This recent interview seems to suggest Kishi doesn't like Sasuke as much as you fapboys do


Masashi Kishimoto: 15years with Naruto, tells anecdotes
(Naruto has closed its15 yrs history in WSJ. having a combined circulation of more than 200 million worldwide, it kept... blah blah)

◇the pressure of serializing in Jump "it was tough at first"

What have 15 years of keeping the series running as one of Jump's impregnable banner mangas been like For Mr Kishimoto?
Although the series made a good start attaining popularity, behind the scenes he had difficulties.
"The toughest time was in the beginning (of the series)" says Mr. Kishimoto looking back.
"I ran a fever and threw up. I think that was psychological stress as the presser of having a series in Jump wasn't half ass or something... I didn't know it'd be that heavy"
We know because, in addition to the fact that it was his first ever weekly series, the battlefield was that 'Jump' with a cutthroat competition for votes in the name of reader survey is. "it was severe. cos popularity is everything. Basically (Jump has) no use for unpopular stuff" Mr. Kishimoto explains how harsh it is.

He had more meetings (with his editor) not to mention longer hours at his desk working on the manga, than other manga writers. First meeting for a brainstorming, the second with a rough plot, the third with a storyboard and then...
The number of times of meeting was reduced to half by the end but still that alone tells how elaborately the manga was made. "Say, I worked all through the night to finish the chap and then went to bed. In 6 hours my editor would call to ask me” is the next storyboard ready?' I thought 'this world is dangerous!'" Mr. Kishimoto looks back the good old days.

◇Number-One for the first time with the Shuriken transformation

The first good response was felt around the time Zabrze appeared and Naruto transformed himself into a shuriken in the first part of the story. Mr. Kishimoto says "seeing that Naruto won the 1st place in the popularity poll and that pleased my editor" he thought it might be going well. Moreover, when he went to a doctor with a high fever, the doctor happened to be his reader. "He told me 'take some time off from work' 'Your cells are dead' 'take care of yourself'. He asked about my work and I said 'I'm a mangaka writing a manga called Naruto.' 'Ah I know, that one (with the boy) alchemized himself into a shuriken' said the doctor. I thought 'this doctor is watching too. Sure I cant get off of work'" he smiles.

Not just Naruto or Zabza, characters in the manga are appealing with distinctive traits, which is one of the characteristics of the manga. Mr. Kishimoto's favourite chara is shikamaru. Although extremely lazy he's a strategist type with a razor-sharp mind. That said,
"I like Naruto too. And choji lee... ...well actually I like all the charas." Mr. Kishimoto expresses his love for his charas. Only, he doesn't like Sasuke, the rival of the main chara, very much he adds. "Cos he has given me a lot of trouble. He isnt ductile/obedient... ...that I had a hard time (writing him)"

◇Naruto in Love? What is the highlight of the movie version?

About his feelings now that the series concluded, "with regard to Naruto, I did pretty well. " says Mr. Kishimoto with an air of satisfaction.
(Although the serialization ended the movie version...Blah blah)
"There aren't love romances with Naruto (in the manga), you know. What is it like to see a guy youve known for ages fall in love? Things like His kiss scene might be embarrassing (to watch)?" said Mr Kishimoto merrily as if he was just one of his readers.

It's okay to be obsessed with Lord Sasuke. I mean, why else would you have him in your username?

Lord Sasuke seems to have influenced you so much that you have his first name and his profile picture. Congratulations! Sasuke has become your envy.

I can't imagine you having a civilized conversation about Sasuke. Your username tells me all I need to know.

I like Sasuke, you clearly don't. Good day sir. :)

Yes Masashi doesn't like the 2nd main character in the story he's been making for 15+ years. He doesn't like Sasuke so much that he made his role at the very least as big as Naruto's and sometimes bigger.Multiple arcs about him,etc with the main character chasing him for years,having him as one of his main goals.

Lol

Wow, Kishimoto just admitted that Sasuke is the character that he can't manipulate the way he wants because Sasuke's personality. XD
More Respect to Sasuke XD

I wish more characters were like that. Where it forced Kishimoto to take effort to stay true to their character.

OP: U should really get over the fact that Sasuke bones ur fave (pretty sure it's sakura) on the regular:|
Obsession ain't healthy.

Are you seroius? Wasn't there a whole arc on searching for him? Reread,he even won the 1st character popularity poll for part 2,see chapter 292 even though he wasn't even in part 2 yet.

He wasn't in the first arc of part 1,yet he was mentioned several times.He wasn't in the Hidan and Kakazu arc yet Naruto's RS training itself was to catch up to Sasuke,and i remember i showed you in the past chapter 319,on the last past when Yamato noted Naruto's amazing progress her gave credit to the training method,then Kakashi corrected him saying how Naruto was able to progress so far due to Sasuke.

And i think it was the last few pages of 340,where Naruto wanted to go against Kakazu alone inorder to grow more to catch up to Sasuke,who he was thinking about in that moment.

Sasuke wasn't mentioned at all in only 1 arc - the Pain Invasion,actually it's funny.As i was literally typing the prevoius sentence i remember that Pain mentioned him to Naruto.

Later when Sasuke wasn't in the story was the Kyuubi training chapters but that itself only happened because Naruto wanted to have the Kyuubi's chakrs to fight Sasuke.Then we see a few glimpses of Sasuke throughout the begining of the War until he gets more screentime.
