The report actually includes a sixth step in completing the difficult task of getting the Japanese voices within Naruto Rise of a Ninja and that is to "Have fun!"

Naruto: Rise of a Ninja is centered on the main character of the anime series, as you can imagine, while the storyline goes a little something like this: 12 years ago, a fearsome 9-tailed demon fox attacked the village of Konoha. Many ninjas fell during the battle, until the most powerful one sealed the monster into the body of a newborn ? NARUTO.

Now, NARUTO has grown up to a hyperactive ninja-in-training who's more interested in pranks than schoolwork. However, he's determined to become the greatest Ninja ever! With this dream in mind, he will never stop his efforts and through hard work he will gain respect and acceptance. This is the rise of a Ninja. Gamers experience Naruto starting from the series' beginning, re-living the hit anime and manga, seeing Naruto become a respected ninja, from the "noisy ninja-academy dropout" he used to be.
