This review is from: Naruto OVA - The Lost Story (DVD)

This seems to fall between the 2nd and 3rd seasons, before the Chunin Exam story arc but doesn't really have a specific timeframe stated. A good Naruto storyline. Nothing spectacular, but not disappointing either, just more Naruto. That's not a bad thing...

This review is from: Naruto OVA - The Lost Story (DVD)

This dvd should be considered a mini-movie. It exsists outside of the series story arcs. I think this a fun and dramatic story within the Naruto universe. This dvd contains both the english televised version and the uncut original with japanese audio, which is always a pluse for me. Any true Naruto fan would find this dvd to be a must have.

2.0 out of 5 stars It should have stayed lost, August 28, 2007

This review is from: Naruto OVA - The Lost Story (DVD)

I am a Naruto fan somewhat, and I had high hopes for this. However, it fell short of my expectations. The story is about Naruto and the rest of his team escorting a cowardly leader named Shibuki to his village, but things get mixed up when an old enemy named Suien appears in the village and tries to steal it's treasure, the Hero's Water. While this may seem exciting, it's actually quite boring once you actually watch it. Naruto and Shibuki talk for an extended period of time, which takes out a lot. So far, this is bad. Very bad.

I won't spoil anything, but if you're a Sakura fan, don't buy this. She's tied up half the time. While the fight scenes are at least decent to good, they don't last long enough to hold your attention for very long, Thus comes to the conclusion of my review. It may seem good to some people, but to most, it's just some practical joke created for a good series. A very bad pratical joke.
