I guess I just like Naruto as a character, back then he was still an unknown quantity, unproven, scared. I loved your description of the Zabuza scene. You really captured the shock of the moment when we see Zabuza's "demonic" image breaking down. In fact, it was probably at that point when I decided to become a proper anime fan and search out more of the same. Because Zabuza was a villain yet seemed so sympathetic just totally caught me off guard. After that I went straight into looking up things like Cowboy Bebop and Berserk. Thanks for the illumination of the Gato scene too. I suppose the beheading was too violent for the Naruto anime but man, it's certainly bad-ass. @Protodude: I think I like Gaara vs. Naruto fight because it’s very much the moment Naruto goes from being that snotty kid to an actual hero, it’s kind of like the climax of the first series, after which Sasuke goes mental and everything, as they say, “goes to shit”.

But eh, my favorite moment is also not quite looked at as much. Now, this is going by the manga, which is what got me into Naruto in the first place, but the scene where Zabuza cried over Naruto's speech on Haku really tugged at my heart-strings. I literally shed a tear! I think it was the way it was played out: Naruto yelling at Zabuza for his disrespect over Haku, with Zabuza's eyes slowly hidden out of view. Naruto is bawling by the end of his speech. The final panel ends with a shot of tears falling to the ground. I assume they're Naruto's when I turn the page to find a huge image of Zabuza crying, saying "Kid....not another word." ;_; Also of interesting note is the way Gato died differs. Zabuza, both arms useless and a kunai knife in his mouth, heads toward him; in the anime, he just kind of, I don't know, pushes him off the bridge or something? Lame. But in the manga, he fucking CUTS OFF HIS HEAD as it flies into the crowd of cronies he hired. Awesome. bateszi, I seriously think you’re in the minority when it comes to liking the Gaara vs. Naruto fight so much. But eh, my favorite moment is also not quite looked at as much.

I'm surprised you didn't include the Gaara vs. Naruto fight in your count-down (definitely one of my top moments in the show), but it's a fine list anyway. I also liked the unmasking of Kakashi episode, if just because it's so stupid and out of wack with the usual Naruto style - if I can remember correctly, even Mr. Angst himself, Sasuke, gets involved in the plot to get Kakashi!

I love all of the episodes, but my favorite moments are: 1.) When Gaara fights Rock Lee-Rock Lee is totally awesome in that part. And so is Gaara I suppose, but I don't like him as much. 2.) Naruto saves Iruka using the Shadow Clone in the second or third episode, I think. One of the first episodes anyway. 3.) It's not a moment, but I LOVE the whole episode at the beginning when Naruto gets jealous of Sasuke and tries to gain Sakura's attention and therefore knocks out Sasuke and transforms to look like him. And the part where Rock Lee sends little hearts towards Sakura and she has to dodge them. That part is sooo funny. And every other scene that is funny or hilarious I basically LOVE. That episode 'Gotta See! Gotta Know! Kakashi-sensei's True Face!' is hilarious too. Even though it doesn't further the plot, it's hilarious. 4.) The fight between Temari and Shikamaru-even though he forfeits when he has won. Stupid Shika. 5.) I also love it when Naruto saves all of them from Orochimaru- and he says "You're not hurt, are you, scaredy cat" to mimick when Sasuke told him that. I love that part. 6.) I also love the part where Sasuke saves Naruto and is almost killed and when Naruto unleashes the dreadful terrifying NINE-TAILED FOX. I LOVE all of the episodes, but those are my favorites. :) By the way, since the title of this post is Impulsive commentary,Naruto, I figure I should probably reply.

Now I can go to sleep happy again knowing that one of the most awesome heroes on my favorite show ever lives and I love the show so far. The last episode was 'The Race is on! Trouble on the High Seas!' where Idate is attacked and you learn that he was once a ninja before he started hating them which probably has something to do with his brother. I just noticed where I got confused. When you said "lose" in you're first favorite moment of Naruto, I thought you meant DIE. I'm happy that's not what it was. Thank you for putting me back at rest and out of possible psychological breakdown or something like that. Thanks so much for the reply.

You'll be happy to know that, no, Naruto doesn't die. However, during the climax of the series he faces off against Sasuke and... loses. I presume the US version of Naruto is getting close to that point; you'll be shocked. Just looking at Wikipedia now, you're just approaching that very arc. And I'm sure in the end, whenever that may be, good will vanish evil ;) Hey Alicia. You’ll be happy to know that, no, Naruto doesn’t die.

I live in the USA. Does Naruto( also my hero)actually die? That can't be true. You're lying. I know you are... Ok, so I don't but I really HOPE you are. Naruto saved his friends many times, and he is one of the main sources of true honest emotion and heroism in the series. You have got to be lying. Will you answer back so I know, until then I'll just go to sleep happily each night thinking that Naruto hooks up with Hinata, Sasuke ends up with Sakura, and Kakashi lives. And hopefully most of the other good characters live, oh and that EVIL Orochimaru either dies or miraculously turns good. I like happy endings! :( You're lying. I will just tell myself that til I find out otherwise. Are you serious?!!!!! I live in the USA. Does Naruto( also my hero)actually die? That can’t be true. You’re lying.
