Watching Shikamaru figure out those traps and dismantle the whole pirate attack felt so satisfying because his brain works so differently compared to everyone else on that boat

I am actually impressed that Tenten pulled a whole ship out of a scroll and it makes me wish the show gave her more screen time during the canon arcs

Those pirates and insane whirlpools were no joke, and for a second there, I honestly thought they were done for! But then Shikamaru’s quick thinking and their teamwork kicked in, and it just reminded me how essential he is to the whole squad and how much they’ve all grown together since their academy days.
