 Don't get the UrgeJun 29, 2007
By Cpt Roland Jarvis
As a new viewer to naturo I purchased all three uncut english version sets with the idea of watching them over time. Bad move. I watched the entire three sets in two days. I would have watched them in one day but work got in the way. We all know this is one of the most outstanding Anime series and the question of "in original language" or English dubbed is an interesting one. "The Urge" commented in his review that things where missing and not the same between the two versions. Not having seen the Japanese original language version he could be right; however, the examples he gave about the "sexy-Jutsu" and Sauske/naruto being edited out was untrue. It's all there. The rest, well I don't know. I'm hoping the term "uncut" means it is as close to the original as possible in a language change. That would be true if in subtitles or dubbed. Bottom line is it's a great series in English and if it's better in Japanese so be it. There are a lot of Animes out there and most certainly are not that good. So when one comes along that is terrific, such as Naruto, enjoy it in whatever language you can enjoy the most.
Better Believe It.

It keeps getting betterJun 07, 2007
By Kyle Phillips
As an owner of the previous three volumes, i have come to realize that Naruto keeps getting better as the episodes go on. Think about it, the first volume just showed them struggle as pathetic ninja. The second volume shows them mature a little enough to survive their first mission and the first part of the chunin exam. And now the third volume shows them grow huge bounds as each character grows greatly from the first episode. and it is only going to get better as the four volume features the ten fights of the preliminary round of the third part of the chunin exams. Most of the fights are intriguing, especially the one between rock lee and that wierd ude with the sand thing on his back. This volume looks to be the best yet, and it will only get better. My only wish is that they would release these uncut volumes faster because this show is very addicting.

The entire Naruto series thus far.Jul 14, 2007
By Emeraldfire
If you're undecided on purchasing this box set, then let me help. I have seen 239 episodes of Naruto so far, and the series is worth it(aside from some embarrasing filler episodes, but let's not go there.) The story only gets better as the episodes go by. The only thing I want to add is this; since there are already 15+ box sets worth of episodes, you might want to wait for the price to drop a bit, unless you're loaded or pure-blood otaku.

BELIEVE IT!!!Sep 20, 2007
By Anime Addict-Go Naruto!

This is an absolutely wonderful series. You'll love it. Boxed set 4 picks up right where 3 left off. The cases always have great pictures on them, this one's no exception. My favorite is the one on the back that has Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura on it together.

---Disc 3 also has the special features---
-Shonen Jump Home Video
-English Credits
-Volume 5 Sneak Preview (;-) I love the sneak previews)
-From Sketch to Screen: Storyboard Comparison on Episode 40
-Production Art
As with the other boxed sets you can watch in Japanese with english subtitles-if you're one of them purists who wants to see it that way-, or you can watch it in english, and you can still have the english subtitles if you want-up to you. I like to put the subtitles on during the opening and closing theme songs so I can see what the words to the songs are-good songs-.
This entire boxed set covers the preliminary rounds, until the last episode and a half, where the rounds are over and you find out what everyone has to do for the final round of the Chunin Exam. You learn a lot about all the different talents of the ninja-it's great.
Starts off finishing Sasuke's match versus the one guy from Kabuto's group-who is actually a sound ninja spy for Orochimaru-,
then you have
-Shino(one of the rookies) vs. Zaku-from the Sound village,
-Sakura vs. Ino (Hopefully you know who both of them are :~/ )
-Tarmari (female sand ninja) vs. Ten-Ten (female from Rock Lee and Nenji's group)
-Shikamaru (rookie) vs. Kein(female sound ninja)
-Kiba vs. Naruto -smiley face-
-Hinata Hyuga vs. Nenji Hyuga (they're cousins)
-Gaara of the Desert(you have to know who he is by now) vs. Rock Lee (This is a wonderful fight!!!)
-Choji vs. the other sound ninja guy, can't remember his name, the guy who hits you with sound waves from the thing on his arm.
I won't tell you who wins them all, you'll just have to watch and find out. It's good though, you'll be on h edge of your seat every battle.
So far there is an average of 13 episodes per boxed set. Not too bad, but seeing as there are 250 episodes released in Japan already-or some number near that- try to buy it on sale. I've said this in other reviews too. BUY THEM ON SALE!!! unless you're rich and it doesn't matter, and if you are picture someone sticking there tongue out at you because they're annoyed---it's me---. I pre-ordered box 5 while it was 15 dollars off or so over labor day weekend. Try doing something like that.

Some of the best animated action ever made...Jan 03, 2008
By B. S. Windon
"Better Than You"
Forget DBZ... THIS right here is some of the best animated action ever made. Volume 4 really kicks the action up a notch, and gives fans a REAL chance to fall in love with other characters. Volume 4 takes the route of holding a tournement between the young shinobi, and what a tournement it is. Meshing action, humour and intense drama into one perfect ball, this box set is not one to be missed by Naruto fans.
Containing, easily, the best fight of the series so far in Rock Lee VS Gaara of the Sand... I guarantee you, action fans, you're gonna love this. Rock Lee comes out and in the span of 4 episodes becomes one of everyone's favourite characters. Forget Rocky, Rock Lee is the greatest underdog you'll ever watch.
Two Thumbs up!
