Summary:
Naruto Shippuuden is the continuation of the original animated TV series Naruto.The story revolves around an older and slightly more matured Uzumaki Naruto and his quest to save his friend Uchiha Sasuke from the grips of the snake-like Shinobi, Orochimaru. After 2 and a half years Naruto finally returns to his village of Konoha, and sets about putting his ambitions to work, though it will not be easy, as He has amassed a few (more dangerous) enemies, in the likes of the shinobi organization; Akatsuki.
Now, this anime is very hard to place. The story may seem good to people who just watch it in an uncaring way, but it's actually really bad. It's just about Naruto searching for Sasuke. The Akatsuki are really just in the way, and Naruto just saves the world by defeating them, but doesn't care. He needs to find Sasuke.
So yeah, the plot sucks. Now, the dialogue can be funny sometimes, but it isn't much better than the plot. It's very shallow most of the time.
The worst part of it all in my opinion is the animation. It is horrible, and doesn't get any better until after more than 100 episodes. The fillers make it even worse.
The only good thing about this series is that it is entertaining. The battles are interesting, as everyone has different abilities (such as controlling paper, or being a plant O.o), and I am actually sort of interested in the remaining Akatsuki, although even if they have got some really interesting thing going on with the Akatsuki, Sasuke is still the main point, and that's annoying.
Overall, this isn't exactly a series I could recommend to anyone, unless you don't care about the plot/story and just want to see action, in which case you may enjoy this anime.
