I know that these types of musicals don’t usually do well in the U.S., but maybe it will in Japan.  If nothing else that cast and their costumes look amazing!  Naruto is played by Kodai Matsuoka, Sasuke is played by Ryuji Sato, Sakura is played by Yui Ito, and lastly Gaara is played by Kenta Suga.

AMV of the Week

This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber cannonfodder90.  Naruto is used for the imagery and it is edited around the song “You Can’t Hurry Love” performed by Phil Collins.  First off I’ve always loved Phil Collins’ version of “You Can’t Hurry Love”.  I can’t tell you why I just do.  This is an older AMV, but still a decent video.  Cannonfodder90 does a nice job of editing the scenes together and there is an attempt to match up Naruto’s lip movement with the songs lyrics.  At times it works and at other times it doesn’t.  Like I said it is still a nice video with a tune that I enjoy.  You can find it on YouTube under “Naruto AMV – You Can’t Hurry Love and you can check it out below.
