What can I really say about this anime other than it's the big 3 and well it's just not as interesting as it used to be. I mean I've been watching Naruto since like 2005 and I loved it but I guess watching this for 8 years have put a toll on my likeliness towards it. Now I find myself constantly thinking, don't watch this week it's probably a filler(I mean fillers have some points towards it. It gives general information and backgrounds of other characters. Which I don't mind at all.) but half the time through out the season, It's always been about Naruto and Sasukes weird forbidden love. The most annoying part of it is that the flashback aren't even consistent. The connection between Naruto and Sasukes meeting and other things always changes scenarios(or maybe I'm just getting it wrong) but moving on it does still have good bits and I just really want to see something good in the 4th ninja war.
This awesome anime made up my childhood and is still my favorite. Trust me, I have watched a lot of other anime series too but Naruto definitely inspires us a lot. Of course it does have some fillers. But they are not that bad and some of them are very good indeed. Naruto has lots of great fighting scenes, plots, twists and it teaches us a lot about friendship, hard work, willpower and so much more. It is really an anime worth watching. Besides the manga is also doing really great. Give it a try and you will see what I mean.
Ive been a big fan of Naruto since it first premiered on Toonami. I watched the first season of Naruto dubbed. And i was wondering why it ended but i was wrong, I found Naruto Shippuden. This anime is amazing just like the original series. Every should know what Naruto is about, a boy who is aiming to be Hokage so that he can be acknowledge. But there is more to it, he has a very sad and touching past. While many people may bash on this anime about too many fillers, I cannot lie, Ive complained many times about the fillers but it is a great series. We sometimes need to understand that the anime cant get close to the manga. But right now im very happy where Naruto is heading. The 4th great shinobi war is epic.
they made a error on the pain saga Kohonomru kill the pain that can revive ppl then he was back to life when they did the power of the six cuz he had to revive the pain that can shoot missiles but how was he alive when kohonomru killed him that was a error by the aruthor
i have to say i loved this show for many years because i grew up with it but last i think 150 episodes i have gotten very pissed off i really don't care about naruto passed because i have this awkward moment where i can legit repeat it word for word in Japanese and English and i don't even speak Japanese that's how many times they have repeated it although the flash backs of sasuke in this series intrigued the hell out of me and put a lot of sense into what happened if i have to say though i mostly enjoy when a gaara flash back comes back because honest fuck naruto and sasuke life when it comes to sadness and sorrow to gaara never knew his mother his father fucking hated him it seemed and his teacher who was his only friend and uncle later on you find out tried to kill him his brother and sister where terrified of him well you get the point if i have to say something its that yes this anime is awesome in short periods and that is horrible for so long and just makes you go AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH FUCKING SHIT ANOTHER BULL SHIT EPISODE WHY DO THEY KEEP MAKING ME WAIT EVERY WEEK GIVE ME DOUBLES IF ANYTHING and i know im going to get so much shit for calling it awesome for short periods but if you look over series and review comments and really just side fact the fact that we all really grew up with this anime you will agree if i have to rate this anime just because the creator now has said i don't like this series im dragging it out for the money i gotta drop it down to a 7 out of 10 if i look at in my sentimental view of it to growing up with it of course its a 10 out of 10
the 2 out of 5 stars is based on my title for my review of that part of the show
Naruto began like that: Naruto himself was anoying weak, Sasuke was a complexed maniac kid and Kakashi did all the job. We liked it because the char was the weaker, dumber, he only served as a tool of comparisson another ninjas better than him (Neiji, Lee, gaara etc.).
The drama is good, in a context of shinobis not being only tools and stuff. The only moments when Naruto did something useful was when Kyuubi took the wheels, Not Naruto again.
Then everything began to change: he became froglike, kicked Someone as powerful as the sage of six paths. Not having enough, he fuse himself with his tailed beast and gained superman power and... BECAME THE RUKUDOU SENNIN HIMSELF instead of some half hume half beast, like Bee and other jinchurikis!
My whole point here is NARUTO GREW TOO POWERFUL TOO FAST UNATURALY AND UNEXPLAINED, AND THAT SUCKS TO THE STORY. Don't you think it is a little forced his evolution?
I'm from Brasil, so please don't complain for the english, still learning. Thanks.
For one the series will almost be over. If your just watching it , i recommend you skip all the fillers. Many of the fighting scenes will make no sense. Such as how an anbu ninja(supposebly only a little weaker than a hokage) which is the strongest ninja in the village.Tends to die very often ,. The creator doesnt really care about anyother characters except Naruto. Which is great becuase the show is called _NARUTO. but I fell in love with some side characters and it suck to see them , So... left behind. Naruto is dissapointing at times.
Other than that the Fighting is insane , and the drama is perfect.
+1. Fighting
+1character develop
+1 Comedy
- 1 side characters left behind
-1 Some parts just make no sense what so ever. You make think that owe i jut dont know what im talking about.
But i actually pay attention to every detail.
I'm not saying im that cool , but ahem lol i beat Ocarina of time's water temple ... in 30 mins.
This anime isn't bad, but, it isn't epic either, not like it used to be. Alot of these comments about it being a gateway anime is very true. Personally, I started watching anime with naruto, at the time, it was fantastic nothing could come close. But slowly a good way into naruto shipuuden's release i started to realise that the authors were stretching it. It is understandable i thought , because in truth it makes a lot of money and the author will want to keep it around as long as possible. The problem is, with every terrible filler, with every unnecessary flashback (which is essentially a means of soaking up the minutes) , with every in depth highlight of a character nobody really cares about , or an arc that nobody wants to see we begin to more and more develop quite the distaste for naruto. I tried to start watching it again because i heard the great ninja war started, but i noticed right away that it was moving at a snail's pace.
The point is i stumbled upon some truly legendary anime in my time. The likes of Death note, Code Geass, Steins;gate (which started slow but became one incredibly moving story), school rumble(great main character, and hilarious), and how could i not mention my favourite Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan!!! ( for those saying naruto has cahracters that grow on you , you will meet a character that will change your opinion of what a truly great character is.)
All I'm saying is two things... 1. even a great anime becomes poor if stretched too long. (and the team is not very good at fillers, some teams are good at fillers like Prince of Tennis fillers were fantastic)
2. Try those anime's i have mentioned and then try naruto again, i bet you'll agree with me.
I watched this since it first came on. I instantly loved it, it is an anime where the characters grow on you. This is one of those anime where you are hungry for more. You should problemly watch Naruto before Naruto Shippuden though. I am most likely to be the biggest Naruto fan ever and I recommend this anime for everyone.
THIS IS THE BEST ANIME EVER
Naruto isn't about a story line or instance in his life - its about his entire life story and his experiences - every heart breaking, joyful, angering, awesome, funny, and down right crappy moment in this anime is the story of his life and of those around him both friend and foe - that's including the fillers -
If you want a 12-24 episode anime where the bad guys history can be explained in 2 minutes and the good guys history explained in 4 minutes and has limited number of characters, then do not watch this. there are plenty of short animes that are great!!
If you want an anime where you grow with the characters to the point where the questions you have had for YEARS are finally answered years later, then sit down and enjoy one hell of a ride!!! great action - great humor - and great 'life lessons' await - you have 450+ episodes and 10+ movies to catch up on. enjoy
naruto to naruto shippuden is a anime were the primary theme is strength of bonds between people. it is hidden/well hidden for a way into the series the emotions to the battles have a tendancy to throw many 1st time watchers off. the world of naruto is a shinobi based one. now thee main character may not be a real ninja(lack of stealth and forethought) but he does bring a suprising feeling to the series with his off brand IDGAF quirky attitude towards the shinobi world.
naruto brings many great battles and some intresting filler arcs along with it characters you will love and hate and a few creepy ones but it is definetly worth the time to get imersed in the story and get to know characters.
naruto renewed the veiw of a shinobi. iver personally watched since the debute and read it in manga form since i was in the 4th-5th grade been years i still find myself compelled to read it along with probably my favorite one piece weekly. both are great and bring great emotion and story for manga readers.
Your excessive use of profanity and complete disregard to the actual portion of this segment being strictly for reviews is pathetic. I too have taken the liberty to have to respond here, but please stop being idiots and go post in the forums if you have complaints.
You're wasting the time of people who actually want to know what shows are about, and see if they feel like watching them or not. Let alone you're destroying brain cells of people who actually have a shred of intelligence for having to put up with the crap you are posting.
Sincerely ~ an annoyed otaku
1. why do you care what other people watch, you obviously have no life.
2.You haters just dont understant naruto because u havent seen every episode and followed it from the beggining. its an intracate web of charecters, battles, emotions. Its one big fantastic story line so fuck off.
Naruto is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a clusterfuck of story and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive shipping ***gotry and DARKNESS. The normal anime fan can see this as the s**t it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.
However, these very aspects that try to smear over the s**t of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& ***gots who engage in every kind of ***gotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the jutsus, peculiar, colorful clothes, the whole ninja ***gotry and everything about the Naruto world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on revenge, and overall preachiness of the series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen and his sense of unwarranted self-importance towards the world. Exactly the kind of shit that makes little kiddies and ***ards eat this s**t right the f**k up.
I used to think Naruto was good, but that was many years ago. I think of it as more of a gateway anime, rather than it being awesome. It's for newbies to anime. I have continued watching since I started, but lately, fillers are far too often, when unneeded. I read the manga, and so far that's good enough for me. I don't even care about the anime itself because it is just so irritating when I feel that just when the anime is about to show an awesome part -- NOPE. Filler/Flashbacks. The directors and developers need a kick in the face, because they've been killing this show for a while now.
For me, Naruto is very awesome........, it's the best anime I've ever watch!!!!! Most of the story make sense. But some of them is confusing. But Masashi Kishimoto is very creative. His drawing is also very nice and cool. We, Narutards understand well about this......, but I don't know what's your opinion. To me, Naruto needs a bit of action and adventures!!!! With that, Naruto will be awesome.......!!!
Worst anime ever made.
An epic and amazing story. If any thing it is better then one piece or bleach. Naruto knows how to touch anyone's soul, even if its filler or non filler. The story is great and continuously gets darker has the series goes on, shippuden being the most dark naruto series ever. Naruto teaches us many things, such has never giving up on yourself and always trying your best to succeed. Naruto was originally about the world of ninja, but now its about the character trying to save a friend. Albeit, every character gets the right amount of attention in shippuden and are never ignored. As naruto matures, we get a darker and more understandable character then before, even now kishimoto keeps surprising us and throwing many curballs, which makes the anime more entertaining. Thank you to kishimoto for creating such a masterpiece. The meaning of naruto is in every fans heart.
naruto: 9/10
naruto shippuden: 10/10
IMPORTANT:
*** Insane amount of filler (At one point there was 4 month worth of non stop filler and it does not end there)
*** Killer flashback that takes up an entire episode
*** Recapping when its not needed
*** Takes 10+ episode to get from point A to point B
*** They are dragging on the anime for the $$$ so its really losing its quality in some aspect.
Suggestion:
*** Do not bother watching this anime until it finish airing, afterwards search online for which episodes are fillers/flashback/recap because all together there is got to be like 6+ month worth of trash in here
*** Stop watching if until it finish airing and spare yourself from the pain of a few legit episode follow by a sh*t load of filler.
Opinion on the Anime:
Okay this is a very great anime but personally I think it ran its course and they are basically dragging it on for the $$$ making it seem like its never getting anywhere or getting to where its suppose to go.
I get that sometimes things need to be explain and there needs to be character development in order for the watchers to understand what is going on or the characteristics of a certain character. But jeez come on that is not what they are doing here, this is pure bullsh*t to drag on the series for the $$$.
Other than the bullsh*t I listed up there this anime is doing pretty well as far as graphic, storyline, and other areas.
Rating:
I gave it a 3 because this anime has a lot of potential and is not a piece of trash thrown together. But it does not deserve a 4 or a 5 because these sh*theads are dragging it on for the $$$ and just doing whatever they want now.
i think episode 290-299 will be a 9 episode filler and theyll make episode 300 a 1 hour short glimpses recap and then the great ninja war battle
