Friend wants to know and didn't want to create an account for a one time post.

I honestly don't know why he cares about your guys' opinions since he doesn't even come to this forum... well... whatever.

Most of us are in the US, where it's not out yet. I'll let you know sometime next year.

If you're lucky.

Naruto is good, but your poll is flawed, because while I like Naruto, I think DBZ sucks

Same here. I love Naruto, but DBZ is not really that great.

I want to give Naruto a try. But I've read the first volume of the manga, and I've got a feelign it's going ot be really predictable and repetative (same with Samurai Deeper Kyo) ... any news good or ill on that front?

It really is not. Half the stuff I did not see coming. That is one of the amazing things about Naurto, it suplys you with a good Shinobi manga that almost never takes the path that you thought would happen.

Yeah, Naruto does have quite a few surprises. Just when you think everything is going to be okay, something else goes totally wrong.

I watched the first 70 or so episodes, then started having problems with BitTorrent or something. It is a really good show - and it doesn't stereotype ninja too much, either.

Sadly, I only ever got through one full storyline in the first 70 episodes. The second story was waaaaaay too long and I never finished it.

Seen the first coupla episodes subbed. Sorta meh, not really funny, but not really bad.
And it must be out in the US somewhere. A friend of mine got it off EBay in $US. First huge chunk of the subbed anime on VHS, and all the manga in .pdf format.

I like Naruto, I download every episode. DBZ is utter crap compared to it.

I will admit it is obviously a show for kids, and as such not as complex as it perhaps could've been. Also, the rate of plot development per episode is slightly annoying. Not nearly as bad as DBZ, though.

Naruto is OK. It's a cut above most shonen manga/anime, but so far it hasn't managed to avoid some of the horrible cliches of shonen manga, namely the "30+ episode tournament". Does anyone else besides me have a problem with that? It's basically an excuse for the writer to skip writing a storyline and just invent wierd enemies for the heroes to fight. DBZ, Yu Yu Hakusho... they all have tournaments!

That said, Naruto is still pretty good. Even if it's not too original, it's kind of fun.
