I was wondering what would be so bad if naruto got licesened. I mean the worst thing that would happen is that 4 kids would pick it up, but what if it appeared on Adult Swim, that wouldn't be too bad. Also we would eventually get naruto games for ps2 and gamecube. And if the voices on adult swim suck ass we could still download the episodes from AONE right?
IIRC, Aone is an ethical fansub group meaning they would stop subbing it if it were licenced, thats a huge issue.
Also 99% of the time, English dub sounds much worse then its japanese counter part ... For the current fans of Naruto, having it licensed would be a huge blow to the community

Go import them then if you really want them. Since you read the manga or watch the anime the story in them isnt gonna be important at all.i didnt know they would stop subbing it if it got licensed but i was just wondering i just want to sink my teeth into those naruto games.
GBA games are universal and to play imported GCN games just get a freeloader ($20). You'd have to mod your ps2 for imports thou (as far as I know any way)
the problems with your logic are:
A. we'd still need to wait a few years for the english version to get to ep 75...
B. English subbing\Dubbing is really low quality (NINJA CENTERFOLD, enough said).
C. not all of us are living in USA, for example, in my country, we have about five animes airing: DBZ, CCS, Bayblade, YGO, and an occisional Cowboy Bepop... having Naruto licenced won't effect my TV sechduale for about eight years...
D. The Naruto games are probably raging between the quailty of 'crap' and 'fun for a week', while the MANGA\Anime is much better... having the manga scanlated is 1st choice, then the anime, and onlt then the OST's and Games...

You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

Not necessarily IIRC Mezzo DSA has been licensed for a while and Aone is still subbing and gotwoot is releasing it, so check your sources on that.
ooh! my first post!

If it gets licensed then it will be on dvds which would most likely have dual language option so we could enjoy it with the original Japanese seiyuu.
Most likely the dub will suck but no worries here.

Either way, some group will rip it when it's on DVD anyway... it dosen't matter..
thats some scary talk...please stop or it might actually happen.

they used to have a bundle pack of the game + freeloader for $70 and free shipping if you preordered it....but its still not bad of a deal, considering the game most likely will NEVER come out in the USA

Right now, they can legally sub Naruto and we can legally d/l it. If it becomes licensed, it becomes illegal for the subbing and the d/ling. That's a very bad thing. For us.
I think I know precisely what I mean
when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
That's why you have to enjoy it that much more now, before it becomes the next Dragonball Z in the states, mais no?
Generally speaking, though, I don't think we have anything to worry about. Hell, One Piece is on episode 160 or something ridiculous, and it's still unlicensed. I think it's in the producing companies' best interests to keep Naruto in Japan until that market is milked dry before exporting it to the United States, opening up a whole new market and revitalizing the old one (hell, they just came out with another DBZ game here....)
Um, and if you import, get the PS2 game. The controls and scenery are much tighter than its Gamecube counterpart, and even though it was released about four, five months ago it's still current on the anime story and will be for the next month or two.
i heard it kinda gets boring rather fast. I can see why though, since every time someone pulls off a move you spend 5 minutes just executing it. The ps2 one follows the manga, which is why some things are colored a little differently and the graphics were deliberately simplified and made to look kinda crappy compared to the GCN version. You'd have to rip your ps2 apart to mod it for support with the game, and it doesnt even have 4 player support like GCN's does. If you're into multiplayer games, then why settle for 2?Originally posted by: jonny-mt

Dude, I don't speak a bit of Japanese apart from the odd baka or yosh, and I own both Gamecube games, I can get through them both fine. There are so many translation FAQs it's not funny. PLEASE don't let that stop you.Originally posted by: SaSuKeRuLeS

yeah i cant read any japanese either but since its just a fighting game, its no big deal. The only problem i have with not being able to read it is for those modifiers that players can individually select before a VS matchOriginally posted by: CmDr_RavEn

The single-player missions and unlocking the different characters are a lot of fun. Yeah, I kind of wish that there was more player support, but the two-player matches are still a lot of fun, and I love the big jutsus because they both look cool and transfer into the regular game--Sasuke and Kakashi get Sharingan, Sasuke gets power from the cursed seal, and Naruto gets chakra from the Kyuubi. It might just be that I played the PS2 game first, but it just feels more complete.Originally posted by: AssertnFailure

Actually I heard on a Anime website that the naruto anime HAS been licensed by cartoon network and is coming to adult swim. They havent been working on it because Adult Swim/Cartoon Network hasnt found a dubbing company ie. Pioneer to dubb the anime for them. Thats why it hasnt been major news to all the naruto sites or major news on the official japanese naruto site. I could be wrong. Actually I pray to god IM WRONG because frankly I prefer Naruto on Japanese and fansubbed by Bakasan or Anbu whichever one has the fansub first.
Some guy name XXRock Lee UnlockedXX on narutoforums posted the link to the site but since the stupid forums dissapperared the link to it is gone
with this post you are clearly just thinking about yourself and all other americans. what about us who live in europe we havent even seen dbz on tv yet. a license of naruto would be a disaster. and this has been dicussed so many times please dont make repeat threads just search.Originally posted by: SaSuKeRuLeS
