Naruto Shippūden 5: Blood Prison (劇場版 NARUTO-ナルト- ブラッド・プリズン, Gekijōban Naruto: Buraddo Purizun) is the eighth overall Naruto film and fifth Naruto: Shippuden film which is to be released on July 30, 2011. The movie is written by Akira Higashiyama who also wrote The Gutsy Ninja. It is directed by Masahiko Murata.

The trailer tells us that Naruto is being imprisoned for attempting to assassinate the Raikage and for killing jonin from Iwa and Kiri. The prison is named Hozukijou aka Blood Prison. It is run by a man named Mui who uses a powerful imprisonment jutsu to seal away a prisoner's power. Naruto's life is said to be in great danger in this place. Naruto and his friends will have to prove his innocence and uncover the truth about what really happened.

Naruto and the Raikage are the only known characters at this point. Although the Rookie 9 and Team Gai are likely to be featured given the preview talks about Naruto's friends having to help him.

The movie will also feature a short called Naruto vs Konohamaru: The Burning Chunin Exam. Like with the previous shorts, it will be a comedy.

Plot sounds like it was meant for BLEACH...interesting nonetheless.

Naruto looks like a cool criminal in that one scene :heh:

damn, 4-th isn't even out on DVD yet

Naruto + A prison movie = Unfortunate implications.

The plot does sound like a Bleach movie, but the writer is suppose to be very good. Plus is looks like there are no annoying fillers girls who will fall in love with Naruto and take up space. If the Konoha 11 are involved it should be an okay movie. I look forward to their Scooby Doo-like investigating. They'll probably take an hour and half to solve a mystery that Shikamaru should of in 15 seconds.

I know naruto movies always screw with the actual story but this is really taking it far... tssssk konoha letting their jinchuuriki be imprisoned.
sigh let's see how many rasengans we can count this time:P

Naruto imprisoned for the murder of two Jonin's and assault on the Raikage. Sounds like a great movie! can't wait.

If it turns out it was a henge'd Zetsu, I'll take the DVD and eat it.

Just put Sasuke in there and we have Midnight Express 2.

Better yet, put Raikage in the same cell as Gaara... and have Gaara crying, like he does a lot lately.

The premise seems interesting, I just don't want it to be some sort of dungeon crawler or something of the sort.

WTH~ A new movie already? We haven't got The Lost Tower yet.....

I don't even remember the fourth movie... Can you tell me about the plot of the 4th movie, please?

I think we can guess how big the Rasengan will get this time.

Naruto Shippuden 5: Blood Prison

Naruto Shippuden 6: Stranded on a desert island.

While I enjoy the movies usually I wisht hey wouldn't mess up the sroyline so much...how will they explain away the Raikage scenes? Why would Konoha let their young hero Naruto be sent to prison?

doesn't make much sense logically at all!

The 4th movie was the lost tower.

Was? When did it air or what? Nothing I could possibly lay my hands on. I searched for it on Amazon and the bay... no offers. Is it out on DVD or BD yet?

I think it is due out pretty soon not sure on the exact date.

still waiting for the last movie to be subbed -_-

I am still unwilling to accept German translations, subs and dubs as licensed. Turning brilliant anime and manga into stuff for children is not licensing. This is blasphemy, this is madness! It's the license to kill. To kill emotions, to kill the plot, to kill everything that makes it worth spending money on. I want those high quality Blu-Ray Discs with 100% raw content but in a language I can understand, for example English. Yet there is a problem with the region codes... whoever invented that.

There are many animes, for example Samurai Champloo, Death Note and Azumanga Daioh which are well translated, but nearly everything that shows on TV, DBZ, Naruto and One Piece for example, are censored and turned into ****.
