NARUTO series creator Masashi Kishimoto reacts to Toriyama's passing.
"I honestly don't know what to write about this sudden event.
But for now, I would like to share my thoughts and feelings that I had hoped for one day Mr. Toriyama would ask me about it.
I grew up with his manga, Dr. Slump in the lower grades of elementary school and Dragon Ball in the upper grades, and it was natural for me to have his manga as a part of my life.
Even when I was having a bad day, the weekly Dragon Ball made me forget about it. As a country boy with nothing, that was a relief to me.
I really enjoyed Dragon Ball too much!
I was a college student. Suddenly, Dragon Ball, which had been a part of my life for so many years, came to an end.
I felt a tremendous sense of loss and didn't know what to look forward to.
But at the same time, it was an opportunity for me to truly understand the greatness of the master who created Dragon Ball.
I wanted to create a work like his!
I wanted to be just like him!
And as I followed in his footsteps to become a manga artist, I began to feel less and less lost.
It was because I enjoyed making manga.
By following him, I was able to find new enjoyment.
Sensei was always my guide.
He was my admirer.
I may be annoying to him, but I am grateful to him.
For me, he was truly the God of salvation and the God of manga.
When I first met him, I was too nervous to say a single word.
But after meeting him many times at the Tezuka Award judging, I became able to talk.
I will never forget the slightly embarrassed smile on his face when he and Mr. Oda talked excitedly about how Dragon Ball was fun, as if they were children again and were engaged in a competition.
I just received the news of Sensei's passing.
I feel a tremendous sense of loss, more than when Dragon Ball ended...
I still don't know how to deal with this hole in my heart.
I can't even read Dragon Ball, which I love.
I don't even feel like I can write this message to Sensei properly.
Everyone in the world was still looking forward to your work.
If I could really have one Dragon Ball wish come true...I'm sorry...
That may be selfish of me, but I am sad, Sensei.
Akira Toriyama-sensei, thank you for 45 years of enjoyable works.
And thank you for your hard work.
I am sure that his family members are still deeply saddened by this loss.
Please take care of yourselves.
I pray that Akira Toriyama-sensei may rest in peace."

Akira Toriyama recently passed away. He was Masashi Kishimoto's biggest influence for Naruto. Without him the series wouldn't exist. Kishimoto said as much in an interview with ANN during NYCC. We owe him so much. Thank you for everything, Akira Toriyama.

Kishimoto is so funny. 'oh everyone thinks Sasuke and Naruto are in love? That's weird. Here, I'll just make them soulbonded reincarnations of a generations old conflict, to emphasis their brotherly bond' SIR????

@violetvelourr I found the design sketch Kishimoto did for it that I told you about XD
Tumblr media
It might be the same one you've mentioned but it's not just about the belt, if you look closely, you will see the snap buttons at the side of the vest
Tumblr media
So it explains that after you remove the belt, you just need to unfasten the snap buttons (at the side and the shoulders) then voila, the vest is off! 😁 It's way harder to take off and put on than the old design tho lol

Edit: seems like people misunderstood what I meant when I posted this. In the context of what I’m talking about (Naruto), the point the writer is conveying is incoherent and badly flawed by the portrayal of the villains.
Kishimoto wants to convey to us that you have good in you despite the “darkness”. The issue arises when he uses characters that - by his own series morals - are morally in the wrong. He himself set up a system where someone is deserving of redemption. So yes the idea of “deserving” makes perfect sense for the story I’m talking about

Araki -
Btw Araki uses the word 'Utsukushi' for beautiful men, which is the same term Orochimaru uses to describe Sasuke.
Nagisa Oshima -

J. R. Ackerley (he was a prolific writer who worked for BBC, he was openly homosexual in a homophobic England of the mid twentieth century) -

Anti SNS Sasuke Stans - Remember, Kishimoto comes from a very small village and is from a different generation altogether; so the odds of him penning anything even close to the “sexual categorizations” of the post-modern western sexual-domains are less than the second coming of Christ.

I would like to start a petition to have Kishi (bless his oblivious soul) write an alternative universe - Canon Divergent where Naruto e Sasuke can be together.
Tumblr media
If they made that sasusaku/dino shit (by a fan who doesn’t even know canon) and The Last (which literally blasphemes the canon), so I think anything is possible.
(I think the sns fandom would pay them even better).
