Tired of the same old menial tasks, Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura ask for a mission with some real excitement. Amused by Naruto's hyperactive initiative, the Hokage gives them - along with their sensei, Kakashi--the simple task of escorting Tazuna, a bridge builder, to the Land of Waves. But these young ninja get more than they bargained for when they are attacked by ninja, including the infamous Zabuza Momochi!

Includes 4 Episodes:

Episode 5 You Failed! Kakashi’s Final Decision

Episode 6: A Dangerous Mission! Journey to the Land of Waves!

Episode 7: The Assassin of the Mist

Episode 8: The Oath of Pain


As the popular fantasy-adventure Naruto continues, the title character, Sosuke, and Sakura pass the grueling final exam given by Kakashi-sensei... barely. Kakashi stresses the importance of teamwork, but his novices have a lot to learn. Sakura's crush on Sosuke motivates all her action; icy perfectionist Sosuke dreams of restoring his clan's position; Naruto remains a rambunctious, ambitious big mouth. Most of the disc is devoted to the trio's first professional mission. Acting as bodyguards to master bridge-builder Tazuna seems harmless enough, and Kakashi plans to use the trip to continue their instruction. But a deadly foe is after them: Zabuza Momochi, the renegade assassin from the Village in the Mist. Director Hayato Date packs the episodes with plenty of duels and battles, although the animation is very limited. The choppy cutting and lack of a Japanese track suggest the series has been heavily edited. (Unrated, suitable for ages 10 and older: violence, alcohol use, brief nudity) --Charles Solomon
