10 Second Anime - Naruto Shippuuden - Episode 429



Killer B Rappuuden, Part 1. Killer B's dream world has him recruiting the other Jinchuuriki to recover their Tailed Beasts' missing chakra.

Episode 429 - "Killer B Rappuuden, Part 1"

Meh.

I don't want to say this filler is as bad as some hairy beast pissing all over Naruto's back, but... Nope, nothing can beat that. Yay! We have one more episode of this! I really hope this isn't some stupid ploy for Killer B to form a rap group with all the Jinchuuriki.

Heh.

One thing going for this filler arc is seeing all the chibi bijuu. Always a good thing.



I'm not sure how to translate this Rappuuden (落風伝). For Shippuuden, it was literally "fast wind legend." Here, we still have the wind legend part, but 落 (raku) means "fall, drop, come down." The kanji also has the sense of something that is missing or omitted. Where Naruto after the time skip was the Legend of the Fast Wind (sometimes translated as Hurricane Chronicles), this might be the Missing Wind Legend. Or like Untold Wind Story. Aw crap. It might just be one of those Japanese-English puns Killer B likes to make too - for Rap Legend. Guh.

Part of why I was reminded of those awful filler episodes after the Sasuke Rescue arc ended was because we hadn't had any jokes about Tsunade's gambling or impressive figure since that time.

Killer B loves that word "brother," but the way it's pronounced in Japanese is also how they say "brassiere." Yes, Tsunade is no brother and she's also wearing no brassiere. Way to go B...

 

Welp, they really decided to milk these dream world stories 'til the end of the Summer season. At least we'll get to see all the chibi tailed beasts next episode. Hopefully, they won't be putting on a rap concert with Killer B.
