Naruto (3-in-1 Edition), Vol. 2: Includes Vols. 4, 5 & 6 by Masashi Kishimoto
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Volume 4:
Starting off with Chapter 28: Nine Tails!!
Thrown into the middle of the battle of Naruto vs. Haku. At the end of the last volume we are assaulted with the semi-death of Sasuke. This brings on an emergence of the Demon fox. Unknown to Naruto's generation is that the Nine Tails is sealed into Naruto. This trauma sends Naruto over the edge to fight Haku on a serious scale.
Meanwhile Kakashi battles it out with Headhunter Zabuza of the Mist. This is a brilliant battle, and still to this day I stare with amazement.
I hope that you enjoy the manga that had me hooked from the beginning.
Cheers and Happy Reading!

Volume 5:
We start this volume with Chapter 37: The Worst Match-up..!!
In the last chapter rookie 9 has been entered into the Chuunin Exams. Starting off on in this chapter Team 7 meet Rock, Lee. Who is a member of team Guy. Lee challenges Sasuke out of unrequited affection for Sakura.
My favorite scene in a good majority of this manga is when Sasuke gets his ass handed to him by a secondary character. I don't know where the effing appeal of Sasuke comes from. I hate everything about him, and I don't know why the Sandaime didn't have him in an insane ward after the obliteration of his family. Sakura and any chick who fangirls over him have absolutely no self respect. You effing sheep!
Okay with my rant over, I will now continue with the review. After Lee is reprimanded by Guy-sensei, Team 7 make their way to the examination room. Turns out we meet a good majority of the cast of characters in this middle chapter. I enjoyed this greatly. To find out how they overcome some of the scariest ninjas in the settings world; you'll have to read for yourself.
Cheers and Happy Reading!

Volume 6:
This volume starts off with Chapter 46: The Codeword Is...?!
The Forest of Death, teams are scattered about. Very soon we discover the many dangers. Team against team to reach the Central Tower. Kakashi's Team 7 are pitted against a team from the village hidden in the Rain. After being fooled by a transformation jutsu, Sasuke comes up with a long winded pass code, they fend off the team. They are ambushed yet again. This time by a more deadly enemy. Come and meet the big bad of the series.
Cheers and Happy Readings!
