I think that both Toriyama's World and the ANBU~ONE translations are being held back til after the anime expo to make sure that Naruto doesn't get liscensed. Wait til somtime mid week for it.

i love naruto and 39 will be coming out july 2nd or 3rd or whatever...naruto is tight!!

Naruto is gonna get licensed, since the game is comming out for gamecube and the game got a rating of 9.5/10 so i think were pretty much screwed

-- Anonymous, July 02, 2003

Well they should still keep fansubbing it even if it gets licensed. I've never liked any official dubs. I am not gonna waste money on DVDs since I don't have it.

So if i'm correct they will sub Naruto ep 39, but not today. Well It is getting very anoying b'cause the series are going on the dragonball-tour. Wich means that within a year Naruto still wont be a chuunin(or something like it), and we wont even remember what that final examination is about. Dont get me wrong I really like Naruto, but its starting to drag a bit, and that's what sucjs about it. Perhaps they should create two eps a week that way it wont drag as much as it does right now :p.

I love Naruto, and I hate how the episodes always end in the middle of a important battle or something, it leaves you craving for more after each episode...so what does naruto getting licensed mean? it means we cannot get for free anymore?! that would make me terribly sad...and even worse, very angry. I've read it will be released by Aeon Anbu like the 3rd or fourth...I'm dying to know though so I can DL it as soon as it comes out.

-- Anonymous, July 02, 2003

Really? The 3rd or 4th huh?

Alright, I'll be ready.

And...I think by getting licensed...you know...the whole...coming to America, through Pioneer or Bandai or something and all this official stuff and getting dubbed...stuff like that...I think.

Alright, I'll be ready tomorrow or the 4th.

I like Naruto too I can't wait til the fansub comes out. Does anyone know why the episode didn't air in Japan until today? Did they they have some sort of series marathon or something. I just thought it was kind of strange.

WAHHH!!! NARUTO IS GOIN TO GET LICENSED REAL SOON!!! WAHH!!

-- Anonymous, July 03, 2003

NARUTO IS LISCENSED BY VIZ...DAMN...although I am not sure what that means.

Yah, I've been searching all day, usually the sub is out by now. Why the hell would they license naruto in america anyways? isn't it too violent for all those little kiddies on kids wb to watch? I will scream if they turn it into the mess of horrible voices and scenes like they were sent through a meat processor, botched up and all.

We'll all just have to pray that they don't license it, and keep looking for episode 39, most sites seem confident that nothing about licensing is happening though

The preview at the end of that episode looks totally wicked, but I don't remember kakashi fighting orochimaru in the manga, oh well, whatever. LET'S PRAY FOR EPISODE 39!!!

you can find episode 39, at http:// umm... ill get to you on that

The manga is already licensed... just hope the anime is not... but i guess it would be ok if we went to buy it if it was licensed... i know plenty of stores...

Kerri u know there is plenty of licensed anime that isn't WB- butchered. Eva is an excellent example. No y that's showing on TV in full netime soon o.o

Naruto almost makes me wanna be Japanese or live in japanese or whatever, just so i can see those episodes

-- Anonymous, July 04, 2003

I doubt they'll license Naruto.. just like Shaman King, the series has to end at Japan first before they air it in America. Shaman King will be airing this fall '03 and the Anime ended back in 2001. So it will take time for Naruto to air in the U.S. Naruto is license by Viz, but that's only the Manga Part. So yeh.. just in case some B.S. happens let's all pray that the Anime will not get license until 2005. Screw English Dubs and Toonami.. screw em all!!!

I kinda agree with the person who said that they won't license the anime until it's over in Japan. Maybe it's wishful thinking. Either ways lets hope nothing happens to the fansubs cause you guys are right most of the dubs do suck. Naruto is addicting but it's great.

personally i have watched all naruto episodes up to 38 in the space of 2 days now striaght after i start watching it gets licensed :P tell me im a bitch =] http://gftp.jav.net/temp/cnn-mirror/story-1523e423634sdg2352fad.html

WTF ? FRENCH ? i reckon WW3 is coming

-- Anonymous, July 04, 2003

The could do the license one set of episodes at a time... give us a chance to watch the incomnig serious...

Thank God for the manga.. I don't know if I can hold off on the story if they license the whole thing before it is even out.

If its true that Naruto was licensed by Viz I think that means that our favorite fansubbers Anbu-Aone and TW wil stop fansubbing. Who is a hardcore Naruto fan that will fansub this series anyway?

-- Anonymous, July 04, 2003

If they do show it in the states there gonna cut alot of scenes...belive me i've seen the dubbed and the subs of other anime and the dubbed sucked....well i doubt that they'll stop fansubbing Naruto....hopefully.

-- Anonymous, July 05, 2003

Well thats the end of that, it looks like there won't be anymore official fan-subs for Naruto since its been licensed. It was good while it lasted. Those who have satellite can watch it in from Japan and those who don't well...I guess you'll just have to wait for it to be released in North America.

-- Anonymous, July 06, 2003

lies all lies! fansubbing will never stop even if it is liscenced it might now be officially fansubbed ne more but some sob somewhere will saves us all and sub them for us i hope kuz i just watch 1-38 in 3 days and must have more story line or i will go on a rampage i think. i didnt stay up until 6 am then go to work at 8 just to find out i wont see nething new for atleast 6 months so if ne 1 one knows who is doing the unofficial fansubs let me know ty

-- Anonymous, July 06, 2003

A lot of animes don't get fully fan-subbed because of licensing. So, what makes you think someone will sub all 100+ episodes of this just for you. If the official fan-subbers give up it's very unlikely someone else will pick the task. In case you didn't know subbing ain't easy and it's frowned upon for ppl to sub licensed animes. The whole point of fan-subbing is to encourage official licensing. Although it would be nice to see the rest of Naruto fan-subbed but at this point it looks very unlikely.

I think Naruto is one of the best anime i have seen in the past year. However, if it were to be licensed it would be terrible for all the fans out there. The waiting from Anbu-one and especially Toriyama World is a definite killer. If you guys wanna know what really happens read the manga. It's way past the tourney. Just wanna say...Sasuke is a beast and watch Gaara..there's a suprising turn of events! :)

-- Anonymous, July 06, 2003

Naruto might get licensed by funimation by some confidential information. I checked several websites and saw that they are deciding whether to bring it to america or not. if they do they r just puchasing 12 episodes because they won't know if the ratings will go high.
