Naruto: Shippuuden

Synopsis: It's been two and a half years since Naruto Uzumaki left Konohagakure, the hidden village, for intense training following events that fueled his desire to be stronger. Now, Akatsuki, the mysterious organization of the elite Ninja, is closing in on their grand plan, which could threaten the safety of the entire Shinobi world.
Although Naruto is older and sinister events loom on the horizon, he has changed little in personality - even more indisputably childlike - though he is now much more confident and possesses an even greater determination to protect his friends and home. Come what may, Naruto will continue to fight for what's important to him, even at the expense of his own body, in the continuation of the saga about the boy who wants to become Hokage.
