Set recording devices to uhm record! Believe it! Cartoon Network is starting Naruto at 2 30 pm New Years Eve and is going well into the night. See, every once in a while even CN does something good.

Heh too bad nothing really good has happened yet =/...don't think their even at the exam =(...

Plus Naruto's voice actor makes me gag...other than that it is great heh..

They're in the Bridge Builder story...
I'm not especially impressed with the series yet, it does get better?

Lots better....just wait till they take ya past the Bridge Builder story .

Better as in story but esp battles...

Well, that's something. Does Sakura get any less worthless? Cause damn, I didn't realize it was possible to screw up a pink-haired schoolgirl ninja that badly.

She is pretty much worthless :P...think in like 20 maybe less episodes is my fav fight scene .

Jeez now i know how stalk feels lol...

Sakura is the chick Shinji of ninja. Totally worthless.

Come on now, she's not THAT worthless.

CN has diced, sliced ,and watered it down to make it a kids show.

She is that worthless :P...

Heh, this "Sakura is worthless" stuff makes me laugh. *waiting patiently for filler to end*

As for whether or not Naruto gets better, the Naruto fight you're about to see in the bridge against Haku is about the best it gets, disregarding the Rock Lee fight.

In terms of story, it stays somewhat okay.. decent for a shounen, at least.

Sakura makes for good hentai fan drawings!

So that gives me something to look forward to circa 2010, if CN doesn't run very many reruns. Good thing I've got a Tivo.

Oh well, for the next couple months anyway I can squint a bit and pretend Motoko Kusangi has shown up a couple hours early for her GitS gig and is busy kicking ass and not for a moment fawning over any brooding pretty boys.

Well i was saying atm she is very worthless...didnt want to give anything away :P...

And I think Rock Lee fight was about the best as it gets....maybe until...nm .

Episode 34.

It was that memorable.

Sakura is the complete poster child for useless character. Naruto doesn't have any non-combatant main characters like most anime, so they made of the so-called fighters absolutely suck.

But yeah, by the end of today one of the better fights in the show will have been shown.

never watched the dub but just saw this and turned it on to check it out... man this is bad. ^_^

That kind of sucked guys. I want 2 hours of my life back.

What two hours did you watch? The last two? And you thought it sucked? Oh well, guess you're just hopelessly insane.

Two hours of dubbed Naruto would have to be the best 4 episodes in a row to be worth watching. Which it wasn't. So it did indeed suck.

Wow. Watching Naruto dubbed is...odd. It's just not the same if he's not going, "Ano sa, ano sa!" all the time.

Im waiting for the DvD so i can pick not to hear it english dubbed :P...

Oh and the awesomeness of all episodes has to be when they hit the exams...you will know when :P.

It was ok, but it hardcore reminded me of why I almost always hate anime on TV. They put so much filler crap into the beginning and end you only get 15 real minutes of the episode. That's probably one of the big reasons I've never really gotten into it.

Then you're watching the wrong shows...? It's not as though it's a problem that plagues all of anime. Just the ones you watch.

Which is why I almost never watch it, and said, on tv.

This thread has turned into one long "the three naruto fans on the board swear to god this show is better than it looks" to everyone else.

What would that be?

Robot Chicken of course!

Oh yea, and some other shows they brought back, Family Person and Furtureramamamama I think.

I find Harvey Birdman to be borderline hysterical also.

And FMA and GITS are decent animes.

Birdman is quite possibly the funniest thing ever animated

When will i be recognized with a marathon of my show on cn? Thats all I ask.

When they decide to do a marathon of complete crap?

Oh wait, they already did a 12oz Mouse marathon!
