Several years ago, the Village Hidden in the Leaves was assaulted by a fearsome threat. A nine-tailed fox spirit took the lives of many people, including the village leader and the Hokage. Today, the village is peaceful, and a troublesome kid named Naruto is attempting to graduate from Ninja Academy. Although his goal is to become Hokage, his true destiny is much more complex. It's time for the adventure to begin!

The rating I gave here is quite generous.

Although the first chapter was interesting, it was slightly choppy, while the third chapter, with Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke in ninja school, was simply dull. I had a hard time getting past Naruto's repetitive immaturity and inflated ego. Yes, wow, you have a specialty in doppelgängers, but you always act before you think, which is foolish. COME ON.

I'm going to keep reading the series because I know it gets better. …
