Summary: Gatous men stop by Tazuna's home to take Tsunami hostage, but Inari and Naruto step in and save her. Meanwhile on the bridge Sasuke and Haku fight in a battle of speed. When Haku summons several ice mirrors around Sasuke and Kakashi can not help him or Zabuza will kill Tazuna and Sakura. Sakura ,however, leaves Tazuna's side to help Sasuke out but fails. Before Haku moves back into the ice mirrors, Naruto surprise attacks him.
Thoughts: That is one weird jutsu, and why is it called secret jutsu? Wouldn't it be a type of water jutsu? Interesting. Sakura did step up on this episode, which I like but it still wasn't much. Inari was the star of this episode tonight. He finally stepped up like his father would have wanted him to, and that makes me happy. He helped save his mother and he will never forget that.
End: On to Episode 14 :D

Naruto Volume 3 Chapters 18 - 27
Summary: Team 7 continues their training in the Land of Waves in order to protect Tazuna while he builds his bridge. Kakashi shows them how to control their chakra efficiently in order to help them in battle. We also meet Tazuna's grandson Inari who's father was killed by Gatous men, leaving the young boy bitter. Naruto is determined to prove to Inari that heroes do exist. Not long after the training is over.. Zabuza returns with Haku, the tracker ninja for round two. Sasuke and Naruto take on Haku but soon realize that he is out of their league with a Kekkai Genkai, a special bloodline jutsu, with a creation of demonic ice mirrors. In the mist of battle, Sasuke gains his Sharingan stopping Haku but at the cost of his own life to save Naruto. Naruto in his anguish becomes this demonic being. Outside the Ice Mirrors, Sakura and Kakashi deal with Zabuza, Zabuza has seen through Kakashi's Sharingan which causes Kakashi to switch tactics.
New Characters:
Inari: Tazuna's grandson, a bitter young boy who witnessed the cruelty of Gatou through his fathers death. He believes that all people who try to step up against him will die and he never fails to tell Naruto and friends that. But after his conversation with Kakashi he might have had a slight change of heart.
Haku: A young boy disguised as a tracker ninja working for Zabuza. Haku has a bloodline limit which allows him to use a special ice jutsu passed down from generation to generation of his family. Zabuza took him in when he was a young boy and he vowed to help Zabuza in anyway he could from that day on.
Thoughts: NOOOO SASUKE!! :'( That just crushed me like a bug, I hope Naruto kicks his ass! Naruto did have quite an eventful time in this book. Dealing with Inari and Focusing on his training. Hes growing better and I love it. I do find it unfortunate that Sasuke had to die right after he realized his birthright ability. I also find it sad that with Sakura's superiority with chakra control she still has yet to do anything for the team. It bothers me to no end. I am curious to see Kakashi's original ability. I wonder what it is and I can't wait to see how round two of this fight turns out. Another concern is that the seal on Naruto seems to be breaking. Is that good? or is it bad? Guess we will have to wait and see.
End: It has been posted a little later that I expected but I got it done before Thursday as promised. Now I am going to watch Episode 11 and post on that as soon as I can. Since it is the holidays I might not get it done by Thursday, if I can't then I will move on to reading Volume 4. Happy Thanksgiving Guys!

Naruto Season 1 Episode 10: The Forest of Chakra
Summary: After bringing Kakashi to Tazunas home, they look back at the battle with Zabuza and realize that he is still alive and that the tracker ninja was saving him. Since Kakashi won't be able to move well for awhile he decides to train our heroes to control their chakra by climbing trees with no hands. Sakura has got it just about down, while Naruto and Sasuke are still working on it. Meanwhile, Tazuna's grandson Inari is convinced that Gatou is going to kill us all and that heroes do not exist in this world.
New Characters:
Inari: Tazuna's grandson, Inari is a little boy with a negative thought process about those who oppose Gatou convinced that everyone will die.
Thoughts: Damn so Zabuza isn't dead after all, insanity I swear. Kakashi made a good call on trying to train Team 7 on chakra control but I do not see how it will help them in another fight against Zabuza. So far I am really impressed with Sakura. She actually has a useful skill, now if only she can apply it. Its is kind of amusing to see her ahead of Naruto and Sasuke at something. The event with Gatou and that tracker ninja is kind of interesting though. It is a sign of what is to come.
End: I think I am going to start reading volume 3 of the book now. :)

Right before Kakashi can make the finishing blow, a tracker ninja from the village hidden in the mist takes him out and takes the body.

Thoughts: I love Kakashi, he is amazing. I love how wise he can be, and he is a great teacher for Naruto. You can also see that Naruto has a long way to go mentally after his harsh reality with the tracker ninja. I would like to see some growth with Sakura however. She didn't really do much.

Thoughts: Kakashi was pretty harsh towards our heroes but he was right in every aspect. People die in this line of work and teamwork is required to get out of some missions alive. The fact that they realized they're mistake and learned from it gives me hope that they can make it in this world. I wonder whats next for them.

Sakura is kinda the annoying fangirl along with Ino and it kind of bugs me. But this is also my first impression here so who knows what could happen here.

The bridge builder , Tazuna, fails to mention that a rich crime boss named Gatou wants him dead. Kakashi takes out the first two assassins but considers turning back due to the severity the mission has now become until Naruto stops him. They make it to the Land of Waves but are then stopped by rouge ninja Zabuza Momochi. Zabuza trapped Kakashi but Naruto and Sasuke used teamwork to free Kakashi. Just as Kakashi was about to finish the job, a hunter ninja (Black Op) from the Mist Village takes him out and takes the body away. Team 7 then makes it to Tazuna's home to let Kakashi rest after his battle.

Gatou: Rich crime boss in the land of waves who is threatened by the construction of the new bridge and hired Zabuza to kill the bridge builder before the bridge is finished.
Thoughts: I feel for Tazuna here, he wants to do right thing even though his life is threatened by it. Much respect here. And the fight with Zabuza was intense the teamwork between Sasuke and Naruto was amazing, I understand that Sakura stayed back to protect Tazuna but I felt like she could have done more. I am more curious about this Anbu Black Op that is working for Zabuza, she kinda looks like a kid. I hope our heroes finish their training before we see Zabuza again.

Kakashi Hatake: The head of team 7, not much is known about Kakashi other than that he has the power to send team 7 back to the academy.
Thoughts: Naruto is very obnoxious but he works hard for what he wants and I respect that. He has taken the first step required in order to get his goal. He has a very interesting team to help him on his journey. I am curious about Sasuke, the dark man with a mysterious past. Makes me wonder who he wants to kill. I find Sakura annoying but this is based off a first impression. Kakashi is a strange character but maybe there is wisdom behind the mask thats what Im hoping for.
End: Here is the first book of many. As promised I will crank through some of Season 1 of the show before I start reading Volume 2 on Thursday.

Alright so here is the game plan.
I am going to read one manga volume a week. That is my goal, and during that week I will watch the anime episodes leading up to the end of that volume or get as many as I can out of the way before reading the next volume. I have decided to start with Naruto because it is one of the most well known Animes and Manga out there. So I will get back to you as soon as I finish reading Volume 1 :D
