Episode 25 - This Is It! The Last Stand, Question #10

Time ticks away as Naruto gets all tense. Finally, the 10th question is about to be given. Ibiki then gives a last rule, the "hopeless rule". Meanwhile, outside the exam halls, Kakashi, Asuma and Kurenai wonder how their teams are doing. The note that Ibiki is Konoha ANBU's interrogation and torture squad leader and is an expert in mental torture. They are certain that Ibiki is giving the examinees a tough time. Ibiki then explains that they are given the decision to take the 10th question or not. However, the catch is if you not to take it, you will fail and thus, your entire team fails as well. On the other hand, if you decide to take the 10th question and fail it, you will lose the privilege of ever taking the Chuuni Exam again and will remain a Genin forever. One after another, examinees leave the room. Naruto slowly raises his hand but only to slam it down at the last moment. Naruto then states that he's come this far and no matter what the outcome, he will take the question. Naruto's outburst wipes off everyone else's uncertainty and 78 Genins remain. Ibiki announces that everyone in the room passes and there is no such thing as the 10th question. He then explains the purpose of the test. The pass/fail decision of the entire team was created to put heavy pressure on the Genins. The second thing is the test was made way too hard for Genins to answer and was actually created to test their ability to gather information through stealth and techniques. The 10th question is made to be similar to a real life situation of a shinobi where decisions regarding your life are to be made. He continues that shinobi missions are always risky and courage and confidence are a necessity of a Chuunin who will hold steadfast to their decisions. Suddenly, an examiner breaks through the window and announces the second exam examiner, Mitarashi Anko is here. After observing that 78 remains from a total of 153, she tells Ibiki that he has lost his touch and has become too lenient but vows that she will reduce the number to less than half. The following morning, the remaining participants gather at the 44th training area "The Forest of Death."
