Did people actually go and see it?

otakon takes place in august. the schedule is released ahead of the con online

Got some hearsay about that Naruto 4 episodes mini series. Apparently, the CEO of TVTokyo said in a financial report that it will come out in this fiscal years. So, it has to come out by March 31 of 2025 for that to be true.

 

Never followed either of those series. Care to elaborate?

the adventure of dai has characters that appear to be similar to ones in naruto and it also has other similarities. for example a similar love triangle (i'm not sure how to spoil in the forum but i can add some other details if i knew how). in beet i noticed the main hero and heroine had a similar time skip that sakura and naruto do (both series have the same writer so kishimoto probably was a fan)

 

Yeah I remember the comparisons between Kishi's wife and Sakura. I did not know that she was unhappy that about how the manga ended or that she was a NaruSaku fan. 

 

I 100% agree on Kishi's lack of reliability. To me it just points back to how he should bear the consequences and displeasure for constantly lying and gaslighting his audience. 

kishi went to the dentist and his future wife recognized his name matched the mangaka of naruto and that's how they met. it's kind of funny because i think oda married a one piece fan as well

Well the comments are surprise, "that Sakura is actually popular in Japan," is true.

shonen jump released a manga music video for sakura's birthday which wasn't the worst but it does seem to utilize ai

happy valentine's day

So was the boruto anime put on hiatus or cancelled before ending on the last chapter?

this is off topic but this forum not using ssl is unsecure and if a hacker wanted to what's to stop him from stealing the logins for the forum or otherwise intercepting data?

I'm gonna see if I can buy the issue today at my comic book shop

I had to buy it.
 

TMNTxNaruto Issue 1

It follows between Search for Tsunade and Sasuke Retrieval Arcs from Naruto. While the TMNT world and lore exists within the Naruto canon, it follows the IDW comics as Alopex is part of the Foot Clan (if you guys follow that version). And remember that filler arc right before the Sasuke Retrieval arc? Well, they gave Sakura the sudden enhanced strength before her training with Tsunade and she fought against Raphael, in which he even complimented her skills. Sasuke fought Leonardo and Naruto against both Donatello and Michelangelo.  And somehow Kakashi knows Splinter aka Yoshi Hamato.
 
End of first issue. Second issue comes out in January...

A decade ago. A decade ago. A decade ago, Naruto was the King of International Sales and was some years even second to Dragon Ball. Maybe even better than Dragon Ball since it was largely dormant during Naruto's prime years. That hasn't been the case since the ending. Due to streaming and the Live action adaptation One Piece has finally taken off internationally like it should have 25 years ago, but before that it was largely considered popular only in Japan. Even Oda admitted he thought that in interviews around the time of ending of Naruto.

 

https://en.wikipedia...t-selling_manga

Now a days its number 6 at 250mil in terms of volume sales. Dragon Ball is 5 with 260mil, Detective Conan 4 with 270mil, Doremon 3 with 300mil, Golgo13 at 2 with 300mil, and One Piece is number 1 with 517mil. Oh Slam Dunk is number 7 with 185mil

 

https://www.cbr.com/...ime-franchises/

It is the 13th biggest anime franchise with estimated worth of $10 Billion. With One Piece at 7 and Dragon ball at 5. Number One is Naruto's old time slot partner Pokémon. 

 

Even with those numbers the executives know. Naruto-Boruto is not making the money it should be making.

depends on what you mean by closer to dragon ball. like was it inspired by dragon ball or is it competing with it. when i first read that it wasn't clear what was meant by "closer" for me. how does boruto compare to these other manga?

No, in 2014 at Jumpfesta he said Sakura was his favorite in another interview later on Hinata was his favorite.

 

Being Kishimoto's favorite character is a meaningless phrase as he changes it constantly and it mainly to appease the person asking the question.

 

The reason that event was important is that it was when Kishimoto was giving constant interviews trying to justify the ending and come with more explanations/excuses to see which one the fans would accept. With someone, Junko, finally having enough of it and telling him to drop it.

do you have a link for these interviews? from my understanding kishimoto complimented sakura and then said he liked hinata which is when junko told him to be silent which was a single interview

That was last month. This month its the 10th anniversary of the Last Naruto Movie with Hinata's red scarf of fate. Next month Naruto's VA Junko Takeuchi asking Kishimoto to be quite already as he tried to BS fans that Sakura was his favorite character; which was embarrassing Chie Sakura's VA who felt ashamed that her character was so unpopular she had to be replaced as the heroine. 

To be honest the moment a sequel trilogy was going to be made the old eu canon was going to be removed. George lycas himself never saw it as canon and at best just used a few ideas from the eu or give a little import like the history of the sith with darth bane or palpatine's sith master. Heck his ideas were etheir going to be about the Willis or darth maul and darth talon with having a underground criminal empire. So no thawn or yu zang vong. Plus I doubt genreal audience was to read about 20 to 30 decades of spin of novels, comics and games to understand a sequel trilogy from the eu timeline, they will have so many questions like chewbacca dead, along with why their is a galactic federation instead of a new Republic

yeah true but like i said the replacement isn't better than what was removed
