I like naruto alot more. I really think the story is alot deeper then DBZ's. It just depends on how far into the series you are. Also because there is still more new things to come when it comes to naruto. I've already seen the whole DBZ series atleast twice.

DBZ is honestly repetitive. Fights end up with Goku killing the bad guy with with a spirit bomb.

Naruto has good use of techniques aswell. Unless you dont understand the whole hand-sign thing.

If there was a Piccolo saga, then DBZ would have a deeper story as Piccolo ends up having a lot of intrigue and also history unfolding with the various "other body" experiences.

Naruto. don't get me wrong, i grew up on dbz, but i like Naruto more. as far as i'm concerned Neji is the greatest anime character of all time. i like Tenten, Hinata, Gaara, Kakashi, my list goes on and on. there were characters in dbz that i would've prefered had simply stayed dead. good shows, both of 'em, but i just like Naruto more.

Naruto has a better story in my opinion, I mean for dbz:
Saiyan saga: Why Goku is unusual
Namek Saga: Who destroyed Planet Vegeta?
Android Saga: Revenge of The Red Ribbon Army.
Buu Saga:???????
GT:
Baby Saga: Revenge of the Tuffles
Super 17 Saga: Gero's final attempt for revenge
Shadow Dragon saga: How ironic, the thing that they rely on becomes the strongest villan.
Naruto: What one boy goes through to become the greatest ninja in his village (which is alot).

I think that the original db was better than naruto and that early dbz e.g. saiyan freiza is better than naruto but dbz kind of sucked towards the end

i like dbz alot better, not only is the fighting cooler to watch, but it also has some comedy incorporated into it at appropriate times. naruto is all work and no play by what ive seen. (and i havent seen alot)

Yeah but think about it...
If they did all get defeated they would all be dead and they show would be over....whats the point in that?
So you guys kinda haft to think about that

I say Dbz,
more action,good long story that keeps you at the edge of your seat,very nice voice actors,the movies kick butt,and so do the games,the music is good.
Naruto is getting um a little to...boring for me.
