While I knew that Crunchyroll would get this, its still cool.

I'm not sure if I'll be watching, but all I know is....the Akatsuki better appear. They can be comedy gold if handled right.

Was there ever really any real doubt? At any rate, no thanks, I'm not interested in this.

I never saw what was so great about Rock Lee. Japan is in love with him but he's barely ever around in the series. That's the problem with every Shonen series is that they introduce a bazillion characters and they never give them time to develop. I don't think Lee has done anything since the first season of Shippuden.

Seeing Lee do random stuff for 30 minutes will probably be on the level of Naruto fillers but I guess I should see at least an episode before assuming what it will be like.

What does street cred have to do with this??naruto is a terrible series which failed to reach its potential. What's wrong with stating a fact?

Anyways you're probably right,I shouldn't be making fun of naruto,as it's way to easy to make fun of.

Anyways I'm just really glad that the real star of the naruto franchise is finally getting his chance to shine

The Rock Lee manga actually spoofs Lee's series of failures, his secondary status and other "issues" with the main series. That's why it's great, and i hope the anime keeps the same spirit.
