I actually enjoyed the episode, it was something different. It also showed that Team 8 isn't just a team that wins all the time, they aslo lose sometimes. I mean, if they had won that fight, there would have been no substance to the Chunin exam. Everyone has a moment when they win, and that moment when they lose. Team Kurenai had to lose a fight because if they didn't they wouldn't be seen as true characters, because they would have in no way gotten emotion out of us. The reason for episodes like this are to give us those little looks into characters we normally don't gert to see.
