Both are shonen, but if you've seen DB in your childhood and you're looking for something similiar to it Naruto should do. The difference is that of course Naruto has better animation (well, it was aired almost 20 years after DB). Both have many fights and both are funny.
Influences by Dragon Ball? Of course. Naruto though, attempts to take the original style and change it up ever so subtly into a new style that is a nice balance between the not so realistic style of Dragon ball and the super realistic styles of other series, not that either of those styles are bad. Naruto also takes the element of wacky adventures and implements it a manner which is also in between the two types of story telling. There are also a lot of bright colors for both series.

- both shows involve a lot of fighting and comedy
- both of the main characters aren't very bright
- both have perverts in the show

Both are based on manga published by Shounen Jump. They both tell the adventures of a young kid, who has no parents and comes from a remote village, as he makes new friends and fights against strong enemies. Also, both anime show the main character train in order to become stronger and also participate in battle tournaments.

Naruto and Dragon are both highly recognized shounen anime. Dragon Ball shows the life of Goku as a child where he trains to get stronger, just as Naruto does in this series. Each of them are great prequels to serve as a stepping stone towards their even more action-packed sequels.
Ever hear of a little series called Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z? With the main character Goku? Yeah. Luffy from One Piece Gon from Hunter x Hunter and Naruto from Naruto were both inspired by Dragon Ball's Goku. The creators say as much themselves.

Naruto takes a lot of inspiration from Dragon Ball, which is rather clear. I watched Dragon Ball first, then later on watched Naruto. It's a good watch.
