I've started watching _Naruto_ and was wondering if anyone actually dies or if
it is like _Dragon Ball_ and it never really happens.

Please no spoilers about who dies, just if someone does or if there are
serious injuries inflicted.

Does anyone actually die?


Yes, people die. The first major arc (Zabuza arc) features multiple deaths.
Several villains die throughout the story. Some country leaders also die, as
do some fairly plot-important characters and/or their relatives. A lot of the
most important characters end up near-death, but survive for various reasons.
Not all of those are able to recover well enough to resume their previous
lives.

There are often serious injuries inflicted on "good guys" which causes them to
be assumed dead but they usually end up alive and well with a few exceptions
here and there.

> There is a medical ninja who basically magically cures everyone.

The villains die more often but some of the stronger ones live and cause a lot
of trouble. Most just die though.
