Granny chiyo was a real og. Most of the characters in the show wouldn't be able to take out their child or grandchild even if they were evil. And then to solidify her legend status she just gives her life up for the kazekage
Reliving an anxiety of that trauma every time someone doesn't arrive on time. He said he was just a puppet, but his heart betrayed that resin and wood facade.
Another consecutive Naruto video?? SoloRaiju I don’t know if you read comments but you’re one of the most unique and authentic reactors that I would consider the best to watch. Glad that even years later I can still enjoy Naruto in this format
Also gotta give props to the dub director on this one for the idea. Cause it was generic 'cha' in the original and them making a reference to MK not only because the move itself is kinda similar, but also because Sasori means scorpion, is very clever.
I’m sure he won’t be consistently binging it because binging Naruto does get really hard, but I cannot wait for the pain arc. So emotional I know he’s gonna love it.
Rewatching Naruto along with you has been extremely enjoyable. One of the few channels videos that I watch immediately instead of sending it to the watch later realm.
In the original Japanese at the moment where Sakura yanks Sasori back she yells "Shannaro!" which in the English dub of Naruto was translated as "Cha!" and was something she often said during her inner monologues. That word doesnt actually translate, but it's a corruption of joudan ja nai yo which means roughly "It's not a joke!" or "Stop kidding around!". Curiously, the localization team chose to forgo the translation and it's earlier interpretation as "cha!" and opt instead for "get over here!" which is the famous catch phrase of the character Scorpion from the Mortal Kombat franchise. Now I don't know if it's a coincidence or intentional reference, but Sasori in Japanese translates to "Scorpion"
Honestly a show that has such stellar fight choreography really under utilized sakura…. Straight hands fights are always the best in shonen and sakura had the potential to pull some crazy shit up.. she deserved more crazy ass fights..
I have watched so many streams react to Naruto.....you are rhe most intelligent one so far.... And your editing is also perfect..... Please dont stop Shippuden.... The best parts are yet to come.....trust me, you have seen nothing yet
You are so right. Most Naruto reactors annoyed me, especially those with over-the-top reactions that didn't even seem authentic. Watching Solo Raiju is different, for some reason I can't wait to watch every episode he uploads. And when I think about the future Shippuuden arc I'm getting so excited! I can't wait to see him watching the series until the end.
It's a damn Shame they couldn't keep Sakura as badass in the long run as she was in the fight against Sasori. I honestly think it'd been really cool to have her be the Martial Arts master & Healer, of the Trio, while Naruto and Sasuke have all their jutsus and unique powers, imagine her asking to train with Lee, it'd be such a fun / cute moment.
Lady Chiyo is a legend. Whenever I think of Naruto the show Chiyo is usually the 3rd person that comes to mind, it was *so* emotional for me to see at that particular time in my life as a growing individual. Naruto --> Gaara --> Chiyo is usually the 3 that comes to mind in that order, typically, whenever I reminisce on this show.
Fun fact: the techniques Lee, Neji, and TenTen used to defeat their doppelgangers are direct references to their ultimate attacks in Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja.
Another great reaction video for sure! But come on man, how did you miss the opportunity to crank a Mortal Kombat joke during Sakura’s fight! It totally warranted a Scorpio screenshot!
I do appreciate people thinking I have the repertoire of every franchise in my utility belt for references. But I never played or watched anything Mortal Kombat :(
Yeaaaaaaaahhhhhhh....... Sakura chiyo sasori fight!! Hehee.. love the animation on the fight scene plus the hype bgm?!! Come. On. I got chills everytime.
i binged naruto during quarantine and loved it but didn’t give the episodes enough time to digest. rewatching these episodes w SoloRaiju has me appreciating the show all over again and getting emotional at scenes i wouldn’t have 4 years ago. thank u SoloRaiju your reactions are so perceptive and genuine
Dude it’s been like watching Naruto with my best bud and sharing the same hijinks, theories and funny moments throughout the series. Bro I cannot wait for you to watch the rest of the arcs. Some crazy story writing coming your way. Thanks for being so awesome man, this has been a blast.
goddamn, it hit me harder than usual this time since i lost someone close to me last week. it was an amazing reaction! looking forward to the next arc. Not my favorite, but still a good one!
sakura's "get over here" made me so hyped when this aired. i miss weekly watching naruto. 😭 chat was great, i was peeling potatoes while watching the last half during premiere. just finished the first half. thank you for the reaction, as always!
Raiju: "all that confidence and now he's hiding like a bitch." Deidara: "HELLO!? Earth to big shot! i'm walking around like The Black Knight from Monty Python over here! cant even defend myself at the moment."
54:10 I have never seen this part 😂😂 that move is normal in all the games but I never knew that’s what he did 😭 I seen that fight so many times that’s why I love rewatching the entire thing
i love the orange mask akatsuki guy hes so funny, bro i love watching ur reactions ty for spoiling us recently here to more good ones 🍻the show only gets better tbh bro but this is def a AMAZING arc
I love your reactions towards this anime. I was crying when Gaara revived and then chuckled because of your funny inputs and memes lmao I hope you react to the whole series! I can't wait.
57:58 right after you said that I got an ad for that “Smile 2” movie. It was jarring 😂 bc the ad said something like “you see that man smiling?” just after you had said that 😂 so weird. RU-vid was like “oh I’m cooking: know exactly what ad to place here” 🤣🤣
Yeah the copycat fights are widely considered the worst fights in Naruto. Also the only fight Tenten wins in a 1v1 which is really sad. Tenten's only win is against herself even in filler.
The first episode of Naruto I ever watched was Forest of Death when Sakura cut her hair and 1v3 the sound ninja. The first episodes of Shippuden that I saw not long after were these episodes of Sakura and Chiyo vs Sasori I was under the impression for a LONG time that the fan base was all in agreement that Sakura was a bad ass, and one of the best characters in the show... Clears throat**
I didn’t have a way to watch Dragon Ball where I’m from while growing up, Naruto was my first big anime. As a Naruto fan in all honesty I was a big DB can but I binged it and I loved it, specially DBS because is more modern, more according to what I grew up up watching but overall great! I’m pretty sure I’m not the only Naruto fan out there appreciating DB and you for going out your favorite/comfort anime and trying out and loving Naruto! Respect!
I am shocked! Can't wait for you to get to the Pain Arc because that's one Arc that should be back to back with how crazy it is Also Sakura did the Gohan training and learned how to DODGE!!! You will learn that Tobi is a GOOD BOI!
Raiju: "Shikamaru would analyze the situation and quit." Shikamaru: "you judging me for what i did during COMPETITION is such a drag... judge me when things are really on the line."
I thought i was crazy, but one of those puppets Sakura and Chiyo fought had a sharingan, never noticed that in my whole life, that means one of the people Sasori took down, may have been an Uchiha 😮
Man, i hate "reaction content" on RU-vid. They're a lazy way to get views using content created by others! You are the CLEAR exception to this. Your takes are as entertaining as the show you're watching, and you edit the videos in a way they serve as a quick rewatch for the audience! We need the "react people" to learn with you. Great videos, man! And great charisma
The moments between Naruto and Chiyo are one of the best parts of the show in my opinion. They are overshadowed because there are so many epic moments throughout the show, and this is so early on.
The characterization and writing choices for Sakura can be pretty frustrating, but this arc has many of her best moments for sure! If Sakura didn’t recklessly protect Chiyo potentially at the cost of her own life, Chiyo likely would have died from being stabbed even if she was given the last antidote. No one else knew the reanimation jutsu Chiyo knows. So if Sakura didn’t choose to protect Chiyo, and Chiyo died there, Gaara would be dead too with no way to be revived.
Related to Naruto: Years ago, there was a Disney channel movie called "BRINK". In this movie when Brink was having the hardest time in the skate competition where nothing was landing and he was DEFEATED he then gets called up to the crowd where his mom and little sister were. The little sister then ask him if she could give him some advice that will turn all of this around as it is apparently the best advise in the world. She says, "skate better". Which he then repeats with a smile on his face and all of a sudden the problem is solved and he wins the competition. This has stuck with me my whole life, how bad this part of the movie was. This is what Lees advise was to the team on how to beat the clones. "Stonger then we were yesterday" is basically, "Fight better"... "yeeeeeaaahhh fight better." Then they win. Such cheap writing to solve a problem. "If your homelss, just buy a house." This also makes no sense as they have been fighting continuously for a really long time, so they should be very fatigued. So how would they be stronger after so long then when they started and not tired or fatigued?
22:43 It's actually a bit more complicated than that, keeping the object in is only when you're able to keep the wound from expanding and you're able to keep the damaged body part from moving, or at least you're able to move/transport the patient without agitating the wound. So for certain organs it is always better to remove the object instead of keeping it in. I am not a doctor, I am only paraphrasing what I remembered hearing from a doctor; Don't take this as actual medical advice, make sure to ACTUALLY consult a doctor for these types of situations; And if you're currently going through this situation yourself right now, why are you watching this YT video and reading these comments instead of actually looking for help?
