Man, the fillers must have really killed this show's appeal if CN won't even bother to air the new series... or is there some kind of behind-the-scenes feud brewing between them and VIZ? Or perhaps CN balked at whatever VIZ was charging for airing rights to the dub?

Ah, network drama.

Off topic (somewhat), I missed Memories of Nobody. Are the Bleach movies really worth bothering with?

No, no, no, why does it have to be Disney XD?!!! I don't have Disney XD and I want to watch this, arghhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As far as Memories of Nobody is concerned, I thought it was pretty good and I liked it, but I don't really know if you would consider watching it. I had no plans on buying or renting it, but I know I would have been pissed if I had of turned the tv on at 12:30 and finding out I was 30 min. late into the movie. (Thank God I turned it to see which Clone Wars ep was on.)

Is Naruto Shippuden any diffrent to the Naruto series already airing on Toonami?

It takes place, what... 3 years later? So everyone's older. Naruto's still a knucklehead, though. Or so I hear.

i believe shippuden and the original series are fairly similar, the characters are basically the same (naruto really hasn't improved much fyi) the fillers are just as tiresome, but the actual story is still pretty good. and if you want to see sasuke, well haha i guess.

SHIPPUDEN IS THE CONTINUATION OF THE NARUTO SERIES SET 3 YEARS AFTER THE 1ST SERIES ENDS (COVERING V28+ OF THE MANGA)

Same characters just older, more Akatsuki stuff over time less orochimaru. Like Naruto's DBZ basically.

& the Reason its on DisneyXD instead of CN is because CN's CEO is a Xenophobic idiot who refuses to show any anime thats not Toyetic, if they can't make money of of the merch for it, they won't show it.

Thank God Adult Swim Still has A CEO that likes anime, as for the Reason AS Didn't Pick up shippuden, 2 reasons really 1, there budget wouldn't allow it & 2. they already have all there Chickens in the Bleach anime that they (& I) love so much!

So yea....Naruto Shippuden Coming to Disney XD October 2009! Get used to it People, Anime companies are Fed up with Regular CN so expect most anime to be ON AS, Scyfy or DisneyXD from now on! (possibly Nicktoons Network as well)

I hate anime- except for Sonic cuz of my superfanage of it.

I just found a Sonic fan in my new neighborhood.

I-I- Nevermind.

Disney XD is an odd choice, and last I heard Naruto was a hit on CN?

Though I guess they had to make room for CN REAL!

Then why are you even commenting on this?

Anyway, I've missed the show, so I'm glad to see it back somewhere on television. I just wonder if I actually get Disney XD.

Just because Sonic has 1 anime does not make it an anime franchise, Thats like saying the archie comic makes it a comic franchise...Sonic is an International all ages Franchise, not an anime......Please Don't post such off topic things in this thread. Thank you Kindly-Soundmonkey

Also I think for all of those who arn't sure if they get XD or not, I'd check there site, it might list carriers. or try TV.COM

Also I agree Disney is Trying to make XD the New Toonami...Now all we need is One Piece & Soul Eater & will be set! LULZ!

Uh, it has two. The Sonic OVA and Sonic X.

Well, he still has a point in saying it isn't an Anime franchise, but still, Sonic is mainly japanese and is technically an anime other then the Archie cartoon/comics.

3 Sonic Cartoons made in North America. A long lasting US Sonic Comic, A UK Comic that had a decent run. Some of the sonic games being made or worked on in the US & Canada.....No, its not Mainly Japanese Nor an anime Franchise, It has had Merch made all around the world, True, Sonic's Daddy is Japanese, But make him an anime that does not!

SONIC IS AN INTERNATIONAL FAMILY FRANCHISE!!!!

calm down legion, he's just trying to participate.

idk how well the fillers were received in the u.s. i know i had a few students that liked watching them though. but who knows? maybe people (and cn) got fed up with all of it. i know for sure that the manga is selling pretty strong in the US though.

Dude, I fixed my post. And yes, his games are ANIME which makes most of the franchise Anime.

*facepalm* sorry, I mean MANGA games. But Anime is just Manga but animated... you know what I meant. Sonic IS Manga.

Oh, btw, theres ALSO the Sonic X manga comics, and the japanese Sonic the Hedgehog manga series.

Sonic IS Manga.

Though Sonic is a multimedia franchise, it is a game franchise first and foremost. Anything else is merely additional. Oh, and to bring this thread back on topic, I think Naruto Shippuden is a decent anime but full of boring fillers.

1. It's a MANGA game franchise. 2. What are fillers?

1. It's a MANGA game franchise

No, it's a multimedia franchise with the games being the first and foremost aspect of the franchise.

OK OK WERE GETTING TO OFF TOPIC SO...

1. Quicksilver...Lets all agree to disagreee

2, FIller are episodes of a series that arn't based of the origional conetent, like the Bount saga in bleach, or the last 80+ episodes of the 1st Naruto series.

3. Also Not sure if i said this yet. when the series premires on XD it'll be a 2-hour marathon so wee get the 1st 4 eps in 1 night!

1. Quicksilver...Lets all agree to disagreee

Wise words, Legion. Wise words! Also, you didn't say number 3 before. Thanks for letting us know.

I swear Quicksilver is trolling you guys. Just saying.

in b4 successful troll

UPDATE: According to TZ The Premire of Shippuden has been Moved up to Wendsday October 20th!

That means it;ll be on even sooner! YAY!!!!!

also...thanks Rish.

& Quicksilver...QUIT BEING A TROLL!!!

how are they gonna get past Sai's penis jokes?

Maybe they'll call it his "WHOO WHOO!" XP

AT DP...Don't know

& this is a little off Topic but since its my thread....Ive been watching Black Lagoon & I Just Finished watching the Vampire Twins arc.....That was just so Damn Sad....I mean you wait the Whole time for the lil freaks to die & when they do you feel sorry for them because of there story...& the sad music playing at the end credits didn't help at alll...I actually Cried! ME!!! I Never ever Cry!!!

Man I hate shows that make you feel sorry for the Villians! Im not gonna be able sleep tonight now! (I'll probably have NIghtmares about AXE/Machine Gun weilding twins trying to kill me!)LULZ!!!!

BacK on topic...Heres what the Few edits will most likely be like.

1. Konahmaru's sexy Justsu in Ep1 will be edited further or Cut out

2. the Naruto Manhood joke will be changed ot Cut out...Same Goes for Naruto's..."Wet Dream" from the same ep. (you know the one with Sakura, Hinata & other Kunoichi in the Hot spring...the one that turns into a nightmare.

3. & of Course as usual Cursing will be Cut, & Profuse Blood, as on CN we will still get some blood but not alot.

I saw he Sexy Jutsu in the Naruto game once. He just kept doing it and doing it... what's the point?

its really an adimts at comedy on Naruto's part, & it can also distract more of there Perverted foes...But in the Entire Naruto Series combined its only done lie what mabye 10 time between Naruto & Konahamuru. So really its just somthing used on Occasion for Comedy.

Also an Improtant note: the 1st Episode Starts with a FlashFoward scene (like a Flashback, but set in the Future)

Also Here's the List of Episodes Airing In October (remember to check your local TV guide for Times)( All Dates & Times Are Subject to Change)
(If/When Schedule Changes I will Update this List!)

Oct 20th
Ep 1. Home Coming
Ep 2. The Akatsuki Makes its move
Ep 3. The Result of Training!
EP4. The Jinjurikichi of Sand

Oct 27TH
Ep 5. The Kazekage Stands Tall
EP 6. Mission Cleared!

heh i've actually seen all of those episodes already. Undubbed of course, thanks to youtube

So, does anybody know if any channels are going to finish off the last episodes of the first series? Cuz CN stopped airing Naruto right in the middle of an arc, I hate it when they do that, and I would like to watch it and the others, I don't care if they are filler eps!

That seems a bit odd.

NO CN has the Rights to the 1st Naruto Series & they have no intention of showing the Last 10 eps. the only way you can see those in English is Buying Naruto Uncut Boxset #16.

However CN does Still air the Naruto Movies...But thats about it, & considering CN's Rights to the 1st Naruto Series Expire Next Summer, I don't think the last 10 eps will be aired on US TV Unless XD picks those up as well.
