Why do I love NARUTO?
I have been a fan of Naruto since I was 9. I have never thought that I would even fall in love with an anime character since then. I grew up an incomplete family - my father died when I was 6. I always long for a father figure which maybe the reason I became really captivated with Naruto's life. Just like him, I grew up wanting to be acknowldeged by the people around me. I always long for a complete family which I will never have. And luckily, I discovered Naruto. At first, I only watched it because of my male cousins, but little did I know that I will be an avid fan of his. I saw how hard he tried to fit in the world where a Jinchūriki like him will never be accepted. I always try to do my best in school so that my mom won't see my weaknesses; people will see my victories rathen than my failures. Naruto was my best friend, my virtual best friend. If only I can talk to him whenever he's alone, struggling to save his best friend, Sasuke, then I would definitely do it. His words cuts deeper in me. The episode when he talked to his dad was really the hardest for me. How I wish I can do the same thing with my dad. I miss him a lot that I always cry whenever I watch that episode for a thousand times. I am already 23, turning 24 this year. I graduated in college last 2019. My friends, classmates, professors, and mostly all the people around me know that I love Naruto more than just an anime, but a family, a brother, a lover, and an inspiration. One of my creative shots was when I was holding a Kunai - which was given by my classmate. Naruto is everything to me. For me, Naruto.will.always.be.the.GOAT. anime.character.ever.existed. Thank you for helping me conquer my fears and face my destiny in life - maybe not to be a Hokage like you - but to be the best teacher in the world. Yes, I am a teacher and I am proud to be his number one fan.
