BiswaNaruto classic Anime Series Review
Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)
Story and Characters
“Naruto” series have an interesting plot and large number of episodes based on the themes of friendship, never-give-up spirit and atonement. The protagonist is set around Naruto Uzumaki, a socially rejected shinobi with a dark past who aims for acknowledgment. This is inspiring and moving to watch a man who is rejection and an outcast become a hero.
It is remarkable that the series as a whole is strongest at characterisation. All of the characters, including the main character Naruto Uzumaki along with his companions Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno and the rather mysterious Kakashi Hatake have their own background and goals. Other than the roles portrayed by the characters, the social statuses and the alliances as well as the animosities create sub plots.
Animation and Art
The animation of “Naruto” is not quite smooth; sometimes it can be bad especially the early episodes of the series. Despite all the flaws, the major fights and important dramatic scenes are animated satisfyingly, which gives the epic and dramatic spirit. The art style is elegant, and creative character designs and detailed settings reflected the show’s theme of ninja.
Music and Sound
The music used in “Naruto” is well-chosen and magnificent; the songs are unforgettable, which contributes to the different emotions reflected in the series. Toshio Masuda and Yasuharu Takanashi are the musicians who created marvelous sound that runs from gentle and emotional to active and Sundance like. The opening and ending theme songs are catchy and cause you to remember that phrase, which may correspond to the series’ motifs of change or a character’s particular progression.
Themes and Messages
Many aspects of the show relate to real-life aspects like friendly relationships, the feeling of loneliness, and commitment and hard work. It also focuses on the internal conflicts of characters, in outing examining Naruto’s search for appreciation, as well as Sasuke’s vengeful campaign. This directly relates and interacts with the audience and teaches them useful lessons in life.
Pacing and Filler Episodes
Another major downside to “Naruto” is that it has quite a slow and bloated episode count, with many filler episodes that can get in the way of the viewer’s experience. Some filler arcs contain fun side quests with characters that can provide entertainment to the reader, whereas others seem irrelevant and too long. Thus, for those who do not like watching unnecessary episodes it would be wiser to do so.
Legacy and Impact
Looking at the impact of ‘’Naruto’’ one could easily conclude that it has revolutionized the anime industry and its viewers. It has prompted generations of other series and has put in front of the range of anime for a considerable number of users. This series’ impact does not only stay in the realm of television but has movies, spin-offs, toys, and other modes of consumptions.
Conclusion
“Naruto”is a favorite piece of anime work that can be considered one of the best ones, as far as excitement and involvement are concerned. Since the pacing is sometimes a problem, and there are a lot of episodes filled with unnecessary information, it is still worth watching for fans of anime shows, as Elfen Lied is a creative series with numerous memorable episodes, deep and meaningful storyline, and the characters’ development. It indeed deserved to be one of the greatest and most-loved anime shows of all time and still cuts across various generations.
Starting from the basics to the advanced viewers, anyone is recommended to watch “Naruto” at least once in a while.
Final Rating: I would like to give this Anime 4 out of 5 stars.
