Encounter With NARUTO
The first time I learned about NARUTO was from the TV anime.
That was during the Land of Waves arc.
Haku and Zabuza's story was so sad, even as a child I was thinking, "This is a real serious story," while watching it.
After that, I read the manga at a friend's house, and my impression was "I didn't know such a well-developed story existed!"
I think that was my first proper experience with shonen manga.
After that I got totally hooked and started following the story in Weekly Shonen Jump.

Drawn In by Sheer Artistic Talent
NARUTO has so many good points that if I try to list them we'll be here all day, but if I had to pick one I'd have to go with Masashi Kishimoto's incredible drawings.
The expressiveness of his art is seriously a cut above.
One part that left a big impact on me was the scene where Naruto hits Kabuto with his Rasengan.
The way the shock waves spiral out the moment that the move hits is incredible, like something out of a myth.

Hololive VTuber Sakura Miko Talks About Her Love for NARUTO!
The Whole Family Loves NARUTO!
My mom loves NARUTO, and she's had it on her bookshelf at home since forever ago.
She also watches a lot of anime, so naturally my little brother, little sister, and I started watching it too!
Ever since I was small, I'd watch anime with my family while eating dinner, read manga in my free time, and buy Jump volumes!

Congratulations to Minato for His NARUTOP99 Win!
He's one of my favorite characters so I was really happy about the special Minato one-shot manga!
I was wondering what kind of story it was gonna be and when I found out I was like, "Eh, it's about that?!" (laughs)
We got to learn the origin of his technique, and I really liked the interactions between Minato and Kushina... It was all so adorable.
Minato's naming style is kinda, well... (laughs). Minato looks like this perfect guy, but he can actually be pretty lame, which I thought was cute.
Getting to see those different sides made it a really great story. I wanna see more! (laughs)
The cover illustration of Minato was really cool, too! He looks a little younger than usual, so I bet that made a lot of fans max out their "Wow!" meters!
