The Last: Naruto the Movie

For someone like me, who quit watching Naruto last November, when I finished the last chapter of the manga, seemed this movie like a cool thing to add some extra plot to fill the gap between the last two chapters of the manga. I also finished watching the Naruto: Shippuden anime series somewhere around the three-hundredth episode mark because I was not into the crazy fillers anymore. I found this movie’s narrative not particularly groundbreaking. It is more of a heavyweight love story, so it will probably appeal more to women and fans of the two main protagonists. But if you are a fan of the anime series, this is probably a must-see. However, be warned; if you are still struggling with the anime series and have not read the manga and therefore have no idea how it will end or who Naruto will end up with, then definitely do not watch this yet.

When I started watching it, I realized that I had actually never seen a single episode of the anime or any movie. I only know Naruto through the manga, which gradually earned a good position with me and I like this manga. The movie surprised me with its excellent romantic and action aspects, which I did not expect in the case of Naruto. Even as a non-fan of this anime, I enjoyed it. (2015.11.14)
