So I just watched this and found many problems with it. By the way, I should mention that I don't hate the dubbed version of Naruto, just this episode kinda put a downer of the the dubbed series.

First of the conversations between Sai and Shin don't make any sense whatsoever.

For example, during their fight while they were in the foundation, he addressed Sai by his name despite Sai not having a name at that point.

Secondly, Shin then acted like he had never called Sai by that name and was pretty much like 'oh, you have a name now?'

Now I could be completely wrong on this, I don't entirely remember but I'm pretty sure that 'Sai' was just a name given to him by Tsunade for being on Team Kakashi, much like Yamato had his given by her.

Lastly, in the manga and subbed version of the anime, Shin 'moved on' from learning that his adoptive brother was now called 'Sai' and seeing the picture book completed. Yet if people don't read the manga, or watch the Japanese version, and only watch the English version, then it's gonna leave them confused as to how Shin moved on. Did he move on because of seeing the picture book, or because he learnt that his adoptive brother was now called 'Sai' which he apparently already foresaw many years before the name was given?

Quite a confusing English version of this episode. Inaccurate too.
