I'll fill you guys in on my story. :cool:

One day i was hanging out at my boys house, and we were doing the usual. Eating snacks, playing ps3, and listening to music. I noticed his little brother was on the computer in the same room so I looked at what he was doing. He was watching Naruto pain invasion arc. My friend came over and told me he always watches that gay cartoon and that it was weird because it was in japanese with only english subtitles. I agreed that it was weird because it was japanese with english subtitles, but it was some pretty awesome action, so I thought it looked cool. At that time it just wasn't my thing so I didn't care much for it, and I just let it go and went about my day. A few days later I was just sitting at my desk and I was completely bored. I decided to give this Naruto a check and watched a few episodes. I was instantly addicted and I watched the anime from naruto shippuden episode 1 until the last episode in the pain invasion arc that had released(It took quite a while, like 2-4 vids a day). After I was done, I was so confused because I was just waiting for the new anime to release. After doing a bit of searching, I found Narutobase and I found out Naruto had a little comic that I could read(It was further along than the anime). I realized the manga had more details than the anime at this point so I went back and decided to read all the manga. By this point I noticed people actually talked about this, and since I couldn't really talk about this irl without people instantly labeling me a nerd and being dropped several social statuses, I decided to finally partake in these discussions. Of course at first I was a noob, but eventually I was molded into this humorous Genma wanking fool that you all adore!

Thats my story on how Naruto hooked me, if you have a story feel free to post it. If you read the entire thing thanks!

PS: Genma gang or die!

One of my friends on Xbox said that Lee vs. Kimimaro in episode 124 was awesome. I watched that fight. I started watching Naruto from then on.

Hmm, good question.

I was 12-13 when I saw the first scan of a Naruto manga. I was in my school library on those old, crappy Macintosh computers we had. I followed a few adds until I saw it on narutofan. It was really crappy looking, and it didn't look all that appealing really. It was just before the Hidan and Kakuzu arc. I disregarded it until I saw the dubbed version airing on tv. I watched it until the fillers came on and had to move on from that. Eventually I hunted down some old scans of Null (their site was defunct for a while, though) and read every single chapter they had in the span of two days. I ignored basic hygiene and schoolwork to complete it. But when I was done, I had this ridiculous hole left inside of me. Eventually I moved on to other series, but Naruto opened my eyes to that manga lol :snick:

Hm....In third grade I was flipping through channels and saw the Gaara vs Lee fight on Cartoon Network....Instantly hooked. I told all my friends about it but only two of them liked it. That was like 8 or so years ago, and a few years I forgot I liked it, but just recently I got back into it.


In fact, I didnt know there was a manga....until like last christmas when I got on here

Wow, it was such a while for me. I remember seeing it at my job, back when I was actually a member there, instead of an employee. Me and all the kids my age were all just hanging out in the games' room when the staff members there were trying to quiet everyone down for Naruto. Back then it didn't seem like a big deal to me, and then I saw the third episode. XD

I was hooked ever since.

Toonami, with Steve Blum (Oro's voice) as the robot host. :D
