The only problem with reviews is that they only show the opinion of others... in this review, I will leave it to you whether or not you like the manga better than the anime or vice versa Overall, I think this anime is nicely put and very good and enjoyable -- however, I think you need quite a patience to watch all those episodes and I hope it doesn't keep on going for a long time (like Bleach) without getting anywhere (opinion).


Storyline: The storyline is like a save the world, protect your friends and family type of thing. I found the "Naruto" series to be quite enjoyable with adventures and jokes and stuff like that (which was entertaining) -- however, Shippuden is different and has a much more serious perspective -- the action is not jumbled too much with adventure and comedy (which I really like). The manga is more enjoyable and is more "fun-ish" (I don't know how else to put it) and of course this is just my opinion. I leave it up to you to decide which one you like.

Music: The music is really good and has always been excellent! I find the music in this anime to be superior to other anime. The opening themes and ending themes are very interesting -- and unlike what I do to other anime, in Naruto Shippuden + Naruto, I don't skip the theme songs or ending themes That's a great thing! Also, the music in this anime always comes in the right time -- for example: suspenseful music during a thrilling scene -- and that is also a good thing!

Characters: The characters in this anime are interesting and you never know what they are thinking -- which shows a type of realism in life. I think some characters' potentials are not shown to the biggest extent in this show. Characters also have a lot of feeling put into them (and like I said before, it is realistic, and that is what I like).

Animation: The drawing style in the manga is superior! And the way they have made it in this anime is great! I am happy with the way the animations have turned out. The use of appropriate colors and the actions of the characters are fit very well in the animation.

Now I leave it up to you whether or not you want to watch it based on my review :)

A fun based anime! Though there are some blood and mild violence. Its about a young boy trying to be the head of a village (Hokage) but still has a long way to go. Watch or read the season 1, Naruto!~
I hope this was useful.....
Maybe not.......

its ASSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEEE RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

before i get to my point i would like to say something about naruto.naruto has been on for many years and it is a very popular anime,it is very gory at time yet joyful.
this anime over all is very great,everyone should read the manga or watch the show's.i mean come on don't you like crazy-awesome anime that are packed with continuousaction?well of course!not many people apreciate it though.
The story line is 5 stars. like i said before it is pascked with continueous action and i just think it's awesome!
Omg,i just love the music,it has great lyrics and a good beat!when i listen to it i just make's me wanna dance!most anime keep the same theme song,but this one has many different songs that are very good and very catchy.
The character's are amazing some are mean,funny,coll,creapy weird and annoying. i dont like judgeing them because they each have their own personalites which make's them different from each other for example sasuke uchiha hade one goal in life and that was to avenge his clan. itachi uchiha,his brother lead him into that goal but when sasuke finaly kill's his brouther for what he has done which was he assassinated his own clan,sasuke could not take it and i dont blame him!
last but no least the animation was teriffac and i give all my rateing's five star's!

this anime is the first and best one i have seen. it's exciting and funny.... by brief it's awesome.

the story: Wonderful and interesting and imaginative in some things, and realistic in other things.
the music: am always listen to naruto's songs, and download them. and all of them are wonderful. like: kikyou, sengunbanba and hisou..... i like them all.
characters: it's hard to chose one of them because all of them are awesome, some of them are cool and funny and strong. when you will chose your favorite, you will chose more than 1, i have 3.

that what i can tell u

it really awesoooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeeemmmmmmmme awwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaawwwwwwwwwwwesssooooooooooome its reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeesssssssssooooooooooooooooooome.

I've watched Naruto Shippuuden since it started and I loved it from the beginning! All the characters are awesome (especially Sasuke!), and the story always interest me, even the fillers! Naruto Shippuuden is better than the original Naruto too. I liked that the characters are more mature but are still the same people we love! I'll defiantly watch this to the end!

Ok,i strongly think that naruto is the best anime you can find it has aton of action aspecaily in the new sereis,the naruto shippuden.when i wtach it i can't wait to know what is gonna happen next!my fav character's are Naruto,Sasuke,Gaara,Sai and Kankuro! we all know about naruto and sasuke have been going at it for years and we all know about Gaara and kankuro but i dont think people give enough credit for some of the new character's like Sai! yes Sai is mysterious and yes his real mission was to assasinate naruto and sasuke,but i still think he is a very cool character and my opinion stands!

Naruto is a preety good anime. Sometimes it's overrated sometime underrated. It has a fine stroryline, fitting music, great characters, and acceptional animation.

Storyline
Well the main storyline of original Naruto series was becoming the hokage and all, but the Shippuden storyline is completly different. The storyline is all like save Sasuke, he was my best friend, Sakura wants him back he'll bring him back, but WHY. Sasuke doesn't wanna come back he wanted to kill his brother, he did that, he then join akatsuki so that he can later destroy konoha elders. And I'm asking why does Naruto want to take him back, it's against his will. Is he gonna kill him or something and then bring back the corpse. I mean Naruto is being very stupid. I mean this would make much more sense if Sasuke was kidnaped or something and was a girl.
Otherwise i like Naruto Shippuden because there is much more action and it consist in more the just one storyline. Like Tobi's plan to take over the world and other Akatsuki characters' plans, Sasuke's plan, Team Taka stuff, other villige's plans and stuff like that. Basicly that's what keeps thing acciting, otherwise the anime would suck.

Music
Yeah the music is realy good, but mostly the themes. For every scene there is right music to match. But I don't realy like the openings and endings. I gotta say some of them are quite good but some a just kinda boring. And all more that I can say about the music is that it's realy original and catchy, which gets you to know when you hear some Naruto music that it's from Naruto.

Characters
Ah yes, the characters, my favorite part. Characters in Naruto are realy original, realistic, and feel like they're a real person. They would have a perfect reaction in any situation you could think off. The proof of this are all the online Naruto parodies on YouTube and other sites. The characters are built for any situation nad they all have a parodical comedy side. They allways inspire me to make simular characters in an own comedy serial or temp me to make parodies which I've done many times. Each character has a special personality, is unique, has a background story or a goal. Naruto characters are one of the things that keep the anime going.

Animation
Well all that I can say about the animation is that it rocks. All though the manga drawing style is way better it's more detailed and makes everything look much better. But sense the Kakuzu and Hidan Arc. came in the anime the animation style in fighting hes changed to look much more advanced, which is working realy fantastic.

And this is my opinion of Naruto Shippuden which all together gives a rate of 4.5. Which means that this anime is realy awesome, not perfect because of the story complications, but still great enough to be worth watching.
