 The Road Towards The EndAug 13, 2008
By Vicente Rodriguez Jr.
"Renegade Opinionist"
I have seen these episodes and I was extremely moved and shocked. Most of the characters face their demons and try to just survive. I was saddened at the thought of these beloved character facing certain death. The way they would risk their life's for a comrade that has gone missing. It felt very natural and realistic, my bond with these characters was growing increasingly over these life-changing episodes that featured many mature themes that I thought this series wouldn't dare show. The realization that life is so short, so unpredictable, so cruel, for these ninjas. This box set should be on every Naruto fans DVD collection. This volume will shock many and maybe haunt you. This isn't just a TV show it's a journey. If you have seen these episodes you know the contents aren't for the faint of heart. If you are an avid naruto fanatic this box set is a must for you. I own a few and let me tell you they are worth the money I paid and they are apart of my collection. So if you are a fan this box set is a steal for just thirty bucks don't wait another minute purchase this Box Set. Trust me this won't disappoint.

A Great SeriesJul 02, 2011
By Jennifer Atkinson
This is one of my favorite parts of the original Naruto series. It has all of the battles from the Sasuke retrieval arc in it, and these battles are definitely entertaining for any Naruto fan.

 Beginning of the final story arcAug 17, 2008
By Don Kangol

Volume 9 of the Uncut Box Set stays true to form. Everything from the previous box sets will be presented and displayed in pretty much the exact same ways containing 14 (mostly) filler free episodes over three discs in a 4x5x5 episode format. It contains a storyboard book that gives storyboard sketches for an episode of the show. Something similar can be seen in the extras on disc three, where they take eight scenes/pages from the storyboard booklet and play the animated scenes matching them.
The story for the disc essentially begins the Sasuke Retrieval arc of the story, the final arc before the manga took its hiatus and restarted several years later with Naruto Shippuuden. Sasuke is finally too frustrated with his progress in Konoha. And when tempted by Orochimaru's bodyguards agrees to leave and seek his tutelage.
The next day when this is discovered, the village leader, Tsunade commands Shikamaru, and whatever shinobi he can find, to go and retrieve Sasuke. He leaves with Naruto, Neji, Choji and Kiba and Akamaru. So begins a long chase scene, where the Leaf shinobi face off with Orochimaru's Sound Four one by one to get to Sasuke. While there is plenty of action, it is also tempered by the many flashback scenes. When the characters come near death, we end up seeing EVERY scene they've ever been in. And while it is somewhat understandable, seeing as this may be the last time these characters are seen alive, it is a bit too much.
Overall, I'd have to say that Viz did not drop the ball on this. Any complaints I have are with the show's presentation, not the story or package design. You get a lot of action packed drama filled episodes for a VERY good price. If you've enjoyed the show up to this point you are not going to be disappointed, and I highly recommend it.

"bryan 23"
In the Naruto Uncut box set 9, everything revolves around the retrieval of Sasuke. It is one of the most action packed seasons full of intense battles and is something i would recommend to anyone who watches anime.
