It's not 100%, but here is the sketch I did for Sachiko Uzumaki 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Out of curiosity how old do you guys think Sachiko looks? 

 

I was trying to make her look between 14-16 years old!

 

 

sidenote:

 

-   I've been a bit rusty on drawing Sakura incase her side of things don't look spectacular!

- I'll post the colored version sometime either tomorrow or sunday.

Maybe The Last made them hate Hinata so no vote to her. Who knows. It's pretty funny.

I'll go with that too makes sense to me, I'm still shocked Hinata made 9 and Jiraya was 10 on the list Hinata didn't matter in the story at all. At least Lee, Garra, Neji, Itachi, and Sakura were ranked above her, though not props from putting Sasuke and Kakashi above Naruto. Seriously they chose Hinata over Pain.

Still waiting for them to do a Top 10 Naruto movies list and see were The Last ranks and were Road to Ninja Ranks. 

[VanitasDS76491]

I'm not a watchmojo fan but having Sakura above Hinata makes me give them major props.

Ya but still they put Kakashi and Sasuke above the main character and that not right and no I care if Sasuke and Kakashi main characters too those two suck hard especially Sasuke. 

[VanitasDS76491]

I write my version of Sakura to be awesome.

If it's like your stories on fanfiction it will be awesome cause I read your Kingdom Hearts story with Narusaku and it was great and the sequel with Vanitas and Menma is good so far.

Out of curiosity, is it public knowledge as to when Junko's contract will expire and she is no longer obligated to do voicework for Naruto anymore?

I don't think it will ever expire.

Actors contracts are rarely know, unless they really want to make it publicly known to the world.

Now their contract is almost always based on seasons. They sign on for a specific number of seasons at the start or in some cases years. And when that contract is close to expiring; they just renew it for another season and another one and on and on until show either gets cancelled or it's just over. Or of course if the actor/actress just wants out.

Junko and the rest of the cast probably have contracts that go on till the anime ends. It's rare of a Japanese VA to be replaced mid season in an anime. The only time I've seen a Japanese Va be replaced is because of medical conditions that prevent them from working or death. It's probably another reason they are keeping the Naruto anime going. If the anime ends before they started working on the Bolt anime most of the main cast would probably leave and not come back. By keeping the anime going they keep the main cast till their ready for Bolt and then probably for them to continue working.

Naruto anime still made money anyway, kids and preteen still love it.

[Bail o' Lies]

Are Kids and preteens even allowed to watch Naruto on TV? The last time it was on toonami prime time before it was cancelled was in 2008. Which was 8 years ago. Some of them probably don't remember when Naruto first started. Now it's late at night. 

[Tsuki Hoshino]

I don't even see Naruto on TV anymore...

But its probably a different rating system in japan, so who knows when it comes on Tv...

Remember he's talking about American fans. So let see (http://www.adultswim.com/toonami/) it on at 2 Am on adult swim/toonami... Wow it use to be one of their starters in March last year. It gotten push back in the past year to basically the tail end of their shows. As for Japan from what i recall it Thursday at a really awkward time. Since i recall people on tumbler in Japan mention the effort they had to go to watch it.

 

So how are kids watching it on TV at 2 am? Their sleep schedules must be a mess and they must have terrible parents for letting them stay up so late. And once again pre-teen and kids means 13 and younger. They were at best 5 when Naruto was on prime time. Why would they care about a tv show they probably can't even remember watching at a decent time?

[Tsuki Hoshino]

True enough and thank you. 

I'm an old adult and i don't even stay up to 2am to watch anime anymore  

[rocci]

They watch naruto in japan.
It's a seven pm show I think.

[db84x]

Without high rating in Japan, Naruto anime will follow Bleach anime fate.

[LuckyChi7]

Here is the colored version of my drawing of  Sachiko "Sachi" Uzumaki with her parents.

 

[Bail o' Lies]

What are the rating in Japan? Weren't they sinking like a stone recently because of the endless filler alone (they'll probably get a boost from the Itachi arc because it's itachi mind you). Also isn't their better anime they could be watching? And finally. What made Naruto important to SJ was it was a huge international seller. They focused soo much on that aspect, they were willing to sacrifice/piss off the Japanese fan base with The Last. Hoping to get a much money internationally for the ending as possible. The fact they are now desperately clinging to their Japanese fan base is a very desperate act.

[BlackBird19]

I know I haven't seen ratings for Naruto in a while. But that's because it's never in Japan's top ten anime ratings.  Also, Naruto's international sales made up quite a chunk of it's success. More so than most other manga.

[db84x]

Usually as long as rating still good, anime will go on.  Recently I never saw anime since there isn't any new series fit with my preference.

[BlackBird19]

As far as I know the rating number at the 10 spot is considered good. So any of the shows that hover around the 10 spot are still doing well. Naruto has consistently stayed below that for the last three years. They did air the Last on TV Tokyo once and it only did a 1.4 which is not very good, even for a late night showing.
