Gaara of the Desert: [mentally speaking to his 'mother' during the Chunnin Tournament]
[fansub version]
Gaara of the Desert: Yeah... I'm going to tear him apart. Then drag it out... What, you ask? The insides, of course. A lot comes out, right?
[chuckles]
Gaara of the Desert: I'll give them all to you. I'm always a good boy. Yes, let's do it. Mom, I'll watch.

Unlike any Anime I have ever seen...Believe It!, 14 May 2006
9/10
Author: beccad90 from Scottsdale, Arizona, United States

Overview:

Plot: Good

Characters: Excellent

Music: Great

Animation:Great

Dubbing: Good

Reasons to watch: Naruto Freakin' Rocks! The action, animation and everything are stunning! The characters are so likable. I like the concept of a Ninja Training academy. I wish I went to a school like that...believe me! The animation rocks! The noses look a little more accurate. Butt-kickin galore! I'm just glad this anime doesn't play with cards and does it the old-fashioned way! So, Listen here, you dub-haters...I L-I-K-E the dub...BITE ME!

Flaws: The anime uses filler arcs so the anime won't overlap the manga. I feel they went a little overboard, even though I liked the one that centered around Lee and Gai-sensei. Some of the voices in the dub are very annoying (Sakura and Ino) while some are awesome (Rock Lee, Kakashi and others) and some are okay (Gaara and Others).

Fave Character: Gai-sensei, because, despite he's not the greatest or best-looking jonin and can come off as a little flamboyant, he has an open, kind heart and cares about his students, especially Rock Lee.

9/10. If you want hardcore action, crushes galore and lots of humor, Naruto is for you...Believe It!
