To preface this it's been 10 years so nothing in here can be spoiled.
I feel somewhat saddened by the fact that my favorite childhood anime is coming to an end, that being Naruto. I remember first being introduced to Naruto on Cartoon Network back when it was the third iteration of T.O.M. and Toonami. It's hard to believe that after nearly 10 years this anime is finally ending. While I'm both extremely happy about finally seeing the ending to this, it's also kind of bitter sweet given that I've spent literally years of my life watching and rewatching and rereading whatever I could get my hands on. I mean I still find myself on occasion starting at episode 1 of Naruto and watching all 220 episodes before moving onto Shippuden. By now I've probably seen the entirety of both seasons in both Japanese and English at least 3 times. Nothing was more frustrating than waiting for the English dub to catch up to it's Japanese counterpart (let's not argue about which is better I like all things Naruto).
Anybody else a fan of this awesomely repetitive anime where sadly some of the coolest fights end because of the talk-no-justu, where the constant "BELIEVE IT!"s in the dubbed anime threatened to make you jump off a cliff, and surprisingly in a world full of violence the main character has only ever killed a single person? For me Naruto has been the most frustrating and exciting thing to look forward to every week since Shippuden started showing up on Crunchyroll.
