well the way i do it......i've been reading the latest manga chapter and been watching the newest anime release. the anime builds upon the anime at points which is what i love about it. it's also great seeing the battles that were shown in the manga being built upon in the anime. they look a lot better animated compared to a few frames in a manga.

so i suggest if u can't fight the urge to read the manga, read it. u'll enjoy it and make u love the naruto world much more
