Killer Kunoichi and a Shaky Shikamaru

is episode 43 of the original Naruto anime.

Synopsis
Tenten and Temari are chosen to fight next. Tenten makes the first move and Temari easily dodges it. Team Guy was surprised that no weapon could even scratch or hit Temari. Tenten tries another attack that Temari repels using wind from her Giant Folding Fan after Temari warns Tenten that if she sees all three stars (moons in the anime) from her fan the fight will be over. Tenten uses her Twin Rising Dragons technique. Uncovering the second moon, Temari repels the attack, then Tenten uses strings to use the weapons. Uncovering all moons, she repels the attack and traps Tenten in a cyclone, thus Temari winning the fight.

Shikamaru and Kin Tsuchi are then next. Shikamaru tries the Shadow Imitation Technique but Kin easily repels and attacks him with her senbon. She uses them as an attack which uses bells and strings. Shikamaru starts to fell in the attack which attack his ears to his brain. Shikamaru sees numerous Kins, and attack him. Kin tries to attack again but she can't move after Shikamaru tells her that she got caught in the Shadow Imitation Technique and explains how. He then throws a shuriken at Kin which she imitates when Shikamaru dodges backwards. Kin imitates but she did not realize that she was too close to the wall, knocking herself.

It was announced that Shikamaru has won the battle. The names appear on the screen and Naruto and Kiba are chosen to fight next.
