I just watched the first ep. I thought it was rather well done. At first it was strange, but this is really gonna be a popular series in N.A. I didn't mind the choice for the voices at all, except maybe Sukura, but she wasn't on screen much.

About the pronounciation of Naruto... Well, in English it can't be helped that it would sound different. The 'u' sound in Naruto just doesn't exist in the English language. In English, they say 'oo' or 'ew' and they even pause before saying 'to'. It's just the way it is. Now French does have the correct pronounciation and some have said Spanish. Anyways, it clearly is NOT the correct pronounciation, but whatever, they come real close sometimes and it's obvious they tried to match the original. At least they didn't change the characters' names.

This ep, even in English reminded me why I liked this show in the first place. Man, I hope things return to normal soon.
