Fourth Databook Interview Excerpts

[Chie]

A recent interview was included in the Fourth Databook. It hasn't been fully translated yet, but here are some parts from it:

>Regrets showing Hokage mountain early since it took away the suspense from when the kages were actually shown (since we knew what their faces looked like beforehand).

>Kushina was supposed to look cute and pretty. Not having much *** appeal, since that would be inappropriate as she is the hero's mother.

>Character wanted that was the reverse of Naruto.

>That character was Sasuke.

>Numerous designs made for Sasuke throughout series.

>Meant to be cool.

>Yahagi's fave character is Gaara. (Kosuke Yahagi is Kishimoto's first editor)

>Both Shippuden designs look good in their opinion.

>Killer Bee has an interesting way of speaking. It adds uniqueness to the character this way.

>Naming is really important and it is hoped that the name decided upon reflects the character's role in the story.

>Izanami seemed like an exciting and intricate tech to end the fight, a sister tech of Izanagi. It was found to be cool.


Kishimoto thanks people for reading the 4th databook which was created with the efforts of himself and his staff.

Naruto's mom was a MILF. So he failed pretty hard.

 

[Angelic.]

i disagree with the hokage monument statement. it made them cool and mysterious.

I don't think he failed. He still wanted her to be attractive- just not so much that she'd lose that motherly feel. He refrained from making her have a large chest like Tsunade/Hinata did. Also, her clothes are very conservative. I think that says something at least.

Thanks for info, Chie.

 

[Sugiyama]

Thanks for sharing.
I also think that Kushina's design was very subtle and decent. It suits her character and the role she's supposed to play.

Kishi's getting so busy recently, didn't he plan to the honeymoon~?

 

[Natsu Shazneel]

Chie has done it again. Made another thread about Kishi's work. There is no stopping this solo queen now.

No problem.
