An anime noob, an anime moderate, and an anime adept watch Naruto every week and slowly lose their minds. This is Narushow, a podcast about Naruto.
The Narushow podcast is a must-listen for any fan of Naruto. At first, I was unsure about the podcast, but as a new fan of Naruto myself, I found it to be the perfect outlet to discuss and explore the show. The hosts, Tim, Taylor, and Emily, are absolutely awesome. Their recaps of the episodes are entertaining and engaging, making it easy to listen to them for hours on end. Whether you're an old fan or new to Naruto like me, this podcast is a great way to immerse yourself in the world of Naruto.
One of the best aspects of The Narushow podcast is definitely the hosts themselves. Tim, Taylor, and Emily bring such enthusiasm and humor to each episode that it's impossible not to get caught up in their excitement. They have great chemistry together and their discussions about Naruto often lead to hilarious moments. It's also refreshing to hear their initial reactions as two out of three hosts haven't seen the show before. This provides a unique perspective and adds an extra layer of entertainment value.
Another great aspect of this podcast is how it adds depth to my experience as a Naruto fan. As someone who has watched Naruto multiple times, listening to The Narushow allows me to rediscover elements within the show that I may have overlooked before. The hosts often make predictions and try to guess what happens next, which keeps me engaged even though I already know what will happen. The foreshadowing throughout the series is beautifully put together, and hearing the hosts discuss it only enhances my appreciation for Naruto's storytelling.
However, one possible drawback of this podcast is that sometimes the hosts veer off-topic and talk about things unrelated to Naruto. While this can be entertaining in its own right, some listeners may prefer a more focused discussion solely on Naruto episodes. Additionally, despite their passion for the show and their dedication to creating weekly episodes, waiting for each new episode can be a bit of a challenge for fans who have binged through all the previous episodes. It's a testament to the addictive nature of this podcast that waiting for new episodes can be difficult.
In conclusion, The Narushow podcast is an absolute gem for Naruto fans. With its entertaining hosts and engaging discussions, it's easy to get hooked on this podcast. Whether you're new to Naruto or a long-time fan, The Narushow offers a fun and entertaining approach to the world of Naruto. It not only provides a platform for sharing thoughts and predictions about the show but also deepens your appreciation for Naruto's storytelling. Despite some minor drawbacks, The Narushow is undeniably a must-listen for any Naruto fan.
Episodes discussed: 110 & 111 Unfortunately, this is the last episode of the "Mirai takes care of Kakashi and Guy" arc, but what a pair of episodes to end it on! The team uncovers a secret plot to...kidnap a bunch of sad ladies and sacrifice them to Lord Josh? It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 108 & 109 Tenten best girl. That is all. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 106 & 107 They're fighting like cats and dogs! Mirai goes on an adventure with Kakashi and Guy as they take her on their 20-day long vacation/date. They try to relax, but she can't just let her guard down, can she? Especially when Kiba and Tamaki show up leading armies of cat and dog lovers in a war to prove who has the best pets. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 93-95 Finally, a nice little reprieve from the badness of the last arc. It's Family Day in the Leaf Village, so we follow the kids and their parents around for fun antics! A Jingle All the Way-esque toy hunt, an eating contest, and the return of a certain one-armed absentee father. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 88-92 Sometimes, you just gotta finish the arc you're not enjoying. So, we sprinted through five episodes, just to get mad at Onoki! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 86 & 87 Snore. This arc is taking forever. Whatever. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 84 & 85 We're finally back with the new and improved Narushow! Or, just the continuation of an arc none of us really like. It's fine. Naruto tries to find a rock, helps another guy find a rock, and they move on. It's a pair of episodes, that's for sure! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 82 & 83 So, sometimes Em doesn't watch the episodes until right before we record. And, sometimes, she runs out of time to watch them at all. This is one of those times. Good thing nothing important happens, like, oh, a former kage turning evil or anything. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 80 & 81 Honestly, we recorded this episode very late at night and I don't remember what in the hell anyone talked about. So, enjoy. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 78 & 79 Well, Boruto tried to do a cool summon. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 76 & 77 Like yeah okay, Boruto and crew are off fighting a big snake. But the important thing to know is that we talk about horrifying "salads" for like three hours. It's NARUSHOW!
Tim is out this week, but good news! Taylor watched all of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Em is here to talk through it with him. Turns out? Heck of a TV show. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 74 & 75 We start with a fight between friends and end with a bunch of friends going on a mission to find their other friend. In between, there's some okay combat and a bunch of weird snake ladies giving strange missions to children. All in all, It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 72 & 73 Do you guys think that Mitsuke betrayed the village because he's evil, or he's just a normal character we're going to continue to love and adore for years to come? Guess we'll find out! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 70 & 71 We may be back to the Leaf Village after the big good fight, but don't think that means the Boruto crew is going to be caught lacking! Metal Lee deals with the same brain issue as 2/3 of the Narushow cast, and then Boruto tries to figure out what's harder than diamonds. It's NARUSHOW!
Em is out this week, so it's time for Tim and Taylor to do one of their favorite deep dives...into the forums! This time around, the stalwart myanimelist dot net has become old news, so it's off to Reddit, where the most Reddit people of all time congregate, of course.
Episodes discussed: 65 & 66 This is the best fight in the history of anything Naruto related. End of description. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 63 & 64 We gotta go on a mission to save Naruto! The Hokage has been taken by the evil O...clan and are draining him of his chakra for their own evil needs! Good thing every Kage (and Sasuke (and Boruto)) are on their tail! This is some good Naruto right here. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 61 & 62 Finally, we get some action, baby. But first, Boruto has to feel bad (rightfully) about cheating and his dad needs to publicly shame him. But then, the big bads show up and it's time for things to get extremely real. It's NARUSHOW!
Well, here we are. 250 episodes into Narushow. So, we figured it'd be a good time to stop, take a breather, and look at how we're feeling about Boruto as a whole! Turns out we could...use a few improvements here and there. But it's not all doom and gloom! There's a lot to love. Back next week with a fully new episode of Narushow! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 59 & 60 The tournament arc continues! We get Chocho vs. Shinki, we get Boruto vs. Shikadai, we get Sarada vs. Araya, we get Mitsuki vs. Shinki! All in all, a pile of excellent fights leading up to an...interesting finale. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 57 & 58 The Chunin exams are out in full force this week, first with a very poorly designed capture the flag match. But then! It's finally time! For! The TOURNAMENT ARC!!! Sure, it's gonna be short and not all that interesting but STILL WE'RE HERE BABY. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 55 & 56 Oh baby it's time for the Chunin Exams! The kids get ready to fight each other in extremely fair warfare, Sai and Shikadai unveil the beginnings of their dastardly testing plans, and the guys from the moon come down to Narutoland (which has Australia, by the way). It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 53 & 54 Finally, things are getting moving in Boruto. Naruto fails to show up to his daughter's birthday (kind of), Boruto gets mad, Sasuke shows up, and Boruto tries to learn the Rasengan (with not great results). It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 50-52 The thing about Sasuke is that he tends to bring plot progression with him. Which is fine, we guess. But until then, let's see how the new Team 7 deals with a mission they're not entirely prepared for. White Zetsu is back, baby. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 44-47 This is the most disappointed we've been in the Naruto universe in quite some time. After spending three full episodes setting up a really interesting, uniquely political premise it just....dashes it away. Classic. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 42 & 43 Turns out Boruto (the show) is kind of anti-capitalist! Not only is it pro-labor, it's also got thieves stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. But Boruto (the guy) probably has to learn that lesson. Will he do it? Find out! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 40 & 41 Finally, Boruto gets its very own bridge arc. This time, it's not QUITE as cool as the Haku and Zabuza stuff, but hey, we'll take some actual plot progression while we can. At least Honorable Grandson got to do some cool stuff. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 284-286 Our little detour comes to an end, as Sasuke and Sakura figure out how to deal with the dinosaur army. Or are they dragons? Pretty sure they're dinosaurs. Either way, Sasuke makes friends with one of them. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 282 & 283 We decided to take a lil bit of a detour this week to talk about, well, Sasuke. And Sakura. And dinosaurs? Sure. Either way, this is all part of Em's plan to convince Tim and Taylor that Sasuke is somehow good. We'll see if it works. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 38 & 39 The teams are in! And the kids aren't stoked about it! Right up until they are! Plus, we get deep into Mitsuke's sordid past with...other Mitsukes? Certainly that won't come up again later. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 36 & 37 It's graduation time, everyone! Kakashi is back on that proctor tip, ready to fight some kids who are just trying to get that little bell attached to his belt loop. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 34 & 35 Isn't it a little early for an "Aw, remember all our big adventures together?" episode? Don't we think we should wait...another couple hundred episodes maybe? Or even a couple more life-or-death situations? Oh, we're doing it right now? Because of some big rainbow fish? Alright, I guess! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 32 & 33 Sometimes, dads can just be good, ya know? Sai teaches Inojin a nice little lesson, while Boruto rejects his very nice and kind dad's help when trying to do something nice for his sister. Either way, the dads are trying to give their kids something they never had: A Good Anime Dad. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 1 What's the deal with One Piece? How do you even approach a show this long-running? Tim and Taylor sat down to watch the first episode of the longest anime and break it down. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 30 & 31 Look, it's the end of an arc, okay? That means there's a big fight and the solution happens. The trio are back to talk about everything that happens with the "new" seven swordsmen, it's fine, don't worry about it. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 28 & 29 Fresh off a big argument about chicken wings, the trio dives headfirst into what is clearly the big conflict of this arc. Can the squad stop all those teens from starting a war between the Mist and the Leaf? Can Boruto convince the Mist leadership that this is the right thing to do? Is Narutoland actually Waterworld? It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 26 & 27 Well, we watched these episodes literally a month ago. So, forgive us if we forget some stuff. Luckily, these episodes were relatively memorable, as Laptop gets kidnapped, and Kagura has to draw his sword to save him. It's NARUSHOW!
In case you ever doubted Taylor's ability to talk for 45 minutes, here's an entire solo podcast featuring...just him. Talking about movies, by himself, in his office, for 45 minutes. Yes, it is just Taylor talking for 45 minutes, but hey! It's still Narushow, right?
We always have a tough time scheduling podcasts at the end of the year, so let's talk about video games! Tim and Taylor go over their favorite games of 2022, and go for a WHILE about it. Turns out, they played quite a few good games. Great year for games!
Episodes discussed: 24 & 25 The new arc has begun, with the whole squad of kids taking a little field trip to the Land of Mist. You know, the place known for murder and terrifying swordsmen and those creepy sharpened teeth? This should go just fine. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 22 & 23 There are so may things we gotta worry about in this episode. Sasuke being not ENTIRELY the worst, Chocho not really "getting" what her parental situation is, and also umbilical cords just being kept around for...some reason. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 20 & 21 Finally, we get a big bad villain goin'. Shin and his little Baby Shins are showing up now, and it's time for the kids to deal with his incredibly disgusting bod. And also his lack of teeth. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 18 & 19 We here on Narushow love shows about dads, and specifically owning your dad. As such, these episodes are great for exactly that. First, we get a Boruto, Cho Cho, and even Shikadai owning their pops. And then, Sarada wonders if Sasuke is even her dad. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 15 & 16 We're between story arcs, so let's take quick breather and talk about the lessons of friendships, and also making sure your dates last longer than TWO AND A HALF MINUTES, SASUKE. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 13, 14 & 15 Finally, the end of the Purple arc is here! We find out the true identity of the ghost person, have a big fight, and even meet some potential space villains? We get through three episodes this week, so hop right in! It's NARUSHOW!
Em's out this week, so we went ahead and chatted about Chainsaw Man! And then, the problem with trying to get people into anime. Or videogames. Whatever. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 11 & 12 Okay guys, let's get moving. This whole Purple arc has been taking approximately one million episodes. What's that? It's only been 12? Well, huh. Who would have thought. It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 9 & 10 Honestly, we watched these episodes so long ago, I forgot what happened. Something about the Purple probably. It's NARUSHOW!
Em is out this week, so the boys decide to test their mettle against one of the HARDEST NARUTO QUIZZES OF ALL TIME. Can they come up with any names? Probably not! It's NARUSHOW!
Episodes discussed: 7&8 The mystery of the Purple grows, and we try to get a better understanding of what's up with Boruto's weird eye. Plus, an incel rears his ugly head and we get ready to fight a grandpa. It's NARUSHOW!
