Off work, bored flipping through channels ans saw Sasuke taking on Oro. Stopped for a few years. Got back into it around 2011 and started reading b/c I got sick of waiting on the dub.

The day it premiered on Toonami :D

I think I was in like 5th grade when that happened. I remember trying to sing along with the Haruka Kanata opening when it came on :D lol

Toonami all the way. Instantly became my favorite show (I was a kid then), and it's been a huge part of my life since. I stopped watching on Toonami around the time they started airing the massive filler arc in Part 1 (after the main story ended) and then I made my way to Shippuuden online. I watched that up too somewhere around Naruto vs Kakuzu, then I became too impatient with waiting for the anime when I knew the manga was ahead of the game, so then I moved to the manga (at that point in time the manga was in the Pain invasion arc). I remember zipping through the manga, going from around where I was in the anime to the latest chapter (Naruto bursting into 8 tailed mode) in two days. It was amazing. Nothing thus far can top my expression when I got to the latest chapter and saw Naruto burst, and is the reason why I haven't read the past 3 chapters. I want to try and recapture my excitement of being able to continue reading, by trying to marathon through as many as I can.

What kid could resist ninjas throwing ninja stars and kunai's at each other, and then blowing fire and shit at everyone?

Cool, but it must be torture to have to wait those weeks for the new manga chapters:hyper:

So I guess no one really heard about the Manga first. Unless any hipsters want to claim that they did
I wonder if most people in Japan discovered Naruto through the anime first...
