Ah. This was the episode with the pyschic fear-inducing guy, and the homeless population.

I remember feeling really, really bad for Sakaki in this episode. First the guy he follows goes insane runs right in front of a truck, then another person tries to do the same thing, and then finally the same thing almost happens to him himself. Poor guy.

nly about 4 or 5 months have passed, I think, by the time you get to ep 71, where I am, and already they've grown up a lot.

Hmm, that's weird. Because I've read that there's a turning point somewhere down the line where they're gonna essentially start with a time gap between now and when they're older. I just assumed it had happened already since this information's been on a few Naruto forums. Oh well.

ok, I should be more clear. Grown up a lot in terms of maturity, not physically-- as I said, it's only been around 4 or 5 months as I can tell. They're definitely growing up faster than they are aging.

I hadn't heard about a time gap... that's interesting. It would leave room for a lot of fic. That might have happened in the manga, but I'm unspoiled for the manga, and it hasn't yet happened in the anime. The anime just started on a conflict/ story arc that I estimate (juding by the pacing of the show so far) will last at least another 15 episodes, maybe more.
