Eppy 3,446 Report post Posted June 7, 2006 watch the sub or read the manga...the dub doesnt really do much justice to it at all and the manga by far kicks the crap out of the anime due to all the crappy filler the anime puts in...also the serires itself starts off slow with the misc missions and stuff but it starts picking up later on "That fairy needs to stop shouting in my ear, or I'm going to throw her friend I have trapped in the bottle into a lava pit or something. HEY, LISTEN! No, YOU listen. If something's important, just say so without yelling at me. Or fly over to it and change color like you usually do. Just because I'm busy mowing the lawn and hoping I'll find some spare change, doesn't mean I can't hear you." - Link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strider Hiryu 2,704 Report post Posted June 7, 2006 Lets put it this way, it's an anime you absolutely love or absolutely hate. I can safely say I hate the anime (have seen completely thru ep 25 and various eps from 25 to 100 not in order) and am impartial about the manga. The manga is much better then the anime series but I still don't know whether I like it or not (though I'll admit the fight between Gaara and Lee during the exams was awesome). It basically just comes down to your taste in anime. and whether or not you like shows like Naruto. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted June 7, 2006 The first 10-20 episodes are pretty slow, and annoying in edited english. the unedited season 1 boxset is coming out soon, I'd suggest you watch that or the unedited fansubs. Once you watch the fights in the chunin exam episodes, the entire show takes off drastically from there and doesn't let up in its intensity for about 80 episodes.

gokuDX7 2,871 Report post Posted June 7, 2006 Theres alot of boring spots all through Naruto but theres also alot of great fights. So its a bit of a mix. I can't say why others like it but I can sure tell you the 2 things that make me want to keep watching it is to see more about Naruto and the 9tailed fox and also just to see Naruto and Hinata (im waiting for the day they do somthing "constructive" togeathor..like that will ever happen lol).

Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted June 7, 2006 I don't watch Naruto in english, their voices make me wanna spew. The neverending filler episodes are driving me nutz too. The manga rocks socks. Look at the flowers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell_Cat_18 1,359 Report post Posted June 9, 2006 I do enjoy reading the manga's, but the anime just doesn't appeal to me. I've tried to watch it, but like Lady said, the English voices are just horrible, that and for some reason I just can't get into it. I'm really not sure what the huge explosion was over the anime, I think it was kinda like Inuyasha was for a bit. Everybody and their dog, jumps in on the "awsome new anime" train, and choo-choo away they go. I don't know, everyone is intitled to their own opinion, I just never cared for it.

D_Marx 604 Report post Posted June 10, 2006 I'm not a fan of it, either. My animation demands are a little higher as far as characters go. I'm a fan of Full Metal Alchemist, Evangelion, and Gundam Wing. But yes, dubs absolutely do suck. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D_Marx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
