| Oh boy, they got the fights for the Chunin Exams. Not going to lie, that got a bit...chaotic at the arena. Gotta say, Inojin is really picking up the pace for his team. I still wish this Chunin Exams was worth following though as the pacing still feels strange. |
 |
| Seems like it's about time for the show to go on. The first showdown is between Inojin and the Kakashi-looking kid, Houki. Houki is really strong but Inojin is not backing down at all. Good to see these kids making progress. That was a cool little fight IMO. Cool to see them shaking hands after the match. And, once again, it is Chunin Exams, so something is about to go wrong with it. LOL. Let's just see what is it this time around. |
 |
| Was routing for Houki since the fight was set in last weeks previews. Beast Scroll as well as Mind Transfer are strictly support ninjutsu. Inojin will probably never win a 1v1 in this series because of that. He has the potential to trap his opponent in place THEN use Mind Transfer but his chakra control needs work. Houki has "copy ninja" 2.0 with his photographic memory. His eyes darted around like a sharingan users. And not to mention Anbu training, like breaking weak genjutsus, more advanced taijutsu progress, dont forget the name Houki. And finally I know what Kawaki is doing, he's playing coy for now about holding off on his shinobi training. He's watching the top of what would be considered his class fight and analyzing them since he only knows a fraction of possible ninjutsu techniques from what he's witnessed between the last two arcs. All these different types of ways to use chakra to fight and defend. Not a betting man but iif it was just taijutsu combat Im wiling to bet he can hold his own against any of these finalist. excluding Sarada and Boruto |
 I'm going to be the Wizard Hokage of the Pirates!!!! |
| Yo my boi Houki Win. will definitely be a future Anbu, I didn't expect houki to do such an insane earth style. Nice try Inojin. What happened to Amado lol. |
| It was like 5 min fight and im a bit dissapointed but Houki wins, nice for that boi. I'm sad that Shikadai needs to wait for next chunin exams for his friends to catch up. It seems unfair that Sai taught Houki the only thing he could use against Inojin lol |
 |
| It was a pretty unfair match up for Inojin but you can't decide your opponent in real battles so it is what it is. I'm suprised by Houki's chakrapool for sure.. How the hell did he manage to cover the whole stadium with his wood jutsu? That's some insane shit he did there. He didn't use a lot of jutsu's beside his photographic memory so it's kinda understandable. Anyway, Inojin got a bit too cocky after he managed to lure Houki into his trap. Sadly, he was mentally trained against attacks like that. It would have been a thousand times funnier if they put Kakashi's image when Houki said ''I'll be the one to win'' LOL. On the otherside, Boruto and Mitsuki are going after some shady guys who captured Amado but seems like they're not on the train anymore. I guess they'll appear at the chunin exam at the last seconds.. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| So Houki won as expected, and now how are they going to fix the stadium arena? |
| I didn't have much expectations for this chuunin exam but Houki blew me away with amazement with his incredible earth style jutsu. For a copy of the copycat ninja Kakashi, Houki is a beast. |
 |
| My thoughts of today's Episode is, I enjoyed Inojin-kun and Houki-kun's battle. That Doton Toujinbo is amazing. Inojin-kun is really close but Houki-kun's already trained well to mental attacks by Sai-san. What's with Amado-san? 😅 Hope Boruto-kun and Mitsuki-kun find him right away! |

| I was right with my prediction that houki wins, inojin was no joke really good but houki has learned the technique of the Anbu. Pacin of the chunin examen is ok. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| Damn they are using Hima and her friends to pulling out Boruto and Mitsuki out of Chunin exam arena. Once again Konoha security must be in a great question by how easily Amado, the exact important person from the previous arc, took away by such a bandits. At least i got what i wish, Sai expression is enough to put an end to this episode. Inojin actually unlucky and should be more careful against some kid under the Anbu teaching. As expected he became too cocky and Houki paid his previous mistake with a good counter. Next, based on the title Wasabi will most likely win. If not, rip Wasabi's team... |

| One prediction correct so far. If all goes according to plan, Wasabi should win the next one. The episode itself was cool. |

| Nice fight. Houki using Earth Style to build terrain to his advantage. Didn't know he had such an impressive memory (they probably mentioned it in the episode introducing their team. Can't remember if it was brought up though. It's times like this I wish they got more fleshed out.). Plus, Inojin's feint at the end was pretty good. Curious about the kind of cameras they have so the spectators could see through the rock maze that Houki made. Speaking of the maze, Shikadai and Cho-cho got to Inojin rather quickly O_O? |
| Notice: I read most manga in Japanese now so I'm not sure where you can read in English. Sorry in advance. |
| I'm quite happy Houki got his well deserved win. Yes his chakra capacity just amazed me since he managed to cover the entire arena but what I found even more amazing was the speed of those hand seals o.o it kinda reminded me of Kakashi VS Zabuza. Seems he has potential to be Kakashi Jr afterall 😁✌️ Next match is....meh. Wasabi's entire team is meh. I'm sorry 😅 but she might win otherwise their team will be without a chunin. I'd like to see Sarada VS Tsubaki 😁 And I feel like Boruto and Mitsuki will both be disqualified 🤣 |

Yeah I think Houki's photographic memory was mentioned before. If I remember correctly, Kakashi, under his photographer disguise, was the one who proposed their team work under Sai after he found out about their abilities. I don't remember too well which episode it was though. It was around the arc where all the academy kids went on part time jobs HAHA |

I think Houki was feeling as if his teammates weren't pulling their weight or something at that time but then realized they were doing what they were capable of in their own way. |

| I wasn’t expecting the inojin/kakashi jr fight to have sakuga like that tbh damn that was really cool. |

| Inojin was close but Houki had that last trick up his sleeve. Nice fight to kick off these 1 on 1 battles. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |

Once again Konoha security must be in a great question by how easily Amado, the exact important person from the previous arc, took away by such a bandits. i didn't even think about it this way, but damn, i swear every anime does dumb stuff for drama lol (just like another seasonal "you're forbiddent to contact us for 5 years" ... "why didn't you write a letter?") , them taking amado was the most random thing ever, unless that was part amado's plan ... but as usual, the kids are the ones to notice/act , specially the ones who should be at another place at that time... oh whatever :D edit: do they ever think about sending a shadow clone/snake/whatever to call for help before leaving the village? ... |

| ngl this Anime Canon Episodes fight was way better than i expected. I kinda like it they make Inojin lose, anyone remember who is Ino-Shika-Cho Captain again? Next Iwabe vs Wasabi. hell yeah i can't wait |
 |
| and i thought Houki's mental fortitude was the answer to his overcoming of the mind transfer jutsu of Inojin...lolz it was another jutsu blocking technique specialize for Anbu! hmmm Amado got kidnapped like that!? i don't buy it! lolz 4/5. |
 |
| Too bad Inojin lost but there's always next time. |
 |
| I couldn't give two cents to the whole Amado sub-plot, looks like another excuse to have Boruto and Mitsuki late for the exam for extra shock factor, unless it develops into something interesting, I hope. Inojin and Houki really got me going, I like this match up, but I can't say the same for the next one, I hope I'm proven wrong. |
| what a surprisingly good episode! Hopefully the next fight will be also that good. I'm wondering what happened to Amado |
 |
| Not bad. Good on Houki. But uh... scared for Chocho. Wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't make it. Still wouldn't be surprised if she ends up facing Sarada. |
