NARUTO-SAKURA BLOSSOMS!-EPISODE 32-3 1/2 STARS

22. September 2008 by Ria.

Rock Lee is in a lot of trouble right now, and it’s all because of Sakura, the dumb chick with the pink hair who can’t fight. One of the hidden sound ninjas shows us a jutsu called the wall, right after he gives us a brief run down on the anatomy of the ear and how it operates. Well how nice, but I really didn’t ask for all that.

After ear anatomy 101, this dude goes after Sakura, but Rock has a little life left in him, so he tries to fight, but it’s no use. Now while all this is happening, Ino’s team is watching from the shadows, and they realize Sakura and Rock may end up a corpse when this is all over. Ino can’t decide if rescuing Sakura is the wisest thing to do, especially since they can’t stand each other, and is a scardey-cat herself.

For some reason (like to annoy me), Ino has a flashback when she and Sakura were friends, then became enemies all because of Sasuke. How dumb. Does Sasuke know either of their last names? Once again I’m totally disappointed. We girls are supposed to stick together, and not let some lone emo dude get in the way.

So now it’s Sakura’s turn to get slapped around a bit. The lady ninja grabs Sakura’s hair, and tells her that if she spent more time on her jutsu instead of shampooing, she wouldn’t be in this mess. Who in the hell is gonna argue with that statement? Uh oh, here comes the tears. “Save it Sakura, Kakashi never should have let you on the team, now you’re gonna end up dead. Bye stupid chick!”

Wait a minute, maybe we shouldn’t count her out yet. Through a series of flashbacks Sakura has a rude awakening, takes out her knife, and cuts her hair to free herself from this lady ninja’s grasp, and things get all dramatic.

This is a sad moment, especially since Sasuke is supposed to like girls with long hair. Hey, I didn’t spread that rumor, so stop looking over here. But we all know that’s a load of garbage, does Sasuke really look like the type of guy who would sit in a crowd, and start talking about girls and their hair?

But hey, it’s Ino’s flashback, so you’ll have to talk to her about that, I’m just reporting what I see. Now back to Sakura who suddenly realizes that it’s her turn to take the lead, and everyone can watch her from the background. That’s all well and good, but I still want to know what kind of jutsu she plans to use to fight these three hidden sound ninjas.

Sakura answers the question by using a string of substitution jutsus to get away from those fools, but they’re able to keep up. Eventually one gets caught off guard, and Sakura gets a good lick in, and tries to bite the dude’s arm off. Meanwhile, he’s bashing her head in with his fist. Gee, I wonder will he lose his arm before Sakura loses her brain?

Ino’s team have seen enough, and decide to intervene. “Thank goodness you showed up when you did Ino, ’cause Sakura looks like hell! A couple more blows to the head, and it probably would have fallen off. Hey, take a quick snapshot of her looking like that, and threaten to show it to Sasuke if she ever tries to hit on him again, okay?”
