Naruto Soyokazeden Movie: Naruto to Mashin to Mitsu no Onegai Dattebayo!!

Esta review también está en español.

Naruto to Mashin to Mitsu no Onegai Dattebayo!! (wich means Naruto, the Genie, and 3 Wishes) is the special (not movie, like the info page says) that accompanies the fourth movie of Naruto Shippuden. This short is similar to Konoha's sports festival (but without the eschatological humor xD), the special that was in the first movie. So, don't take this thing too seriously.

Story: Konoha's rookie teams have a day off, and they decide to go to a picnic all together. While team 7 is eating, Naruto finds a strange bottle, which have a genie inside (no f*cking way!) that will grant three wishes to the person who ask them. Thanks to Naruto's idiocy, two wishes were wasted, so there's only one left... And that's the start for the battle in which all the Genins (except Chouji, he's too busy eating to be worried about something as trivial as the fulfillment of his dreams; and Hinata, who just stands there) will try to get the last wish.

Animation: Very good. Despite being a pre-shippuden story, with the younger characters, this was done in 2010, and we can see a slight improvement over the original series. The character designs is correct, though Ino has long hair, and Sakura has it short, so this special can't be placed chronologically in the series's continuity (a detail so stupid that I'm not even sure why I’m mentioning it xD). The jutsus are well done (especially the fire ones), the techniques are the pre Tsunade search ones.
The landscape is a semiparadisiac island/resort, that reminds a little the forest in the Chunin exam.

Sound: Nothing new here, the voices are good as usual. Good intonation, good presence, blablabla. There's virtually no music in this short, there's no opening and the ending last less than twenty seconds.

Verdict: Despite being relatively simple, this special fulfills its purpose quite well: it makes the viewer laugh for a while, with a relaxed and humorous story. This is highly, highly recommended for Naruto fans, and since it set in the classic stage, Shippuden is not needed to understand what's going on.

Naruto to Mashin to Mitsu no Onegai Dattebayo!! (que se traduce a algo así como Naruto, el genio y los tres deseos) es el especial (no película, como figura en la info de esta página) que acompaña a la cuarta película de Naruto Shippuden. Es un corto humorístico similar al festival deportivo de Konoha (pero sin el humor escatológico xD), que estaba en primera película de Naruto. No debe tomarse demasiado en serio.

Historia: Es un día libre para los cuatro equipos novatos de Konoha, y lo aprovechan celebrando un picnic todos juntos. Mientras el equipo 7 está comiendo, Naruto descubre una extraña botella, en la que adentro vive un genio (aunque no lo crean), que le concederá tres deseos al que se los pida. Por culpa de la estupidez de Naruto, dos deseos se desperdiciaron, y solo queda uno... es por esto que se desata una lucha en la que todos los Genin (excepto Chouji, que está muy ocupado comiendo como para preocuparse de algo tan trivial como el cumplimiento de sus sueños; y Hinata, que simplemente se queda parada) para conseguir el último deseo.

Animación: Muy buena. A pesar de ser un corto con los personajes pre-shippuden, esto fue hecho en el año 2010, y se notan leves mejorías con respecto a la serie original. El diseño de personajes es correcto, aunque Ino tiene el pelo largo, y Sakura corto, lo que hace que este especial no pueda ubicarse cronológicamente en la continuidad de la serie (detalle tan estúpido que ni siquiera sé porque lo estoy mencionando xD). Los jutsus usados están bien hechos (especialmente los de fuego), son los tradicionales que conocemos de antes de la saga de la búsqueda de Tsunade. En cuanto al paisaje, es la típica isla semi paradisíaca, con toques similares al bosque del examen Chunin.

Sonido: Nada nuevo por acá, las voces de Naruto cumplen igual que siempre. Buena entonación, buena presencia, blablabla. Prácticamente no hay música en todo el corte, no hay opening y el ending dura menos de veinte segundos.

Veredicto: A pesar de ser relativamente simple, este especial cumple su objetivo con creces: hacer que el espectador se ría un rato, con una historia relajada y cómica. Muy, muy recomendable para los fanáticos de Naruto, y como está ambientado en la etapa clásica, no hace falta haber visto Shippuden para entender. read more

I watched this special with horrible subs, but that's what made it awesome and hilarious. When Sasuke calls Naruto a loser, he says 'bunny swim' for some reason. It cracked me up. The story isn't that great, but it's still fun to watch and the end is really surprising. The reason I enjoyed it so much was probably the subs, otherwise it would have been a regular special. But it was really fun.

It's nice to have a little special in the original Naruto anime now and then. This one had a nice ring to it. I find the genie concept really humurous. This special is almost equivalent to the holy grail war from the Fate/Stay Night series only with Naruto characters. We see a little bit of character development behind the characters here (i.e. What they wish for). The subtitles were poorly edited but even if it had subtle subtitles, the results of this review would be the same. The results of this review: The special was phenomonal!
