If Bandai realize the potential in the brand Naruto and go worldwide, they would be a lot more successful than focusing on such a narrow market as they do now.

And the excuse about English dubbed Naruto anime eps? What exactly stops anyone from getting the eps online and watching them with English subs? It's a lame excuse...

Most of you tend to draw conclusions out of very narrow viewpoint, not taking into account all factors that keep the game alive and that give it the potential to grow. It's really up to Bandai to take advantage of that potential though.

who cares about anime related themes? i for one pay little to no attention to the manga...
