I enjoy Deathnote, yup. I watched it a long time ago but it was very entertaining to see the "protagonist" continuously outwit people and how the show didn't rely on fighting to make it good, outside of the whole death thing. The 2nd opening theme is really good too, surprising since I normally don't like such heavy electric guitar. I can't really say its overrated though or maybe I just don't have enough exposure to the fans.
I've heard of people calling Naruto fans "Narutards" but even though half of users names in MMOs have Sasuke or Itachi in them, the anime has to be doing SOMETHING right to gain so many fans.
Naruto really was not that bad. They developed all of the characters very well and went into detail showing us each characters background and personality.
It also showed all the ties between the characters and why they were in the current predicaments they were currently in. However I think what annoys most people is the main character. Who really has no redeeming characteristics.
He is a complete idiot which might be forgivable if he actually tried at anything which he didn't. He gave up on anything and started to be the class clown and he might be more successful if he put force the effort. Since being the fox has amazing potential. Along with that he has this optimistic attitude that he is great when he just seems stupid.
Now the dark equivalent of him is Garra which is someone you can sympathize with since he is in the same situation but does not come off as the stupid naruto. Naruto is also annoying since his stupid catch phrase "Believe it" even when he once again ends up fucking up.
Saskue is a cocky bastard and sakura is a bitch for leaving her only friend in the world for a boy. When Ino was the one who always stood up for her when she was being picked on.
Lee was always a underdog but has an unbeatable spirit and tries his hardest always. Which even though slightly annoying at times you can not help but admire his spirit. This is a wonderful character and a great example.
Gaara turns into a monster and becomes bitter which is very sad but origanly is a lot stronger even more so to the leaf village characters. We also have the Shikumaru who is incredibly brilliant but lazy. Which is a shame and another character that has yet to utilize full potential.
Kiba is basically a human dog but I really like him. Hinata back story is very sad and you have to feel sad for the predicament her and her cousin Negi is in. As he is clearly a better fighter and would be better for the title and Hinata who tries so hard and can never live up to it. A sad position they are both left in. It did however put way too many pointless filler episodes torse the end of the exams after Naruto defeats Gaara which a lot of people stopped watching at this point.
However I do like the storyline after starting Shippuden but I hate the new costume designs. As many others have complained about. The issue many have with naruto is that it is unrealistic. Since they are ninja and they dress that way.
We do have some traditional dressed ninja but those are never any of the main characters which they have many of. Each had great character development. Which you must give the show props for.
I like the interesting and very original costume designs in the original(not shippuden) naruto. So calling people who like naruto (Narutards) proves you are unimaginative, not very creative, unoriginal and probably a bore to talk to.
Truth be told, I've only seen very little of the anime, when Haku shows up. Ever time I tell people this, they start attacking me. x_X I do agree about Naruto's personality and Lee is a very cool character. I don't use the term Narutard though, I think that is quite dumb.
Do you like Deathnote?

I think the biggest reason they dislike it might be since it is popular. So they think they are being cool by rejecting it. It just shows immaturity.
