Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

Q: How will the manga develop from now?
Kishi: About the future development of the manga, yes? ... Hereafter the Great Shinobi War will reach its final phase and yet more astonishing characters will appear, like this character after that character.

a fan via twitter: what is Naruto for kishimoto-sensei?
K: by Naruto you mean the title or the character? if the character, a hero perhaps…yes hes the hero.

F: which chara is closest to you(/your character)?
K: the closest is…hmm maybe Kiba or Naruto…they do things before thinking…for that I think im close to them.

F: if u were to go out with one of your female charas whod you like?
Kish: its kinda creepy to think about going out with a chara i created myself but...if forced, well, id say...Hinata, perhaps.


F: in the naruto charas, who would u like to make best friends with, if u could?
K: hmmm.. Actually I dont particularly want to be a close friend of any of them….but maybe Lee. yes its Lee. Rock Lee would be nice. He seems truthful.

F: You share same birthday with Sasori, dont you? Is Sasori a special chara for you?
Kish: mmm do i? Sarori? the same birthday as his?is it so? …well…oh yes…in a mook book(=a term for publications cross between magazine and book) maybe? we forcefully decided the birthday when we made the mook book. oh yes yes I remember it now. sasori is…because sasori(the name) means scorpion and im a scorpion we should share the same birthday or something like that… thats about the size of it, really.

F: If Naruto ever has a son what name will you give him?
Kish: If Naruto has a son what name hell have…hmm…I used to think menma would be fine. people often jokingly asked me "wont you start Menma when you finish Naruto?" "you should write about narutos son, Naruto the 2nd" or "why not write menma?" but now I used the name for the movie, that...ummmm…(the name of narutos son will be) Shinachiku* I guess.
*(shinachiku is another name for menma, seasoned bamboo shoots)

F: you said as the authors comments in the vol 60 that you develop your ideas in the bathroom. how long do you spend in the bath?
K: let me see…when a shower it takes about 30mins or so and when Im soaked in a hot tub, about one hour and half.
I bring some bottled water or tea with me. when my blood circulation is good, ideas are easy to pop into my head that I work on ideas in the bath.

F: how do your children call you?
K: Otoh-san (father). they call me Oto-san. Occasionally they call me 'the person who writes Naruto'

F: what kind of manga do you think ull be writing when you are an old man?
K: when im an old man let me retire please….but if I am still being whipped by editors to write manga, I d say ill write about love in an elderly home or something…I do like to write about love.

Yesh! Feed us MOAR!

He's like Naruto, does things before thinking- he showed that with Tobi's ID: :lol: JK
He wants to date Hinata- He likes boobs :lol:
Sasori's B-day- That's all fan-made

Moar!

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

You should change your name to Ryback.:p

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

that interview was pointless

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

No surprise the female he likes most is Hinata since I was told that she is one of his favorite characters.lol

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

what kind of name is that for a kid xD

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

Who's that? :P

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

Lo help us.

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

FOOLS!... to have such an opportunity wasted on Stupid, idiotic, simpleton wasteful questions like that? Damn! FOOLS!...i hate these interviewers? They are no fans...they're just some lousy wanabe followers! "how do your children call you"?...man! someone should shove a grenade down these idiots' throat! FOOLS!!
Look how many unanswered questions and holes there are in the manga? FOOLS...

Nothin against the op...These idiots just make my lower-parts tick.
thx to OP tho'.

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

That name...

Anyway I would date Hinata too :lol:
So he loves romance, no wonder he's edging it to NaruHina

Showers and baths
I tend to do the same thing when I'm thinking up debates and story lines xD

Rock Lee
Yes
Just yes
...

A new arc? I will fidget too much
I want to hear more on that Menma story~

Not much of a good interview but at least he gave us something...

Moreeeeeeee!!! .______.

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

Doesn't surprise me that he's on the can when he is at his best.

I do my math homework on the can :lol:

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

I would think there is o.0 the war arc revolves around Obito and madara trying to get the hachi-b and kyuu-b.
I would think that saucekay and naruto fight/talk/yell would be a whole new arc

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

Uggh-not Shinachiku, that just sounds terrible. I don't care if he already used Menma in the RTN movie (and he was in a filler arc of the Anime) it's still a better name. I was thinking the kid would be named Neji or something, but I guess that would be giving too much away in an interview if he ever planned to write that in some day.

I think the biggest piece of info. here is the supposed emergence of "astonishing characters"-maybe the people Oro was referring to really haven't been revealed yet.

Thanks for the info Vivi.

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

First thing I thought of was Hashirama makes a return!!! But Vivi shot me down with the whole Oro summoned him earlier so he's sealed etc, which was right.

So...I hope it's the Rikudo's sons.

I would never date Hinata. She just hasn't won me over. I am unsure she ever will. There is just something about her.... Maybe it stems from her voice.

I'd date Ino!

K is right, these were wasted questions BUT they might have been the only ones he was willing to answer or would answer at this time.....well, I hope to think that's the reason....

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

thx for putting them up anyhow :D

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

I can see why Hinata is the one he would date out of all the females I know I would as well since she is amazing.;)

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

the first question was the only important one...and i guess the one about hinata reveals kishi won't kill her cuz she's her fav...

@ quall... hinata won me over in some filler when she was all naked taken a shower at the waterfalls...remember that...and naruto though he'd seen some "angel"... Plus, she's the K-11 with the biggest b**ty n Tts...

as for the many characters that'd appear? that's no surprise but i'm dyin to know who?

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

I totally remember that she looked pretty hot during that insect filler part even if we didn't get a good view of her I totally like that.:p And she looked totally amazing when she was fighting.

Re: Kishi moar interview q & a.
 

^aha..that was the bikochu arc...mmmh... Yea...that's when she shined with her version of eight trigram 64 palms...
