"Naruto Vol. 2" finds Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke and their teacher, the one-eyed Kakashi, on their first "real" assignment as Genin, or Junior Ninja. (After having passed Kakashi's test to be full-fledged Ninja, of course!) The foursome are hired to protect Tazuna, a gruff and unfriendly bridge builder from the Land of the Waves. Tazuna is being hunted by The Demon Zabuza, a fearsome outlaw ninja who slaughtered his entire graduating class from The-Village-Hidden-in-the-Mist.

Volume 2 expands on the themes brought up in Volume 1. Naruto is still an almost unlikable brat, but his potential comes out more and more. Kakashi serves as a teacher both to the reader and to Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke, unfolding tales of the Chakras, the Kage ninja leaders, and other essentials of author Kishimoto's ninja fantasy world. The secret of Kakashi's hidden eye is revealed as well in an awesome battle with The Demon Zabuza.

Everything really starts to take off with this volume. The stage has been set, the characters have been established, and now the ride begins.

Yeah, I heard a nasty rumor that 4-Kids (the same people responsible for the REALLY bad dub of Pokemon) have the rights to the animated series version of this manga. If this is true, then get this manga before 4-Kids completely turns you off to it. This is a great manga, along with it's first manga. It's more serious than volume one of course, but still manages to entertain hugely. But PLEASE, I beg ya, read this before 4-Kids releases the English version of the series!

This is real great book to read its like watching the show but with no sound, but why do they make manga kinda confuseing to read when i read manga books i get kinda confused cause 1. the front cover shows you what way to read but when you think thats the way you read it says you're reading the wrong way, 2. when it tells you whitch way to read it still fells like you're reading it the wrong way, thats the confuseing parts about manga but this book was great.

Hey, if you're a naruto fan this book is very entertaining and fun to read.Also this book will keep you itching to learn what kind of mission naruto and his friends have to do next!!!And last if you're not the kind of person who doesn't like action books then don't get this, but on the other hand if you do like it then it's perfect for you. cYa!!!!

If you haven't read book one,please leave now.In this book,Naruto and the gang are assigned to a C class mission.But they don't know powerful ninjas are involve to take them down.Plenty of action in this one,a little disturbing,but overally cool.Thank you Shonen Jump!

This is great! Though I have to say it has blood,language,and usage of tobacco and alchloe. If children under 12 read this, it's obviously a good time to think throughly about it with your parents. I'm 10 and haven't done it yet , besides all of that, it's a amazing book.

Naruto returns in volume 2 "The Worst Client" . The story countinues with Naruto, Sasuske, Sakura, And my favorite character Kakashi! This round we will get more action and ninja moves and Kakashi will reveal a awesome techniuqe against the assasin Zabusa! This I believe is much better than the first one and will definatly give it a five! Also those who read the first one should definatly pick this one up!

Im not gonna describe the whole plot of this book, because anyone reading this is probably thinking of buying it themselves. This book is a really great book, but it kind of ruined it that I had already seen the series. Anyways, it arrived a day before it should, and in top shape. Naturally, you have to get book no1 first. The translation is great, but I wish amazon would sell the original raw japanese mangas.

When I was browsing the shelves at my local library one day, I came across both Volume 1 and Volume 2 of the Naruto manga. Since I already had some familiarity with the property from seeing some of the anime series, I checked out both of these volumes to see how it compared with the anime.

In the second volume, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke have passed their final test and become junior ninja. However, all they're given are very simple missions (such as babysitting, yard work, etc.) The team complain they want a mission that's a little harder. The Hokage ends up assinging their team to serve as bodyguards for a bridge-builder named Tazuna. It turns out Tazuna has omitted some details about his situation, and the mission becomes a higher ranked mission than the Hokage had realized it was. Naruto and his teammates find themselves face to face with some of the most lethal Mist Ninjas. Can Naruto and his teammates prevail?

What I enjoyed about reading this volume of the Naruto manga is the fact that the action sequences with the fighting flow at a natural pace. In comparison, the anime ended up dragging the fight sequences out by a ridiculos amount; the opponents would spend so much time talking in the anime that you found yourself thinking, "Just shut up and fight already!" Luckily, this is not the case with the manga. The manga was an enjoyable enough read, but this volume definitely focuses more on the action than on plot or character development. Luckily, I know from the anime that more character development is on the way in later volumes.

I wrote this review after checking out a copy of this manga volume through the King County Library System.

I appreciate Amazon for making this pruchase available to me because if it weren't for Amazon.com and the seller of this item I wouldn't have been able to purchase this item I couldn't find anywhere else for my sons birthday, and this book is very important to him even though it is considered used. Thank you to Amazon.com and the seller.
