Wholeheartedly agree! His voice acting is soo full of character that i wonder if it would have the same impact as it did if i experienced his character through the manga instead.
Honestly this is probably one of my FAVORITE FIGHTS in Shippuden. So glad we are able to enjoy this with you. Honestly really thinking about getting your Patreon so i can watch even more episodes with you!!! You turned me into your biggest fanboy😵💫
@@vincegalila7211 he barely animates anymore, just does random under the radar things. kishimoto asked him specifically and some other sakugos to animate naruto (the fights)
We forget that Shikamaru is literally just a kid. The level of maturity, wisdom and teamwork he displays with Kakashi is awe inspiring. Shikamaru could very well be a very deserving Hokage in the future! One of my favorite characters!
21:13 look at that PRECIOUS SMILE and how hype and happy you sounded wheneve you realized Shikamarus plan, i really love how INTRIGUED you get for Naruto Shippuden. It makes me so happy that someone appreciates this amazing Anime like i did. By the way lovee love loveee the little hype dances you do when the OSTs come. NEVER CHANGE FLEXIE WE LOVE YOU.❤
In the first Kakashi sub part they wrote in the audio of a substitution when he went behind tbe tree to let the viewer know it was a substitution for that one
Kakuzu originated from Takigakure, the Village Hidden in Waterfalls. He served his village loyally until he failed a mission to assassinate the First Hokage Hashirama Senju. Despite the extreme risk involved in such a mission, Kakuzu was forced to endure painful punishment for his failure. Kakuzu thus began to loathe his village for punishing him for failing to kill an impossible foe, which would eventually lead him to steal the village's forbidden jutsu Earth Grudge Fear and kill the village elders to obtain their hearts, which he consumed using the forbidden jutsu. Kakuzu then became a bounty hunter on the black market and kept himself alive for three generations by harvesting the organs of various ninjas. At some point, Kakuzu joined Akatsuki and became the organization's treasurer. During his time in the organization, he had many partners but killed them due to becoming annoyed with them. He was eventually partnered with Hidan, who was also immortal. His age is said to be 91 years old.
@@FlexiejayAnime Don't sell yourself short. It was a very good guess - more than you knew at that time. I'm assuming you are a few episodes ahead already, so you know what I'm talking about 😄
the fighting here was so well done, so satisfying, lovely choreography :) the reveal of Kakuzu's abilities was great as well :) and the little hint of his age was quite a shocker, that he faced the 1st Hokage, dude is ancient :D interesting how he mentioned that there is no such thing as pure immortality, with multiple characters either trying to achieve it or having some way of getting there, but its never straightforward thats true :)
Kakuzu is be like: "We are Akatsuki. We will add your heart and chakra distinctiveness to our own. Your jutsu will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. 😉
Man these two got super hyper mega confident and that killed them, they would have gone seriously without talking and shits and would have murdered them all, had many times to do so.
@@keinyihernandez It`s often the case in Manga/Anime. If enemys would not talk, talk and talk to the heros AND strike everytime when they could most battles would be over very soon. But than the story would be over very soon, too. Like the Borg in Star Trek. ^^
Well that little thing is what kills them, cell against the goku and his friends, freezer as well, majin bu as well, sasori too, pain too, these two zombies and many more others have die because of it, they wait too much for the hero to get stronger.
Sorry I have been gone for a while I had multiple family emergencies lately. I do want to say again how much I love Kakashi and how amazing him and Shikamaru are in these episodes. Shikimaru's momements to shine are obvious but but I find it so cool that Kakashi's abilities remain so relavent and significant in the story despite being one of the 1st mentors he hasn't been completely outgrown. His Lighting Blade really came in a clutch here both for taking out 1 of Kakazu's hearts and for defense against the lightining attack. Then his Sharigan was able to predict their moves both determining Kakazu's style of jitsu and like Hidan said Kakashi is the 1st to ever survive their combo attack. Way to stay strong Kakashi!
One thing I know he is like one of the smartest people on that show, to playing like that 34 steps ahead of the enemy that is really op, Annabelle is not always the strongest person that win is the smartest😊
This is one of the best fights in Naruto, great tactics, great use of jutsu and elements, great characters and at the same time it is fairly "down to earth" compared to fights later.
fell asleep last night watching the 83-84 reaction , I told myself if there's a god out there she will upload the next parts soon !! MY FAITH NEVER WAIVEREDDDDD !!!!!
It's not easy to take down Kakashi in a 1-on-1 fight. The first reason is because he has the Sharingan and secondly he is the smartest ninja since genin and has a Sensei who is smarter than him. 4th Hokage Minato Namikaze.
Basically kakuzu was sent to assassinate the first hokage but as you can imagine failed horribly. So when his village elders imprisoned him for failing he broke out, stole their hearts and forbidden jutzu. And boom the heart bandit was born
i forgot all the little details in this fight, so kakashi's fake outs are stressing me out. i can't live like this 😭 my heart's gonna fail before any villain can even use it lmao. shikamaru gave us an oscar-worthy performance, meryl streep is shaking rn. wish he would've faked injured longer though so kakuzu got stabbed more. but hey it was a great plan. and now our mc is gonna mc-ing. can't wait for next episode!
11:01 Such a BOSS move! ALWAYS three steps ahead, no he wasnt tring to get you with the shadow, no he wasnt trying to get you with the kunai, NO he wasnt trying to stay out of range of the scythe, he was aiming to get rid of the sythe to get into melee range!!! (also no, he wasnt trying to fist hit you)
If u love seeing Kakashi fight, I can't wait to see ur reaction to a specific fight in the future, there was not a single fan that didn't have goosebumps ❤ The Sakura hate was mostly just peer pressure from people to fit in to the community, every group needs a common enemy to agree upon and Sakura was the winner at this point, but she is going to surprise u again one day 🙂
they lost because they got separated. also Hidan deserved that shit, sure he's cool but he's an asshole. Kakuzu though i agree with you, they did my boy dirty. he's one of the strongest members, if he was fighting another group of ninja he would only need either only the wind style or the fire style jutsu and it would automatically decimate everyone. Team Shikamaru and Kakashi had a lot of plot armor being able to survive any of his jutsu
always felt Ino's abilities were wasted on her. one of the coolest techniques dealing with the mind. Sakura would have made better use of her abilities. combined with all the abilities learned from Tsunade. Kishi should've given Sakura those techniques, either learning from her clan or discovering and creating these abilities on her own with advance chakra control
Thats funny i figured you should go the other way and give Ino Sakuras strenght and healing, since Sakura already kinda got the role of the weak in her team. And with Inos power up, we could se a bit more to Sikamarus team.
@@dennismikkelsen1977 i understand your point. But since kishi made Sakura his heroine. This could've negated the whole her being the weak one from the jump and gave her more use. And with Sakura's chakra control and intelligence.. it just seems she would've been more creative with those abilities alongside Tsunade's. And her combos with naruto and sasuke could've been kinda cool. As well sensing. Using the mind abilities and senseing to enhance healing techniques. This is how Sakura would've truly been seen to surpass Tsunade.
@wadeo_0 yea i agre i just like Inos design and personality more + i really like Shikamaru, so would like to see them more. Plus i like the idea of their team combo attack, maybe just find a way make Ino and choji more usefull in a fight. And dont get me wrong i would mind Sakura being chanced, so she fit better, just not sure thats the way ;) for me it was more her motivation and simping for Sauske that annoyed me. I don't mind one of the main characters being weaker, as long as it is done right. And I am not a good storyteller, so not sure how best to change her, I just did not like her that much.
@@thewavyprince5691 "A character I don't like didn't die how I expected them to so it's plot armor" lol bro plot armor only exists if the writer screws up and something nonsensical has to happen for a character to survive, deciding to write a suspenseful last secound getaway or getting protected by someone is most definitely not that...
I swear Hidan’s voice actor made the character 10 times better. Love it.
nah fr everytime i rewatch from reaction channels i love hidan more and more hes hilarious
Wholeheartedly agree! His voice acting is soo full of character that i wonder if it would have the same impact as it did if i experienced his character through the manga instead.
Yes yes

Thank you for being here!! 🥹🤍 YES I really loved these episodes!
Same animator as the Sasuke vs Naruto fight, the Sasuke vs Orochimaru fight, the Kage fight, and the Gaara vs Lee fight.
@@vincegalila7211had no idea! But hey that makes sense!
@@vincegalila7211 he barely animates anymore, just does random under the radar things. kishimoto asked him specifically and some other sakugos to animate naruto (the fights)
Every Akatsuki fights were one of my favorites, honestly the organization as a whole made it so much great
Kakashi+Shikamaru duo is so underrated 🔥
This dou is a menace..kakashi is a combat tactician + shikamaru a smartass guy
Shikamaru would have also increase Tenten's abilities a lot when we see all of his fights including this one
We forget that Shikamaru is literally just a kid. The level of maturity, wisdom and teamwork he displays with Kakashi is awe inspiring. Shikamaru could very well be a very deserving Hokage in the future! One of my favorite characters!
This fight is soo good! And to see Kakashi in this state is shocking. It shows how strong this immortal duo really is!

It makes me so happy that someone appreciates this amazing Anime like i did. By the way lovee love loveee the little hype dances you do when the OSTs come. NEVER CHANGE FLEXIE WE LOVE YOU.❤
Kakashi is one of the strongest characters we’ve seen up to this point and he got completely outclassed by Kakazu. Insane
Hearing Naruto’s voice makes everything feel like we’re so back! 😭❤️
Best reactions ever. You are so invested. Fun to watch.
Thank you!!! 🙏🏻🔥
Animated in 2008. 16 year old animation and it's better than most of what we get in 2024, crazy.
I love how whenever a character does/inflict a dive bomb (usually headfirst), the sound effect is like an actual missile flying towards the earth lol.

i thought he's more than 100 years, idk why x)
Hidan: "Where are we going?"
Flexie: "To your grave!"
Me: 🧐
Look - I got lucky on that one 🤣☠️
@@FlexiejayAnime Don't sell yourself short. It was a very good guess - more than you knew at that time. I'm assuming you are a few episodes ahead already, so you know what I'm talking about 😄
Haha her reaction when kakuzu kicked choji. Priceless man.
I like how Kakuzu respects Shikamaru, saying he will be a valuable bounty someday.
The relief on Kakashi’s face when he sees Naruto arrive 😢☺️
Damn, I couldn’t sleep all night and suddenly I’m blessed with this
Kakashi is a beast. He solo'ed Hidan and the elementals for the longest time.
Kakashi is definitely very cool.

Sister you're not even ready for the pain arc🔥🔥🔥
This two episodes are one of the best! Especially, with episode 85, and once the music kicks in 5:04. Its so good!
Kakuzu is be like: "We are Akatsuki. We will add your heart and chakra distinctiveness to our own. Your jutsu will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. 😉

This episode is really the definition of ninja trickery and tomfoolery😂 my 10 year old brain couldn’t process it when I first watched it😂

i'm from Brazil, and i see all your videos. It's a very good reactions!
I'm so Glad I'm 1st comment
Glad Flexie is watching one of my favorite animes😁
One thing I know he is like one of the smartest people on that show, to playing like that 34 steps ahead of the enemy that is really op, Annabelle is not always the strongest person that win is the smartest😊
I would like to watch Kakuzu and Hashirama fight. I think it would be a nice flashback.
This is one of the best fights in Naruto, great tactics, great use of jutsu and elements, great characters and at the same time it is fairly "down to earth" compared to fights later.
I am waiting for these EPIC episodes
thanks for video flexie
💞🥰
I was waiting for this hahaha and today we have a Naruto Shippuden stream 😁
Wait what? Do we?
YES! 🔥
@@FlexiejayAnime hahaha I dont know why but My comment was posted twice 😁
@@FlexiejayAnime Oh lfg!! I can’t wait for this
7:55 this is a double insult from Kakuzu, cause Hidan is currently talking to a water clone :P
7:35 created in the smoke.
10:28 destroyed.
Shikamaru's fights are always so good , he's always 5 stept ahead.
“Fuuton”
Flexie - “YESSSSS”
🥹 us too queen
Can we take a moment to talk about Kakashi straight up picking Choji up and jumping out of the way with him over his shoulder?
One of the best fights in the series. Maybe top 20 in anime IMO
This arc is such a turning point... This is peak Naruto right here!
Shikamaru seems to have developed the most in this arc.
fell asleep last night watching the 83-84 reaction , I told myself if there's a god out there she will upload the next parts soon !! MY FAITH NEVER WAIVEREDDDDD !!!!!
jashin heard your prayer
Next episode is going to be FIRE!!!
I LOVE that you watch this so much! Thank you !
Kakuzo was like ohh damm we fk up now
GREAT EPISODE!🔥🔥😘
finally the long awaited upload😊
Shikamaru is always ahead 😂
Shikamaru is genius☺👍
Oh dear, still not the end of the arc! I've seen it many times, but still wanna see more)
Hand to hand combat in Naruto is the best
It's not easy to take down Kakashi in a 1-on-1 fight.
The first reason is because he has the Sharingan and secondly he is the smartest ninja since genin and has a Sensei who is smarter than him. 4th Hokage Minato Namikaze.
Let's be honest, if Kakashi hadn't joined team Shikamaru and the others would have died a long time ago.
even if kakashi was there, they cant even survive that. naruto and the others just joined
I love watching your reactions ❤
Basically kakuzu was sent to assassinate the first hokage but as you can imagine failed horribly. So when his village elders imprisoned him for failing he broke out, stole their hearts and forbidden jutzu.
And boom the heart bandit was born
You upload at 5:00am pacific time on my side of the rock 🥶
i forgot all the little details in this fight, so kakashi's fake outs are stressing me out. i can't live like this 😭 my heart's gonna fail before any villain can even use it lmao.
shikamaru gave us an oscar-worthy performance, meryl streep is shaking rn. wish he would've faked injured longer though so kakuzu got stabbed more. but hey it was a great plan.
and now our mc is gonna mc-ing. can't wait for next episode!
why do some fights but only some look so good?
they fly a guy in to animate it, DA GOAT
next one NOW
11:01 Such a BOSS move! ALWAYS three steps ahead, no he wasnt tring to get you with the shadow, no he wasnt trying to get you with the kunai, NO he wasnt trying to stay out of range of the scythe, he was aiming to get rid of the sythe to get into melee range!!! (also no, he wasnt trying to fist hit you)
Still and will always be the best in my life.
Five hearts. Only one brain.
Do the math.
9:17 whats ino gonna do?
Yes.😳
also how did shikamaru gain so much chakra in a weeks time. his chakra pool grew so much between the first encounter to the 2nd encounter?
If u love seeing Kakashi fight, I can't wait to see ur reaction to a specific fight in the future, there was not a single fan that didn't have goosebumps ❤
The Sakura hate was mostly just peer pressure from people to fit in to the community, every group needs a common enemy to agree upon and Sakura was the winner at this point, but she is going to surprise u again one day 🙂
No bro she peaked already
Nah even the animation studio didn't like Sakura that's why she gets worse as the show goes on.
Shikamaru shippuuden is just too good
you never know whos dies because hey kill asuna, that's the best, i dont even want to mention what happens next
I’ve already experienced two other deaths ☠️……………
@@FlexiejayAnime prepared yourself because they won't stop, just so you know naruto only anime that make my cry
And the academy for best actor award goes to ….
now i can't wait for the next episode reaction :D
aw man u watching arcane?! how are you liking it? what episode are you on?
Can't wait for next episode!
PEAK SHIKAMARU SHIPPUDEN
Kakashi's so hot in these episodes I can't lie
I don’t know if you ever watched Zoolander but here’s a reference:
It’s that damn kakashi! he’s so hot right now
Honestly Choji deserved to die for that mistake. It was so incredibly braindead I don't know why they included it.
Finally!!at last!!come on~~~!!きたきたきたきたー!!風遁螺旋手裏剣!!
To your grave ❤ amazing as always ❤
No way I’ve caught up to all the episodes😢
Kakuzu probably chucked a kunai at Hashirama and then ran away at full speed.
Nowadays he goes like "I fought the first hokage!"
KAKUZU: I STILL HAVE THREE HEARTS IN ME. YOU CAN'T DEFEAT ME.😈
NARUTO: FOTON!!! RASENSHURIKEN!!!✴️🔥
I would be more angry about this, but she is always ahead of what she posts on RUclips
The more you watch this episode the more you realize kakazu and hidan only lose to plot armor
they lost because they got separated. also Hidan deserved that shit, sure he's cool but he's an asshole. Kakuzu though i agree with you, they did my boy dirty. he's one of the strongest members, if he was fighting another group of ninja he would only need either only the wind style or the fire style jutsu and it would automatically decimate everyone. Team Shikamaru and Kakashi had a lot of plot armor being able to survive any of his jutsu
So short, need more reactions and episodes 😅
You're right Sakura is much better and a good support, especially later in the show
So short, need more reactions and episodes
11:18 That was such a pathetic line in the SUB . In the DUB , he says " i dont hide in the shadows , i become them "
Man , Naruto's DUB> SUB.
kakashi shadow clone shouldve been destroyed from kakazus pets attack. shadow clones are destroy when they are hit with a solid attack
Such a great arc underrated ngl
Not underrated, everyone likes it, even people who do not really like shippuden.
alright we're nearing the good stuff. i mean this arc is great but you're about to know pain
NICE!!!
6:24 do you have like southeast asian blood or something?
The none stabilized camera shaking makes me dizzy! xD

DATTEBAYOO!!
In this fight kakashi got saved two times
well, he was fighting kakuzu + his pets alone...so yeah, kakuzu is pretty strong
But Kakashi's fighting someone who fought against Hashirama and survived.
Kakashi and Sasuke got more plot Armour than Naruto ichigo and luffy combined it's crazy

I really liked this fight until Naruto shows
yeah they lowkey should've saved the rasenshuriken for later *wink wink*
i don't understand
I can't mourn you twice?
.. what happened to Choji in OG Naruto ☠️🥲
Yup, Sakura is SUPER useful is this fight, she definitely carried..
Who said she was? ☠️ I was comparing her and Ino 🔥🫶🏻 lol 😉
btw just to expand on kakazu fighting lord 1st is like a child fighting a Special forces solider
