- middle school crush and influences
- i liked this boy during middle school and all my tastes were BLINDLY influenced by his personal favorites
- he loved to hate naruto with a passion because he said the plot was very similar to hunter x hunter (that's what he said)
- hunter x hunter was his favorite anime, so, naturally, i also hated naruto... because he did
- when i say hate, i mean hate
- the kind of hate a '00' teen could express
- at 26 (almost 27), i decided to share some of my childhood series with my 15-year-old brother because i need to bond with him
- bonding with this-generation-teen is tiresome, and if said teen has some difficulties (lack of attention, tik tok brain rot, etc...) i'd like to be involved in his shit
- lucky me, he’s getting into anime and manga...
- ... and since *naruto* is now available on prime video, i thought:
- "why not experience this for the FIRST time together and finally watch naruto?"
- ...
- flood of tears
- it’s actually really good! i don't know if it holds up to today’s standards, but it moved me deeply and made me cry
- i cried rivers of tears after watching just the first arc
- how foolish i was as a child, following the opinion of a boy i no longer know anything about
