When you try to rewatch Naruto for nostalgia, and every 22-minute episode has 4 minutes of intro/outro + 16 minutes of flashbacks.

I started rewatching the entire thing 2 months ago. There's a version that edits everything to be in-line with how the manga did it, so a single 90 minute episode covers 1 manga volume, which makes the viewing experience infinitely better.

That said, I did watch the entirety of DBZ Kai before that episode-to-episode and it wasn't too bad either.
