quote: WOW, one and a half years since I'm a member of the Cafe, and now, someone talks about Naruto.It seems word of mouth has finally paid off.BTW Fuchikoma, Naruto was originally going to be about samurai, then at the last minute, turned to the ninja-based phenomenon it fully deservedly is today.
Well we did talk about Naruto... when it debuted almost 3 years ago. I seem to recall making a a thread of the 5 best anime of 2002, with Naruto being my favorite to come out that year, even over GITS:SAC... which is funny since my name is Fuchikoma afterall. So I guess by time you showed up a year and a half ago... we were pretty much done talking about Naruto... although when Rock Lee returned in the manga I seem to remember a couple threads on that... oh and we've had a member here named Naruto for about 4 years I'd say.
Also... no... Naruto was never based on Samurai. Kishimoto did do a samurai manga while he was in art school though. The original Naruto one shot that ran in Akamaru Jump was based on magic... although Naruto does do a version of his Sexy no Jutsu... if you don't believe me, you can download a scanlation from the Naruto fanbook HERE
About Naruto being popular today... well that's thanks to bit torrent letting every kid with a computer download free anime... back in my day we got our fansubs from usenet damnit! and before divx we had to watch crumby third generation vhs copies...

Thanks Fuchikoma, actually I know about the one-shot manga pilot, and I know about the fact that a long-time member of the Cafe is called Naruto.I'm surprised cause I've been a fan for a whole year, and I fell in love with it from the very first episode.Now, I follow both the manga and the anime, and I sure as hell don't regret following this one franchise only, cause it's the only one worth following. BTW, did you know that at long last, the first Naruto movie will finally be out on DVD on Thursday?I so can't wait to see and enjoy this one. And with the imminent release of the very first movie, I give you my 500th post.Peace.
There is a difference between doing it FIRST and doing it RIGHT.

quote: VHS what is that?![](http://www.mmcafe.com/cgi-bin/forums/graphics/emoticons/2ch_syoboon.gif)
Man , if only I had known about bit torrent just a few months earlier I would have gotten Naruto as a DivX file...
Um, if you're serious, VHS is video tape, the black box shaped variety.
And what did knowing BitTorrent months ago have to do with getting Naruto fansubs, you still can now..!
wat the? even a 10 yr old kid knows wat a vhs is... neway, about bleach, i've watched it since it started, it has a good story but: a) pacing is slow b) too wholesome c)jap anime cliche syndrome. other than that its okay.
naruto, i'll start watching it maybe after the whole series ends. dun want to download ep 1 to 131 and going..
