"Naruto Vol. 3" continues the storyline from Vol. 2, with Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke and their teacher Kakashi defending the bridge-builder Tazuna from the assassination attempts of ninja-killer The Demon Zabuza and his companion, the beautiful but deadly Haku. After their brutal battle in Vol. 2, Kakashi sets the trio a stern task designed to strengthen their chakras and develop their ninja powers. Naruto, the weakest of the three, shows his strength of will as he struggles day and night to best Sasuke's accomplishments. This single-minded focus develop's Naruto's character as much as his chakras, as he slowly hardens and changes from the selfish blowhard of the first volumes. Along with this, he develops a relationship with a small boy from town, Inari, who learns what it means to be a hero. While this self-development is all good and well, the real story begins when Zabuza and Haku attack again, facing off against the stronger, re-grouped trio. However, the demon and his companion have been training as well, and Zabuza has learned the secret of Kakashi's "Sharingan Eye," and how to defeat it. Haku has secrets of his own, and Naruto and Sasuke are powerless against him. Vol. 3 is a change in tone for the series, a maturing if you will, as the young ninjas come face to face with their own mortality, and that the life of a ninja goes hand in hand with death. Even with the death of their own companions, as they are forced to discover.

My brother introduced me to Naruto, and at first it seemed to be just another silly action/adventure. But as I continued reading, I realized that the story is much like Naruto himself; it hid a gentle heart under a seemingly rough exterior. There are some basic themes to Naruto, and one of the more important ones is the strength of friendship and family. The concept of protecting those who are precious to you is introduced here, but will carry on throughout the series. True, I love the fights, but I enjoy it more because both sides have a reason to fight. And whichever side loses, they have lost something tangible. As annoying and incompetent Naruto can be, one can't help but cheer for him, because he doesn't give up. The chips are stacked against him, but he finds the courage to continue. There's a lot more I could say, but the characters (many of which haven't really been introduced at this point) are so interesting and each has so much back history, that I can't really do them justice. All I can do is recommend this series. The world of Naruto is complex, but operates within oddly logical confines. So, enjoy the story and let Naruto show you how to show some empathy and understand for even your adversaries.

Hey guys, listen up... I'm up to date on with the fansubs from japan, episode 87 of the 220+ mangas already produced and still in the making. The quality of Naruto exponentially rises throughout the entire series, and has the best character development of all time. so good that the viewers even get an understanding to each villain. There is soo much to discover in the mysterious world of shinobis, and it....left me smacking myself waiting for next weeks fansub. Its the hottest thing in japan right now, and soon the US. And make sure to get the Ps2 game, Naruto: Narutimate hero. It is the best fighting game, like smash bros. but new and unique, best of all bandai is making it (co. that releases the series, and most anime) so fans made it, meaning everything is correct to the series. My advice is ... GET EVERYTHING RELATED TO NARUTO, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.
