There's a minor plot hole. How were Temari, Gaara and Kankurō promoted to Chūnin when according to Tsunade they haven't had one since the Orochimaru attack two years back. Its not a big issue but anime messed up. You would think also that the anime adapters would know that if its been two years and Temari or Kankurō weren't printed like Shikamaru that they would have to take the Chūnin Exams.

As for the episode overall it was nice. So it seems Sakura will join Team Asuma taking Shikamaru's spot. Konan! I missed you! New character Fu. She acts like Naruto albeit not completely but basically substitute since he won't take part in the Chūnin Exams. Lol for the meeting with sensei about entering their team, only 3 ppl have teams known. Asuma, Kurenai, and Guy. Anko, no. Raido, no. I could on. Most likely we won't even see any other Konoha-nin besides the main teams. But again the episode was good. So far the only problem overall is the Sand Siblings promotion.
