    It's not that childish.>_> Not compared to Pokémon, which is also shōnen anime. I like it, not including all the fillers except Tea Country, Sea Country, and Konoha 11 arcs, and episode 101 (best episode ever.XD). Shippuden's okay, but the manga's MUCH better.

    =/ If there's no inbetween then I guess my only option is for me to say I hate it, even though I don't. I just couldn't get into it, that doesn't mean I hate it. It felt too...I don't know...Straightforward, like a lot of shōnen. I really like anime, or just about anything really, that involves a good amount of thought on the part of the viewer, not just some kid declaring how he wants to be a ninja and then going on missions (I'm sorry if any of you Naruto fans are on the verge of eating me for saying that right now, I only watched six episodes before stopping but that's really what it felt like).
    Oh and this is just a pet peeve of mine, but what kind of ninja wears bright orange, anyway? >>

    Hate it.

    So bland, predictable, and just plain boring. How it's so popular escapes my knowledge.

    I like it but I only read the manga though and don't watch the anime because of all the fillers

    Loath.

    Too much filler, mediocre voice actors, the fact that a lot of its action scenes rip off other action scenes move-for-more, and of course, the Narutards.

    I think it's kind of annoying. It gets boring after a while becuase they're just repeating some things in different episodes. So no, I don't like it.

    I disagree! I watch Naruto I hate the story, the characters (except Kakashi), the whole idea of the thing but I can't stop watching it.

    I hate it and love it but I can't really explain it.

    I use to love it, but now I hate it as it has so many episodes and fillers. I gave up on it.

    ^ Exactly what happened to me.
    The plot got so...confusing, I didn't really know what was going on anymore.
    Yes, older Kiba and Akamaru were freakin' awesome, but aside from that...it was almost like a Naruto version of Lucky Star.

    I'm still a 'fan'; I still buy the manga, and I will buy plushies if it's a character I like (oh how I adore plushies), but I'm not gonna consider being a Naruto character if I go to a comicon. Exception would be the ANBU costume I made, since that actually came out nice. xD

    At first it was just something to watch to waste time but then the fillers drove my away (expect there were some funny ones....) Thankfully they didn't last long and my friend got me to watch the newer eps. Still just something to watch though...

    I like the parts of the anime that were in the manga aka non-filler episodes. I refused to watch the fillers unless I'm shown that it's not just a waste of my time. The arch just after Sasuke left just made me want to kill everything I saw *eyetwitch*

    Shippuden is much better in my opinion, simpley because it's more complex and the plotlines are stronger too.

    Though how you can hate something for being popular is beyond me O_o

    It's too popular that I'm kinda...sick of it. I don't hate it with a passion though.

    I hate it with every inch of my body. I used to think it was cool. Then...fillers...fillers...friend becoming OBSESSED with it. And then....I hate it.

    I don't like Naruto.

    Death Note, Full Metal Alchemist, Code Geass, Bleach, Inuyasha, and Samurai Champloo, and Ghost in a Shell are my favorites.

    Well, if the fillers didn't happen, I would've liked it.

    Not into Naruto; I watched the first six episodes and lost intrest pretty quickly. I heard it picks up though, but there's 200 some-odd episodes to catch up on and I'm really not willing to devote my time to that.

    But I love Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, .hack//SIGN, Death Note, Gundam SEED, and probably a few others I'm forgetting. =3
