Product Description

Naruto is a ninja-in-training with a need for attention, a knack for mischief, and sealed within him, a strange, formidable power. His antics amuse his instructor Kakashi and irritate his teammates, intense Sasuki and witty Sakura, but Naruto is serious about becoming the greatest ninja in the village of Konohagakure! There comes a time in every ninja's training when he must put aside his morals and face the truth: ninjas are tools for killing. For Naruto, seeing Sasuke dead, that time is now. Rage awakens the nine-tailed fox spirit within Naruto, giving him the strength to overcome Haku - but can he bring himself to finish the job? As the battle for the Land of the Waves comes to a tragic ending, our heroes return to the village of Konohagakure in time for the chunin (journeyman ninja) exams. But junior ninjas from around the world have gathered to take the exam, bringing their own strange ninjutsu and mysterious goals.

Customer Reviews

Action packed epic!
Naruto volume 4 starts with an incredible fight from the first page! This book is packed with action from the start to finish as are heroes face off against Zabuza and Haku for the last time. This is the best fight so far in the series and can not be missed by any Naruto fan! After the fight the story starts to slow down a little but brings back the great humour from the 1st book when the characters meet a load of new rivals. For those fans of action packed manga this is a great buy as it will keep you reading right up to the end, you wont want to put it down!

One adventure ends and another begins
This fourth volume of the Naruto manga is mostly taken up with the conclusion of the mission to the Land of Waves. Once this adventure has been finished the members of Team 7 return home only to face new challenges in the form of the Chunin Exam.

The conclusion of the fight between Team 7 and Zabuza and Haku does present some of the best action of the series so far. The ending of this arc is slightly corny but this is more than made up for with some surprisingly emotional scenes as well. The Chunin Exam storyline has little in the way of action in this volume but it does introduce some new players to the series quite well and sets things up nicely for the next volume.

Overall the Naruto manga continues to be funny and interesting, with some good action in places and an involving storyline.
