I doen't know but everything we get from this Manga/Anime is about Naruto Sakura, Team 7, Naruto Sakura.

Why other can't see that when the manga is aiming for comfort the focus is only on Naruto Sakura.

The translation, what not so clear by the way, say something about Naruto loneliness for his perents and Sakura.

The gist of it is that Naruto and Sakura are put into a genjutsu by Tobi. They meet surprising people (Naruto's parents, Sasuke) and are surprised and a little lost. Even though they know its a trap, Naruto has a hard time wanting to be away from Minato and Kushina. Tobi is still lurking in the background and its only a matter of time before he strikes again. Naruto and his parents will have to fight him.

In the teaser trailer, the rough sketches showing her father I presume, since he had the Haruno sign, read 元ヤンnear him.

Actually, it's ganyanshi. There's a shi in katakana after the n. Gan in kanji means Root, Foundation, Beginning... If your source was thinking it was a blend of gang and yankii it would all be in katakana. (I haven't seen the blended term ganyan- but I can imagine it happening, it's a common type evolution in modern Japanese slang, but again the whole word would then be written in katakana...) It's a different kanji than Ne, but the meaning is basically the same. Gan has a bit more of a tone of referring to the start of something, where Ne is more root, foundation meaning what is at the bottom of something- it's a subtle thing....

(For those that don't know, because the slang term is going out of style in Japan, yankii was a common term up through the early 2000's. It was used to describe a delinquent boy or girl- delinquent in a pretty broad sense- from kids that dye their hair weird colors and wear the school uniform in nonstandard ways, to kids that indulge in minor vandalism and talk back to the teachers, to actual gang members (not on yakuza level though)- more just fighting other gangs, chronically absent from school, vandalism and petty theft.

If Sakura's dad was a 'rebel' or 'deliquent' (sp?) as some say, it much reminds me of young Naruto, causing mayhem and whatnot. If compared to Sasuke, that doesn't even make sense at all. Sasuke's a fullblown criminal, as a lot of people already said. Who knows, Sakura could of been brought up with her mother saying to 'stay away from trouble makers or pranksters' and what was Naruto? Just that. Yet Sakura, as proven in manga, secretly liked pranking and got excited from it. (Inner Sakura) That could be a trait from her dad.

there's already proof of a Minato/Kushina/Sakura/Naruto parallel. Imagine if Sakura's parents are like them, too? That'd be pretty sweet.

Man, I missed a lot of new info. Allow me to comment.

Confirmed: Sakura's parents. Nice. I do wonder why show it now in the movie no less. I have nothing wrong with it, but what part of role would they play in this movie. Time will tell. I wonder if Naruto will see her parents and interact. That will be sweet as well as Sakura meeting his parents. Man, I know it's a wishful thinking but imagine how their parents will approve their child's friend to be together (marriage). After all, it is in the genjutsu world, so it's not like Kishi made it canon (see what i did there).

Dark Naruto coming back? This should be interesting. I can't wait to see this plays out.

Lastly, the plot. I get the feeling that Sakura will be part of the people that will help Naruto to understand that the world is not real. Naruto is going to have a hard time to go back to the real world because his parents are alive. Maybe that scan with the sketch could be taking place during the time Naruto conflicting issues. She does look rather sad. Maybe sad to hear Naruto liking it or sad to hear that only in a fake world that he can have a family. Oh man, Kishi, you're killing me here! The possibility is endless. Even voice actors are teasing. The movie is going to be awesome. Sakura back in action, Naruto's family in action, awesome composer, possibly awesome animators, and lastly, Kishi, the creative control. I want to go to Japan!

Here's the full translation:

about ten years ago a gigantic demon beast, the Kyuubi, was released by a mysterious masked shinobi. The hidden village of Konoha was on the verge of being destroyed by the Kyuubi's attack... and there was only one way to save it. Together with his wife Kushina, the leader of the village, the Fourth Hokage Minato, sealed the Kyuubi into their newly born son, Naruto. By sacrificing their own lives, the two just barely managed to save the village, and entrusted its future to Naruto.

"There is no doubt... it's Akatsuki!"

And afterwards, time flowed on... until the members of the horrible shinobi group called Akatsuki (Pain, Konan, Itachi, Kisame, Sasori, Deidara, Hidan, and Kakuzu) appeared suddenly, only to attack Naruto's group. Naruto and the others narrowly managed to counterattack them... but why are these Akatsuki members back again, when they are supposed to be dead? The mystery remains, while all the shinobi are praised by their families for completing such a dangerous mission. Only Naruto, who has never known the faces of his parents, cannot help feeling lonely…

At that exact time, suddenly, the masked man makes another appearance in Konoha.

"It's been a long time, Uzumaki Naruto."

Due to the masked man's mysterious new doujutsu, Naruto and Sakura's surrounding world gets distorted and gradually swallowed.

When they regain consciousness and look around them, the masked man has already disappeared. The two try to pursue him, but at that point they start to notice an unusual phenomenon in the village. Kakashi, Tsunade and their fellow nakama in the village have changed personalities, and have become like totally different persons. Furthermore, even Sasuke is back in the village! And another amazing thing... Naruto's parents, Minato and Kushina, who should already be dead - are alive! What could be the meaning of all this?

"Why... are Tou-chan and Kaa-chan alive...?"

Put in front of this changed reality, Naruto and Sakura suddenly start to feel lost.

Naruto's joy at having met his parents once again is irresistable... but on the other hand, even in this world he has to face a life or death crisis caused by the masked man.

The masked man who aims at the power of the Kyuubi who dwells inside Naruto is once again about to bring destruction to the village of Konoha! The masked man aims at the weaknessed hidden in human emotions. A dreadful trap and ambition!

Naruto will have to fight against his fate in place of his parents, who had formerly bet their lives to protect the village!

[Gravenimage]

Oh hell yeah this movie will be the best Naruto movie ever!

I think that the stick is Sasuke's sword, And the watermelon is the rasengan.

lol, what's that from?

[TouKen4Life3g]

lol, what's that from?

It's from twitter.

I am not sure it's just me but I feel this movie is...surreal. I mean it's starring with Naruto and Sakura along with Minato and Kushina. I mean I'm not saying this pairing won't be canon, but to think, Kishi putting them in the movie working together as team. To be honest, I think it's safe to say that we going to get NaruSaku moments. Now I know I want to see the movie because of its concept, but NaruSaku moments would be icing the cake. I can't see how Sakura or Naruto dodging each other family encounter. Kishi is introducing Sakura's parents for whatever reason, but surely, he is making a point across. This movie screams awesomeness and I just can't wait.

[chouzu_tao]

Probably off the Naruto movie blogspot.

I'm a little confused by the conventions of the people in the fabricated world in this film. Are they the other side of the coin to those in reality? If so, shouldn't they be evil? Or is this a world where they swapped personalities but still arrived at the same conclusions? Are their decisions the opposite of what they would be in actual Konoha? If so either sets of parents accepting or cheering for Naruto and Sakura's blossoming relationship would be diminished by the fact that they are the opposite of what would happen the real world.

I'm interested to see what conclusion there is between Sakura and the Sasuke of this world. I hope it simply isn't a "I don't like this Sasuke because he's not the Sasuke I know" type thing.

Also I've noticed a lack of Rock Lee stuff... in this world did he never become a ninja? Will Minato be more openly passionate where Kushina is more passive? Will Sakura's parents also have opposite personalities from their real world counterparts? Where's Jiraiya-sama? I hope he makes an appearance as a conservative person.

What if they end the series with the movie and the movie is the final arc? The people that did danny phantom did that. What if they do it with naruto since he knows who his parents are in the movie? And maybe it is an arc in the manga too. For example, there was an anime called gintama and apparently they turned an actual manga arc into a movie. What if they do that here? Wait, only problem is the movie comes out this month before the manga ends. Hmmm.... well, the only way it'd work I guess is if these are some of the last war arc chapters and then they have tobi retreat and return in the movie maybe. And then maybe Tobi himself would be the evil Naruto. That would be crazy. And then maybe the Sasuke battle happens in between and isn't the final battle like we thought...

Well, better make NaruSaku then!

Just kidding. I won't be surprised at all. It does have some potential for character development. Like what is life with family for Naruto? What if Sakura get along with Sasuke since he's "nice", and learn if this is what she wants or not? Will both families approve their child's friend to be lover (I can see this happening)?

I don't think it's canon, but if he wants to, I'm on board.

not likely, Madara's mask is back to the orange one in the movie

[sushi.]

I'll look forward to Sakura's reaction to the connection between Yondaime and Minato.

I wonder, what do guys think Naruto and Sakura would be like as alternative persons?
