Start reading the manga to find similarities, LONG, drawn out fights with overwhelming powered opponents is eerily similar.

However, Naruto does have a plot, and that's the real deciding factor, there are mysteries in Naruto more complicated than "who is the leader of these strong guys that we are fighting?"

I'd like to say I'm a fan of DBZ, but the fights are TOO drawn out, really 79 eps? (ONE GUY).

Naruto's worst so far in the manga, maybe 6 or 7 chapters.

And if you try hard enough, I'm sure you could easily say that Naruto had SIMILARITIES with Pokemon, so just enjoy naruto, and you know you watched DBZ too.
