![]() ![]() The pace at which the two discovered they were fighting each other was perfect. It's a pretty good trick and one of the best ones we've seen on the show in general. At first it looked like Gai and Lee were facing individual training dummies in separate fights, but it becomes clear that the brothers have made it now where Gai and Lee are both fighting each other. ![]() The brothers lure Lee into the structure where Gai is being held and Lee runs into another training dummy. ![]() The team has a pretty hard time getting through all of them and that's mostly what they end up doing the whole episode. Training dummies being potential opponents sounds like a really bad plot, but the writers make it work really well here by giving good explanations of how they're able to move and everything. Neji, using his Byakugan, notices that the dummies are being controlled using a seal and then later realized that some of them were being controlled by Yagara's jutsu (for this review I'll refer to him as Yagara). Naruto underestimates how strong the dummies actually are though and ends up paying the price for it. The team comes face to face with the training dummies themselves. With Gai trapped, the cavalry comes to save him in the form of Naruto, Ten-Ten, and Neji. In the last episode Gai took on training dummies that were far from normal and by the end of the episode he was trapped inside of a house constructed from the pieces of the wooden dummies. Gai had a run-in with the brother's father years ago and defeated him and the brothers are avenging their father's death, because they think he died in despair over being beaten. The scenes didn't make any sense until it's revealed that fake Yagara is really Genshou, the oldest of his three brothers, Rokkaku and Jako also known as the Ryuudoin. The black and white flashback in the beginning of the episode was cool. ![]()
