Customer Reviews

Great Book for Reluctant Readers!!

My son enjoys reading all of the Naruto volumes. I will continue to purchase them, as long as it keeps him reading!! :)The graphics in this novel help keep his attention and focus on reading the book, instead of him refocusing on a more visually appealing idea. Great book for Naruto fans and reluctant readers alike!!

A High Point in the Series

Naruto 46 contains Naruto Chapters 423-432, that appeared in the monthly Shonen Jump #77-79 (5, 6, 7, May, June, July, 2009 volumes). Simply put it starts off at an extremely high point (the fight between Kakashi, Choza, and Choji versus Pain), and the other portions of the Pain Invasion into Konoha storyline. For this volume it continues with another double take on having one of the series most emotional events take place which I wont spoil. It makes the story even more riveting and begs us to beg VIZ to hurry up and release the next volume. The action is also on a high point in this volume in which we get to see several amazing techniques with the Sage Mode, Pain's amazing 'Almighty Push" and his "Summoning Jutsu", as well as the Rasengan and the Rasen-Shuriken. Ultimately, fans wishing for more action with Naruto are about to get their wish with the way in which this volumes ends leading to more fighting in the next one that will get even better and on a more epic level. Chapters: 423: Tendo's Ability 424: Determination 425: Hatake Kakashi! 426: Naruto & Konoha 427: Reunion 428: Discourse 429: Know Pain 430: Naruto Returns!! 431: Naruto's Magnificent Explosion 432: Return of the Rasen-Shuriken!! Essentially it is quite a few Naruto chapters, but, I always crave more Naruto! This is definitely one to get if you have been following the storyline, if you want to jump into it, I would suggest starting at Volume 45 before jumping into this one because it starts off in the middle of all of the action. Ultimately one should start at Volume 28, if they want the full "Naruto Shippuden Experience." Artwise it is excellent, an excellent English translation, ie, it actually sounds smooth. The only thing I cant get is the way in which they word the jutsu's (which differs from the show) and the "art of summoning" wording.
