Naruto seems to be the animated program that just keeps on ticking. It seems like nothing can stop the anime or its popular spin-off, Naruto: Shippuden, from taking over the sales charts on home video. As always with Warner Home Video and Viz Video, you can expect to see another volume into the Shippuden bloodline arriving like clockwork, as Volume 8 of the box sets is coming to DVD on October 11, 2011. Note that this is the box to contain the 100th episode, as episodes 89 through 100 are captured in this one.

Naruto's new jutsu Rasen Shuriken is unbelievably powerful, but because of the risks to the user, Tsunade forbids Naruto to use it. When Jiraiya returns to the village, Naruto seeks his guidance, and the two head off to a hot springs resort to work on a solution. While all of this is going on, Kakashi leads a team in search of Orochimaru's hideout, and when Naruto hears about it, he begs to join them. Naruto's DVD adventures continue for the suggested retail price of $49.95 for this three-disc box set.

The box set will contain production sketches, storyboards, and more. Check out the box art below:
