I don’t why this episode is called the chunin exam, especially since it doesn’t happen for another week. Oh well, let’s check in on Naruto, who gets back from all that excitement just to end up giving Sasuke the cold shoulder again.

Now this is kind of weird, wasn’t he the one that was all tore up when he thought Sasuke was dead? Who knows, maybe he was just acting and deep down he really wanted Sasuke out of the picture for good.

Anyway, the gang is ready for the next mission, only thing is, the next couple of exercises are not that exciting. Once again Naruto tries to outdo Sasuke, but continues to get into trouble.

First he tries to beat Sasuke at pulling up weeds, but screws that up when he pulls up this lady’s herbs instead. Now here’s Naruto, supporting a new black eye, trying to pull garbage out of the water, but trips, and almost get trapped into a waterfall. Sasuke saves him, and calls Naruto a loser.

“Shut up Sasuke! If Naruto didn’t handle Haku in [6] episode 17, you wouldn’t be around anymore, so you can kiss off!” Sorry, I didn’t mean to get off track, but that kid gets on my royal nerves.

Anyway, in the next mission they are walking dogs. Can you guess who picks the biggest dog who leads him into a mine field? You guessed it, and so now we have a burnt-to-a-crisp Naruto and dog on our hands.

Somehow Kakashi is tired (probably from reading Makeout Paradise), and he tells everyone to go home. Sakura hits on Sasuke one more time, but he’s really not interested in her. He says that she’s as bad as Naruto, and that she should be working on her jutsu instead of flirting. Wow, somebody just got TREATED!!!!

[10]

Anyway, Naruto runs into Konohamaru and his two bratty friends, and now he has to play Ninja with them. “Good luck getting out of this one Naruto.” Konohamaru mistakes Sakura for Naruto’s girlfriend, and I don’t hear him trying to deny it either.

[11]

Sakura gets pissed off and BAM! No more Naruto. At least, not for the next couple of minutes. Konohamaru calls her an ugly witch, and POW! No more Konohamaru for another couple of minutes.

[12]

Konohamaru retaliates by telling Sakura that she has a wide forehead, Uh oh, I guess the 1st grandson of the honorable hokage won’t be around too long. No, not because of Sakura, but because of this weird dude named Kankuro.

Not only is this guy an ugly beast, but he’s also a bully, look at what he’s doing to poor little Konohamaru! Naruto tries to step in, but this guy has a powerful attack to catch Naruto off guard. But guess who comes to the rescue?

[13]

[14]

[15]

You got it, every girl’s dream, and Naruto’s nightmare. As you see the girl’s love him! “Well Sasuke, get out there, and beat this guy Kankuro down to the ground since you’re supposed to be such a bad ass.”

[16]

Wait, now someone else has entered the picture, Gaara who stops Kankuro from taking further action. But who is this guy, and what does his gang want?
