Since I've now fallen deep in crush with Naruto, I've been rapidly downloading episodes. My anime pimptress Daizy (I emailed you about her [livejournal.com profile] octopedingenue, did you get that mail?) is performing emergency maintenence on her server since it broke yesterday, so I can't get anymore from her for a few days. Curses. A few days in my condition means sudden death without a fix. So I started downloading them from Kazaa. This is slow and inefficient (sometimes 30K a minute....sometimes 0.3K), but it will have to do for the moment.

So far over the weekend I've seen 1-5 and 7 and 8. Which leaves me on a bitch of a cliffhanger.

Anyway, this whole post was really just to tell you that I'm training myself to sleep with the computer running. The noise is a bitch, but I'll get used to it. I want to see if I can.

I'm trying to use bit torrent 3.3 but I don't think it's working very well. Or at all, really. It "starts"... but doesn't actually download anything and is frozen at 0%.

Is there a better version I should use? (old or new, I don't care)
timepiececlock: (one of those bad witch days)
Damn, I love this show.

Just when I was starting to get leery fo the pacing of the story (the first big fight was prolonged), it goes and gives me this. Yet another little gem of character analyzation and exploration. I really love the way the writer[s] are treating Naruto's orphan childhood. It's not just used as a point of angst or and the fallback complaint/reason for anything bad that happens, explained once and then ignored, or used as a trump card to instantly make the audience feel bad for him-- it's actually explored, and the adults around Naruto have a generally realistic and thoughtful, compassionate opinion of the whole thing. I think what I'm liking the most about this so far is how the adult characters treat the children. The relationships feel realistic and believable, as does the most of the dialogue. It's not like in some shows, where the adults let the "magical child" character have great dangerous adventures and remain totally ignorant or apathetic or supportive ::coughInuYashaSailorMooncough::. The ninja teachers and the Hokage seem to let the youngsters have free reign when it will teach them a lesson, and then willfully drag them back to reality when necessary. Also, how the younger character regard the adults is interesting too. It was great in the first episode to see Naruto's relationship with Iruka, and then in the episodes 4-11, it was also great to see Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura begin to trust and idolize their sensei Kakashi.

Also, Kakashi totally is Chichiri from Fushigi Yuugi, reincarnated. I swear it to be true. It's the only explanation.
