Believe it?

I will readily admit that everybody is entitled to their opinions. As misguided as some opinions may be, everybody is entitled to them. For example, there are some people who hold onto the belief that Mario is still a franchise with good games, and whilst these people are very fucking wrong, it's not very nice to attack such people, and illogical as there are laws protecting the mentally disadvantaged.

However, there is an exception to this particular rule. This comes in the form of the "Narutard" Such a creature is so named as a portmantaeu of the words "Naruto" and "retard". Naruto, for those of you who have never heard of it, rare and fortunate as you are, is an anime based around a ninja training school. And is shit. The whole series is remarkably Western, which is always a bad characteristic for an anime, but justified. As far as I can tell, the entire thing is based around sounding slightly Japanese, trying to be Dragonball-Z and providing an chance for pre-pubescent females to pretend that they're "cool" and "alternative". And lure older men who should know better into their scrawny embrace just so they can win more respect in the eyes of their fellows for having an older boyfriend.

I fail utterly to see why, in any possible reality, such a shoddy excuse for a program could ever have been approved, except possibly just to grab cash from kids who know no better, and as something to easily spawn merchandise, for example swirl headband things which look like a cunt printed on a chunk of metal attached to cheap fabric. I can't see at all why anybody would watch this, but then nobody understands why I cut out paperchains of people holding hands, attach them to a fan, whilst switching the lights on and off so I can hold my own personal rave.
