Fights that take off, jutsus that crack, and the Forest of Death to roam between two duels.

On few votes, so to be confirmed, but the profile already shows a clear split. Attachment climbs high, ahead of nearly three quarters of games, and the soundtrack follows right behind, like the fun you fire up for five minutes. The heart is there. But the game you would take to a desert island drops below average, and above all the art style sinks, ahead of only a quarter of titles. There is the tension: you bond with the characters, you love playing it, but the visuals do not leave a mark, and that is enough to cool the urge to make it a long-term companion.

Among licensed fighting games, it is the archetype: a faithful anime adaptation, carried by love for the series more than by visual prowess.

So, who is it for? For you if you know and love Naruto and want to see its characters in full action. Much less if the universe means nothing to you or if you judge first on art style.
