I hate how so many people will either just bash the anime and its fans or you have the people who say how this is the best anime ever. Well sorry this isn't the best anime ever. Naruto is a above average anime that has its kinks and flaws as with any anime.
The Story itself is decent. You follow the main character around in his exploits as a ninja. You see him and his team develop throughout as well as others.
Dialogue can be annoying but also fun. As with pretty much any action anime, when they should be fighting you get them talking. Never got it that you will stop fighting just to talk and explain everything to the other fighter....Though you do have those moments between team members and just moments where dialogue is producing an emotional effect for the viewer.
Animation well that is typical. They do well and most things seem fluid and polished.
Entertainment is surely there for anime action anime person. You have your various fights and ton of different types of techniques.

Like I said this isn't the best anime and I will never get how people can constantly say it is. Good anime to give a shot, but I recommend after episode 137 or 138 just skip to Shippuudden if you want to see what happens next cause one bad this about the Naruto series and a few other series is they are overly abundant with fillers cause anime caught to the manga to quick. (show less)
