Lee now"
My man, I'm dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The red pill is actually survivable but his body isnt ready yet to withstand the recoil effect. We could say this is why green and yellow exist: to train the body for the red. It is too soon for him to use the red pill and he even hasnt train on green pill yet as he was surprised on the green pill recoil.
The Meg vibes on Kiba are so accurate 😂
I never thought hearing “He’s a Super Ginger now!” would make me laugh so much😅😂
I truly enjoy Kishimoto’s brilliant creativity in abilities and strategy. Always unique and useful in battle 🙂😄
You might not know, but Ino Shkia Cho is a formation of cards in a Japanese card game. It actually translates to "Boar, Deer, Butterfly". You will later find out how Shikamaru is related to deers. Now you found out how Cho is related to butterflies. From my knowledge there's never a point in time when Ino is shown to somehow relate to boars, but I'd guess when she's doing the mind transfer jutsu upon you it's like a boar would come trampling at and over you ^_^ As a matter of fact there's a very old arcade fighting game, Samurai Shodown, where a competitor, a samurai named Kibagami Genjuro (if I remember correctly), over a three in a row connecting moves, declares "Ino Shika Cho" and you can really see a lot of playing cards drawn on the screen.
Why are people saying this is the final arc? I get the fillers are fillers but if people watched them they would notice some of the fillers actually get mentioned like the arc of team 7 helping team Gaara in season 9
It's the final "manga canon" arc. And yes the fillers get occasionally mentioned later but they never impact the story in any significant way other than showing some characters interacting and bonding a bit more. That doesn't mean the fillers are bad, they are just not necessary for the main story.
Watching weekly as a kid that choji shit had me in shambles
Me too. He's always been a favorite of mine.
This is Naruto, bittersweet.
Getting to watch you watch Naruto for the first time is as close as I can get to watching it for the first time myself again. Cheers man.
Man if you love shikimaru this much right now your gonna love him in naruto shippuden and im very excited for it.
man I know it’s gonna be a great weekend when raiju uploads!❤🤞🏼
Been PATIENTLY waiting for this.
Always excited for your reactions!! I tear up no matter how many times I watch these episodes!😢
I remember being SO shocked at how actually cool Choji looks with butterfly wings of all things lmao. As a kid I wasn't even a Choji fan like my cousin Ryan, but even I was standing on the couch by this point screaming.
Shikamaru said "it's nothing" about Choji because he didn't want to worry the team during their mission, he is a leader now
Shikamaru had to grow up for real and realize what kind of world he lives in
Long time follower, first time reactior. Love your videos. Big shout out to your editing. I had a lot of fun. Keep it up!
Let's Gooo!! Great content as always, I can't wait for the second part. This arc is such an amazing coming of age story for the gang but I remember it tearing my heart out the first time.
It still does for me and it's been decades
I just stumbled upon your channel and I binged watched your Naruto reactions. Can’t wait til you upload some more. Man you got me hooked. Wish you upload everyday now lol and hope your channel grows BIG! 👍
apparently the writer actually wanted to kill choji and neji off in this arc (except naruto) to add emotional depth but was talked out of it due the characters likeability and that it would make sasuke too hated, thats why the fights end so ominously
Yes🎉 more Naruto from you always makes my day! Hope you continue the series!
I love your vids, keep it up
Best react channel. Love you man. Kee up the awesome content.
This arc is commonly referred to by the fanbase as "the arc where boys became men" and for good reason. That Choji arc is one of my favorites in the entire series tbh, I've seen it dozens of times and it still hits right in the feels. Glad to see you're enjoying the show, can't wait to see you continue this journey into shippuden 🤘
Every tyme you drop a video I end up watching the whole playlist again, these are so oo god
Never clicked on a video so ..... love this arc and was waiting for your reaction😂
Bro, I got secondhand hyped just watching Choji battle. I love him and Shikamaru's friendship more than Naruto and Sauske's tbh. YAS CHOJI GO! F----- I teared up. I'm so freaking happy that they left him notes and are such great friends to him. It gets me everytime. Also, the butterfly is symbolism in the Akamichi clan for their main power-up, as you see here. It's the best symbolism I feel Kishimoto did for a character. The crow for Neji is both death and freedom. Crows typically are meant as bad omens, unchangable paths, but a bird is also freer than Neji felt growing up under so much pressure. It's cool how these fights are the realest ones we see as the kids are so young, and Shippuden gets more mature and darker later on. I'm looking forward to reliving the rest with you. I'm glad you didn't stop after Choji's fight. I remember it being weekly and I couldn't stand the wait to see if he was alive, and so I held on for many many weeks lol.
Thank you for the hour long episode ❤❤ much appreciated compared to the 2 or 3 episode format
Butterfly Choji is so cool, he was my main back in the og Naruto fighting games
Great reaction. Best of luck to your channel!
The clips of Meg have me dying 😂😂😂 "Oh Meg, you're okay!" 🤣
what is this timing I just bought pizza and now raiju uploads this guy probably has a spidey sense for whenever im bored 😭🙏
this is the arc I was waiting for and the best is yet to come! Ifyky. Lets just say a certain someone comes back and he has such a great fight.
Also props for calling Kiba Meg!!! That had me laughing so hard
It occurred to me watching this that the reason it's life or death for getting Sasuke back has less to do with the leafs love for Sasuke and more to do with its fear of Orochimaru getting the Sharingan. He wants to get Sasukes body which wouldn't be good for the Leaf if he does.
Such a good arc! Everyone gets some shine.
Why is no one talking bout the shut up Meg jokes with kina they're honestly top tier 😂😂
so hyped for the rest of this arc 🔥
i laughed way too hard at "its just hide and seek" wonderful reaction once again!
I was waiting for this🔥🔥
Love the content men.
So the reason they’re so desperate to get Sasuke back isn’t really for Sasuke himself, even if that’s what they’re telling these kids/genin. Firstly, they don’t want to lose the Sharingan. Sasuke is the only one who still has one and who can make babies for more Uchiha in the future. Kakashi’s wasn’t always his as is apparent and he can only use it so effectively compared to a real Uchiha.
The more pressing issue is that they don’t want Orochimaru to take Sasuke’s body and get the Sharingan. He’s already powerful enough to kill two Kage. He does not need more hax abilities.
Yeeeeesss dude youre here! I have goosebumps and I'm only ten seconds in
Been waiting for this!
I started watching Naruto when I was like 10 years old, almost 29 now. I don't really fuck with Boruto all that much but Naruto was my gateway into anime and Japan. I have watched all your videos so far. Just seeing your genuine first reaction to things is so fun and heartwarming. It almost like when you watch a friend enjoy something you recommended
I was waiting forever to watch your next reaction to Naruto. 🤣 Finally.
The thing I like about Naruto is that every character has their own backstory and it's awesome.
40:02 dudes just casually flipping us the bird lmao
I was so excited for this
Proctor 1 - "dead"
Proctor 2 - protec
Put some respect on my man genma
We finally made it to the sound 4 fights!
Don't know if anyone has said this yet, but, to note why he was able to hit with those arrows is two fold: For one, they are fired FAST. For two, the strand of web connected to the arrow allows him to control the direction of that arrow, with the chakra flowing through it
30:17 Raiju's face completely tells how we all felt after the butterflies 🦋 🦋 🦋. Sasuke retrieval arc is top notch imo just for the feels!
Uuuu can't wait for the next binge. See each of them fighting and an unexpected assist came to the rescue
Great reaction as usual, you crack me up man 🤣🤣🤣 just a little sidenote; they are not just "rescuing" sasuke, because he's their friend or important to them or whatever, they have to actually retrieve him, because his jutsu and kekkei genkai (sharingan) could be used against the leaf one day if they fall into the wrong hands.
i love how he said tsunade sounded tired when she pulled up with the sake 🤣
Love how Choji breaks out of the earth-dome and turns into a butterfly. His moment of transformation.
i forgot how emotional this arc is, had me almost crying lmao
To be fair they sent a group of rookies to fight experienced ninjas who beat 2 elite leafs ninjas, trusted by orochimaru to keep black ops from interfering in his fight with the homage etc. no matter how smart you are the power difference is too much
“Sometimes your eyes are better than mine” all time quote
32:30 - Raiju: "i thought he was the leader."
*Several Episodes Back* "you Sasuke, are our new leader." - one of them says as they bow to him
The generational friendship of ino shika cho makes me happy
Choja knew shikamaru already. Its his best friends son
His names Recome, and it rhymes, with doom aaaaaaaaand you're gonna be hurtin, all! Too! Soon!
Rip neji and choji 😢
The little “shut up meg” scene made me pause the video, i was laughing so hard.. that was comedy in multiple layers lmao
Edit: he added so many more layers.. genius editing..
Shut up kiba
That Choji and Shikamaru scene is low key a plot hole cuz their dad's know each other personally
Using kimi's theme so early ah I love it
17:30 - Food Pills are closer to like Mana Potions in RPGs, they restore lost Chakra, but do feck-all for healing the body. as for the ones Choji had, they're a family recipe...
First, let's go you're back!
Playing with the curse markes in Naruto, ultimate ninja 3.Was so much fun
"I was about to buy a gun and shoot my screen" Lmao!! Remember YT, If the proctor dies, we riot!
Fun fact! Kishimoto wanted to kill Neji here but his editors wouldn't let him.
the opening track that plays at the start of the Sasuke retrieval arc, "Seishun Kyousoukyoku", is my favourite Naruto opening, and somehow it added such a cool vibe to this arc, y'know?
Jirobo was projecting so hard on his fight with Choji.
DAMN SOOO MUCH PEAK IN ONE VIDEO
