Anime Talk: Naruto and Desert Punk
This week's
Anime Talk has an early look at a new release:
Naruto.
This story of a young boy training to be a ninja is extremely popular in Japan,
and the manga on which it's based has sold millions of copies. Viz is releasing
the first volume later this month, and it looks like a promising series. Also this
week we have capsule
reviews of FUNimation's latest series, the twisted Desert
Punk which has just the right amount of humor, violence, and sexual
innuendo. Other recent releases of note include Fighting
Spirit, Jubie Chan
2, and the final volume of Burst
Angel. Be sure to check out all of our anime
reviews as well as Holly's Anime
Bargains and our indispensable
