Don't want to sound like a hater I'm genuinly curious as to why some people still read or watch Naruto. Every time I ask a friend who still watches it only responds with "is Kewl, belyb et!!1!".
Again, I just want to hear what other people see in it, I'm sure you guys have a valid reason and I would like to hear other peoples opinion and see their perspective.

I want to be Hokage. Is that wrong? IS THAT SO WRONG?

Most people will say they've invested too much time to let it go, or something along those lines.

I read Naruto. Despite finding it pretty boring, I still read it out of commitment. Plus, I always read One Piece every week, so the latest issue of Naruto is alway just sitting there. May as well read it.. My exception is Bleach. I read 400 or so issues of it and quit. Fuck Bleach.

I run into this reason a lot. It was also the main reason I kept going for so long.

Because I've seen so many of the episodes. If you cut the fillers out, the series is alright...and plus when it finishes I want to add it to my completed list. *^*

Been watching it since it first came out on Toonami. Now I find it shit but still read the manga so I don't feel like all that time has gone to waste.

Umm because I love it and never want it to end?

Because I'm interested in the on going conflicts and the plot still excite me and keeps me engaged. I love the characters, and I'm emotionally invested in them, so I want to see their endings.

It's has nothing do with ''commitment'' or just wanting to end already, I'm not one of those people that keeps watching/reading something because they spent time on, if you don't think it's good anymore, you are continuously wasting time.

Watching Naruto is great, as long as you find out in advance if an episode is filler or not. Without filler, it's a great series.

As the series is coming to a close, why wouldnt you keep watching it?
If you've made it as far as the series is now (600 eps later) why not watch the final (50-100'ish?) episodes?

I'm actually interested on how every anime that I watch is going to continue each and every episode.
That's also the reason why I cant drop any anime when I've started one.

Because althought is not what it used to be, Naruto was the first anime who introduced me in this world so it has his place in my heart, also is ending, it would be dumb to not watching it after all these years.

I'm only into the 50's of the episodes but I keep watching because of the characters. Especially Rock Lee. That fight with Garra and the thought of him coming back is enough.

Other than that I like the idea of the chakra principle.
It even makes me laugh quite a bit, while still being a good show and having cool fight scenes.

Bleach I couldn't stand at all.

I actually think Bleach was more entertaining to watch than most of Naruto.
Maybe because I think it's way to overdramatic at certain points or just the useless filler.
I do like the Anbu Arc they are on right now though :)
Each to their own I guess.

Why do you still read Berserk?

I'm genuinely curious.

I mean, you're "not" trying to "hate", right?

Nostalgia and it's still really fun. Naruto was my fave manga for awhile and I liked it enough to buy 52 volumes. It's still really enjoyable and I want to see how it ends. My 9/10 score ain't changing unless Kishimoto really fucks up the ending

If only children's passionate angst could be directed towards a more productive cause than hate these days.

The rant is quite comical though.

I quite like the flashbacks and really enjoy all the characters I've seen so far. I've got a feeling I wont like it as much nearing the end when it all becomes about Sasuke.
I don't know what it is about Bleach I just couldn't keep interested; but with Naruto i do.

I was gonna say something positive about Naruto.

Then I realised I've had it on-hold for over a year and have no motivation to change that.

i read the manga where i left off a little whiles back after a fuck it a while back, i only had to read the pain arc to the start of the final arc, granted i pretty much already knew what happened but i did actually read it for myself none the less

I'm retarded or something but I love the story ?? I want to see if Naruto becomes hokage, or Sasuke now lmao. Also want Naruto and Hinata to get together. And also you don't watch an anime for 5 years and the suddenly stop wathing it, you just don't. I've watched this anime for like 1/3 of my life, can't just give that up.

It may sound corny or some shit, but it's because Naruto is a part of me.
I gotta say that if I hadn't discover Naruto back in my childhood years, I wouldn't love it as much as I do now. I love Naruto because it has always been there with me. I am emotionally attached to it. I have many memories with Naruto.
Whatever they say about Naruto now, like how it went downhill, stupid plot twist or some shit. The never ending filler hate. I actually don't give a shit about it. Well......maybe a little, but fuck that. I still love Naruto. In the end, no matter how much shit Naruto has become like some people say, they can't hide the fact that Naruto is successful.
It's news now that Naruto is about to end, but I am sure that the franchise will not yet end. I guess, the odds are in my favor :D
