Naruto, Vol. 7: Orochimaru's Curse Paperback – August 2, 2005

Great Manga.

My 11 yr old loves Naruto. She collects these manga so she was excited to get this one.

Naruto, Vol. 7: Orochimaru's Curse sees Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura deep in the Forest of Death, where they must defend their scroll and capture the scroll of another team. But, there's a twist. Orochimaru, the snake monster/man with ties to Sasuke, has ulterior motives unknown to the test takers and the test masters. The trio survived their encounter with Orochimaru in Vol. 6, but that encounter has left Sasuke and Naruto in a coma. Now, Orochimaru, his minions, and the other test takers are after Sasuke.I like a lot of things about Naruto so far. For instance, Sakura and her rival from the village, Ino, are both blondes, but you can tell them apart because of a segment in Vol. 6 where, when they were friends, Ino convinced Sakura to wear her hair back despite Sakura's large forehead, which she hated. The introduction of Gaara and the other powerful junior ninjas from the Land of Sand in the end of Chapter 57 ups the ante. Naruto is arguably the least powerful character in the series, along with Sakura. I love how this series is progressing. ****1/2

Naruto is becoming a known manga/anime around the world very fast. And I've been watching the anime for a long while...Then I decided to read the manga as well. It's soo good! When you keep reading you can actually see the mangaka(the artist) developing his skills.Every Naruto fan should read the mangas as well! They are very high quality and so fun to read!No chapter is the same, always something new happens, you never feel like "yeah i've read the same storyline two chapters ago!!". Always a different challenge is thrown at our hero Naruto and his friends.It's not soo serious so you don't get bored, but it's not always funny that you find it cheezy. The drama, comedy and the action are very nicely balanced.A must read for all anime/manga fans!My only complain would be the official English translation has changed the special names for the jutsu (ninja magic) and used completely different names...Other than that, it's the best manga I've ever read.PS: the manga is still continueing, and its somewhere near "chapter 279", so it is going to be a lot of volumes!

Our 11 y/o is finally enjoying to read because of these books. I haven't the slightest clue as to what they are about, but he sure does and he loves them. No more fighting to get him to complete his 1 hour of mandatory reading/day. Often times, he can put the books down ( I am slowly buying him the monster collection of Naruto books that he has wanted.

I was already a fan of Naruto. now I decided to make a collection of the Mangas. The qualities of the book are awesome it's very well made, the shipping comes very well protected. I totally recommend not only the mangas but the story of naruto as well.

book came nice and clean

What up Amazon world it's a fellow consumer of manga and things, I'm not a harsh critic as long as the item isn't damaged or poisoned I'm fine with anything but if I were a collector and trying to replace any old manga with a fresh new one I wouldn't go for scratched covers like this one, luckily I'm a carefree type of guy and semi scratched covers are ehh not that big of deal just letting the average consume know that you may get a used book who knows ? That's the thrill of buying online I guess👀
