When else would it come? It doesnt make sense to use a new opening in the middle of this short arc.

Normally, new openings/endings had always debuted on April and October. So, it's kinda odd to suddenly release it on May.

^ Not odd when you consider the 1% chance that Filluden is coming to an end because the anime is finally ending now. lol

AKFG are back!

Yay, Asian Kung Fu Generation!

So, I'm guessing Sukima Switch came onboard because they did the theme song for The Last Movie (which was amazing - the song, I mean, not the movie) and they were trying to make symbolic references to the final arc of the series. Maybe because of ERASED, this theme is meant to symbolize how Naruto is coming back from Itachi to save Sasuke, aka his true love? Hm?

I think Viz should be a doing a broadcast dub of this Itachi arc considering how popular that guy is and I am sure Crispin Freeman would enjoy seeing Itachi's background even more.

What was the point of putting spoiler[Kaguya] in the last opening.

The scene where spoiler[she overpowers Madara] will probably happen in the last episode of LINE's run (btw that is a great song).

Actually they already confirmed that they will go back to canon after this arc.

To be perfectly honest, you can't blame people for expecting the anime to outlast Keith Richards and Ozzy Osbourne. And they've still got another few centuries to live between them.

Well yeah, the anime's been going on for a very long time and at this point is being dragged out. Despite the confirmation, I can't deny that I want this series to end despite it being my favorite. I'm pretty sure the only person in the entire world who is in complete filler denial is Double4Anime - even Pierrot is just throwing out whatever they want.
