I don't know anime what is anime before i watch Naruto. A friend watching this anime in front of me and this also attached my attention so i decided to watch this and then i know about animes. But this is not my first anime.
So Naruto has a great great story. I am a huge fan of this anime. But Naruto also has a large amount of filler epishode that why many people can't watch this anime because this anime requires a large amount of time.
Naruto was an anime series that ran from 2002 to 2007. In total 220 episodes of Naruto were aired. With a total of 90 reported filler episodes, Naruto has a high filler percentage of 41%.
If you want to watch this anime with minimum amount of time then drop all filler epishode and only wath story required episode.
Naruto anime has a lot of character and character development is awesome. And you can also relate with this character.
If you complete this anime means Naruto+ Naruto shippuden then you require a lot bucket to fill your tears.
