What is it about certain male characters that make fangirls squeal? Is it their stoicism? Their wispy hair? Maybe it's the fact that they're throw themselves in front of charging monsters. 2009-02-17

It's about time they changed the series' name to The Adventures of Naruto in Filler Land.
Volume 8 marks a return to the series' very essence: mysterious ghost stories with appealing characters and flawless visuals. With the elements coming together like that, what's not to like?
More murderous psychosis is in order as the first season's final story arc delves into the foundations of the series' basic premises. While it does resolve some plot elements, the ending gives more the impression of a subtotal than a final bill.

Yatterman (live action movie)
If Miike was out to recreate the parental discomfort of the TV series... well, mission accomplished. It's just too bad he also recreated the aspects that make cartoons like this Kryptonite to anybody who's gone through puberty.

Random Fun
Fans of “old school” anime are likely to greatly appreciate this OAV throwback tribute to '70s mecha and sentai anime. It is unlikely that newer fans will get much out of this volume, however.
