Naruto

Previously on Naruto, Shino made a deal to trade the Bikouchuu for Hinata, but when Hinata got away, the deal became worthless.  The opponents decided to kill Naruto, Shino, and Kiba instead, but backed off when they saw Kyubi's eyes.  Eventually, Hinata stepped in to save the day.

This week, expect more action as Cartoon Network airs "Funeral March for the Living" and "A Lesson Learned: The Iron Fist of Love" on Saturday, March 29.

"Funeral March for the Living" starts off at what appears to be a rainy funeral service.  There are men dressed in black carrying a coffin to its burial site.  Later, the coffin shakes, implying that the man inside the coffin is not dead.  Nevertheless, he is buried alive.

Above ground, three men watch the funeral service and take this as an opportunity to escape the village.  Naruto saves the three guys but ends up being dragged in yet another mission.  He initially does not wish to partake in this particular mission, but changes his mind when he learns that it has something to with the leader of the Kurosuki Family, Raiga, being connected with the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.  Naruto with Neji, Lee, and Tenten as his allies, go on their new mission not knowing what awaits them.

The suspense continues in "A Lesson Learned: The Iron Fist of Love" where Naruto and the others ambush members of the Kurosuke Family and try to save Rourusuke, who was captured by hooded men as he was trying to dig out anyone who's still alive at a burial site.

Meanwhile, Naruto, Neji, Rock Lee, and Tenten are faced with a challenge that involves defeating an enemy that not even Neji's Byakugan can see.

Catch "Funeral March for the Living" and "A Lesson Learned: The Iron Fist of Love" on Saturday at 9pm on Cartoon Network.
