After the success of the original Naruto the Movie: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom, Cartoon Network has picked up and developed its English version.  It aired a few days ago on the channel's Action Flicks block, much to the delight of fans.  The second theatrical production, Naruto the Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel, had just premiered last July.  It became a pleasant surprise to see the third movie following closely in the footsteps of its predecessor. 

Last Tuesday, the DVD version of Naruto the Movie: Guardians of the Crescent Moon was shipped to North America as well.  The film continues the tale of the protagonist, Naruto, and his fellow ninjas, Kakashi, Sakura and Rock Lee.  Assigned to protect the Land of the Moon's prince, the group goes on a quest that will change their fate in the hands of royalty. 

Just in time for the holiday season, VIZ Media has set the DVD release date for Naruto the Movie 3: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom.  The third theatrical installment of Naruto sees a lighthearted adventure for the young shinobi and his friends as they are given a fairly easy mission: to guard Prince Michiru and his son Hikaru back to their home, the Land of the Moon.
