My cousins persuaded me to have a look. I was afraid that it would be too many episodes for me, but after finishing, I do not regret it

I started Naruto on August 9th 2 years ago 
My sister begged me to check it out few day ago I think 

And I did, and it's one of the best experience I've ever had 😁😁😁

Tell me your story

I started it in late or mid 2019

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.

quite disturbing how there are people complaining about fillers, NOW.

I intended to watch every last of them since I've never ever skip a chapter, but I ultimately made an exception there.

Fillers are still there.

I was around 10 years old. When it originally came out in Japan, I was watching it week after week in the early 2000s. I think 2002 was when it began, I think...
My older brother would come back home from college in the summer and would download the episodes from a website.

I was already into anime since the 90s in Mexico as a kid. They would air Dragon Ball, Saint Seiya, Ranma, Evangelion, Sailor Moon, Captain Tsubasa, etc

Moved to the US. Would watch Toonami and their lineup of anime every day. Then, I watched subtitled anime in the weekends with my older and younger brother.

Honestly, Naruto is a good show. It's not amazing, but I enjoyed it. Man, those fillers back in the day were brutal... Then Shippuden came out and got to the point where Madara did the Moon Genjitsu, and it went into fillers... Still haven't finished. Maybe one day... πŸ˜€

I started Naruto when it first aired on Cartoon Network. It was 2008 I think. When I saw the first promo of CN I decided then that I am watching this show.

Around 2008 on Teletoon at Night. Naruto and Sasuke were fighting each other on the hospital's roof. Picked up the manga, read until that point, and kept following it on TV until it ended.

I thinkkk I started when I was around 10 years old. Watched every episode, filler and all. I stopped watching after I got a little into Shippuden though. It just wasn't hooking me.

Been watching since childhood, I remember they used to show it on Cartoon Network, and even Shippuden on Disney XD. Then after I discovered Crunchyroll I watched the rest there.

I spared your life on a whim, nothing more.

When I was little, late elementary years, me and my friends would play in the computer lab during recess every day because there was nothing else to do during recess unless you had a ball. And one day a dragon ball x Naruto crossover fishing game came out on one of the flash sites we played on. My friends were all obsessed because they've all either seen dragon ball or Naruto. My dad loves dragon ball but it was never my forte, and I had never heard of naruto so I didn't bother and let my friends have their fun while I played on my own. But a couple of my friends kept on begging me to watch Naruto, and about a week later Netflix purchased rights to Naruto so naturally I started watching and got obsessed.

A bit rambling, sorry:

I remember watching the very first English Dubbed in 2005. Pokemon and Yugioh were my first, but Naruto was when I REALLY started differentiating between cartoon and anime. Around the same time, I was sneaking around watching DVR recordings of Inuyasha (they cursed!) and Bleach (Bad words! Ichigo is gonna wake up my mom!).

After that, I watched Naruto religiously until they took a strange break (in my head, just a recap episode) during the Gaara-Naruto fight after the Chuunin exams. That also happened to be the one episode that I finally convinced my brother to watch with me. "It's not usually like this!" Either they did take a break from airing, life got in the way, or my embarrassment made me take a break.

Then I remember catching up via some sketchy video sites until 100 and 101 (which I watched many, many times in both languages), switched to Japanese, and discovered the manga (and the mighty world of subbed anime).

Since then I've dived head first into the fandom with made-up characters, clans, jutsu, and needlessly elaborate backstories. I roleplayed and wrote and fell in love with the world and all the opportunities it presented.

Then, I rage quit when Hinata confessed. Not the confession, but what happened afterward...but I can go on and on about just that for a very long time. Lol.

I kept up with the manga and storyline after that (pretty unofficially), but finally put it down to get over my sudden Hinata anger. I heard the manga ended a couple months after it did, but still have both hands in OC's even now. :)


TLDR; I started in 2005 and haven't stopped since...except for that one time....and the other time with the name we shall not mention.

Same. Back then, fansub speed was perceived different than it is now.

When I was younger I watched some episodes that were shown on TV here in Brazil, but it wasn't linear at all. When I met my fiancée, she insisted a lot that I give it a chance... sometime in 2022 I started watching it and I really liked it.
