Naruto V.S. Nabari no Ou

[jyuukai]

I've seen the entire Naruto series but I have dropped Shipuuden. Why you may ask? Because Naruto has gotten predictable and has been focusing strongly on Main Character Syndrome.

Just about two days ago, I learned of an anime called Nabari no Ou which is also about ninja. I've downloaded a few of the episodes and watched the OP...From what I've seen I personally think that Nabari no Ou is better than Naruto.

I want to know who disagrees or agrees and why?

I don't like comparing anime. Well, Nabari has lots of comedy and no pointless gay fillers which makes it better. I like Naruto better just because it just focuses a lot on Naruto and his training. Same with the other characters, you can at least see them fight and how strong they've grown, etc. Another reason I like Naruto better is because it has a lot of episodes. I'm a huge fan of long ass series. As for Nabari, I would have liked it better if there were more episodes. It seemed that the anime went by too fast near the end. Nevertheless, both of these anime are good.

Nabari no Ou hands down. Naruto makes me want to vomit on the creator.

A nice long series is a good thing but a short good series keeps you wanting more (/coughs/ Vampire Knight). But if you think about it from my perspective.

If I were to review Naruto I'd be a bald emo for having pulled my hair out with all of the pointless fillers and all of Sakura's whining. Not to mention it had 220 episodes.

But with NnO (Nabari no Ou), I would be able to produce a review in about two weeks for the most and still have a full head of hair. Also, I don't think it spent an entire episode having Raimei whining about how much she loved someone >.>

You all should know by now that comparing anime doesn't depend oon the anime, but the individual. People who like naruto will put why Naruto is "the best" and will refuse answers stating otherwise, and same goes for the fans of the other series.

I do enjoy watching both. However, I must say I was more frequent in watching Nabari no Ou then Naruto. So I guess I would chose Nabari no Ou over Naruto.
Naruto was a little more childish compared to Nabari no Ou. But that didn't stop me from watching Naruto Shippuden.

When it comes to Ninja's, I'd have to say Naruto has Nabari no ou beat on that. My reason for saying this is, there's not a whole a lot of action that pertains to ninjas. But when it comes to a plot that sucks you in just by the first episode alone I would say that Nabari no ou wins that one. I voted for Nabari no ou because, I liked the plot along with the characters.

And besides, you're comparing 2 completly different kinds of anime. Sure they both have ninja in it, but that's mostly all they have in common.
If you want to make a good debate, compare 2 similar things, not 2 thing with just one thing in common, believe me, that'll make a much interesting discussion.

Nabari no ou. Naruto is just long and boring.
