Naruto is my favorite show of all time

Listen, I know I’m catching up and late to this but the red duster bit and Emily roasting Caldwell was so funny, I am in stitches!! The way it cracked all of you up is just so priceless lol
abfg616
That most ominous title
Meapyboy1234567
XD them saying shi poo den for shippuden and na ruto for naruto just was really funny for me
Meuce
I wore the red duster Caldwell, and you were wise to recognize ahead that it would never work. Sadly I never learn, so I eventually got the Naruto vest and surprise surprise, great way to get some extra pockets on a hot day.
Michael Singer
I started watching Naruto because of y’all… believe it!
Nikolaus Cox
The first time I ever hosted a party at my parent's place when they were out of town, a party that involved alcohol no less, I made sure to prepare goody bags for all my guests: I wanted the experience to feel curated and special. It was pirate-themed, and I bought everyone pirate figurines and pirate-themed treats and, lemme tell yah, it went down very well. From then on I just had friends over and we got drunk and vomited, but that first party, with the goody bags and the pirate toys? Huge hit. I gottah bring it back!
Jennifer
this made me start watching naruto and now i can’t stop help 😭
AJ
This is the first time in all naddpod and 8bbc that I’ve had to look up what the tangent was on because I had no idea what jnco jeans were and can’t believe they were popular 😂😂😂
Sarah
Okay, But what was Murph going to bet that he was right about? We moved on before he could make his statement.
Jesymka
For our first in person season after Covid, one of my groups did loot bags and we all contributed something lol it was mostly retro candy
Emily
According to Google: in anime, nosebleed mostly happens to a character being sexually aroused. It is an exaggeration of having high blood pressure when a real person is sexually aroused.
Spam gaming the not so skilled gamer (thanks jake)
I fucking love trigun
I really want them to watch the dubbed version of Ghost Stories
Morose Psych
I would watch naruto each week as it got released, and when the main story got put on hold for fillers it hurt my very soul
Darth_Xionn
Caldwell talking shit about Bleach? It's so good though!
Samuel Barton
Yalls should just dive into HunterXHunter
Dalton Elliott
This made me finally want to start Naruto after years of growing up confused, watching out of context episodes on Toonami. Im over 13 episodes in now and fully hooked. I would gush with Emily about Kakashi Sensai all day lmao
preston packer
Jesus that takes me back. Some times certain episodes weren't on yt so I had to jump over to vimeo for certain eps. And pre load tabs of upcoming eps so when the internet went out at midnight (parental control) I had a few episodes loaded and ready to go for late night binging. Thank you for that memory
Saru
"how do you know if an episode is filler" back in my day when you could still watch anime in three parts on Youtube someone in the comment section would have told you how many episodes you had to skip for to get back to the main plot. this mixed bag was nostalgic af
Sean Rooney
Where is the best place to watch Naruto? I think my Funimation subscription is still going. Which reminds me I need to finish AoT
Sean Rooney
FANTASTIC movie. God so good
Sean Rooney
So much anime talk and never any credit to FMA. I'd love their discussion on it
Sam Killjoy
When Murph said: “I have nipples, Naruto, can you milk me” ….. I lost it. I have not laughed that hard in a very long time
“Filler episodes” the anime.
Can’t wait for Jake to watch Cowboy Bebop and want to be everything that Spike is.
Jessica Olsen
my husband and i JUST finished shippuden
Lol I’m ready for jakes next character to be based on someone from naruto 🤣
Started watching Naruto again, thanks two crew. Also got legitimately emotional at the first episode - shed a tear towards the end when Iruka was talking to Naruto with the shuriken in his back
Wit & Whimsy
Mixed Bag Recommendation: RWBY. I’d love y’all’s takes on it
clevername
I want a podcast that's just Jake and Caldwell with them watching different anime and giving their reviews.
As someone who has recently become insanely obsessed with Naruto this year (binged it all) I would pay so much money for them to just keep watching episodes and talking about it later haha
I hope they open the next mixed bag with Caldwell’s “what’s in your mixed bag?” question again! Everyone’s different interpretation of the question was so fun, from Murph’s recent fanny pack to Emily’s nostalgic party favours bag. Imagine as they discuss bags, and pair of thieves underwear, and increasingly tangential topics as a chaotic appetiser before the main meal can commence
Caldwell dissing on Bleach is fighting words!
DMCDawg
Man mixed bags like this are my favorite. I miss 8 Bit Book Club so much! This one was amazing! Thanks crew!
H-Train
if you want a challenge, for the next mixed bag, watch all 1000 episodes of one piece
H-Train
didn’t the animation for sds get, like, famously bad after a while? they call it seven deadly frames for a reason
Humble Goblin
I want them to show jake the rock lee fight so bad
I might start watching naurito
You want a beautiful anime, watch The Seven Deadly Sins on Netflix.
Victoria Shotts
😯 whoa, thanks for sharing Lou lololol seriously I was curious tho why it was forbidden
Victoria Shotts
Love this!!
Victoria Shotts
In the short rest for The Killing Blow, Caldwell mentions this as a mixed bag idea and somehow Jake talks his way out of it by telling Emily he hates Harry Potter. Now literal years later, Jake is officially "ruined"🤣😂
Kara
I wish I could find the original but I think it was taken down, but there is a video of Miyazaki shitting on his son’s first movie. This is all I could find https://youtu.be/cFq773ntzTQ
a player-leaning justice should appreciate that JoJo works entirely on rule of cool
Hordopho
I would love for them to watch Food Wars and all that horny energy involved.
Please do JoJo’s bizarre adventure next. I would love to hear Jake and Caldwell talk about some buff ass dudes.
Flonc
I really do hope Jake keeps going. I'd love to hear his take on best parts, like Zabuza fight, Rock Lee fight during chunnin exams (or the exam in its entirety honestly), Sasuke arc etc.
Bat-Fran
Oh, also there's a full on naturo ttrpg with all the mechanics worked out...... Hint hint
Bat-Fran
Waw no mentions yet but: Believe it was the amazing filler word they came up with because in the Japanese he says "dattebayo" which is more if a verbal punctuation than anything else, but a very informal and usually childish way.... Why they felt this warrented a catchphrase is beyond me but thankfully when Naruto grows us, so does his speech patterns. Love that you guys did this. I can see Naruto has influenced a lot if Murph's writing (not a bad thing) and it's great to hear Jake's thoughts! Also... Of caus Caldwell knows uzumaki... Y'all need to read uzumaki 😂
Graham Starr
I’d never seen naruto before and watched the first episode to prep to this mixed bag and wtf it’s so good! Watched 5 episodes after the mixed bag ended. Just gotta watch it!
Murph forgot WHY the beetle plan failed. Naruto literally farted on it
More anime please! I was thinking of other ones you guys should check out and decided to rewatch a bit of fullmetal alchemist brotherhood and I think it would be a fun one for the podcast.
GREYFOX!!!!!
Vash. Is only 5:11 apparently. Fun fact The multi-shadow clone jutsu is forbidden because, if performed incorrectly, can kill the user. One would perform this technique incorrectly by unevenly splitting the users chakra amongst the clones or using too much chakra. Naruto only was able to use this jutsu because immense chakra reserves.
GREYFOX!!!!!
It's happening
Taylor Schult
Star Wars wipes have aged sooooo poorly
Cole
When can we get Caldwell’s anime/manga podcast cause I would be here for that
Rob T
I totally looked up a list of all Naruto episodes that separate then out from filler and main show. Worth it
bj cox
I loved this episode, I think you guys should do a dnd one shot in the naruto universe!
Garga Lenoir
1. I think the Driving License episode is how you should do a filler. Since there are no real stakes anyway you might as well have a comedic episode, and it harkens back to the era when Dragon Ball was comedy first and action second (which i much preferred). 2. Wait you guys even get Emily haters on the 10$ tier?? How? Where? 3. I LOVE the 8bbc episodes but do you think that you could do short rests from the pre patreon episodes again? I love me some heavy nostalgia from not even that long ago.
Garga Lenoir
Witch good reason, it starts weak. But it gets insanely good!
chophouse
1. Why am I crying listening to a comedy podcasts talk about the first episode of Naruto. 2. When I was a wee lad I had one pair of jncos with a blue flaming snake on the left buttcheek and they were glorious.
Vayne
You know they're off the rails when Emily has to reign them in lol
Harry B
You should watch Your Name for a complete change of anime pace.
For everyone who lived through the early 2000s, here’s a reminder of the energy that Naruto AMVs brought : https://youtu.be/pAHjGoNuHsQ
Adam Haikal
Please watch Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. I can just tell Brian and Emily would love it, Jake would also probably (I'm pretty sure Caldwell has already seen it).
Kyle Coad
ps it has a top teir english dub, though the OG japanese also rules
Kyle Coad
loved this ep and am loving these mixed bags. everything y'all do delights me and i thank you for it. as a rec (caldwell back me up), i Know emily and murph and jake will love full metal alchemist: brotherhood. 55 ish eps and it is freakin world class guys. have a nice day! i'm enjoying a yuzu lager and brushing my cat.. happy sunday everyone may the sun shine with you
Dave Johnson
I'm a basic binch, give me my English dub
The whole episode im just thinking, man Jake would love JuJutsu Kaisen and at the end I had a breath of relief when Caldwell confirmed they knew about it like, phew, they know.
FusRohNahSon
Did someone say Metal City Sonic?
Cliff
When Emily mentioned the Swarm Keeper subclass being like Shino, did anyone else want to see a Naruto-esque/ Ninja themed Dnd campaign where they all do a monk multiclass? Like doing ninja scrolls instead of spell books, having that structure of a four man squad going on missions, reflavoring spells for jutsu like Benign Transposition or even swapping places via the Manifest Echo feature as the substitution jutsu. It would really fun to see what kind of multiclass combinations they could come up with.
Keith Kelly
Also: If you ever watch JoJo's, start with the S2 dub. S2 is the first VIZ worked on. It and all subsequent seasons are completely different from S1.
Micah
I used to work with some some people that were super into Anime. They talked me into trying Naruto. They didn't say why but they strongly advised me to watch the Sub. Normally, I would agree, I prefer Subs to Dubs on MOST Anime. But, it's been hard for me to ONLY focus on shows so I usually play a video game when I watch things. Can't read the screen when you're looking at a different screen. So DUB it was. I came to work the next day and said I couldn't do it. They laughed and two of them looked at me and said "Believe it!" That was about 5 years ago and I haven't tried it again. BUT TRIGUN!!!!! Watch that shit... That is my 2nd favorite Anime. It's so good.
Keith Kelly
Fun fact: the same person at VIZ does localization of the dub & subs. She also works on Boruto and Hunter x Hunter. She's super rad. Unless you're watching on Crunchyroll. They do their own subs.
Jacob Tingle
OMG please please have Jake watch the first episode of Trigun. Then the second to the last episode.
Kris Barnes
Thank you Caldwell for the Jujutsu Kaisen and Demon Slayer shoutout
Brendan Meehan
Caldwell mentioned that he loves a good shonen show, and I'm kind of wondering what other ones he's a fan of. I think Naruto is the only one the gang mentions with any regularity (and may the only one Caldwell, Emily and Murph have all seen some of), but I'd wonder about his opinion on One Piece, Bleach, My Hero Academia, Rurouni Kenshin, InuYashu etc. too. I'd assume Caldwell is the only one with extensive exposure to them at least, going off what they've said.
Josiah Muskrat
I know it’s been addressed; and Murph says it’s a show for children, but I really think you guys should do an Avatar: The Last Airbender mixed bag. Maybe pick two episodes from S2 or 3, since Murph didn’t like the pilot. ❤️❤️❤️
Birdie
My fave people reviewing my absolute favorite thing ever, I'm so terrified 🤣😅
Frank
You and me both Twisty
Please for the love of Bahamut watch HunterXHunter
Twisty Carpetwords
Hearing the old 8-bit book club theme song instantly took me back to a happy time and place.
Anna Green
Next up: Jake watches the first episode of Full Metal Alchemist:Brotherhood. Please! He’d love it!
Abe C
Not even 10 minutes in and already I have to say 1) Please release a NADDPOD Fannypack (The Balnorpack????) 2) should definitely do One Punch Man (subtitle version) next. Beautiful DBZ animation while still being self aware of how silly the world is.
Dallon Taylor
ive never seen a single episode of naruto, i just very much needed jakes review 🤣
Damodar
Since 8BitBookClub is pseudo back will you watch more Donkey Kong country? You didn’t even get to the Leo Luster episodes.
Canid
Iruka sensei holding it down while lord 3rd and Kakashi sensei be fucking up.
Jack
Wait, kakashi has his nose covered 😳
Curtis Legault
Naruto definitely does say Dattebayo 😂 at the end of like.. every sentence
Diana
Can we please see some jnco pics?
BertFromOhio
I'm so happy to hear this!
Burhan H Sarwar
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO
K
Hell yeah!
Jack James

shahshahsbizadv
