Where I stand in the Naruto fandom

I remember when Naruto first came to Cartoon Network. I never really got into it and to be honest, that's a missed opportunity I'll always regret. I started watching Naruto around the same time as I did Bleach in high school and when I got the Internet at home, I began watching two episodes every Saturday along with Bleach, One Piece, and Fairy Tail.

I honestly never expected to fall in love with the anime as much as I have. There's just something about that's so epic. Sure it has a lot of filler but even that's cool enough to see most of the time. I just finished the original series and am watching Shippuuden. I'm at episode 19.

I have too many favorite characters to count including Naruto himself for being a more realistic anime hero. Then there's Rock Lee for his sheer determination, Shino for his awesome beetles and Shikamaru foe being a lazy badass. I also look forward to seeing the Akatsuki in action as I watch Shippuuden.

If you're a fellow Naruto fan, I'd love to have a chat!
