Okay, so I got into Naruto a little after it started airing on CTN. I watched the pilot episode, and didn't like it at first. Then, later someone had mentioned it and I caught the episode where he fights Zabuza for the first time. What got me hooked was actually the cleverness of the fight. So I guess by that time the anime was just beginning the Sasuke Retrieval Arc. I was so hooked, I caught up in a matter of days.
Having to wait every week for new episodes to air was absolutely tortuous after having so many to begin. Remembering Part I, I suppose I wasn't dead set on the fact that Sakura and Naruto belonged together. I remember relating to Naruto as a main character, and I genuinely wished for him to achieve his goals. One of them being getting Sakura to like him back.
I never really liked Part I Sakura, but I realized she would eventually mature into a great character. Which she did. Her fight against Sasori is definitely one of my favorites. I hope she does get a power-up out of this arc.
I currently play Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 for the PS3. My handle is AngelAlkaiser on there.
So yeah, hello everyone!
Edit: Oh yeah, thought I'd mention how I found this place. Basically I got bored so I decided to re-read every manga chapters, and watch every episode all over again. When I got to the point of the confession, I became curious as to what other people thought of it. Namely if it spelled the end of NaruSaku or not. I found a great post on this site, with some of the vets expressing some really well thought opinions. I was blown away by what I read. (Up until now, I did not know shipping wars even existed). So I lurked awhile, and finally decided to join.
Other favorite animes include: Saint Seiya, Full Metal Panic!, Inuyasha, X, Samurai X, Ninja Scroll, Dragon Ball(Z), Sailor Moon, and Bananas in Pajamas... Bananas in Pajamas isn't an anime but it came on after Sailor Moon and I really dug the theme song. The end.
