| So the fated day is slowly aproaching... i still have mixed feelings about it, i really want to know the long time Naruto fans (or not so long) in Mal. i met my bro Naruto almost 8 years ago, i was a child (12 years). Do tell, how long has it been for you? |

| I started watching it when the original series had around 100 episodes out, so almost 2 years after it first aired in Japan, so during summer 2004 (I was 14 years old). That's 10 years and a half. I watched the first 100 episodes in like 2 weeks. It was the first subbed anime I've watched in my life and the first time I watch that much episodes of anything in a row. |
| Since I was 6 or 7. That's 8 years... |
| Ha. Ha. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. I'm laughing because you got hurt. |
| It's been in my life for 9 or 10 years now, when the anime started airing in my country. Since then, I've had ups and downs, as I did drop the series a good half-a-dozen times. Then, back in 2011, I grabbed the series again, but on the manga. I mostly thank Bleach for making me come back to Naruto, since watching made me miss Naruto, and so I've came back to it, and I hope we get an amazing finale, since this is the 3rd anime to ever made me get deep into it, after Dragon Ball and Code Geass. |

That's 10 years and a half. 10 and half years we got a veteran here :D |
| Around 2004-2006: I first got introduced to the series through a ps2 game i played at a cousin's house (I did'nt remember much of anything from the game other than the name, Kakashi and Rock Lee's designs (vaguely) and the name Gaara) After that i was informed by a friend that it was actually a "cartoon" and that he was currently watching it, and later i started watching it with a different friend. I started watching it when the chunin exams first came around to where we lived (specifically the Info/Sakura fight) ,i started enjoyin it during the Naruto/Kiba fight ,though i did'nt know what was going on half the time it was enjoyable and the fart part was hilarious. Though I got hooked and truly became a fan during the Rock Lee/Gaara fight (which still remains my favourite fight in the series). After that my friend continued purchased/rented some of the DVDs (Okay,they're not exactly DVDs,more like CDs with Pirated episodes on them,but i did'nt/care about those details) and I'd watch it whenever I visited. this was in my final years of Highschool and my ability to watch was pretty limited given I was in boarding school. I also tended to watch slot of the fights on YouTube (I remember them always being AMVs so I didn't actually know much of what was happening) and also had one of the RPGs (DS) emulated on my Mom's computer (which is actually where most of my accurate of the series came from back then given how faithful an adaptation it was) Then I got into college had access to infinite internet and begun from the start and the rest is history, I also simultaneously read the manga (I was terrible at reading manga at the time btw) considering I'd been pretty much spoiled on most of the plot-points from watching AMVs or discussing with my friend). ended up dropping it at various points but at the end of the day always found myself coming back to it (The Manga not the Anime, dropped that shit like a hot potato due to filler) |

    looket all them demons oh boy am i scared i better run ● ● ● |

| Since 2004, when my brother got me a Shounen Jump magazine |
 |
| Whoah! lots of long time fans (7-11 years)... Naruto may had its ups and downs, but... i'm pretty happy that i got to be a part of the Naruto era!!! |
| Since 2007 man, I was a wee lil 13 year old. When this show ends I'll feel like a chapter of my life has closed :/ |
| Around 2007 or 8, Less than 30 episodes into Shippuden. Caught up in like a week or two right before school started again. Heard it was gay before then so I never checked it out until I got into anime and a friend told me how good it was. |
     Short of the day: Monotonous Purgatory(MAL) ✰Public Domain Club | One Piece Club✰ |
| I started watching it when the first few anime episode in dubs came out, can't remember if that was 2004... but it's definitely been in my life for around 10 years. Edit: seems it was 2005 VanishingKira said: Since 2005 when it first aired on Cartoon Network. thanks! |

| The first episode I remember watching was where Sasuke got his curse mark and snapped that dudes back in half. That's what hooked me on the show. |

| I watched the first episode back in 2006 or 7; the same day I watched the first episode of Bleach. My memory of it is quite vivid; I especially remember becoming entranced upon hearing the ending theme. |

| Konbu is important |
| Also the opening in Japanese was really awesome in comparison to other shows like DBZ or One Piece, it also went on way longer. |

| started reading it in 2002, not liking it. 2014 come. I must read them manga or else I can't proceed with my translation works. I realized that I need money to live. I thanked Kishi for that. |
| Since 2004, I believe. |
| Bout 12 years ago when I was 11 and my grandpa bought my brother the DVD, we have DVDs up to chuunin exam. We stopped buying them around the time it was announced that it would air on Cartoon Network. I remember my brother not wanting to watch it with subtitles claiming he knew Japanese. |

| the final chapters are coming out tomorrow, not today :( IntroverTurtle said: Heard it was gay before then Yeah, it happened to me! i never really tried naruto until... well a cousin was watching it, and i sat with him just for curiosity, i still remember, it was the fight between lee and gaara... so much awesomeness, inmediately looked for the fist episode... good times! |
| 2008/2009. That makes it 6 or 5 years. |
| For me it was 8 years... i was 10 years old... god how time passes so quickly. Naruto will never be forgotten! well farewell... |
| Yes, we may fall but there is something that we can do.... LIVE |
| I been follow the series for 7-9 years I believe. |
| 2010. I was at a game center with friends playing fighting games, we decided to play Ultimate Ninja storm 1 and I got addicted to it. My favorite game next to Tekken. Turns out everyone was into Naruto and they got into a discussion and got me interested. Mainly they were like "Oh Gaara this and that" probably referring to episode 50-ish stuff I realized afterward. My favorite characters to play as were Sasuke, Kiba and Naruto |
| End Zionazism |
| 10 years. |
| To be continued... |
| Heard about it around 2007 when Shippuuden started airing, didn't bother watching/reading it until 2 years ago. Completed the original anime series and dropped it around vol 30 or so,still don't plan to give it a second chance anytime soon. |
| I started watching around beggining of 2004 and started reading the Manga at around the Kate summit arc. So it's been like a good 10 years. Even with is flaws it's sad to see it go :'( it was a good part of my childhood |
| Started in 2006. I was 16 an unfamiliar with the difference between anime and cartoon. It was Naruto that started my journey (of course I had watched other anime before that but I didn't know they were anime) |
 |
| Roughly 5 years |
| About 7 years. Started watching during High School during Spring Break. |
 |
| About 8 years. |
| 2003. My sister introduced Naruto to me then. I remember clearly it was during the Chunin exam arc. I then go ahead to pull 3 friends into Naruto. Ahh brings back memories.. |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| Around when the anime was airing in our local network with dub. So maybe 9 years? Although I did drop because it was way too long for me. |
 |
| I've been watching ever since I was 7 years old back on Cartoon Network. So it's been like 8 years |
| Seven years. |
 |
| a little more than 2 years... |
