My ten-year-old brother is a huge fan of Naruto. (he's even looking for a Naruto costume for halloween) I was thinking of surprising him by buying the Naruto OVA for him, but since it's an OVA I was wondering if the content might be worse than the TV series. Is the OVA any worse than the dubbed TV series?

The Naruto DVD's I've seen (checked out from library) are basically the same thing you see on TV, so it should be safe!

[color="Red"](Which one are you talking about? There's dozens of them, literally, though I'm not sure which ones have been released in the U.S. Are you talking about the Hidden Waterfall one? That was no worse than the series, so if he watches the TV Show he should be fine with that.)[/color]

Yeah, the Waterfall one is totally appropriate. So is the movie, arguably.

Thanks! Sorry, I forgot to mention that it is the Hidden Waterfall OVA. So, some of the other OVAs aren't appropriate? Now I'm curious.XD

[color="Red"](All of the one's I've seen are okay. That would be ~ Hidden Waterfall, the first three movies, Sports Festival, Search for the Red Clover, and that one that came with the PS2 game or something.)[/color]

I think the second movie (the castle one with Gaara in the movie) is worse in terms of death because Gaara uses his sand crushing technique. It probably also mentions a false god. You should probably watch it before letting your brother watch it.

[color="Red"](Only the second movie isn't even licensed yet. But regardless - he also uses it quite frequently in the show. The movies really aren't any different, aside from it being a movie instead of an episode.)[/color]
