Yeah, for the most part, bad pronounciation is damn annoying. But it's pretty easy to get over if you stop complaining about it.
Just don't start mispronouncing it yourself, ;p

Anyone else say "naRUto" and not "NAruto"?? It's how the name was introduced to me and I've never been able to break the habbit.

I hope we get some decent promo's now that the show's in the process of being dubbed.
