 - Excellent DVD! Funny - lots of action - a must have DVD collection! Rating:  - Foxy!!!I didn't get into Nartuo until I subscribed to Shonen Jump on a whim. And I've got to tell you how gripping the story is about an orphan named Naruto, who has this extraordinary goal of becoming Hokage (the #1 Ninja in the world)! Despite his lack of talent, his hidden abilities and his drive to succeed make his goal that much more real, with each encounter he has either with his squadmates or other characters. The anime is pretty good, however, at times, the episodes seem to slow down considerably, especially with Episode 2. However, the action and story picks up the pace as Naruto and his squadmates encounter other dangers later on in the series. This is one series that I actually have no clear-cut preference of whether I'd rather hear it dubbed or subbed. (They're equally good and bad). One thing that I do find annoying is the fact that each episode recaps the previous episode. Instead, they should cut that out and add 1 or 2 extra minutes of the story to the episode that I'm currently watching. Overall, this product is a great buy! Can't wait for the Volume 2 set which is said to be released early December 2006! Rating: - Believe it!The uncut version of the anime is much better than what is aired on TV. Though there are still some diferences between the Japanese version and what is in the uncut version. I wouldn't recomend the special edition unless you are a hard core Naruto fan. The bonus items that come with it are mainly geared toward younger viewers and not much towards adult viewrs, Rating: - Unpretentious fun!The great thing about the Naruto series is it has an involved, ongoing storyline without taking itself too seriously. The episodes are well translated and the actors well chosen. It has some suspense and alot of comedy and for older children it has a nice message of never giving up on your dreams. My small gripes are that for some reason Naruto has the catch phrase of "Believe it!", and it gets dropped into places that it doesn't make any sense, but it's a small problem. Also the extras you get are really fun and high quality. This is a great package for the hardcore fan and newcomer alike! Rating: - Words are not enoughOn how much I enjoyed it can not be expressed with words, except that I can't wait til' the next one
