I've never seen the show and haven't a clue what the story is all about, but have been quite taken by some of the footage i've seen - the cell shading is lovely and the fighting looks fun - and it seems to have been pretty well received so far. According to Ubisoft a patch is on the way that will add the Japanese voice casts from the show.

lol at the music :)
 
Since there's a patch coming with the Japanese voices, I'll probably rent it. I was hoping this was going to be more of an RPG/Adventure game when I first heard about it, but I think it's still worth a try.

The music is the the intro/end credits music from various eras of the show.
 
Looks kind of interesting. All I know is that the Naruto beat em ups on the GC were some of the best fighting games I've ever played, inclusive of classics like SF Alpha 2. If this game was a continuation of that series I'd be drooling, but it still looks like it could be a lark. It's a shame that the story of the series flushed itself down the tubes a long time ago.
 
The fighting games based on the show are the best I have played, and I do follow the show that has picked up in quality now that the fillers are over (literally about a hundred episodes of fillers).
