Certified childhood classic in my case, but kinda stopped before finishing and didn't pick it up again.

Lmao.. since replied in the middle of the night before going to sleep I didn't notice that this is a Naruto thread. 🤐😂💀

Well, my reply in the spoiler tag is my previous reply, but it's kinda improper for this thread. I thought it's Dragonball related at first. 😅💀

So my real reply is around 13-14 years.

2005 or 2006, caught up during Bee and Kisame fight, followed weekly even with filler till Madara epic debut, then moved to manga cause of fillers and read it weekly till it ended. Felt a black hole in my heart when I read the last chapter back in 2014 or 2015, a 10 years journey of mine was done.

My start with Naruto was in 2005 when it aired on Toonami. I watched the anime and read the manga weekly for over a decade until their ends. To say the series had an impact on me would be an understatement.

The Big 3 were what made me realize what anime actually was as a child. I watched tons of other anime on TV like DBZ, Sailor Moon, Yu Yu Hakusho, Gundam Wing, Cowboy Bebop, Rurouni Kenshin, Shaman King and many others. I could tell they were very different from regular American cartoons, but I was too young for it to click in my head. Thus, One Piece and Naruto were my gateway anime. Bleach came a little later, but I'm equally nostalgic for it nonetheless.

Naruto was my first anime
I watched it during 2013-2015 (3-5 ep a month or so) and I started directly from Shippuden. I reached about 100 ep then was unable to find any other ep.
then in 2017-18 I started Naruto(og) and during that time only I finished it.

Around 2004 i think. Childhood classic. Although I didn't really like Naruto so much then (loved One Piece tho), so after a 100 episodes or so, I've put on hold untill a few years ago.

In 2021, back when i had no means of entertainment during quarantine and anime started growing relatively popular in my country.. many of my friends started watching animes and told me to watch them as well.. so one day I decided to pick one up and chose Naruto cuz I've heard about it back when i was a kid.. and damn this shit was good! glad to have this as my first anime :) ("one of my first" if i count that dbz shit I used to watch in 2015)

well I had started it on March 2022
Initially I felt it was kind of boring due to the animation cuz I had watched DS that time so I dropped it and again started after 3 moths and when I had finished it on March 2023, I was in tears ✨✨

This.

And I remember when it changed to DB subs and I watched the filler weekly until Shippuden. That was a painful, painful time, 100 consecutive filler episodes.

I was running around playing Naruto years before I properly watched it. One-off episodes on Toonami were enough to spark a love for the series and for anime that continues to this day :)

I used to watch episodes occasionally on TV when I was younger, but really from episode 1 onwards about 3 years ago.

It was while covid 19 was really spreading and I was still a student at the time, the summer holidays were brought forward + extended and we were all in lockdown, I had nothing to do for 7 weeks, watched Naruto during that time.

I never had any experience with Naruto until I started it in 2016 with no particular reason more than "I'll probably like this".
I liked it a lot, but the massive fillers made me don't finish it until 2019.
Then I started Shippuden but absolutely hate the pace, so I didn't start it seriously until 2021. I haven't finished it yet, but now I'm watching it regularly.

Like July 2019. I was pretty bored on a hot summer day and I was like “I’ve never actually watched Naruto”

So I did.
