Naruto; It's not just for us anymore
So I'm walking into the supermarket this morning. Dad's buying some oil for the car, I just head to the magazine section like always. Anyway, I turn into the eisle, and I see some little kid with some leatherly-like bandanna. It just caught my eye, I look closer and it's a freakin' Konoha head band. My first reaction was a smack to my head. The kid looked up at me, I kinda found it hilarious, so hilarious that I had to call up my friend Dan so I could laugh some more. Later in the day I was in Barnes & Noble, of course in the Manga section. Some little kid is with his mom and guess what manga he was looking for? That's right Gravitation............... er I mean Naruto. I know when you see little kids adoring the stuff that was once underground for you, and now you realize you aren't an indivdual anymore, you like some show that little kids do. Hey, I think that sometimes, but you also have to realize that manga and anime wasn't only made for us teenage otakus so we can go on the internet and laugh at the face of the dubbies. I think it's kinda cool seeing kids getting into it, sure they're not like us, but hey, it's freedom of choice. When I have kids, and they watch and read this crap, they'll be treated like royalty. So in conclusion, it might be lame to see your underground anime get dubbed, and thrown into the hands of little kids, but just remember that they have the right to watch it just as much as we do. Hey, we can still make fun of them for saying the wrong technique names :3.
Oh, I also picked up the first One Piece Color Walk, and I love it to death.
