#REDIRECT [[List of Naruto media#Original video animations]] {{R from merge}}
This is a '''list of [[Original Video Animation|OVA]]s''' for the ''[[Naruto]]'' anime. There are a total of four, including the short video released with the first ''Naruto'' movie. The first two were aired at [[Weekly Shonen Jump|Shonen Jump]]'s ''Jump Festa 2003'' and ''Jump Festa 2004'', respectively, and were later released on DVD. The third OVA was released on a bonus disc with the ''[[Naruto: Narutimate Hero 3]]'' video game for the [[PlayStation 2]].

* '''Japanese title:''' 紅き四つ葉のクローバーを探せ (''Akaki Yotsuba no Kurōbā o Sagase'')
* '''English title:''' ''Find the Crimson Four-Leaf Clover!''
* '''Approx. length:''' 17 min.
[[List of Konoha Genin#Konohamaru|Konohamaru]] is in love with a girl, Ureshino Kaede, who is moving away from the village. He wishes to win her heart with a red four leaf clover, which is also supposed to grant any wish. Konohamaru asks [[Naruto Uzumaki]] to help him find it, but they have to travel into the forbidden zone, Akagahara, to retrieve it. After activating almost every trap on the way to the clover, the pair are attacked by marionettes after moving a statue to reach the clover. [[Sakura Haruno (Naruto)|Sakura Haruno]] and [[Sasuke Uchiha]] appear to help, but still can't defeat them. At last, the marionettes shut off after Konohamaru lifts the statue back to its original position.Then one of the leaves fall off. Konohamaru still gives the clover to Kaede, and she kisses him on his cheek. (Apparently, Kaede liked Konohamaru also, due to her asking about Konohamaru and silently saying goodbye to him.) ''[[Manga Entertainment]]'' have released this as a UK exclusive alongside Mission: Protect the Waterfall Village.

== Naruto OVA 2: Jump Festa 2004 ==<!-- This section is linked from [[Naruto]] -->
<!-- Deleted image removed: [[Image:Narutoova2.gif|150px|thumb|right|US dub release.]] -->
* '''Japanese title:''' 滝隠れの死闘 オレが英雄だってばよ! (''Takigakure no Shitō Ore ga Eiyū Dattebayo!'')
* '''English title:''' ''Battle at Hidden Falls. I Am the Hero!''

This OVA is more action-oriented than the first one. In the beginning, Team 7, along with [[Kakashi Hatake]], escort a ninja named Shibuki, the leader of his village, to his home at [[Naruto geography#Takigakure|Takigakure]]. Shibuki is a coward, however, due to circumstances surrounding his father's death. The Hidden Village has a secret bottle of water called the "Hero's Water." The water imbues whoever drinks it with a dramatic, but temporary, increase in chakra. The effects are similar to opening a "chakra gate," in that it can shorten lifespan as well. Five [[Naruto ninja ranks#Missing-nin|missing-nin]] come to the village to steal the Hero's Water, and Team 7 defends against the incursion.

This OVA aired in the US on [[May 19]], [[2007]], on [[Cartoon Network]]'s [[Toonami]] block. The DVD was released on [[May 22]], [[2007]]. This Special received a TV-Y7-FV rating when it first aired due to the fact that Cartoon Network ignored its original rating. Reruns are now TV-PG-V.

The Genin have blue crystals, while the [[Naruto ninja ranks#Chuunin|Chunin]] and Jonin have red crystals.
