For those who read the Naruto manga and loved it, then you'll be happy to hear that it is coming soon to Cartoon Network. For those who have never heard of it, then I don't know if it's a goo dthing or a bad thing.
To put it simple, Naruto is about a young boy who is training to become the leader of the ninjas of his own village; Konohagakure. However, what young Uzumaki Naruto doesn't know... (until someone just decideds to let it slip of course) is that he is the vessel of a nine tailed demon fox that the fourth Hokage had sealed away.
As Naruto progresses ever so slowly to becoming the next Hokage, he meets a lot of new people like Sakura Haruno, the girl that he has a crush on. There is also Uchiha Sasuke, the top rookie ninja and the boy who Sakura has a crush on. Mmm.. yeah, always going on with the love triangles....
There are a lot more characters that you'll get to know (and probably love). Then again, you just may be afraid of it. Naruto does seem to like to change into a naked girl. But we'll see about whether or not you'll enjoy it when it comes out.

Naruto is great! I used to hate Sakura, but for some reason, I like her now. She's one of my favorite characters in this. But Naruto is number one! He's just awesome because he has a demon fox spirit inside of him.

Naruto is the best anime I've seen for a while. You DO know that the majority of episodes were downloadable from the net? I'll bet that the episodes you'll see on the Cartoon Network will be censored and have bad vocalists.

That's what I don't like. They're going to put it on Cartoon Network, and we know they're going to edit stuff out. ... Why couldn't they have put it on the anime network or something. At least they won't censor it.

Yeah, cartoon network does a pretty good job of ripping cartoons to shreds.

But that is why they have Adult Swim. When you think about it, they don't want the younger audience to see half of these things (although I'm sure some of them just watch stuff like that anyways.) I still just wish they had put it on the Anime Network or even Adult Swim at the least.

Nah, I don't need to see it. I hate it when they butcher a show.

*coughEscaflownecoughhackcough* ... Although the butchering there wasn't as bad as it could've been.

[glow=blue,2,300]I'll be waiting for the DVDs to come out, so I'm not stuck mourning over a butchered anime when it gets put on the air. x__x I still have no clue who bought it though, and hope to GOD that it isn't 4Kids. *gag*[/glow]

[glow=blue,2,300]x_o Fingernails? I'd say the eyes. *morbid* Either way, it will indeed be slow and painful. 4Kids shoiuld never have been allowed to come into existence for what it did to the shows it's licensed. *really really REALLY hopes they didn't get Naruto, though prepared to be mooshed by REALITY*[/glow]

Fingernails. Then the bones in the fingers. Then, piece by piece, the skin. The eyes should come after horrible, horrible things have been done, so that they may look upon the twisted lump of flesh that was their body and despair. ... ... >.> Now why did my brother call me a Goth at dinner yesterday...?

I saw a commercial for Naruto today and it looks pretty cool, I really want to see it. Its going to be on Toonami though, which means many a edit.

Gah. I'd suggest just downloading it from somewhere like Narutofan (if it still offers downloads). They'll probably butcher the show.

[glow=blue,2,300]Try realitylapse.com. They apparently have a whole buttload of stuff from a number of different animes. It's like the anime version of bluelaguna.net.[/glow]

Uhmm, Narutofan should be subbed. Dunno about realitylapse; 'kaa-san'll have to answer that one.

[glow=blue,2,300]I would assume original japanese subbed, since the anime had only just been licensed here in the united states over the summer.[/glow]

[glow=blue,2,300]I have no idea who licensed it, so, until I actually see it on TV, I won't know.
