This is my first review. I hope I don't come off as too much of a jerk.
I watched quite a bit of anime before I watched Naruto. I have had some beautiful high points while watching (FMA Brotherhood) and some disappointing lows (SAO). Sadly Naruto was one of those lows.
Story: 4
Repeat after me: FILLER EPISODES!
This was the worst for me. I usually binge watch anime, so sometimes watching 3+ episodes in a row where the plot made next to no progress became a little mind numbing. Not only that, but the main story line was just kind of boring. I never felt entertained by it.
...
Most of the entertainment I got was either unintentional or just basic slapstick humor.
Art: 5
I've seen better and I've seen worse.
Sound:7
The sound is great. The themes set the scene well, and the Japanese voice acting is great. I don't have any experience with the dubbed version however.
Character: 5
I hate Sakura and Sauske. They are crappy, underdeveloped characters that are whiny and annoying. It's a shame that they are main characters. Naruto is okay. The only characters I liked were Shikamaru and Rock Lee. To directly quote my friend Matt, "Rock Lee is a badass. Everybody wishes they were Rock Lee." The only reason he watched Naruto was to cheer on his boy Lee.
Enjoyment: 4
Wow. When it comes down to it, I only finished the series to put it on My Animelist. There, I said it. Even Rock Lee wasn't enough to save this show. I honestly didn't enjoy it too much.
Overall: 4
Needs moar Rock Lee.
