I think the friends thing just happens the longer you're around people. When I see FCs or Linkshells starting up, either it's mostly randoms or people who were randoms once upon a time -- but the key there is to be persistent and aware. Just because you have the same interest as someone doesn't mean you're interested in the same thing (if that makes sense). The goal is to find a group that you either naturally jive with or are willing to put forth the effort with (if you don't want to put forth the effort, chances are you wouldn't get along with them anyways), because whether they're a cohesive group or not, it generally does take some time.
Hell, I mean, as an example. In another place far, far away, a girl once joined what was a cohesive community. I seriously did not like her at first. But she was spunky and persistent, friendly and took concrits like a champ. Now she's one of my favorite writer people. I had to get to know her, and she was willing to let me get to know her.
THAT SAID
I didn't even think naruto until you mentioned anime in the first post. I was like 'nara'to? what's wrong with that?'
