It's fine, the combat is flawed in structure thanks to how substitutions work but the fundamentals capture the entire Naruto idea, the aesthetics are faithful if a bit low budget a lot of the time, it gets a lot of emotional moments right on the money and also kind of oversimplifies some other moments. It also helps that Storm 2 covers the best arc from the show and has a lot of the narrative core that worked still, even if it's cut down for time.
They iron out the kinks in the later games but what's here is a decent satisfactory fanservice package. I'm part of a small audience that's going to enjoy this game and recommending it to those not in this group would be silly. (6/10)
