WELL... yeah i know, well i don't know if you know but Naruto is over so... Damn... Well that was one heck of a ride though. So basically this thread is so that you guys can post whatever you thought of Naruto, or thinking if guys are new to it(It's worth it, it may get a bit boring but i have no regrets), This is a general rant so if you don't feel like reading it... then... well DON'T.
Naruto along With Bleach, One Piece and Dragon Ball(Not Z) were one of the first cartoons(I didn't know what an anime was back then) i watched and damn i loved them all. I was a kid back then so i didn't give a damn about the story, i just remember all those badass fights, particularly Lee and Gaara's first encounter along with Lee and Kimi(WHY WASN'T HE BROUGHT BACK! EVEN HAKU WAS BOUGHT BACK DAMNIT) Not to mention though the story may have seemed a bit far fetched and dragged on the character development was good... not great, but it was good and along with the fights kept me content enough to keep watching.
Though i have to admit i never actually got to the end of the Naruto anime, parent's caught me watching an episode and coincidentally it was one where Naruto used his sexy-jutsu and well suffice to say that screwed me up. Never actually got around to watching it again until i was old enough to go online myself and stream it, even then 300-ish episodes is a lot to catch up with and i gave up with that.
So i kind of skipped around to Shippuden which was just beginning, and voila i began watching the Shippuden anime and boy was it good, especially loved the time skip and how all the characters had changed which was cool and of course the Akatsuki the final confrontation between Sasuke and Itachi, and the team meeting Tobi which if most people were into the manga/anime back then would remember the shitload of debate that went on about who he was(I KNEW IT EVER SINCE I SAW THE SINGULAR EYE THING. IT WAS OBITO WOO)
And then there were so many other things that happened in shippuden, with Sasuke gone it was up to Sai to fill in the gaps, though i assume his horrible social skills didn't help much(Thought they were some good laughs), Jiraiya Vs Pein, Sasuke Vs Deidara, Hidan Vs Shikimaru(I wonder is Hidan still rotting in that hole.. Why the hell didn't anyone try to get him out, honestly not saving the immortal guy is a pretty dumb thing to do) and my personal favorite The Team Vs Sasori fight which was pretty badass, not to mention Asuma's fight as well, it was heartbreaking to see him die, and Jiraiya as well, i KEPT HOPING that he was just faking but i guess not...
Naruto seemed to get quite a bit of closure with him meeting his dad and all, especially since they fought together etc... and how could i forget the shinobi war. It was action packed till the end, The Kages Vs Madara, All the dead shinobis who were revived, particularly Zabuza and his gang and the dead Itachi Vs Kabuto fight, well... That was a mind wrecking fight, i find Izanami(right spelling right?) pretty cool, and on that note the Sasuke Vs Danzo fight was pretty cool, kind of creepy when you realized he had all those eyes in his hands *shivers* Then onwards it was fight fight fight until the very last moment when we saw Naruto and Sasuke conclude a 14 year old journey(Kind of a buzz kill on the fight though...) And seeing Sasuke and Naruto after they grew up gave me a great deal of closure, except the fact that some of the couple pairing weren't given out(damn that).
I'm pretty sure there's a hell of a lot of moments that i missed... Well more than that actually, but for now this is pretty much i can think of right on the spot. On another note, leave you're favorite ninjas in your posts, mine were Lee, Kimimaro, Minato and Guren.
