Really like the First episode the first episode of Naruto is a masterclass in scriptwriting because it perfectly balances slapstick humor with a deeply moving narrative about isolation and the transformative.

Naruto starts funny, loud, and even annoying, then slowly shifts into an emotional story of a lonely boy who just wants to be seen, accepted, and recognized by everyone.

The first episode is simple, emotional, and really engaging. It quickly makes you understand the main character and root for him. The tone is heartfelt, the story is easy to follow, and it leaves you curious to see how his journey unfolds.

Naruto Episode 1 focuses more on loneliness than action. His prankster behavior hides rejection and isolation, which makes the Mizuki twist land harder. The Iruka–Naruto bond gives emotional weight. A grounded, character-first introduction. Rating: 8.5/10

Good pacing and intro to characters. Good hook for main character albeit it had to be that regular irritating dumb-ish protag
