Recently I picked up the boxed set of Naruto season 1 (on the sugestion of a friend) and I love the series. I liked it enough that I went back to the store and got the next three seasons plus the movie. Can someone recomend some similar shows that I could pick up?

Any sugestion need to meet the following requirements (in order of importance)

1- NO nudity! I have small children who like to watch tv with me
2- Not too scary (see above)
3- no or limited swearing/cursing. See above
4- Continuing storyline/ not broken up (has to make scenes when watched)
5- fantasy prefered over sci-fi
6- Series prefered over movies

(I liked it so much I am tinkering with a SW campaign based on it, if I find some other good shows to add I may use them as well for other countries/contenents/cultures)

Edit: Forgot a requirement but was reminded thanks to everyone else

Check out Hayao Mayazaki's wonderful movies (released under the label Studio Ghilbi).

All great for kids and adults, though some might get a bit scary much for the young or sensitive, and a couple may be a bit junior for the old and cynical.

Studio Ghilbi movies are usually decent and alright for children, although I would not consider Princess Mononoke kid friendly. But I don't really think they're that similar to Naruto.

Off the top of my head Mar might be similar and is probably alright, but I've only seen a bit of it.

A lot of good shows usually contain a level of violence thats not for younger children.

Bleach is usually pretty popular with Naruto fans, but it has notably more graphic violence, probably swearing too but I don't really track that.

I would like to both second Studio Ghibli recommendations and point out - for possible Google or other search purposes - that it is indeed "".

Another popular, family friendly show would be Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles.

Even I like Miyazaki - and in general I hate anime.

For little girls I would highly recommend Kiki's Delivery Service and My Neighbor Totoro. Spirited Away is possibly the best animated film that I have seen since Disney died.

I hope Lassiter brings over more of Miyazaki's work.

The Auld Grump

*EDIT* Oddly, I found Kiki's Delivery Service in the adult film section of Blockbuster - I guess they thought that it was a sex comedy of some sort....

Sorry AuldGrump, I hadn't got the reference.

In addition to what's been listed here, I'd also recommend:

(It's three seasons long. Only first is out, and the second comes out in a few weeks)

Also Last Exile.
