A story about a blonde ninja who never gives up like shut up no you shut up-style and evil people trying to get him to shut up but he won't.
And there are powers too, really cool ones like summoning frogs and turning into sexy women or men depending on your preference. Check it out.

They're ninjas with varying types of magic. the magic quickly got more intense over the series, from "supplement to vaguely ninja-like work" to "weapons of mass destruction."
Ninja school became irrelevant pretty fast and the series revolved around giant magic fights from then on

His character arc goes from "Wanting to commit senseless mass murder" to "Wanting to commit moderately less senseless mass murder, but for a different reason now." It's pretty dark and edgy.
"ninja" based action cartoon. I put ninja in quotes 'cause they don't do anything even remotely close to ninja. I guess the shurikens and kunais and log substitution are kinda ninja.
The action is really good though and I enjoy it for what it is. The power levels really do get super insane and I have a problem with a certain character's random power ups.
It's good action, and some of the stories are really great, especially "part 1".

The German Opening does a good job of explaining it.

^ Definitely agree. They're like... uhh....... Godric Gryffindor. A wizard who knows how to martial arts/ use swords sometimes. Basically, they use their str/dex stat.

who ends up with the pink haired gal
We don't know yet, but it's heavily implied that orange jumpsuit gets the girl.
I just checked the manga thread today by chance... no one currently. The author is really really bad at the love story

Hey, the Power Arc is legit. But that's a discussion to another place =)
Anyway OP is kind of hard to give you an easy recap of the story of Naruto. There's a lot of things that happen and it's being running for a while.
It's mostly about the relationship of this two guys.
Naruto like I said, that a terrible childhood all with everyone hating him, him not knowing why and having a giant demon scratching to get out from his inside. But he starts to make friends after a while and start to win people over. One of those friends is Sasuke, the black hair fella in this homoerotic manga cover.
Sasuke had a great childhood with a loving family, but one day his brother massacre his entire family and let him as the last remaining member of his clan, from then his entire goal was getting more power in other to get revenge.
And an Naruto become unlikely friends, but more rivals than anything. In the end Sasuke's hatred is consuming him and he resorts to more and more extreme methods to get power. It's up to Naruto to save him form become a full blown villain. The series ends with Sasuke becoming a rogue ninja, wanted dead or alive by the village.
Part two continues that story and is still running.

Naruto loves Pink Hair gal. (Sakura)
Sakura loves Sasuke.
Sasuke doesn't love anyone that we know off.
Green Guy is a Bruce lee knock of character, he can't use ninja techniques so he work his ass off and become good enough in martial arts to become a relevant ninja by cheer effort alone.
When he fought a ninja that just happened to have natural talent that controlled sand, he got wreck.
Man, the OG series was so good.

Makes me want to start watching it again. I stopped when the fillers started right before Shippuden, but seeing this makes me remember that I quite enjoyed the series when I was into it.

This is probably the peak of Naruto's story though. After this specific arc ends it's 10 years of Sharingan Trolling from the Uchiha Clan and it never, ever pries itself loose from that horrible plot device.
Me too. Actually all I want is a long arc of Itach i& Kakashi anbu missions. I don't ask for much.

Young boy with no talent is the only person in the ninja world who can break the never ending cycle of hate and violence by using love and violence.

Can somebody explain Naruto and One Piece to me in DBZ lingos? I am in my 30s to be honest I didn't think it was worth my time to follow either Naruto or One Piece. But I would like to know their plots.
Bonus point if you can explain them in Saint Seiya lingos.

What do you mean by lingos?
There both battle shonen. One piece is better but is really long.

Hey rock lee isn't the main character.

One Piece is technically better but is more boring.
Naruto has higher highs and lower lows, you can be angry, disappointed, annoyed but always entertained.
Naruto high are great but they are so rare now that it hard not to be angry all the time.

I might actually watch that. I was pretty into Naruto in college but there was a stretch of 75+ filler episodes at one point and I just thought wtf am I doing?

i saw it a while ago on reddits /r/naruto, its a heavily cut down version of the anime
I don't think I can say much more considering its not licensed

You don't even need some special kai version. Just google naruto filler guide and follow it. Problem solved.
