I finally watched Naruto for the first time

[Methodical]

I've been hearing this argument for years about Dragon Ball Z vs Naruto and I was like somebody would've picked Naruto over DBZ and I was at them for picking Naruto over DBZ and of course I was biased and a huge fan of DBZ cause I haven't seen Naruto before.

So, 3 days go...I finally have decided to watch Naruto and I was like and . Now, I'm on 58 episode so far.

Now, I can see why somebody prefer Naruto over DBZ........I hate to say it.....I think Naruto has a more deep emotional story line and the characters as well as their purpose are very complex which makes it all better that had you and

Best thing about watching a anime when its already almost finished is when you cud run them marathons and watch all the episodes in like a week not having to wait for another episode to drop

did that for bleach, naruto, one piece and death note

Co-sign. Bleach is next after I'm done with Naruto.

I love Crunchyroll which I'm wathcing on Xbox. I don't think Death Note is on Crunchyroll.

Crunchyroll has many animes.

Oh okay...kinda like Dragon Ball GT..?

its WAYYYYYYYY better than GT. the manga didnt have it as a seperate series but the anime did. its just part 2 of the story.

honestly Naruto and DBZ follow the same paths. if part one is Dragonball, Part 2 is DBZ.

once again part 2 is legit.

Without going into spoilers about what happens, there's a timeskip of a couple years.

So in Shippuden, Naruto and co. are all 16-17 years old and the story gets more serious.


It's nothing like GT though, it was written by the creator and intended from the start.

 

[SuikodenII]

Shippudden must be Japanese for flashback, cause that's all they show

After the Sasuke/Ruto fight.......it goes down hill with filler and non-filler being a chore to watch

Plot holes become grand kanyons........trust me, you wanna see something trill, watch Rainbow

 

[cfountain]

They both ended up sharing the same flaws

DBZ could have done much more with the story and as Naruto is reaching the end(the manga, tho it seems Kishi has more he wants to do) its screaming wasted potential too.

gonna put it in spoilers. nothing major but just for those that dont want to know what happens once Part 2 starts but it just grinds my gears

Spoiler

Naruto really never expanding his offensive arsenal was so disappointing. the training with Jiraiya was really for nothing and learning he has a wind element affinity lead to nothing but another Rasengan which he does nothing but spam now. Sage Mode got thrown to the side too outside of a few occasions. Beast Mode, Clones and Rasengans is all he has at this point. I was really expecting him to come with more in the second part.

Shippuden>DBZ>Naruto>>>> GT for me.
GT is terrible and highlights the franchises flaws more than anything.

@SuikodenII That happens with all these series. They have to let the manga breathe.
