EPISODE CONTEXT

This episode sits within the 'Past Arc: The Locus of Konoha' filler block, directly following 'Rookie Instructor Iruka' (Episode 176), which established Iruka's early struggles as a new teacher confronting his feelings about Naruto. 'Iruka's Ordeal' deepens that internal conflict and serves as the emotional bridge to 'Iruka's Decision' (Episode 178), where those tensions reach a resolution. As a mid-arc filler entry around episode 177 of 500, it has no bearing on the main canon storyline but enriches a beloved supporting character's backstory.
