It isn’t for me, but I could see how people would enjoy this.
This light-hearted entry in the Naruto series is a breath of fresh air for viewers who want a break from the more gritty themes. The absurd but enjoyable story, combined with great animation, sound design, and enjoyable character interactions is what makes this episode enjoyable.
The story of this short OVA is obviously simple and straightforward. Naruto is in a sports competition to get a free holiday. However, he desperately needs the toilet and is in obvious pain. To me this type of story in Naruto is enjoyable but something I forced myself to watch. I’m not of those types of stories but if you want some more light-hearted Naruto episodes, then this OVA is for you.
The animation for this episode is great, it’s got the sa…

Whenever I pull out the listing of a franchise, there's bound to be a handful of trash mixed in, and Naruto's endless list is no different. Not only was this special episode a shitpost, but it was also about a variation of shitting.
The majority of the humor or attempts at it came off as cringy or cliché groups that try harder than they should, however, the pay off had me chuckle quite a bit. I liked the hidden references that come off as characters that would never match up with the personality they put up for them in this episode, the 11 minutes long disaster was almost as painful as Naruto holding in his stomach puke and as good as Naruto felt when he released as it ended.

This is a short, silly special about a suffering Naruto and his usual antics. It’s situated in a village sports festival, so there’s even more chaos at play than usual.
I like this because I enjoy seeing Naruto just being Naruto, and the fictional sports festival allows me to witness a playful side to characters I’ve come to love. It’s entertaining to watch our titular character stopped over and over again by a multitude of people and reasons. Glimpses of characters like Itachi also add a bit more silliness and fancifulness to the whole thing.
If you don’t like slice of life or you’re not overly amused by Naruto’s shenanigans, then it might be better to skip this one. But if you’re like me, and you enjoy one or both of these, then this is a fun way to pass the time.

This special definitely draws from Naruto's negative experiences when he tried impersonating Sasuke in an attempt to steal a kiss from Sakura. The comedy focuses on the inability to use the bathroom during a special event, but is honestly not for those who would label Captain Underpants as crass simply because much of the humor is related to - well - the bathroom and the bodily functions which go along with this. In fact, people are quick to label any work which uses bathroom humor as immature.
There is nothing immature about this special, not even the ending. In fact, the ending makes sense given the plot and Naruto's personality. Of course, there are those who may not like the fact Naruto is made to look bad at the end, yet this ignores the fact Naruto's done plenty to make himself look…

I kind of enjoyed this special. Yes, it was ridiculous. But if you just don't take it seriously, I think you might enjoy it too. It's short, so you might as well watch it. Personally, it made me laugh. Also, every character in the story up to that point, alive or dead, appear. It was cool to recognize these characters. There really isn't much to say. It's nothing too special but if you want a decent laugh, albeit toilet humor, like, really. Seeing Naruto get screwed every minute or so was fun. Some jokes missed, some not. Overall, 5/10. It's mediocre in general.

It's an 11 minute special that is just devoted to comedy, and it's actually not bad. It's childish, but it's funny because all of the main characters are just casually there. There's nothing really special about it, except when Naruto sees the line for the bathroom, but you'll see why that's so funny. All of the genin are participating in the sports event, and they all use their techniques which make the special more lively. The sound and artwork is just like the Naruto series, so if you like it then you will probably like this. Over all, since it's an extremely short comedy special, there's no harn in watching it and I recommend that you do so.

First off, one should know not to take this special very seriously. For one, the special shows every single character attending the sports festival (even already dead characters). I myself enjoyed pointing out some people like the 4th Hokage and Itachi from the crowd. Second, the plot revolves around Naruto needing to use the restroom, but to his dismay, he just can't seem to find a toilet without interruptions.
The animation in the Sports Festival is the same animation used in the actual movie, so it is high quality in terms of detail. The sound is... Well it sounds like what any Naruto scene would sound like: Naruto sceaming, background music being fast-paced, and Naruto screaming some more. The characters pretty much act the same with Shino being his weird self and Shikamaru complainin…

This special add for the naruto series makes a great pass time for those tired of their serious life.
A great humor (that really doesn't have anything to do with the original time flow of the series) makes it a light-hearted 'Special'. You'll die of laughter, every moment as Naruto struggles to keep in his "business" that makes every watcher laugh!
Though the time flow of Naruto wasn't really thought about in this 'Special', the abilities and special attacks of each character are still the same, making the whole 'Special' more hilarious! As the whole story revolved around a 'school' festival with all the known genins involved. Those Genins were basically competing for first prize nothing more, they were practically doing this for fun.
Apparently though, too bad for Naruto, because bef…

It wants to be just a warning for everyone: if you can't bear the childish poop-pee humor, than don't watch it. If you have this kind of humor, than it's for you. I grant that it will makes everyone's brain melt. If you have too much free time, just watching won't kill you, but you can save yourself from 11 moments pain (because of laughing, or because it's that bad.)
The story has nothing to do with the original Naruto stories. Only the design and the character's abilities are the same, but I think even the characteristics changed (if it can change in 11 minutes). They are absolutely overdid.
The background of the whole thing is a sports festival in which all of the well known leaf-genins are competing. As a matter of fact it's absolutely irrelevant. For example milk-drinking is one part…

What to say about a little special that has to do with Naruto having to poop. Nothing much except it is the low point of all of Naruto(including all the fillers).
To begin the story, Konoha is holding a sports festival and all the genin are competing including Naruto. Unfortunantly Naruto has the runs and tries to go poop all through the little special stopped every step of the way.
The art is below average Naruto fare with the biggest problem being that all the background characters are major characters from the show, such as Itachi is viewable as are dead characters such as Haku and Zabuza.
The sound is normal for Naruto using all the voices however goes overboard on the fart sounds.
The characters are all the characters just using their powers for humor such as Shino using his bugs,…
