I'm a senior in high school and I know about 6 people who wear Naruto headbands everyday. My own sister used to be one. =_=;; I'm the president of my school's anime club and there are like 4 people who come and do nothing but TALK about Naruto whilst they DRAW pictures of Naruto characters. I made it VERY clear that we would NOT be watching Naruto, but now one of the seniors is saying we should watch the Naruto movie since we have sooo many Naru-tards. I don't know what I should do now. Do I pop in a Naruto DVD to give the Naru-tards what they want? Or just hold strong and stick to my guns?
underpressure116, you too?! I feel your pain, and can relate completely. At my school, I keep telling these kids we will not be watching Naruto. (My policy for the club at my school is that we will only watch unliscensed anime, so people can get some variety.) But does that stop them from asking every damn week, hell no. Personally, I love Naruto, but if I, the club president, can watch it on his own time, so can they. I encourage them to watch new, up and coming anime like Code Geass, or Darker than Black, or just SOMETHING BESIDES NARUTO.
As for the headbands...well, a lot of kids at my school wear them. My friend wears her's around her neck, that's because, her hair is cut short, almost like Hinata's. But hey then again, I bought it for her. She only wears it to club though, so I'm proud that she has some sense of humiliation in public from wearing it. But other people are just plain crazy. This one kid comes to school everyday, wearing the Akatsuki cloak. EVERY DAMN DAY. You can spot those red clouds from a mile away.
My opinion. If its for Halloween. Freaking go for it. Show off, why not? But as for everyday life, leave it at home, and only wear it to conventions or whatever you omega-otaku's do. Me, i'm an average otaku, who'll only wear that headband once in a while. I suggest you do the same.
