Sasuke being such a jerk during the jutsu demo makes way more sense once you realize this is after his family died and it just adds to the miserable vibe of the academy back then

I hate that we are back to filler already but seeing little Naruto being lonely at the swing makes me so sad and Iruka not knowing how to help him is actually pretty relatable

Part of me always cringes a little at Naruto’s old prank, but seeing him up there on the Hokage faces now, it’s actually pretty touching. I just wonder if he ever looks back at these moments and feels how incredibly far he’s come, still chasing that exact same dream he had as a tiny kid.
