One of the mainstream series Ive never gotten around to. I love Dragon Ball so its not like every anime I watch has to be deep. Is it worth getting into? Whats the distinction between Naruto and Naruto Shippuden? Is Boruto any good?

There are legitimately great parts of Naruto early on and around the middle.
It is probably one of the most definitive bed shitters on the market towards the end, though. Shippuden is just the name for the anime post timeskip, to rebrand. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Im rewatching Naruto Kai right now, and there are still some moments of legitimately GOAT territory, but there is also a surprising amount of laugh out loud, wow this is godawful animation during unimportant parts that I didnt remember.
Even with the Kai edit Naruto + Shippuden is really long, so its hard to say if its worth it without the nostalgia? Maybe if you want to know about certain notoriously badass characters --- Phantom Dust. "I'll just wait for time to prove me right again." - Vlado ... Copied to Clipboard!

Admittedly Naruto is my biggest guilty pleasure. I secretly love all the stupid bullshit at the end, it's just dumb fun.
The first half is legit good though it often exemplifies my biggest issue with shounen anime, there are so many flashbacks it hurts --- I don't kill... but I don't lose either. ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you'd be interested in something that just started to watch weekly, Tower of God started this season and has been incredible so far, some very heavy HxH vibes. Having read ahead in the manhwa it's gonna stay that way, too.

Watch the original series then read the manga. Besides the final battle seeming interminable it never gets car crash bad, but does go downhill.
The Shippuden anime on the other hand, is a car crash. Except slowed down 1000x. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh yeah come to think of it I never even watched Shippuden, just read the manga, played the Ninja Storm games (which are better than the anime) and watched some of the fights that were expertly animated but those are few and far between.

I don't know how to recommend Naruto
This is a problem with long shows, it has tons of great moments but after you get invested into it a lot you want to see it to the end and...the end is not good Everything before the timeskip is great (don't listen to those "Naruto sucked after the Chuunin exam wahhhhhhhhhh" idiots) But Shippuden is a mess The original anime has some filler arcs but you can easily skip them In Shippuden the fillers are..part of the show, and good luck skipping them. There is also a huge drop in quality after a certain part ( Honestly, just watch the original, skip the filler episodes, then decide if you want to continue --- wololo ... Copied to Clipboard!

I read the manga and have no regrets, aside from the bad scanlation of post-timeskip. I really like the comedic faces the author draws, and his awkward personal anecdotes in the tankobon.

The adapted arcs in the original are all very good imo. The problem in the original series (for this I am counting Shippuden as a different show even though it's technically the same if you go on the manga), is that there is all that filler and the filler is so bad. I can't in good faith ignore the filler and be like it's still good. Without the filler it's probably an 8 or a 9 imo, but with it it's like a 4 or a 5. (although there is one notable great filler episode where they try to find out what's under Kakashi's mask).
I actually dropped Shippuden but finished the manga. Some of the stuff gets kind of eh later on. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Naruto feels like a show that had a ton of potential if it stayed grounded to the original idea.
When they began to make it some bullshit doomsday nonsense is when it started to lose its appeal. The best parts of Naruto is when it focuses on teams of ninjas trying to help people, and ninjas growing with their powers and abilities. When it's at its worst is when it focuses on these ridiculously OP characters and fox power ups and stupid shit like that. If they kept it reigned in I feel like it would have been a much better series. --- Check out my entertainment blog!: www.heroicbiz.com I discuss video games, comics, movies, and TV! ...

I feel personally attacked by you for suggesting I should watch Naruto to the end. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.
I quit watching Naruto after I watched an entire episode with Orichimaru fighting the wood powers ninja guy and the subber said at the start of the episode "This episode only has 13 lines of dialogue. lol" How does this happen? --- Check out my entertainment blog!: www.heroicbiz.com I discuss video games, comics, movies, and TV! ...

The beginning of Naruto (the first serie) is the best, you can see if you continue afterwards.
However, you should stop at around 100 episodes before the end , because it will be an endless stream of bad fillers that will sap any interest you might have in the serie. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sincerely? Because I considered getting this for the switch Yes I would honestly recommend just playing through the Ninja Storm games. They adapt the story well enough and in a lot of cases the fight scenes in the games are done way better than the anime where most of the time they couldn't even bother. Note that I'm mainly talking about Shippuden. You should still watch part 1 of Naruto normally. --- I don't kill... but I don't lose either. ... Copied to Clipboard!
