Toonami introducing Naruto in 2005 was peak

2000's kids were blown away the moment this show was introduced

I was there! I will never forget that moment! Shout out to who ever greenlit DBZ, Naruto growing up. Change my life completely. Went from flintstones, scoobie doo, jetsons, Johnny bravo, Dexter laboratory to DBZ! A real 90s kid

Me when Blood and Thunder started playing:

Toonami somehow managed to keep the music and aesthetic so drippy. Way ahead of its time. Whoever was the creative director deserves $50m's

What a time to be alive

Are we not going to talk about how a commercial is being narrated by OPTIMUS FREAKING PRIME?!?!?

Sasuke getting his chin fried by that lee kick is still funny after all these years

Childhood memories unlocked 🥹🥹

Blood and Thunder has one of the coolest guitar riffs ive ever heard awesome choice for a promo.

I would see this as a kid and still avoid it cuz mfs was Naruto running and I wanted no part of it. Then high school came around and I sat down and watched it. Top 5 of all time. Pain is the greatest antagonist to ever be created!!!

This is what stated sub anime for me. The dub was on week six or seven and I couldn't wait a week between episodes and ended up on free download site.

Talk about a trip down memory lane! OG Naruto x OG Toonami 🔥

I was there!!

They knew how to give you that adrenaline shot through a tv screen.

I remember this time

What a journey for naruto to become hokage.

“for centuries peace and prosperity had ruled the land” biggest cap ever. they was killing each other for centuries

how does 2004 animation hit harder than now

Man. When this show first dropped gang life changed .

Take me back in time. 🦊🥷🏻
