Overview

Demons that once almost destroyed the world, are revived by someone. To prevent the world from being destroyed, the demon has to be sealed and the only one who can do it is the shrine maiden Shion from the country of demons, who has two powers; one is sealing demons and the other is predicting the deaths of humans. This time Naruto’s mission is to guard Shion, but she predicts Naruto’s death. The only way to escape it, is to get away from Shion, which would leave her unguarded, then the demon, whose only goal is to kill Shion will do so, thus meaning the end of the world. Naruto decides to challenge this “prediction of death.”

Viewing Notes

via Netflix

The adventures of adolescent ninja Naruto Uzumaki continue in this fourth film outing as he’s tasked with protecting a priestess from a demon, but to do so he must die.  Watching this I’m remembering why I quit watching Naruto.  The film does have some interesting messages about defying fate, but the over the top of everything else kind of killed most of my interest in this.  Some of that might have to do with watching the dubbed version which I really didn’t like the voice actors for half the cast.  There are some really well done scenes and the fights work well, but overall I was underwhelmed.
