When did you start regurarly reading the Naruto manga on a weekly basis

[Ansatsuken]

The time Naruto start his SM training and Sasuke fought with KB

 

[Chikombo]

I started with the Anime eventually I gave up and gave in to the Manga at the Pain Arc (in the manga).

 

[Joon]

Near the beginning of Shippuden so around 245. I watch all Part 1 Anime only. I was searching for the anime online and saw the manga. That's when I decided to read.

This feels like one of those group sessions where everyone is sharing when they first started reading the manga, like it was some type of addiction and everyone has to introduce themselves and say a few words to the rest xd

But fine, I'll play along so let's see... *Stands up, clears my throat*

My name is Michael, nice to meet you all...

My addiction started with watching the anime in and around late 2008 I believe, until I caught up to it in 2009 at some point. The latest episode that had arrived was the cliffhanger as to whether Asuma would die or not, and not wanting to wait a whole week to find out, I gave in to the desire to read the manga. So I sat through the remaining chapters from that point onward almost in one sitting, reading from Asuma's death until the point where the manga had progressed, which was just as the Pain fight in Konoha had ended and Naruto was regarded as a hero (so I basically got Asuma, Hidan, Kakuzu, Deidara, Itachi, Jiraiya and Pain/Nagato's deaths in one night). Joined NB shortly after at the end of 2009 and read (and watched) Naruto weekly from there on until the end, although I did stop watching the anime just as the 4th Great Ninja War began in 2010 and only picked it up again in 2014 when the manga ended to get my weekly Naruto fix, which to some extent happened because of my Fanfiction writing on the Base I reckon, which sort of became a substitute to my anime desire. Also got most of the Ultimate Ninja Storm Games, but I guess that's a different story, eh?

So there's that...

I started reading it weekly around when Sasuke fought Danzo. Afterwards I stopped for a while, started rereading at the revival of the past Hokages, and stopped again. Eventually I reread most of what I missed.

On chapter 600 Obito and Madara

 

[-Shiro-]

i found the manga at the public library, it was parts of the pain arc, it caught my intrest, keep in mind i stopped watching naruto up until then, but then madara came back to life and it all went down hill from their, he was fine as an edo but when he broke out himself, it was all ass pull until the end

I read some of the manga in my public library too. tbh my experience with Naruto has been quite messy.

I remember reading that. When the chapter came out, the base went into a shit storm. You remember when Minato did that Sakura-Kishina parallel?

During the start of the war

 

[Darth AniCetuS]

After Part 1 ended.

 

[awesomeseimei]

From chapter 366, during the search for Itachi, when Naruto met him in the forest. I remember it pretty well.

 

[SenseiSama]

Sasuke solos

 

[Sonzumaki]

When I first got into Naruto like in 2009, the anime was around the part where Sasuke "killed" Orochimaru, I watched that until Itachi's death and then caught up via the manga and read it consistently from the Kage Summit up to when the War started, but then dropped it (I hated the War arc). I picked it back up when Madara was revived, and read it weekly all the way up to the finale.

 

[elitenoob94]

Can't really remember. I watched anime solely all the way up until early P2, then I picked up on the manga whilst I was still watching the anime.

I never read P1. Never cared to. I was and still am more of an anime type of dude.

[Floydical]

I started watching the subbed anime once the dubbed was cancelled on CN. They were on roughly shippuden episode 100 around that time. After catching up on the subbed anime a month or 2 later, I picked up the manga. The manga was just finishing with the Pain arc when I was caught up. So everything after Pain's defeat I was reading on a weekly basis.

Btw, there's no Mich-eal around the Base as far as I know, lol.
