Naruto's story is so deep. That truly is it's legendary aspect.
hm...
father sealed a demon in him he is a nobody he becomes a good ninja He learns Rasengan he becomes a Great Ninja He becomes a demon He Learns Wind Style: Rasen Shuriken He forces the demon to the smallest part of his psyche He becomes a Sage He beats the last Pain He finds out his father is the 4th Hokage
hm... father sealed a demon in him he is a nobody he becomes a good ninja He learns Rasengan he becomes a Great Ninja... yeah... that's deep.
I personal think Naruto is great. It's deep because the characters are well conceived. The show does a great job of allowing the watcher to become emotional attached to the character because you follow Naruto and he's friends as the struggle through ninja training school and everyday life and then eventually move on to more deep concerning affairs. There are a great deal of villains and side plots that all come together into the central plot which brings more depth to the show. There is also some comedy sprinkled through out.
You really get a great sense of who they are and what they're about. The characters are not flat and two dimensional like some shows and the characters have a great detailed background's (Sasuke).
Unlike some non-sequitur superhero shows, were a hero will have a special move or power that they only use one time then never use it again and certain villains disappear for great lengths of time, Naruto has his powers all the time and you watch them develop which is realistic. He never randomly uses some move in an episode and then never again or you never watch him fight and his foes develop along side him giving more depth to the story.
Naruto was so good Nickeloden made Avatar: The Last Airbender to compete.

Where... the eff, does that happen? Most of the damn time, he is traveling, getting his ass kicked, coming back for another beating, and then winning. He is never in any 'Deep Concerning Affairs'.
emotional attached to the character
Yeah... sure... I am gonna get attached to a Spaz ass Ninja, who wears orange, and yells 'BELIEVE IT!' all the time, hell, the only time Naruto get's good, is in Shippuden, where he NEVER say's Believe it. And the only character who I ever liked in Naruto was Hinata, a side character.

hm... Can't say anything that won't get me banned for flaming... I leave this one blank
Thats three moves out of how many hundreds for all the characters. Hey I'm Optimus Prime let me use this battle axe that comes out of my arm one time then I will never use it again in any other episode. (However Im a fan of Transformers)

You watch him eating ramen noodles in some episodes, you watch him go to ninja school for like a season worth of epsidoes. Thats a lot of time to get attached and understand his background. Naruto goes to the hokages funeral, you watch him train with Jiraiya, there's episodes were you see who he has a crush on, you watch him goof around and get in trouble with the hokage, all this stuff fleshes out the character so that when something happens to him youll actually give a crap. Unless you want a show that plays out like Rob Zombies Halloween 2 were no one gives a crap about the paper thin characters with barely any back story (aside from meyers).
Naruto ends up battling for i dont know his life, his friends lives and for his city, if thats not deep or concerning then I dont know.

Nothing special as far as an anime goes. Has most of the cliches, nothing really original.
I'll give it this, you feel like you know every knook and cranny of the Hidden Leaf 'village' after you watch a while of it.

Rasengan, Giant Rasengan, and Sasuke
I think what SoulHack is saying is that Naruto usually uses Rasengan once in everybattle to end the battle. Sorta like the kamehameha in DBZ, a lame over powered move that makes the rest of the battle senseless.
Oh, and I stopped watching Naruto after Sasuke left and then battled Naruto in that area that copies Argonath (the place in LOTR that has those 2 giants statues of kings over the river Anduin.) I heard it was nothing but filler after that anyways, but up to that point I would give the show and the movies a combined 7/10.

I gotta pay more attention next time I watch and look for that. Yeah I stopped watching it though ,too. I dont have the time to watch a 300 + episode series. True, it isnt the best anime but I enjoyed it enough.
