I checked out his Naruto record and unfortunately he directed the movies that weren't very good at all.

Fair enough.

At the same, Murata also directed the episode where Naruto and co. try to see behind Kakashi's mask, which practically everybody liked. While I haven't seen any of the Shippuden movies he's directed yet, his episodic work on the TV series has been fairly solid. So I'm looking forward to this, presumably short given the amount of material out there, TV series. At the very least, we'll finally be getting another guy directing the annual Naruto movie.

haven't read or enjoyed naruto since the timeskip, but i've been enjoying the rock lee spin-off pretty consistently. glad to see it's doing well enough to get an anime adaptation. GO, LEE!!

Awesome news. Springtime of Youth is hilarious and I can't wait to see it in animated form.

(Will of Fire was a great movie, by the way, don't be hating)
