A random comercial showed up and i got interested right away at the way that naruto locked it was just too flashy for me to be ignored

Man I don't even remember. All I know is that me and my best friend watched Naruto together growing up, and that's how I got hooked. It's also weird because in class (elementary school) Naruto was the most popular thing among us 4th or 5th graders. Literally that and Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh.

Funny story. One day at recess we were acting out Naruto characters, and I wanted to be Sasuke so bad because my childhood crush at the time, was a fan girl of Sasuke. Reality hit me and I was cast as Choji instead lmao). My fat ass smh.

I don't know why I remember that story, but it's just a prominent memory from my childhood in terms of Naruto stuff. Outside of that, I watched every canon episode growing up (most of them anyway). I remember during the final fight, everyone was talking about in class, and during that week I got into serious trouble with my parents, and they wouldn't let me watch TV so I missed it. I also missed the re-run episode too. Thankfully my classmates filled me in, and I didn't get to see the final fight until I discovered YouTube. Good times.

I didn't discover Naruto Shippuden until my 7th grade year, and by that time things were already pretty far. I started reading the Manga for the first time during my Freshman year of High School, when Madara entered the battlefield.

Another cool thing is that my English teacher was a big fan of Naruto, and she talked about it with us (my best friend whom I mentioned earlier who was still my friend up till this time). She was a die hard Madara fan and actually inspired me to read the Manga, and here I am.

Weird how things work out lol.

Me and a few friends played as Naruto characters as well when we were kids. I always wanted to be Shikamaru or Sasuke so bad. I ended up getting Shino, which I wasn't too fond of as a kid (but he grew on me).

A local dubbed version was shown in our national tv. It was a hit. I remember watching original naruto when i was just a young elementary student. My favorite parts are always the fight during chunin exam.

When I was a tiny little rock, I was with my father in a video game shop, it was during the early days of my a ps2(good times) when the dude working there recommended my father that he buys me Naruto ultimate ninja and said it's big in Japan and stuff and that's when I got introduced to Naruto.

Sasuke and Rock Lee where my favorite characters to play as (shit was intense back then, Sasuke looked badass, had red eyes and can breathe fire, punch with electricity and even copy the moveset of his opponent if he uses his second or third ultimate while lee could become a super saiyan) Naruto wasn't really cool back then though, his jutsu is farting, turning to naked women, summoning frogs and cloning himself, he didn't even have rasengan back then, I guess that's why I prefer Sasuke to this day.

The Internet, circa 2006. I just kept seeing pictures, but didn't pay much attention to it until my cousin showed me the first few episodes of Shippuuden in 2007.
