Naruto (Manga)

The story is just for some reason alot better in Manga, I dont know why but it just is...The art is just...mindblowing because you ca see every tiny last detail! The characters are...or do get very annoying and its always the same thing like mutants or something. the enjoyment is great and you never want to let go of the book you always say "One last page!" then "One more page!" You never want to stop! So overall I give this a 10 because its just an amazing Manga to read.

REAL REVIEW
Story: The story is AMAZING. This is not a simple story. It does not just contain just a single element. The substance of this story is made of so much. Their is alot of Action, some Romance, lots of comedy, and so many others. The story is just an amazing work. This has to be one of the greatest stories of all time. Ever.
Their is so many stories branched out everywhere coming from so many characters. Also many of those stories link together, and create one amazing sensation when they intersect. What I love about it is that Naruto is not just about Naruto. Many of the characters have their moments in this manga. Also because this story is about ninja their is alot of secrecy, and secret plots, or decieving plots, and alot of suprises, and their are alot of introductions to new missions.

What the story is about. It is about a boy named Naruto who grows up in a ninja world, and is shunned by everyone surrounding him. Through his presseverence, and raw determination of obtaining his dream of becoming Hokage (The leader of his village), he begins to obtain the loyalties and friendships of many ninja. The proccess of Naruto growing up is not an easy task. In himself he contains a demon that was sealed into him by the previous Hokage in order to save the village. He encounters many villians, and many obstacles he must overcome, in the universe of ninja.

Art: The art is AMAZING. The art concepts in them selves are phenominal. The character design is second to none. The backrounds are contain so many different enviroments, and are masterfully done. Also the transitions are so fluid. Their is not a single moment where I had to re-look at a page to understand what is going on.

Character: The Characters are AMAZING. The amount of characters in this manga is amazing. Their are so many. And the similarities, and differences between them are so distinct. This manga contains so many personalities. It also has to what I believe the some of the best interpritations of what heros, villians, good guys, clutzes, strong women, and so many others should be. Here is a list of what they are.

Ultimate Hero: Naruto
Ultimate Bad Ass: Sasuke
Ultimate Villian: Ma?a?a
Ultimate Cool Guy: Kakashi
Ultimate Legend: Yondy
Ultimate Character Ever: Itachi
and Their are so many other ultimate characters that I left out, like Shikamaru, Jiriaya, Zabuza. The characters are just amazing
I can explain so much on how awsome each charater is made to be, and give so much detials on them, and yet be unable to answer so many questions.

This manga contains so many awsome and new inventive elements in it that diversefy it so much from other mangas, stories, anything. And it also contians other many great elements from other mangas, and stories, and everything. To me this has to be in the top 5 Ultimate Manga. One of the greatest ever.

Naruto is the best manga i have ever read. The storyline and art are both amazing! Its very different from any other manga and its definitely a manga that you can't put down.

What got me hooked on to it is how traditional looking it is. In Naruto's world, everything is so surprising! Not only does it have groundbreaking action, but also comic relief from all the stress that either the characters already have or has built on them. So I think that giving Naruto a try will be worth it! :)

Naruto is currently the most popular shounen beast in the manga market. And since I have verbally abused its companions (Bleach and One Piece), I believe its Naruto's turn to be reviwed.

Story: I'm not going to pretend that anybody reading this review doesn't already know the basic story of Naruto so no summary this time. The length is a turn off. Some of the fights tend to drag on a little bit further then what seems realalistic. I call this the Bleach effect. While the fights in Naruto don't drag on nearly as long as the Bleach fights, they do show the symptoms.

The plot is extremely standard with a fair amount of plot twists thrown in here and there. It just barely crawls out of mediocrety. It gets a maybe not so deserving 6.

Art: It has the same quality of art as One Piece without the absurdly stupid looking designs. Backgrounds exist in Naruto so its mountains better than Bleach's sorry excuse for art. There is a large amount of detail put into almost every aspect of every panel. it truely is something to marvel at, at times. Although i have caught a few absolutely terrible backgrounds thrown in there. I mean a 4 year old could litteraly draw them. Heck the mangaka of Bleach could probably draw them...nah, thats unfair to the 4 year olds. But there have only been one or two random terrible backgrounds, and overall the art is simply great. It gets a 9.

Characters: To start off there are about fifty of them, maybe more. They all have names, faces, most have a back story (tenten?), and they're all uniquely drawn. I do hate a large amount of the characters, and characters would recieve a fairly low grade if it wasn't for Shikimaru. He is like a genious gem in a sea of stupid coal. I have also found out, that Tenten has become one of my favorite characters.

Why? you ask. Well, she is so obviously hated by the mangaka. She fought two times. In her first fight she got knocked unconcious before she could even touch her opponent. And her second fight was a draw...because she was fighting a clone of herself. She is halariously left out of every major event that ever happens. Hell, its possible she could have been dead for the past 100 chapters, and the other characters didn't even notice. She contributes nothing to the characters, but i just thought i would mention her because it entertains me.

*cough* Back on track. Shikimaru alone, saves the characters from getting a failing grade. Shikimaru puts the characters on his back and wins them an 8. Good job Shikimaru. Now go teach Tenten how to make cookies. Maybe then she will be usefull.

Enjoyment: Aside from the enjoyment i get from mocking Tenten, the fights are actually pretty well done...most of the time. Recently they've begun to show signs of the Bleach effect. The first half was all solid fight scenes all the time. But I think when Shippuuden started Bleach became contagious, and Naruto caught some of the bad. It's a good thing Shikimaru has some really good fight scenes (Zombie v Shikimaru = smile), and once again he saves the enjoyment from getting a lower score then it would have without him. So for enjoyment i give Shikimaru a 9. You can give that to your friends Shikimaru.

Overall: A meh story, great art, bad charact-SHIKIMARU, and Decent enjo-SHIKIMARU!!!, gives Naruto an okay 6...but Shikimaru alone boots the manga to an 8! woah. First time i've ever done that. If this manga was called Shikimaru, and was focused on Shikimaru all the time, it would probably be even higher, but sadly Naruto is the main character in Naruto so its an 8.

*bites cookie* GAH! GO TO HELL TENTEN, YOU BURNT MY COOKIES!!! read more

Lot's of people have already done a review on naruto, and i have noticed that more than half of them said it's bad! In my point of view naruto has an amazing plot, great characters and it's very well drawn! It's one of the manga's that you will never expect what would happen next! Everyone in the series is there for a reason (exception:tenten) and you'll find out in the middle of the series how the characters have these strong relations to each other! In the begining the story moves quite slow but after a few chapters you won't be able to stop reading!!! You can not live your life without reading naruto! even people who don't like it keep reading it! if you like anime and manga it is a MUST!
I advise you to read the manga because i find that the anime has too many episodes which have nothing to with the series.. *If you don't like long mangas i mean longuer than 100 chapters then this is not the manga for you >. read more

It's amazing. Not only because it's popular and all, but also 'cause it's got this sense of brotherhood which is so touching.

Naruto Manga is long manga and follows the life of a ninja. Not like other series where the story is focused on goal like finding a stone for example. So if dont plan on reading something long dont bother with Naruto.
But its the long story wich makes it intresting and special.

Naruto is currently divided into 2 parts Part 1 and Part 2.

Part 1 is the beginging. It feels like it is just a ground for part 2.
You get introduced to all the characher and certin events happen and charachers devolep. When part 1 has ended you pretty much know backgrounds for the entire new generation. (The new ninjas like Naruto)

Part2 is When they are older like 15/16.
Very much charachter development and you get to know more things and some sick plot twists. Currently it feels like it will be part 3.

Thats just a very short summary realley. The art is amazing and manga at part 2 is the best manga i have read.
Death, Misery and happines are some of many elements that make Naruto manga awsome. If youre looking for a long serie with high quality, you want to read Naruto. read more
