Kumo is acting really dumb if they just let a hygua corpse just walk away and make no fuss. I guess that since he only has one eye, we will soon find out he performed Izanagi with the Byakugan to survive.

But yea. Last episode wasted time with what was essentially filler inside a filler. The preview implied this was about the masked man (that's even the name of the episode!) but literally half of it was the filler-ception again and another quarter was talking about anything but the masked man.

They've mentioned several times now their plan to get to the village to report what's happened. really, if one of the teams had left the first time they mentioned it, Minato would already have Hiraishin'd to the battlefield by now.

I can stand filler. I can even like it. But this filler is purposefully made to be as agonizing as possible, which i don't understand. Pierrot did good filler before, why do they have to be so crap now?
