Synopsis :
Naruto is a bit of a special boy. He is always alone and his fiery character does not really help him to be appreciated in his village. Despite this, he keeps deep within him an ambition: that of becoming a Master Hokage, the highest distinction in the order of ninjas, and thus obtain the recognition of his peers.
After 14 years of publication in France, Naruto bows out. The epic will have lasted 72 volumes and will surely create a big hole with the readership of manga, whether French or other. And if our ninja leaves, he takes the opportunity to do it with fanfare with the 25th anniversary of his French-speaking publisher Kana!
Around this last volume!
In addition to the latest volume that is present in all points of sale on November 4, the latest volume of Naruto is accompanied in the shelves by a new artbook of 114 pages, made by its mangaka Masashi Kishimoto. Made in flexible format, it will bring together original illustrations, large format covers, as well as comments by Kishimoto. You can also discover an exchange between Masashi Kishimoto and Avi Arad, the producer of Amazing Spider-Man. The artbook is sold at a price of 15 €.
And that's it? No, we are entitled to the release of the movie Boruto. Available in two formats, single box set and collector's box, this adventure takes place a few years after the Naruto manga, since its main character is the son of the latter. This will allow you to be simply curious or true fan of the series to discover the new generation of Konoha!
But that's not all, since this month will also witness the release of the third novel of the license. After Jiraiya's novel and Sasuke's novel, here is Kakashi's novel. The story will take you after the end of the 4th ninja war, when the "copier ninja" now deprived of his sharingan is inducted into the title of Hokage.
And then what?
Want more? Well, know that in March 2017 the succession will begin! Indeed, it is at this time that the first volume of the Boruto series will be released. We take the new generation and start again! Here, we will follow Naruto's son as he tries to pass the middle-class exam. He will be accompanied by Mistuki and Sarada, Sakura's daughter.
But to make you wait with this 4-month wait, Kana has decided to offer her audience the manga Naruto Gaiden. This one-shot set temporally just before the Boruto series will introduce us to the new generation of ninjas, and will develop its plot around the character of Sarada who seems shrouded in mysteries!
In short, you will understand, Naruto is over, but not quite! If we add to this the novels that continue in Japan (more than 12 volumes published in the land of the rising sun) and the episodes that are regularly released in DVD box set at Kana home video, we realize that we have not finished talking about the famous ninja!
