I was never really interested in it my whole life, but recently have been pursuaded to watch Naruto.
And I love it. It was corny at first, a bit dramatic and contained some questionable elements. But now that I'm a few episodes in I'm hooked. The storyline is an amazing display of character creation and growth.
What do you Phuks think?
I like anime because they include quite original ideas. No western series or movie is ever about teenagers piloting flying robots in east Germany during an alien invasion.
