I'll tell you why
Ok so there's one thing that always bothered me. People like to complain how tired they are of Naruto and how everyone loves it, when they think it lame. Then a question popped up, "Whats so great about Naruto? Its really not all that great, is it?" I had to think about it a moment, when I like an anime I just like it. Mostly because its entertaining (which is the whole purpose of anime). I realized later that the reason why I like Naruto is much deeper.

My life has been rather harsh. My mother died when I was four. I was taken from my father at age nine for child abuse. I lived alone for a long time and finally my grandparnets took me in unwillingly. When I watched Naruto and I heard Naruto and Gaara's stories of their life, even though it isn't real, I could relate. And then just watching Naruto push his feelings aside so that he could become great showed me that maybe I could be strong too. The anime Naruto has inspired me. THATS why I love it so much.
