Book Review: Naruto is one foxy dude!
Summary: 4 Stars
"Naruto," while not an all-time favorite, is a great, funny manga series that everyone should give a read. It is a wacky Ninja tale, complete with magic nine-tailed foxes and secret ninja techniques. Anyone looking for even a grain of historical accuracy should look elsewhere, as "Naruto" is just about the hijinks. Definitely nothing subtle here, just "pie-in-the-face" style of humor and laughs.This first volume, "The Tests of the Ninja," lays the groundwork, including Naruto's origin and the cast of supporting characters. While stereotypes abound, each is interesting enough and offers some unique drama.
The art is nice, although not groundbreaking, and suits the funky story. Viz's decision to run the book in the correct way, right to left, is really appreciated as the artwork can be original an un-flipped as it is in most English-translated manga series.
One note: as someone who has read both the Japanese version and the English, the translation is excellent. No worries there.

Wow! Naruto is here in the U.S!! I would recommend Naruto to everyone! At first i didn't take naruto very serious, hearing thats it's a shounen anime/manga (meaning it mainly captures male viewers/readers), but once i gave it a chance, i fell in love!
Naruto is truly a great series, one of the best in fact. Both the anime and Manga are simply too great! The anime follows the manga so much, your actually reading the manga as u watch the anime. Although the manga is way ahead of the anime, i still watch it. I can watch and read naruto so many times and it will never bore me.
I'm usually the type of person who likes to read mangas that have good plots. Not some long running plot that won't go anywhere for the longest time. Naruto; however, is long but the story keeps getting better. Thats the glory of it! :D
So what are you waiting for?! go buy/watch/read Naruto! Do anything as long as u get naruto in ur system!
oh by the way, i agree with nathan, if Masashi kishimoto approved the translation, it's ok with me! i actually think it's not that bad. :)
Book Review: Naruto rocks!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best anime out there right now. #1 in japan. I have all 19 volumes of the manga in japanese. They are soo much cooler even though it's hard to read japanese if it's not your native language. By the way you can read all 197 chapters of naruto comics at narutochuushin.com which is a great site. If you haven't seen the anime version then you gotta go see it. It's way cooler. Just go to one of those anime dvd sites. This manga has everything. humor, adventure, love story, action, personality character development, etc.. It's mainly about ninjas in training and you get to see their process as they improve their skills and grow up.Book Review: Naruto rules, dudes!!!
