تفاصيل المقابلة الحصرية مع كيشي والقصة تطول Masashi Kishimoto’s Interview with Otona Fami Magazine!
As mentioned previously in the NARUTO the Movie: Road to Ninja promotional schedule, Naruto’s manga creator Masashi Kishimoto was going to have an interview with Otona Fami magazine. In the interview, Kishimoto-sensei answered some questions regarding about the end of the manga. Below is the highlight of the interview.
Otona Fami Magazine: Let me ask you something about your exciting work, that is so greatly admired. Can we already see the end of the story on the horizon?
Kishimoto-sensei: Not everything is set in stone just yet… like for example, in what way I’m going to show it – but the way I’m going to end it has been decided pretty clearly. So from now on, it will just be a matter of running towards that point.
Otona Fami Magazine: …in that case, you have in mind even the very last volume?
Kishimoto-sensei: No, you won’t be able to read something like that. (laugh) The story really hasn’t progressed as much as I was expecting. About three years ago, at Jump Festa, I said that I would give Kakashi more to do in the manga… and yet I still haven’t been able to do that. Honestly, I myself don’t know how much it will take. Nishio-san, who takes care of the character designs for the anime, also asked me for how long the story would continue… and I answered ‘About one year and a half’. But it seems like it will take longer than that.
Otona Fami Magazine: Can we be expecting any more surprises?
Kishimoto-sensei: There are still quite a few. Some characters who originally weren’t going to appear will come up again. And then… well, things are going to get exciting with Naruto, so please give me your support.
Otona Fami Magazine: Is there any material that you weren’t able to insert in this year’s movie?
Kishimoto-sensei: I intended to insert all the things that were inside my head. It’s just that I also have some novel ideas. There is some material that I probably won’t be able to insert in the original work, but if I get the okay of the editorial department, secretly I’d like to insert it somewhere, like in a non-serialized story… some suspensful developments… the details are a secret, but there are many challenges that I’d like to face.
