    The Naruto Anime Series is Licensed

    Due to the licensing of the Naruto anime series by ShoPro Entertainment, and the announcement that Naruto will be airing on Cartoon Networks Toonami, we regret to inform you that our Naruto BitTorrent has been removed. This was not a decision that was made by NarutoFan.com, if we had things our way we would certainly not have removed the BitTorrent. The website our BitTorrent was sourced off of removes all licensed anime as soon as they are licensed. As of now there is no way to download the Naruto anime series through BitTorrent, but we will do our best to keep providing the Naruto content we have all become familiar with. Please check back often and read our news for updates.

    Cartoon Network today announced several major acquisitions for their venerable Toonami action-animation block. Fan-favorite "Naruto" will join the block in the third quarter of 2005... - Narutofan.com

    what? please explain. I'm gonna be really pissed if I left in a perpetual cliffhanger after episode 121...

    edit: A quick search brings me to:

    Naruto Anime Licensed by ShoPro Entertainment

    Today marks an interesting change of pace in the world of Naruto. ShoPro Entertainment has recently announced that they have acquired the TV, home video, and merchandising rights to Naruto. But, before you start pulling your hair out, realize that this will likely mean very little change around Chuushin and the Naruto community as a whole. AonE has announced they plan to continue fansubbing, meaning that at the very least we'll have one quality group continuing the series. ANBU and Dattebayo have yet to comment, but one would guess that unless either of them takes lightly to the thought of losing 99.9% of their fanbase, they'd be wise to continue subbing the anime. Unfortunately, key BitTorrent listings/trackers such as AnimeSuki and Scarywater will surely be removing their Naruto downloads. If you'd like to read more information on the matter, please click here for the full article, compliments of AnimeNewsNetwork.

    In any case, you may still look forward to this week's regularly scheduled airing of Naruto episode 122, a raw of which we should be seeing Wednesday, assuming that SaiyaMan/L33t Raws don't let us down over this licensing mess. But, regardless the anime's licensing, nothing will be changing in the Naruto manga world - chapter 248 will be released later this week, as usual. Have a nice day.

    Well I haven't been into anime hardcore in a couple years, but hopefully the dub won't suck when it airs on CN...

    Cartoon Network is gearing Naruto towards children, so they're going to mangle some parts up. If it was on Adult Swim, then it might not have been as bad.

    The RAWs will probably still be provided by Saiyaman. He released Inuyasha and Yugioh raws after they were licensed.

    I got hooked when I saw the fight bewteen Gaara and Lee at a friends house. I got the chills when Lee dropped the weights from his legs and started landing on the up to then unhittable Gaara. I was like "damn I gotta start watching this anime series. "

    Does anyone know where I can get the BitTorrents for "Case Closed"? I freaking loved that show, too bad Adult Swim stoped airing it.

    It's called Detective Conan in Japan and there's around 350 episodes. You'll have no problem searching under that name.

    I'll bet you are talking about Big O.

    the opening theme bears a resemblance to that song.
