This week’s manga finally concludes Sasuke & team’s fight against the eight tails, as well as continues Naruto’s training! I’m also happy to say that this will be the first chapter on the site for the mangas release! YAY!
LOOK INTO MY EYES
Good evening to you all, welcome to another week of Naruto Shippuuden! This week’s episode brings us to sweet, sweet delightful canon. We even have a sightly different opening now (which i’ll be uploading to pootube soon). Anyway, we already have one download up, and i’m uploading another, and hopefullly Psytrin will pull through for a 2nd mirror on Megaupload. Just keep coming back, and we’ll have more mirrors shortly.
UPDATE: Second download up now!
WARNING: THIS EPISODE CONTAINS MORE SAKURA WHINING
Thanks to XD’s new handy manga gallery, we now have the ability the host several chapters of manga online to read directly on the site. We will be starting with manga chapter 317, since this is the first chapter where the anime left off last week. Of course, when certain chapters are adapted into the anime, they will be removed from the site, though if you do read it, you will notice that the anime goes through a sightly different direction than the manga, and you may see some things you’ve already seen in the anime, and some things you’ve never seen, so just keep reading on.
So if you have been a anime only Naruto fan now, and are desperate to see what happens in the future of Naruto, start reading the manga HERE.
Enjoy. =)

Anime Box Sets: My rant about how bullshit expensive box sets can be.
For several years now, we have been enjoying anime on Toonami, VHS tapes, laser discs, DVDs, Blu-Rays, downloadables, subs, dubs, shitty Chinese subs, etc. But when a American company gets the rights to the anime, and finishes it (or a big chunk of it) they tend to release a large box set of the episodes or the whole series. Let’s see how the prices have gone over the years.
We shall only be going through DVD box sets, since VHS and everything below are now garbage. We’ll be going by the big companies that distribute and sell anime to the American market these days:
Funimation
Viz Media
Bandai Entertainment
Funimation
Funimation has been around for quite a while now, Funimation is best known for its Dragonball Z property in the states since its supposely “teh best anime evar”, which it obviously isn’t (though its still great). Funimation is honestly a very good company, besides DBZ, there dubs tend to be very well done and decently priced. We shall be going by some of their latest box sets within the past few months/years.
1. Dragonball Z Season Box sets
Contains:
(About) 26 episodes per set
Digitally Remastered (with cropped wide screen o.O)
Cheap and affordable
Uncut, dual languages, English subtitles
Different audio tracks allowing you to watch dub w/ redone music, dub w/ original music, or sub/ with original music
Great price
Average retail price: $49.99
Average cheapass price: About $30.
2. Yu Yu Hakusho Season Box Sets
Contains:
(About) 26-28 episodes per set
Cheap and affordable
Uncut, dual language, English subtitles
Great price
Average retail price: $34.99
Average cheapass price: $20.99
Funimation knows how to do a cheap box set right. Containing entire seasons within a small box (without full size DVD cases, and pointless “extras”) show that Funimation are aiming more for the fans than they are for cash. Although, its bullshit how they are releasing the popular anime One Piece in 13 episode box sets, they still remain cheap and still the best on my list.
Viz Media
Viz has been around on the manga scene for a long time now, but since dubbing Naruto, they have been making the big bucks. Along with other popular Shonen properties such as Bleach and Death Note, Viz isn’t leaving any time soon.
1. Naruto Box Set 1
Contains:
13 uncut episodes
Uncut, dual languages, English subtitles
Decently priced
Average retail price: $49.99
Average cheapass price: $24.99
2. Bleach Box Set 1
Contains:
20 uncut episodes
Uncut, dual languages, English subtitles
Decently priced
Average retail price: $49.99
Average cheapass price: $29.99
There’s a few reasons why I hate Viz and there box sets. 1. They overprice everything, and also release a super expensive edition that includes something like a figure. 2. The box sets contain half or less than the average 26 episode box set, and its priced like one, its terrible. 3. Why Viz makes a special edition (to a already overpriced box set) thats only special because of a figure and not actual extras is beyond me. Hopefully in the near future, Viz will take after Funimation, until then, I’m sure most Naruto/Bleach/Death Note fans will likely download the series more than buy it.
Bandai Entertainment
Bandai has been selling box sets for quite a while now, I remember when they sold wildly expensive box sets for $200 for Cowboy Bebop. Nowadays, Bandai has gone down the same road as Funimation and now sells there anime for much cheaper until the “Anime Legends” label.
1. Cowboy Bebop (Anime Legends)
Contains:
26 uncut episodes, the complete series
Dual language, english subtitles
Great price
Average retail price: $49.99
Average cheapass price: $29.99
2. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Contains:
13 uncut episodes, the complete series
Dual language, English subtitles
Great price
Average retail price: $59.99
Average cheapass price: $34.99
Over the years, Bandai has learned how to make a good box set. Creating cheap box sets, and creating the Anime Legends line of older titles makes buying anime better than it used to be.
Overall, it seems that anime these days isn’t to shabby to buy. Cheapskates like myself, can finally purchase anime unlike a few years ago when the debut of anime on the DVD format was super expensive. Even though the new Blu-ray format is way more high tech than DVD, it will be a while before DVDs leave the market due to the high prices of Blu-ray movies, and that very few animes have made the move over to Blu-ray.
Why can I buy cheaper anime, like you?
Well, if you’re smart enough, i’d say, do a google search. Though, theres a few sites that typically sell anime cheaper than most retail websites.
1. Amazon.com 
Amazon seems to be always a mixed bag with anime, sometimes they may have a steal, and sometimes the prices are out of the roof. Usually, when a anime is up for pre order they tend to drop the price lower than usual, but usually there animes sell $10-30 cheaper than most sites online.
2. Wal-mart stores and Wal-mart.com 
Wal-mart always sells anime for super cheap. The problem is finding what you want in stock. Wal-mart takes a huge gamble by selling there box sets nearly $40 off the retail price. Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece go for very cheap here, so its usually when you see it, buy it.
3. Random sales, deals, discounts, and a simple Google search. 
Remember, when all else seems overpriced, always check if a certain site is having a sale. Sales can typically knock off a good chunk of a price. Sometimes there maybe a site that may of also underpriced a anime by accident (thinking its a regular DVD, and not a set) and you could get a steal from them. Also, always google for the best price before purchasing a anime DVD. You may never know if a random store online has a cheaper price than the site that looks like it has the best deal.
NOTE: I accidently named last week’s manga as Chapter 314, and not 414. I have fixed it now. =)
