I'm not saying fanservice is wrong, but a moderated touch wouldn't harm a show like that.

It's essentially a slight step removed soft-core hentai and should be thought of as such. It serves it's purpose - to arouse or amuse to it's target audience. You wouldn't watch some shuonen series and complain about the overuse of dramatic reaction shots and named moves, would you?

of dramatic reaction shots and named moves

^^ lol

I was just talkin to one of my buddies while watching naruto about that!

maybe I'v not found my target anime yet?!

but still, I guess I'm just old-fashioned clean-sport.

with that said, I like my fan-service...right before "too-much"

Massive amounts of violence, gunplay, badassery, lame running gags all could be fanservice...

so I'll say yes I like it.

Id say really the only fanservice Naruto has is Tsudane's chest.

I wasn't refurring(talking about, that is) to fanservice when I mentioned naruto, I was talking about the
named moves in mid-combat.(if you call those fights combat anyway)

anyway I think supershanko spoke for the both of us (me and him(her?))

Really? So you didn't think it was fanservice when Naruto transformed into a naked girl huh?

.........unless yer gay^^^.......then no.

though I'm sure their are homos who watch naruto, so I guess it does count(especially for jiraiya.......fag)

I always found Naruto to be the source of fan service for the show, since thats how he always uses it, or when Jiraiya's out being pervy.

btw, im a dude in case iv'e never mentioned it.

yeah but if you think about it, thats kishimoto's way of sticking it to the man,
everytime he sees somebody ogling the henge-naruto, he can laugh in his own mind."their ogling a guy,teehee"

(sorry, bout that SS, couldn't remember and didn't want to insult)
