My friends and I found this:

http://homepage.mac.com/spookyelectric1/NarutoLicensed.html

It's going around the Gaia Online forums, too, and we need to know if it's ANN or not. We're pretty sure it's a hoax, but we'd rather have it straight from the lion's mouth.. ^^;; If it's a joke, there are many very displeased Naruto fans.. >.<;

It's fake.

It caught me at a bad time too, I'm in a bad mood and tired, so I considered having it shut down... normally I'd just have laughed.

Guess I'll leave them alone..

Besides, 4Kids isn't going to license Naruto.

Ooops, did I say that?

*phew* Good. At first I was scared as hell (because I can actually see that happening, and that's a sad thing) but now that I read it again it is pretty amusing. Thanks for clearing that up.

4Kids wouldn't want Naruto. They have enough work to do marketing the other ninja series.

Well, now that we've cleared things up, how about locking this thread?
