I still remember the day when I found this manga. Me, my cousins and sister all used to watch the anime (the first anime that genuinely caught my attention) , I spent an entire summer marathoning it with my sister but when it ended with Sasuke leaving I was devastated....surely it can;t end like that. Thankfully my friend one day brought in some pics of Naruto and Gaara from Shippuden and when I first saw it I was like what the hell is this...where, how when. I then got caught with Shippuden (it had only started so it didn't take long) but one day I accidentally clicked images instead of the web search and was met with a comic of some stuff I have never seen. After much investigation, I had discovered my first manga
Its been a crazy ride and to this day I am soo happy I found this manga/anime. I don't think I will be reading any other manga now (apart from the occasional Berserk manga), nothing really has caught my interest or I doubt ever will as much as Naruto. Naruto will always have a special place in my heart, it may not be the best manga, but it is by far my favourite manga.
Thank you Kishimoto and everyone in the fandom!
