pfft. Jaraiya didn't die... *In denial*
a one hour episode which took place in two chapters... other episodes (before shippuden) would use like 3 chapters for one half hour episode (and it eventually caught up to the manga, so fillers where used.)
so, 15 mins of my time was streched to an hour... I want my hour back.
They still haven't even revived Gaara yet! I swear... they should have already told us who the Akatsuki leader is in the anime.. hell, Jaraiya is already about to fight him in the manga. Next chapter (tomorrow) he will be.
I'm not going to watch the anime anymore, its a waste of my time, I'm gonna watch it all one year from now, maybe by then they'll have released the Akatsuki Leader's name...
Seriously, the anime is so slow paced, its not even funny.
20 minutes of that hour episode was angle shots of people's faces. I'd prefer fillers then this crap.
I'd be burning Naruto at the stake if it wasn't for the awesome manga.
Here's a little glimpse of how slow the anime is.
3 months ago. I read 20 chapters of the manga, ahead of the anime. (up to gaara's death and revival) and it still hasn't happened.
Still.
20 chapters.
Thats pathetic.
Most people who have read the manga would agree that fillers where better then Shippuden.
Naruto Manga >>>>>>>> Naruto Anime
Everyone still watching the anime, give the manga a try, I'll be amazed if you go back. (Still watch the anime, but read the manga too at least, fight sences are all you have to look forward to in the anime)
Besides, a manga chapter comes out ever week.. while we wait almost a month in between animes....
[/rant]
In case you didn't read my huge rant.
MANGA > ANIME
Main points:
Manga: Comes out every week
Anime: Comes out every second/third week
Manga: Fast paced
Anime: Slower then a snail. It doesn't have a pace.
I'd have to somewhat agree with you there. I mean in the Shippuden episodes 42-43 I kept wanting to see Spoiler: (hover to reveal the text)
Because the shippuden anime keeps making sobby, gaspy, face-shots and dragging out explosions and birds flying across the sky it pisses me off. I mean i still watch it for the action and color, but there are moments where i wanna get in the show and just kill everyone! (though naruto would probably kill me...-_-')And where I disagree with you is with the fillers. I HATED how they drew the characters in the fillers and the story lines sucked most of the time. It was like like they didn't try at all. I would love to see the people who illustrated the big sasuke vs Naruto (ep.133) fight do all the scenes.
My rant=complete ^_^
Now there are so many things wrong with that, I just don't know where to begin! First, parents are supposed to instill in us "Don't judge a book by its cover." Well she-a parent-sees those ratings and maybe an episode or two and immediately classifies it as "No Good". She has absolutely no clue about its background, meaning, story-line, goals for the character or anything!! She has no clue about Gaara and Naruto's "friendship" that extends well beyond the Shippuden series. SHE HAS NO CLUE AND ITS PISSIN' ME OFF!!! Now, i don't know her reasons for writing this article, but i will take it up with her. I want to make sure a horrible mistake like this never happens again. Trust and Friendship are still huge assets, an example: Naruto's determination to save Sasuke. She doesn't know their past of loneliness, or their motives for their actions, but yet she still gives it a "NO". I mean yes there are some slightly inappropriate scenes (mostly based around Naruto and Jiraiya) but what show doesn't! I mean even Spongebob has some...strange moments. And violence...c'mon lady this Series is made just for that. What she has to realize is that there are much worse things than shows like this, but she chooses this because of some uptight and paranoid mothers' opinions! Those parents can't shelter their child for ever. She doesn't even know that the version aired on Cartoon Network is dummed-down just for the little kids! And this is definitely NOT a new series(see first line) which proves just how much she knows!! She doesn't see the changes and lessons learned by this awesome Anime. There are so many more things I would like to say, but my anger and rage is not letting me process them into words. So my rant ends here and hopefully a simple-minded fool will not make the same mistake.













rant ~rep~but still it was prob just some 7th grader trying to get an A for Debate.

WHAT!??! someone needs to throw a shoe at her! i mean nowadays parents dont even care what their kids watch as long as they dont catch them watchin porn.. ITS A FRICKIN OUTRAGE THAT SOMEONE CAN SAY THAT! the show had already been "dumbed down" as you said so the kids can watch but too much violence? oh come on! then they should've cancelled the Power Rangers years ago if they had a problem with violence, and if theres still a problem put it on adult swim i dont mind watchin it uncut, its better that way
i still can't stop laughing at my friend cause he used to like that show
the flew up in the air like 50m after a punch
and where were all those sparks coming from?
edit: this edit is to turn this convo back to the original intent of naruto, that and it is a valid question

anyone know when shippuden episode 44 will be coming out? I want more 4 tails pwnage!!!

I'm glad someone shares the same passion for naruto ^_^ And yep i'd agree, I'd rather watch it uncut, too.
