It really isn't that bad... I like the action and the story and twists are interesting.

I follow Naruto for the supporting cast mostly.
I mean, my favorite character, Rock Lee, has been screwed over again and again. He's totally awesome and yet, they always put him against people who are uber. Garra, for example. Now why in the **** did you have to waste Lee's fight like that. You could've put Temari against Lee and have Lee whip her horribly. Garra could have fought Tenten and killed her. Nobody would have cared, it's Tenten after all.
I'm getting fed up with this Shippuden junk though. Naruto can go into crazy demon-fox doom mode and still be utterly and totally owned. Sakura got better, and Sasuke is still the emo king. Losing intrest in watching the same things happen over and over with Naruto. He gets stronger by a riduculous degree and still gets beaten down. And why didn't any of the other Konoha ninja besides Naruto and Sakura get any better? Shikamaru is a Jonin and aparantly still can't fight worth horse droppings. Ah, I stopped caring a long time ago.

Ah, I stopped caring a long time ago. hehe later You will see Naruto becomes absolute uber ownzor king XD and Shika owns some invincible atatsuki members (arrg spelling) Rasengan SHURICAN!!!! *cuts enemy to pieces and wind needles sever the chakra points...*

Yet Naruto still is the suckiest character in the show. Poor character development(all of it involves him shouting SASOOOKAY) and so on. Shika is good, starts smoking, teaches kids that when a parental figure/mentor dies, you have to start smoking.
Also.
Even Sakura could kill those "invincible" Akatsuki members. They're not all cracked up to be if some low-rank punks can kill them.
Stupid stupid plot.

No they had an Akatsuki that couldn't be harmed because of some curse he had that every time damage was supposed to be inflicted to him it instead was inflicted on the attacker. I don't know about Naruto sucking. Where I am at he is doing great since has a move that litterally ownz, but meh w/e. Opinions are opinions. If you don't like the show then just say so and don't post here again, it isn't that hard.

Remind me, when has Shikamaru ever won a REAL fight without help? That sound ninja during the chunnin exams dosen't count, sakura could have beaten her.

But she didn't.
The whole thing about Shikamaru is that he's a brilliant tactician. Him winning withOUT help would be retarded, because that's not how he acts. He places people in place, plans ahead, and kills his opponents through that.
If he did stuff by himself, then he would be Naruto.

Which reminds me, Naruto needs to teach Shika kage bunshin for the sake of it.......

Meh.
Like said, Kage Bunshin is a good jutsu for only those with high amounts of chakra. From what I've seen, Shika doesn't have too much of it to make good use of Kage Bunshin.
Then again.
Shounen.

Yeah, I know, but he shouldn't be jonin rank without any real combat skills.

Without any... he has combat skills. He is all about making traps that make his enemy DIE. Like that immortal guy. He's just not the sort of guy who goes melee too often, because that's not his field. I'm starting to hate myself for talking about Naruto so I'll make this short.
When he fought that flute-chick, he did show combat skills along with his jutsus/EVIL PLANNING. The only battle where I think he didn't use any combat skills, was when he fought that Sound chick.

You know what, I don't care enough to keep arguing about this either. I'm just going to leave this alone and be done with it. You win Iceberg.

I go away for 5 minutes and you guys spoil EVERYTHING, start making fun of DBZ, the BEST anime ever, and...AND insult Naruto. Grow up people. And man, try reading through 4 pages of crap...er...posts... yeah posts. Not easy.
On topic: NARUTO'S FREAKING AWESOME!!! The last 2 (3) episodes were freaking amazing. Sure 40-41 was mostly light show to keep the viewers distracted from noticing the fact that they're not progressing the story, it was still a piece of amazing light show.

I find it amusing that you tell us to go grow up, and say that DBZ is the best anime ever.
The reason I make fun of Naruto is because its so generic, the anime episodes, while sometimes having some decent fights, drags the fights on and on for several episodes(the ep where Kyuubito fights Orochimaru had, what, 84 lines of conversation, and there were like.. 10, maybe 12 attacks that they threw against eachother), and of course, the series might as well be renamed Sasuke because the focus has shifted towards him more and more.
Naruto is more like that sidekick character who sometimes does something these days.
To call DBZ the best animu ever, I guess you have either never seen titles such as Akagi or Kaiji, which are the best things to come out in this past year for the MINDCRUSH and "I have no idea what the hell is going on" they have going on, as well a ZAWA ZAWA~.
So yeah. You make fun of me because I take things seriously on the Internet(lawl), I make fun of you and your preferred series because you are so generic. Shounen-watcher. And so on.
Shall we dance some more, or is this enough?

Heh heh heh. You know Iceberg, It's fun watching you school people. But anywho, Ice is right. Naruto is a pretty generic show. I like just for the few good fights and the supporting cast. The good thing is, we haven't had to watch that flashback about Sasuke's family in a while, which is good. Man oh man that was annoying.
But I laugh at Naruto. He's got uber demon power, and still can't acomplish anything. I like to wonder about what would happen if you gave a different character the Kyuubi. Like Rock Lee for example. Or Shikamaru.
