Yeah Naruto doesn't look any older so I think he'll become Hokage soon and will indeed be the true Rokudaime Hokage. Interesting how Naruto's face doesn't look that happy- it's like he's aware of the weight of the role now that he has it, plus the prophecy's responsibility too.

[KungFuTruffle]

It wouldn't surprise me if it happened soon. Naruto is the only one left in Konoha that's truly Kage level. The other jounin still alive don't hold a candle to him anymore, and he's personally made alliances with two rival villages. It's hard to argue with it...

But if this is an actual spoiler, I don't like it. Naruto is stronger now, but he doesn't really have any leadership experience. Nor does he have the emotional maturity to lead.

Actually, he is smiling, well, smirking as I call it. The cloak is partially blocking his lips.

And it doesn't matter about the leadership experience. Ever watch the cartoon, Babar?

I'd have to disagree on both ends, Naruto looks older by a couple of years atleast, his hair looks longer and more wild, he looks even more like his dad, and he also looks like he has that air of maturity and self-confidence we haven't seen in him before. I also wouldn't say he looks sad, he looks more at ease in my opinion with the look that says 'Don't mess with me or mine, I am the Hokage and will take you down'.

That is a cool drawing, Had to do a double take thought it was the Fourth Hokage first until I saw the Whisker marks.

[jworks]

Super duper excited. looks cool. he does look older to me, but with the minimalist style of anime/manga i wouldn't be surprised if it were meant to look the same age and it was just a slight mistake.

but what is a 'fan book'? would that mean that this is a fan drawing of naruto? (not done by kishimoto)

[Cupcake-chan]

O.O

AWESOMEE!!! Aww his dream came true!!

Well, its almost like that. This one is going to have other authors like Oda and Kubo drawing their version of Naruto, another one-shot manga, and Kishimoto is going to talk about his old manga before the series existed.

[Miss Soupy]

Can't wait to see Kubo's version of Naruto XD Reminds me of when the mangaka did their own version of dbz to honor that manga

Akira, Watsuki and other mangaka besides Kubo and Oda... drawing Naruto?!

HOLY S***!!! I can't WAIT!!!

[Smiter]

Wow...

Both the picture and the list of mangakas are epic.

I hope it won't be just Naruto they'll draw. It would be great to see how they picture Sakura, Sai, Tsunade, Kakashi, Yamato, Gaara, Sasuke et al.

[Mugen no Neko]

Wow! It will be really cool to see Naruto (only Naruto? Or other characters and settings too??) drawn in other mangakas style!

[Bryon_Konoha_Ninja]

THIS IS EPIC!!!

Awesome, looking forward to it, I mean, isn't this what the main plot started out to be from the start LOL, now it could be here.

I know alot of people believe that Naruto shouldn't become Hokage yet, but think about it, he is still Naruto and likely will always act like himself, except, ever since he fought Pain, Naruto has been much different, he hasn't shown any signs of immaturity and the more it goes on the more I'm convinced that Naruto has grown up.

I say: Naruto is ready to become the true Hokage of Konoha.

[ciardha]

I'm most looking forward to seeing what Naoko Takeuchi has to say in that talk with Kishimoto. I'm hoping that she likes Tsunade and Sakura best of the female characters.

[Evil Potato]

at the bottom of the page in that link it says "Bee and Naruto will meet and provide us with countless hilarious moments", is this something random someone wrote or is this really a translation?

Looking forward to these ones. I really hope we get scans & translations quickly.
It looks like it's limited to just Jump mangaka. At first I was a little surprised that Masashi's own brother wasn't included. XD The only person it's missing is Ryu Fujisaki.

I hope it won't be just Naruto they'll draw. It would be great to see how they picture Sakura, Sai, Tsunade, Kakashi, Yamato, Gaara, Sasuke et al.

When they did the same thing for One Piece, the various mangakas only drew Luffy. So it will most likely be just Naruto. I would have liked to see them draw others in the cast as well. But that collaboration between Kishi and Toriyama is very curious...
