Hey that gives me an idea.
-
lol, guess who got left out of the opening entirely?
-
@metteminne:
Which opening is it? No way that I am watching the episode
You know, you could have done like me and launch the ep just to see the opening without watching the rest of the episode :p.
-
-
E tu Gaara!? Noooooooooo!!! That was for the war? Holy crap balls…I what the? I need to lie down...Who green lighted this? They need to be sacked.
It's actually so bad I want a gif of all of them dancing...
-
Ahahahaha! Oh man, I really needed that laugh! The fact that Sasuke isn't in it is just a plus!
-
What the hell was that?
-
Also, guys, there'll probably be filler, so chances are another opening'll happen somewhere into the war. Anyway, this opening got more emotions out of me than any other Naruto material in a while so that's something.
-
Ahahahaha! Oh man, I really needed that laugh! The fact that Sasuke isn't in it is just a plus!
No…Gaara and Neji subjected to this and Sasuke escaped this fate? This is not right >_<
-
Enjoy
Having only read like 3 chapters of this arc, even I am amazed.
Hell at least Kaze Wo Sagashite has a panoramatic shot of Marineford, Sengoku, the admirals and the giant squad.
This has…..dancing.
And one scene recycled from earlier in the opening towards the end. Classy.
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
..except that's not the war opening, it's Impel Down's. You're looking for
.And yet it's still more militant then this.
-
This is a perfect opening embracing everything that is Naruto Ninja War.
-
Someone put that video over Kaze wo Sagashite.
I can't get over that dancing. I at least get that much that this arc is supposed to be pretty serious and that video isn't very appropriate for the mood.
-
-
With no hyperbole. Being completely serious. I honestly think that that is the worst opening to an anime that I've ever seen. What. The. Hell. Also I noticed that Team 8 wasn't in there. I think the anime staff wanted to save them the unbearable shame.
-
@Sonic:
I like how the opening indicates Sakura and Sai will help fight Tobi.
The hilarity of that claim makes me all sweaty.
I love how it implies that Naruto, Sakura and Sai would ever work together in such a manner.
Well, inappropriate lightheartedness/gayness of the opening aside, it really is amazing how many things in these Naruto openings are so much more awesome than anything Kishi has written in years. It's like the animation team saying, "this is how it should have gone!"
-
There's not nearly enough giant okama armadillo penis in that opening.
Once upon a time naruto has awesome opening.
Once upon a time.
-
The best part were the zombies and the Elder Frog apparently being a villain now.
-
I'm a day late here, but I finally got to read Bleach.
So Hitsugaya just freezes Yukio, bored to death? Bah.
But I enjoyed the hell out of Ikkaku vs Punk Kid. Mainly just to see a fight with (seemingly) no gimmicks and straight-up punching the crap out of each other. But wait, his "luck" goes down with every hit? Even though Ikkaku got that nasty hit towards the end, it was worth it to see him take down that punk once and for all while sporting a shit-eating grin similar to his own captain.
tl;dr: I liked it.

I hope when he was done with it the animation director scrawled a note on the cels saying ''I love my life''.
-
One thing I have always loved about the Naruto openings is how it seems to ALWAYS amek it seem like all the rookie ninjas are important. They always have big cameos and shot in the openings and its like "WTF, they have had like 1 panel in the last 100 chapters"
-
Did Naruto, Sakura and Sai just pull off an Kamehameha wave? Wow…. Did Naruto just perform hand seals? This opening is how Kishi has handled this manga since the Pain Arc. What a joke. This is the worst opening since ever. Kishi has transformed my old favorite manga to an absolute train wreck. This opening just show me hoe serious he takes this manga. Disappointed.

oh hush. if you are refering to kishi not taking this manga seriously because of the opening well kishi is not involved with the anime. i believe kishi makes this manga too damn serious that the anime producers got to make it lighthearted or sucide in japan will increase 10-fold.

Thanks so much lol. God..just I ugh. Well at any rate I'll use this as further evidence that Naruto is full of fail for my co-workers that like the show still lol.
-
Are you serious? From underdeveloped characters, plot holes, and rediculous dumb down characters he is taking this manga serious? I know Kishi doesn't handle the anime. I was comparring this horrible openning to the downfall of Naruto
-
You guys are a joke, this opening clearly represents what Naruto is, this opening is perfect.
-
Speaking of the Shippuuden opening, I'm trying to get into the series. I'm starting at Asuma's death arc and the pacing is ridiculously slow. It's like 1 chapter per episode. Is the whole series this bad?
The thing that makes me mad about Naruto Opening/Endings is they show side characters CONSTANTLY. Like the side characters are actually important. Sai and Sakura RARELY do ANYTHING with Naruto. yet in this vid there some happy team that works together to accomplish great things
Oh if only the anime/manga were like the op/eds
-
Did Naruto, Sakura and Sai just do some sorta "Power of Friendship" hand sign beam technique??
L
O
L
That is priceless. -
no, this is the best opening. I think the lead animator just didn't give a single fuck about following the manga, or was even familiar with the source material. He was just shown a few pictures of the characters, who was a bad guy and who was a good guy, and then just ran with it. The bit where the akatsuki zombies all slide up and bonk into eachother had me in stitches.
if the manga was like this opening, Naruto would be at least four times as enjoyable.
-
This new opening showed what Naruto Shippuden truly is.
-
That opening made me laugh hard? Also, did anyone notice Hinata wasn't in the dancing scenes (and might not have been in the entire opening)
-
Naruto fans must be raging hard.

WAT IS TIS!?
THIS is not NARUTO!!!1
Wow, who thought of this?
-
Well, you get an opening for your anime that describes the series to your audience. So, I don't see anything wrong with it. In my opinion - it's perfect. I couldn't describe Naruto series as it is now better than that.
Now we all wait for this guy to make a Bleach opening someday. I'll be the first one to come buckets.
-
I'm seriously in love with this opening, just because of all the crap that's in. Like the scene where Naruto was running like a crazy man on one of the buildings.
-
You guys are a joke, this opening clearly represents what Naruto is, this opening is perfect.
But Naruto hasn't been fun in years.

I just learned that most of the new Naruto opening syncs up almost perfectly with Kaze wo Sageshite.

Except for Hinata, Shino and Kiba. No dancing for them.
Team 8 is the lucky one.

mainly was talking about the closeups we go of like Lee, Negi and Ten-ten
Seriously why the hell did they get like big shots of them in the opening. They aren't impoirtant at all

It kind of feels like for the last 18 months only Naruto and Killerbee have been important

Fun little quote I found, this guys 'explaination' for the absurdity…
The more I think about it, this may very well be the best OP in the series, and a lot of it falls in just the subtleties about it. Those who liked the "Diver" OP commented on how subtlety worked in that one's favor, and I believe the same to be the case with this one. Now, as over the top as this OP is, subtle may be an odd choice of word to describe it, but hear me out.
For one thing, Naruto is back to being his goofy self, as so many of his peers have commented on ever since his last confrontation with Sasuke (in fact, the lack of Sasuke also shows off how Naruto has finally gotten over his obsession with him). This OP is pretty much a celebration of Naruto's return to form with it's goofy antics.
Plus, we all know how much Naruto tends to rub off on people, so it makes sense for everyone around him to be joining in on his antics (notice that it's only the protagonists who are doing any dancing, with the slight exception of the Akatuski, who are tugged to the side like the group of puppets that they are). And the choreographed dancing also emphasizes the teamwork necessary in the upcoming war.
Even the actual fighting portions have little details in them that hint at some of the actual upcoming fights (manga readers should hopefully be able to pick out these hints).
The song isn't great, but it's also not bad by any means, and fits the accompanying animation. But overall, I've gotta say this is one of the most impressive OPs the anime has produced yet. It's up there with Sign (OP6) at the top of the heap (as well as OP2, which is just a personal favorite of mine).

Lol, I'm pretty confident that there was never any ridiculous dancing scenes in any of the One Piece openings.

http://www.mediafire.com/?82db8q6k2bdcdqnLOL WUT I really don't think they can make this equally entertaining to Rock Lee's Springtime of Youth. First off - see what they did there? They dumped Naruto and made Rock Lee the main guy. Sorry, but if Bleach isn't about Kenpachi, then we literally get the same shit all over again, because we already know how bland and boring Ichigo is.

Just finished reading this Bleach from Saikyou Magazine. God damnwas it horrible. See, they took the beginning of Bleach, the GOOD part, and made it horribly bad, boring and jokeless. Nothing was funny, Kubo did it better back then. It won't even entertain any kids, seriously. They introduced Ichigo, Rukia, Hitsugaya and Renji and they defeat hollows and go to school together. WTF? Why? How? What?

My God. I don't see how anyone wouldn't automatically begin weeping at such an awesome, thoroughly reasoned post. This good sir/madam is truly one of the most enlightened gentleman on the internet. I tip my hat to him/her. The forum he inhabits must be a delightful den of thoughtful discussion.

Well, it can still pick up.
And sure enough, even what I saw of it so far makes me far less likely to want Ichigo to die in a furnace, so that's an improvement.
-
I feel so sorry for Akatsuki in that opening, but their expressions are so appropriate I can't help but laugh.
"We're zombies with crushed souls. How sad is that?" their body language tells me. -
The opening is hilarious, but likely won't get used for too much of the war itself. The anime still needs to cover the Okammadillo/hug your inner evil away/600 million paper tags/malnourished chihuahua/Kisame dies AGAIN arc.
Huh. Come to think of it, Kisames mission was to latch onto the jinchuriki, so that Madara could find the hidden turtle fortress and capture them, right? Kisame gave his life to let them know of that place.
But the only thing that came of it was Yamato getting kidnapped.Does that Kisame sacrificed himself…to give Zetsu a makeover?
