EPISODE REVIEWS

When Kakashi frantically scrubbed at Rin's blood, I realized he wasn't just trying to clean himself, but desperately trying to scour that awful moment from his very being. His empty, distant stare afterward really solidified my thought that this isn't just a memory for him; it's a wound that never truly heals, and I could feel the immense weight of his grief.

Kakashi's ANBU past really got me feeling for him, seeing all the dark stuff he went through right after the war arc. It totally explains why he's so closed off and always hiding behind that mask; I can't imagine carrying all that weight.

I gotta say, those flashbacks that basically rehashed stuff we already knew were a bit of a drag, making the episode feel slow. It's like, how many times are we gonna see Danzo being his usual shady self before he finally gets what's coming to him? It fits him, sure, but I'm seriously over his constant behind-the-scenes scheming.
