Naruto Shippuden Box Set 5   Starring (voice): Junko Takeuchi, Chie Nakamura and Noriaki Sugiyama Manga Entertainment RRP: £24.99 MANG5156 Certificate: 12 Available 16 May 2011

The fifth DVD box set follows Naruto, who is troubled by nightmares after his second failed attempt to bring Sasuke home. Kakashi, recovering in the hospital, suggests a new training regimen for Naruto that puts him in touch with his wind chakra nature.

This two-disc collection contains another 13 episodes (episodes 53-65) of this animated series which was first released in 2008. The episodes here include the last episode of season two as well as the first 12 episodes of season three.

Disc one contains the episodes Title; Nightmare; Wind; Writhe; Deprived of Eternal Sleep; Loneliness; and A New Enemy.

Disc two contains the episodes Impermanence; Contact; Teammate; The Two Kings; Jet Black Signal Fire; and Lockdown of Darkness.

This collection sees Naruto begin his training. Naruto soon learns that he can master the wind chakra. Naruto, Sakura, Sai and Yamato have a new mission that sees them on the trail of grave robbers. Naruto also discover that being the master of one chakra element isn't going to be enough when he comes up against someone who can control them all.

So, it's another collection of long-drawn out story lines, but Naruto fans who have stuck with it so far will love the attention to detail.
