Finding a break from the pressures of studying to be a doctor from your parents, the stresses of trying to fit into society, and the burden of existing in such a fascist world? Well I have just the anime for you!

With an entirely innocent plot of a teenage witch learning to juggle studying high school and witchcraft at the same time, and a cast of characters that are not pushovers, everyone in this world can benefit from such stress-free anime, even if your favourite anime of all time is one of the three longest running anime in history.

Only 12 episodes for the fidgety anime watchers, ... and no shady 'side-genre' to distract you from the goodness it exudes from your screen.

Also a great anime to watch for the goers who are in a dilemma of seeking a break from anime.

Singapore decided to show us anime fans some mercy by screening Road to Ninja, Houou no Miko and Tiger & Bunny: The Beginning in the cinemas.

Road to Ninja is a little different from the previous movies. While movies 1 to 5 introduce new characters—protagonists and antagonists—with plots that totally differ from the original story's, RtN is almost like a possible subplot of the main story.

With the exception of some, we get the same characters we see in the main story, but with a strange twist that would greatly appeal to the audience. It’s like a dream come true to some fans. It also keeps your ... mind going while you watch it, which personally, is what makes Naruto fun to watch. There’s also a hidden message in it, that is actually quite obvious in the starting of the movie.

There's a big chunk of flashback in one of the parts though, but it was from my favourite episode, so I'm not complaining.

Same art, new soundtracks, and overall it’s unique, funny and (kind of) tear-shedding, what I find—unbiasedly—worth skipping work for and the S$16.90 (large bottle of Coke with a free refill included) I spent on. I actually managed to get my non-Naruto-loving sister to watch it. And hey, more MinaKushi loving here!
