Great episode.:) They finally saw him as Naruto, and not as Demon kid. This Sakura got me mad. She was doing nothing whole battle just standing and screaming at Hyuga guy `Whats happening?` `What are they doing now?` `What just happened?` And Hinata almost died trying to protect Naruto.. And then when everything is over Sakura is coming to punch and hug Naruto.. God this is so unfair.


My though exactly....this is my only problem with the arc :/ that hinata and naruto didnt even talk at the end

It really is incredible to see how far Naruto's come. As far as I'm concerned, this was the moment when he became Hokage worthy.

^^i agree.
i felt like sakura punching naruto right there was so extra....he just saved the village and you do that to him? also i wish he acknowledged hinata more considering she was ready to die for him plus she confessed his love. but noooo, sakura had to take the spotlight. hinata x naruto needs to happen. anyway im ready for a shitload of filler so lets go

I'm so glad they were able to talk it out, but I'm sad Nagato died... :( Just as he changed his views... He could've been a great comrade.

If Nagato can revive dead people how difficult would it have been for him to get people to join his cause? Not very I'd imagine; which makes his plan look even sillier.

A nice wrap up, but I'm still pissed at Nagato's Jesus no jutsu. He puts Chiyo-baa's reanimation jutsu to shame!

I feel weird.I don't want this to end.This whole arc since Itachi vs Sasuke was just the best.I don't want it to end :(.It would have been awesome for Naruto to get the Rinnegan(I still believe it),but eh,you can't have them all.The second parth was kind of bad,with all the memories imo.Ahhhh,why did Nagato die :(.

"But you know, father… Whatever the outcome, I know you did your best. I can see that now and I understand you. You broke the code to save everyone. And im proud of you for it”
I cried and smiled at same time. What a beautiful small conversion between Kakashi-Sensei and his dad.

Best moment when Naruto leans on Kakashi shoulder, it reminds me of something similar happened between Kakashi and Minato, this was mentioned in "Kakashi Retsuden Novel", after the funeral of Kakashi's father:
"One thing that is clear is that his father died because he was rebellious. If he had completed the mission and killed the enemy, he would’ve surely been still alive. The number of people at the funeral the next day has decreased. It seemed that everyone was satisfied with the rumours about his father. After the short ceremony finished, Kakashi walked home alone. Whether or not he was tired from reading, he was uncomfortable because his vision was shaking. Neither his head nor his body moved well. The darkness in front of him was getting darker, and the rain whose noise is supposed to be loud was going further away. Still, he couldn’t stop thinking about it, and he didn’t care about these things. His feet were wobbling.

Someone caught Kakashi’s body that was about to fall down. A bright blonde young man came to sight, and made things a little bit easier.

“I’m Namikaze Minato, the Yellow Flash of Konoha.”

“You can stay back as it is” as Minato said so, Kakashi immediately pulled his body together and could stand on his feet again."

i understand that kishimito didn't want konoha to have many lost so he used pretty stupid plot armour, but it could have been great if it wouldn't revive everyone to enable some character development, shizune can stay dead for me and sakura would be the new hokage's assistant, that could be great, too bad...

wonder what akatsuki would do now.

and yeah i find those last eps kinda dragging, maybe because i'm tired, at the very least an amazing arc has finished.

Now I see how people said the series could have stopped after the Pain Arc. Like Aside from Sasuke & The Akatsuki, there was the full circle of Naruto's 1st goal of gaining the the respect of the village and protecting them.

Those villagers saying that they knew Naruto can do it;really don't know how to think about this,when they were the one's who never trusted him.
But really glad to see this arc concluding like this,the ending couldn't have been any better

Damn. I'm not ashamed to admit I got teary in this episode.

The Kakashi and White Fang pep talk was nice.

Konan leaves the Akatsuki and leaves with the corpses of Yahiko and Nagato.

Naruto even built a small memorial for Ero Sennin. :')

I hate the two faced villagers. First they traumatize a poor kid since his childhood days then they change sides once he saved their asses.

Also the OST was amazing imo. It naturally gave an emotional vibe.

Looks like there will be a ton of fillers after this :/

Nagato, are u Jesus and Konoha people are Lazarus?

Sasuke's Itachi's jutsu
Sakura's summoning jutsu
Naruto's talking jutsu

Just imagine if they joined forced.

I mean, it went pretty fast to change Nagato's mind full of hatred, Naruto's speeches really are dangerous weapon. I'm just kinda surprised how nobody even tried to stop and talk to Konan, after all Akatsuki still is responsible for hundreds of deaths all over ninja world and she kinda helped, especially in Amegakure. I think understanding may do here but I don't get all this forgiveness at all, especially due to current situation. There's still terror, trauma and families with no mothers, uncles, sisters and sons... I'll blame it on target group of this show. On the other side I adore philosophical talks and moral dilemmas without way out, whole sequence is really absorbing. And I love to see how Naruto slowly from bullied kid turns into village's hero, it builds myself a little.

Summarizing, I think ep was good anyway but I definitely didn't fall out of my seat while watching it, at least some characters would stay dead even if only for fundation of these events' purposes.

I had to rewatch this whole Pain arc because it's just peak Shounen, the way they build up Pain's character, seen as this unbeatable ninja, while also showing that he's different from other Akatsuki members, and then with all of the Jiraya's plot and death, and the culmination of the assault on Hidden Leaf Village is just so well done. Every episode was intense, even though I perfectly know what was gonna happen. Also, Pain as a whole has to be one of the best villains in anime, because you reach this episode, and you just become sad that he's also dead now, and feel sorry for all of the pain that Nagato had to endure. Yahiko deserved better :( You just understand why he made the choices he did, and why he sees in Nauto a light of hope. The resemblance of Yahiko in Naruto is undoubtely there, so it's only natural that he was moved by his way of being. It makes you want to continue this journey with Naruto, in hopes to see if he can keep his promise of not changing the hero of the story. The story of the three kids from the Hidden Rain Village is one that makes you think long after the episode ends, and that is what shows how good of a story this is.
Still have to watch the rest of the anime, but I do think this must be the best arc of the anime, and I'm honestly surprised it's so early on in the anime, we're only at episode 175 of 500. I really wonder if they shouldn't have made it later, but anyways. This arc is one of the reasons that made me want to watch anime in the first place, so it'll always have a special place in my heart too.
The most touching part of the episode was when Naruto was at the grave he made for Jiraya, but we can also see 2 more stones, which I suppose are for Nagato and Yahiko, his "apprentice siblings", right after Konan takes the bodies of both of her closest friends. It's honestly chilling.

Once again! Sakura displays her annoying trademark of punching Naruto for no reason. I swear to God she's the most irritating anime character I've ever seen! What a B*tch!

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

gg wp pain arc is over, i enjoyed it so much but i wish if they brought back Jiraya sensei to life, anyways Nagato could've won but we all know the plot armor and capitalism wouldn't let him, the industry gotta milk the show. As for the flashbacks i still think that Neji should've won against Naruto and that it was unfair to make Naruto the winner when he's literally so bad
