Naruto Episode 107: I Want To Fight You! Finally Clashed, Sasuke vs Naruto

by on Comments




At Konoha hospital, Sasuke just can't imagine by how much Naruto has surpassed him and how strong he now is. Even his own brother was more concerned with Naruto then him.

Meanwhile, Tsunade officially promotes Shikamaru to Chuunin and Asuma takes his team out to celebrate. After the meal, Ino explains to Chouji that she is on a diet because boys don't like chubby girls. Shikamaru overhears and says Ino would be more popular if she only had a little meat on her. He then tries to cheer up Chouji who is still depressed that Asuma told him to train more. When Chouji is feeling better, Shikamaru excuses himself. His dad wants to teach him a new technique.

As Sasuke still contemplates his perceived weakness, Orochimaru sends the Sound Four to Konoha to collect him.

Lee informs Tsunade that he has accepted the risks and wants the surgery. She asks him why he insists on remaining a shinobi. He explains that it has always been his dream to prove that even a guy like him can become a great ninja.

Sakura peels an apple beside Sasuke's bed. When she offers him a piece, he slaps the plate away from her and glares at Naruto. Fight me right now!

Naruto and Sasuke head up to the roof. Naruto feels a rush of excitement to finally face his rival. They exchange taunts until Sasuke refuses to put on his forehead protector, a symbol of their fighting as equals. He starts the brawl without it. Naruto dodges Sasuke's kick style of fighting that has a Capoeira feel to it. The animators have taken this up a few notches and this all too brief battle is one of the best in the series. Repeatedly, the two exchange blows on equal footing until Naruto Kage Bunshins to surround Sasuke. He takes out a few and then uses his tiger seal to do Blazing Fireball to destroy the Naruto clones and most of the roof. Naruto then prepares Rasengan while Sasuke prepares Chidori and the two boys run at each other at top speed. Horrified, Sakura rushes in between.

Sakura focuses her chakra into her hands and feet to slow down her fall. They hit the ground safely, but Sasuke still lies unconscious.

Naruto does Kage Bunshin and all his clones attack while the final ones prepare Rasengan. Again, Aoi cuts through the chakra spiral and knocks Naruto back. Soon, he notices a crack in the sword and sees an opportunity. If he can hit the sword at precisely the point where Sasuke cracked it with his Chidori, it should snap.

Again, Naruto prepares Rasengan. He rushes Aoi and pushes his chakra spiral through the crack, breaking the sword and throwing Aoi off the cliff into the water below. Naruto then rushes to the cliff's edge to check on his teammates before turning his attention back to the race. He and Idate climb on one of the suspension bridge ropes and Naruto cuts it with Idate's precious knife. They swing over to the other side and head towards the finish line.

The crowd cheers as Fukusuku runs towards the finish line, but Idate isn't far behind. He runs as hard as he can and wins the race.

Boss Jirochu praises him and then sends him out into the crowd to receive his winner's cheer. Gokaroh protects that Idate had the ninja carry him so he should be disqualified. The Lord of Tea Country explains that there is no such rule and disbands the Wagaraski family for their evil deeds.

Later, Ibiki sales to Tea Country to collect Sasuke, who is still injured. Idate bows and Ibiki smiles to himself as he walks away. Meanwhile, Aoi's words ring though Sasuke's head. He is the weakest of the Uchiha clan. He is weak…

Fukusuki continues to celebrate with women and food when Aoi warns him that he might be celebrating prematurely. At the bottom of Modoroki Shrine, Naruto begins his ascent up the long light of stairs to the top of the shrine.

Along the way, Naruto asks about Idate's 10th problem. It was explained as a competition among the 3-man genin teams. Among teammates, one person will fail and remain a genin forever. But they also had the choice to quit now and take the exam in six months. If one person quits, the entire team will fail. Most of the people in the room remained. When Ibiki scanned the room, he decided that everyone who remained fails. Idate asked his brother why he failed everyone, but Ibiki simply told him that a ninja must understand all his circumstances. He must figure out the answer on his own.

When the boys finally reach the top, Idate grabs the orb and heads out on his own two feet.

Aoi warns Fukusuki to cross the bridge so he can destroy it. When Idate comes up to it, Aoi is waiting with his sword of Raijin. Naruto smacks Aoi with a mud ball and uses Kage Bunshin to form Rasengan. He then tries to take on the invincible lightning sword. The Second's grand katana wins the battle and Naruto is thrown back. Aoi then directs his attention to Idate.

That night long ago, Ibiki reprimanded Idate for leaving with the stolen goods and demanded he turn himself in. Aoi used his rain army to capture and torture Ibiki until he agreed to translate a scroll. Ibiki refused while his little brother watched and even renounced being a ninja. Ibiki plotted his and Idate's escape. As he ran, the building exploded behind him. He never went back to Konoha.

Aoi explains that Ibiki never betrayed his brother or his village. As he is about to strike, Sasuke and Sakura join the battle. Sasuke tries Chidori but he is thrown back. Aoi laughs at the legendary Uchiha's weakness and Sasuke demands he take it back. Angrily, he forms another Chidori and manages to crack the lightning sword before being caught up in the Raijin's energy blade. When Aoi tosses Sasuke aside, Sakura runs to his rescue and both topple over the cliff

Aoi taunts Idate. Only a horrible person would betray his own brother and then abandon his village.

The Konoha genin face their rain nin foes underneath the water when Naruto is pulled under and trapped. He Kage Bunshins and commands several of his clones to sink lower and start Rasengan below. Soon, Naruto has a mighty whirlpool brewing within the water and the clones are destroyed. He then grabs Sakura and swims to the water's surface.

Sasuke swims to shore while Naruto runs across the water's surface. He trips over a rock and he and Sakura are thrown to Nagi Island's beach area. Sakura pretends to be unconscious in hopes that Sasuke might give her mouth to mouth, but Naruto steps up for that job. When she peaks out and sees Naruto's lips inching closer to her, she abruptly awakens and punches him hard.

Aoi has Idate trapped in his rain prison. By now Fusuku has reached the shrine, while Aoi's rain drains all Idate's energy. When Idate reaches for his coveted knife, Aoi stomps on his hand and then repeatedly beats him.
Naruto and co. arrive shortly after to take on the Rain Leader. He pounds them with his downpour and explains that the toxic rain venom will soon prove fatal. From the distance, they hear cheering and realize Fukusuke reached the shrine. Luckily, Fukusuke is quite cocky and takes a long break there while Sakura hands each of her team one of the pills Tsunade gave her. They are rejuvenated.

Idate remembers showing his brother the Konoha forehead protector he finally received on the day he became a genin. He wanted to become a ninja like his brother, but his sensei was Aoi.

Several years ago Idate failed the Chuunin exam and was deeply distressed. When Aoi told him he could become Chuunin without passing the exam, he jumped at the opportunity. He stole the seal scroll and the Second's Raijin sword for his sensei was left with little choice but to leave Konoha for the village of Rain with Aoi.

After that, he felt he couldn't do anything right. But Boss Jirochu believed him when no one else did. Naruto reminisces back to when he failed the genin exam and understands that Idate is like him. He then exclaims that one person believes in him - isn't that enough? The race isn't over yet and Naruto will even carry him if he can't run. If he fails here, he will be a loser for the rest of his life.

Naruto picks up Idate and the two head to the shrine.

Aoi sends his rain nin - who happen to be the same genin rain nin our Konoha team found in the Chuunin - after Idate and the nins. Meanwhile, Gokaroh, leader of the Wagarashi clan, chides Boss Jirochu for making this race a farce. Jirochu assures him to wait until the finish to pass judgment. Gokaroh warns that he will ask for the Wasabi clan to be disbanded if they lose.

Idate met Jirochu when he attempted to rob him as a small, hungry boy. Jirochu took pity on him and gave him an apple to eat and a knife to peel it. Idate was so happy he asked to be the Jirochu's subordinate.

The Konoha genin wonder what Idate has planned. Naruto catches up just as Idate realizes he's caught in an illusory technique. He sees an exit and runs out - and off a cliff. Naruto catches Idate while Sasuke pulls them up. It seems it was a double illusory technique.

Idate then explains his strategy. During this season a strong wind blows so it's faster to go north. The group makes its way to Nagi Island where Idate will sail to follow the currents. As they sail, the Konoha genin discuss the Chuunin where they have finally referenced the Morino name. Their instructor for the written exam was Morino Ibiki. Idate can't believe his brother is still alive - and is apparently known for giving weird questions on the 10th problem.

Soon an arrow hits the boat and the rain nins pull closer to board. They clone themselves, and Naruto Kage Bunshins to fight the water clones. Soon, Sakura realizes it's raining oil and stops Sasuke from using a fire technique, but the rain nins are able to shoot their own fire arrow and soon the entire ship goes up in flames. Idate remembers his brother sitting among flames telling him to flee.

Sakura tries to talk some sense into Idate. They can swim to Nagi Island from here. He fears the genin will try to use him as a decoy and declines. Sakura, in her one act of grand mightiness through this entire anime, rips a large wooden post from its foundation and swings it furiously to take out the remaining water clones. She then jumps in front of Idate to take a kunai to the shoulder that was intended for him. As the boat sinks, Idate finally is convinced to swim on to Nagi Island where Aoi is waiting.

102: Crucial Moment - New Mission!

Several members of the Wasabi Clan from Tea Country travel to Konoha. On the way, the meet Aoi, a whirlwind ninja, who causes needles to rain down from his magical cloud. He warns them to forfeit the race.

Tsunade gives this B-rank mission to our three genin sans Kakashi who is out on another mission. She believes it might become and A-rank but doesn't know much about it. In Tea Country, there's something called the Burning Fire Race held every 4 years. Messengers were attacked by disqualified opponents on their way to Konoha, so the genin are to talk to Boss Jirocho about the specifics. They should arrive by tonight.

On the way, Naruto decides he's hungry and the three head into a local restaurant where another patron taunts them. He ridicules the quality of Konoha's ninja and then hits on Sakura before heading out of the restaurant. The waitress soon hands the genin two bills - it seems that Morino Idate stiffed his bill.

Furious, the genin catch up with Idate where they learn his sob story. They begin to sympathize until he runs away again. They give up following him and head back to Boss Jirocho's place where they hear more details about their mission.

Every four years, they hold the Todori Burning Fire Race in honor of a man named General Todori, who performed a ritual to control the rain. After his death the tradition continued, though the ritual soon became a marathon race. This friendly event has become violent only recently. There are two clans - the Wasabi clan and the Wagarashi clan - who are now rivals. The Wagarashi Clan is known to pick fights in the streets and it is believed they cheated in the race four years ago. Now, the Wasabi clan believes they will cheat again.

He calls Morino Idate in. Their mission is to escort him during the race to make sure nothing happens to the boy. They accept the mission, though Naruto is not pleased to be protecting the man who ripped him off. Idate isn't happy to have shinobi escorts either. But he will do what he must to run for the sake of the village.

The race starts at Tegarashi port and goes through Modoroki Shrine. The two contestants will start by boat. The sun rises and the race begins. Idate immediately heads north, ignoring his boat, while the Wagarashi runner, Hiyokuya Fukusuke, hops in his boat and takes off.

101: I Wanna See, I Wanna Know, I Wanna Find Out! Kakashi's True Face!

by on Comments





A filler episode: Naruto convinces Sasuke and Sakura to help him discover what's behind Kakaships mask. Just what blemish does he hide? When the group invites him out for ramen - their treat - he is immediately suspicious, but happily enjoys the free meal. Just as they're about the see Kakashi's true face, Ino, Shikamaru, and Chouji crash the party, blocking their view. When the chaos settles down, both ramen servers are staring at Kakashi with big hearts in their eyes.

This of course fuels the genin's curiosity, so they decide to follow him. He immediately notices they are tailing him and asks what's up. They then decide to follow him individually. Naruto is up first, but Kakashi quickly loses him. Sakura tries but is duped by a Kakashi scarecrow. Finally Sasuke tries and fails as well.

Today's mission is to help out on a farm. As they prepare, the evil Moya brothers are plotting their revenge on Kakashi. Three years ago, one of the brothers proposed to a girl in a very cheesy setting. Kakashi interfered. Now they will seek their revenge.

Their first method of revenge is to prepare a magnificent feast sprinkled with a potion to cause unstoppable hiccups. Kakashi refuses to eat while Naruto throws a tea pot at his sensei. Kakashi blocks with the entire table and all the food is ruined.

Sasuke decides that if they invite Kakashi to a bath, he'll definitely take off his mask, while the Moya brothers decide to prick Kakashi with a needle that will make him laugh uncontrollably until he dies. To the boy's dismay, Kakashi walks out with his mask on. The Moya brothers use the opportunity to throw their needle, but it misses and hits a frog. When Naruto comes out of the path, he sees the three Moya uniforms and steals them.

Finally, the kids make their last stance. They put on the shinobi outfits and try to sneak up behind Kakashi. He immediately recognizes them, but the Moya brothers emerge from hiding and confront Kakashi at that moment. Sakura reveals that this was part of their plan all along - they've lured the Moya brothers into their trap. Kakashi thinks it's a bit strange but takes the three out.

Finally, Naruto asks what's under Kakashi's mask. He dramatically removes it to reveal... another mask!

Iruka watches Konohamaru walk out of class in high spirits and then spots Lee walking down the hallway. He puts his crutches down, feeling powerless that Konoha is in trouble and he can't do anything to help. Meanwhile, Tsunade reads book after book for a way to regenerate cells.

Lee remembers the first time he met Gai as a kid. Gai believed in him. Even when Neji laughed at him, he never gave up his dream to become a great ninja using only taijutsu. Gai taught him that with a strong will and hard work, he could make it. Gai often practiced what he preached. He would duel his arch rival Kakashi time and time again. Lee remembers one time Kakashi chose rock, paper, scissors. Gai declared that if he did not win, he'd walk 500 laps around Konoha upside down.

Gai confronts Lee about missing rehab for the last two days. Lee confides that he's always believed that hard work would lead to success, but now things don't look so well. Even if he believes in himself, he's still playing the odds with this surgery. What should he do?

Gai realizes Lee is in need of a pep talk and explains that yes, this is challenging, but if he gives up his dreams, he gives up his purpose. Living without purpose can be more painful than death. Therefore, Gai advises him to accept the surgery.

Tsunade continues to study while Lee reminisces. When Gai lost that rock, paper, scissors match, he completed 500 laps, even when the villagers laughed at him. He vowed to keep his promise until he died. Gai then explains that he always puts himself into a situation of great pressure. By increasing the stakes, he becomes more focused. And if he fails, he simply trains harder. Back then, Gai promised to train Lee until Lee became as strong as himself.

Gai promises that the surgery will succeed. But if it fails, they will die together. Since he met Lee, his purpose was to make Lee a great ninja. Without that purpose, there'd be no point in living.

Shi*une looks over Tsunade's notes. It appears that Tsunade was able to figure out how to increase the results to 58%!

That day, Tsunade is inaugurated as Konoha's Fifth Hokage.

Lee has always dreamed of becoming a great ninja. Now Tsunade has told him it would be best for him to quit.

Meanwhile, Naruto hears that Konohamaru has locked himself in the Hokage's office and won't come out. Tsunade gives him to the end of the day to get Konohamaru out.

Sakura takes flowers to Lee at the hospital, but he isn't there for his rehab session yet. He's off reflecting on whether to undergo surgery.

Naruto tries to entice Konohamaru out of the room with free ramen, but the Third's grandson won't speak. When Naruto threatens to break down the door, Konohamaru dares him to try. Naruto charges against the door and is greeted by a number of falling bans.

Sakura sees Lee by the river and hands him her bouquet of flowers. When he tries to walk with her, he trips and she catches him. She tells him that Tsunade has healed Sasuke. He should go see her too.

Tsunade walks though town in search of a drink or a place to gamble. Shi*une offers to get her some sake if she agrees to do work.

Naruto tries to reason with Konohamaru. Why is he doing this? Everyone is worried. He tries sexy no jutsu and finally Kage bunshins. The clones hit the door and several pepper bombs go off.

Tsunade browses though a book of newly appointed ninjas. When she sees Lee's picture, she walks outside. She sees him by the bridge sadly picking petals off the flowers Sakura brought him.

Konohamaru refuses to allow anyone else use grandpa's room. Tsunade casually walks into her office avoiding all the boobie traps and making her way to her bookshelf. She grabs a book and walks away in silence.   

This seems to pull Konohamaru out of his mood and together, he and Naruto walk through the village. He explains that soon, everyone will forget about his grandpa. They'll pack his stuff up in boxes and move on with their lives. Naruto vows to make everyone promise not to forget the Third.

Shi*une and Ton-ton scout the town for Tsunade. She's having saki and researching a way to increase the success rate of Lee's surgery. She explains to Shi*une that if she can figure out how to regenerate cells as Kabuto could, the surgery will be more likely to succeed.

Naruto and Konohamaru overhear Tsunade's conversation and Konohamaru brightens up. She talks like the Third did. As if everyone in the village is like family. He has newfound respect for the Fifth and is confident she will remember the core values of his grandfather.

Back in Konoha, everyone is doing their part to chip in. Kiba trains with Akamaru while Shino gathers bugs. Iruka ends class early, leaving Konohamaru free to roam about. He soon sees two men carrying boxes of his grandpa's things out of the Hokage's office. When he asks what they're doing, they announce that the Fifth has been chosen.

Konohamaru runs up the stairs and collides with Tsunade. Shi*une soon ushers her away. Konohamaru can't believe she's the Fifth and runs away crying.

Meanwhile, Neji byakugans to check his 360 vision. He sees 7 birds. Tenten interrupts to let him know that Tsunade has returned. He looks up at the sky - there were 8 birds.

The elders call Genma and Aoba to announce the Fifth's inauguration to the village and local lords while Naruto demands that Tsunade come to the hospital to heal Kakashi and Sasuke. On their way, Shikamaru meets the new Hokage while his dad praises her as the strongest and most beautiful woman. The female Sannin. He continues to explain that men are nothing without women and Shikamaru will understand when he grows up. Unimpressed, Shikamaru just thinks his dad is whipped.

Sakura has visited Sasuke every day. When she sees Tsunade, she bows and asks her to heal her beloved. Tsunade touches Sasuke's forehead and soon Sasuke awakens. Naruto watches as Sakura hugs her now conscious teammate, sobbing happily. He then leads Tsunade over to Kakashi and finally to Lee.

When Tsunade reaches Lee, she reminds Naruto that he has an appointment with Iruka. Iruka is quick to explain that Konoha is going through a difficult period without the Third. They have many missions to complete but not enough ninja. However, if they decline jobs, other countries would discover Konoha's weakened state.

Meanwhile, Tsunade tells Lee flat out that he must stop being a shinobi. He has many fragments of bone lodged inside his nervous system and other critical areas. His body can't handle shinobi missions. Gai refuses to believe what she says. She explains that she can perform surgery, but there is only a 50% chance of success. If it fails, Lee will die. She recommends he stop being a shinobi. Lee hobbles out of the room and down the hall as Gai reprimands Tsunade for telling him such things. She replies that it is better he knows the truth.
