Ep 96. Blood, Sweat, and Namida

Team 15 have just returned from their mission with a few bumps and bruises. Namida has been feeling particularly dejected lately, given the tough situations that she often finds herself in. To try and lift her spirits, Wasabi suggests that the three of them head to the hot springs.

Upon arriving at the hot springs, they are introduced to a group of shinobi who are there to train and hone their skills. Among them is none other than Metal Lee, the son of Rock Lee and a fellow member of the next generation of ninjas.

Despite their rocky start, due to Namida's insecurities, the two groups soon find themselves spending time together and even engaging in some friendly competition. One of the shinobi from the other group, however, is not interested in friendly competition and causes trouble by damaging one of the hot springs.

The team is forced to work together to repair the hot spring, and Namida proves her worth by using her unique abilities to help fix the problem. In the end, the two groups have gained a newfound respect for each other, and Namida has gained some much-needed confidence in her abilities.
