I am pretty sure the appearance of his face like that was intentional and I thought it was a kind of neat effect if maybe a little odd.

your looking at one still frame of an anime and complaining about the entire animation. I see flaws in that.

If you look to the post with the YouTube clip you'll see that this was the style of the entire episode.

I didn't find the episode to be actually "bad" just completely bizarre, it was like nothing seen in any other episode. I really enjoy the episodes where the animation is... loose, almost sketchy, which is the same style this episode except they added a bunch of really bizarre facial expressions and some pretty comical stunts (the nailing into the ground thing had me laughing)

At the very least it gives me a good reason to keep watching the anime despite having first read the manga.

I downloaded the video just because of how awesome it is. The ending literally would have made me shoot milk out of my nose if I had been drinking it. "Great Episode"

Bah, the onemanga version of 500 isn't nearly as epic as mangastream.

"This child won't live a minute longer" is so not as cool as "This child will die at the ripe age of one minute".

Animation was great! so entertaining, even though silly. I always imagined Pain was completely reserved when fighting, in terms of facial expressions, even if he were angry/shouting. Which is why I find the distorted face (like in that screen shot, "my pain is greater than yours!")

The roadrunner bit was hilarious.

So was the part where the fox slammed his head 3 times with the pillar of rock, then he asked "Do you hate me?"

Great stuff. (The animation style of the faces.. reminds me of that terribad SFIV anime one-shot thing)

I thought the animation was pretty funny in this latest one. Pain's face became horribly distorted, which is fun to watch...

And then I read the Manga....which like....blew my mind. Though I miss the old days of just cruel, plain old simple violence, I'm really liking how there seems to be cliffhangers that leave viewers wanting more.

I wish I could listen/read Japanese....*sigh*

I hope the Tekken insert means the fighting game is actually going to be good. But then again, it is Tekken and Naruto, so it is like advertising how horrible of a game it will be.

Its funny how good the game looks compared to the anime though.

Anime was subpar, maybe it was the quality that I watched though, and the manga was eh. 2/5 for both.

Just watched the anime. I don't like the distortion of the face, makes it look like The Simpsons or something. This is supposed to be a serious and epic battle, it needs properness and respect.

Also the battle was quite weird, I don't remember it from the manga but it was too overdone. It was shown that the Pain bodies aren't that strong and Naruto destroyed several of them with ease. But suddenly the last Pain body somehow has incredible speed and godly endurance, fighting hand to hand with Nine-Tails cloak. Orochimaru needed his immortal-snake-style and the invincible sword to be able to fight off the Nine-Tails, but still he mostly fought from range. It shouldn't be possible for Pain to melee the Nine-Tails. The last scene with the Vegeta-DBZ-style barrage of energy attacks and Pain repelling them all was too ridiculous. What happened to 5-second delay between usages of his technique?

Overall though, I regret reading the manga and recommend just watching the anime. The anime tries to make things more believable, since they have to animate it, whereas the manga has moments where you're just like "wtf???" Plus the anime makes the fights more epic.

Watch that video a few posts up, I dont know if the animation of these episodes were done by a seperate team or not, but the art is definitely very different in these fast paced fights.

I dont know about you, but I prefer reading the manga and watching the anime every week. You get to know whats going on in the latest chapters and at the same time also watch episodes of what you read months ago.

yo vnlegend, i don't think pain was using his technique to stop those blasts.. i think he was just blocking them with chakra.

(I do agree that it was all over the top and unrealistic to the storyline though.. but maybe pain is just stronger when he's only controlling 1 guy)
