After finishing all 220 episodes of Naruto a few weeks ago, I was left excited to start Naruto Shippuden, and the first episode, as expected, turned out to be fantastic. From the very first second, it grips you with excitement and tension, delivering the return of the much loved characters from the original show, with a bang! I am glad the animation style hasn't changed much, and the transition from the last episode of the original show is beautifully felt. The opening and closing songs are both melodious and catchy. This is one of the best first episodes in an anime, with good action and humor, and a great start to the continuation of a legend's story.
