You guys! The dark side has won! In this episode, Sasuke fights those guys, and yeah, he loses. But holy shit they have their own curse mark? Say what? And then they dip, and we don’t see them until the end of the episode. And I like how different they all are, in fact I don’t know how they maintain a team, they all seem too opposite. But each are cool, and I think Tayuya is my favorite, but that might change later. Anyway, as for Naruto, he and Sakura are on a "date,” and he strikes out, ‘cause she’s obsessed with Sasuke. So obsessed she waits by the village gate because she called that shit! Then Sakura and Sasuke have a really long and dramatic ass conversation. Like… it escalated. What is it with female anime characters being obsessive over dudes? But, it works. It’s executed as about as good as it could, and you’re invested completely. But Sasuke’s emo side is so strong he’s put Sakura who is doing all this shit, under killing big brother. Sasuke’s kind of a dick. So he leaves after KNOCKING OUT Sakura (nothing like following up what you said like hitting a girl, right?) and then goes out with the Sound Four who are now best buddies with him. And yeah, shit is going to hit the fan! Sasuke is officially kind of a bad guy, and I think he’ll be like that for awhile. I still haven’t gotten to see the big climatic fight, so we’ll see. Anyway, really liked this episode, I thought it was emotional, if a bit too twelve year old romantic. But damn Sakura, just calm down! It’s not like you’re going to actually be the one going after him and risking your life, so just calm down!
