NMU: So … have you ever thought about where this manga is going after the end of the Ninja World War?
Kishi: Honestly, I’m not really sure what I’m going to do after Naruto saves the world from Infinite Tsukuyomi. Maybe I’ll just start pairing everybody off and turn it into a shoujo manga.
NMU: That would probably make a lot of fans really happy.
Kishi: Well, I guess it’s about time I started playing to their tastes. You know it really amazes me how many people read my shit just to ship the characters. I mean, have I ever really established any kind of precedent for romantic pairings in this manga, other than Asuma and Kurenai? And even in that case, I ended up killing off Asuma. Naruto is clearly a shonen manga, so what on earth makes the potential romances so compelling? What the **** is wrong with you people?
NMU: In a way it’s kind of brilliant, man. By giving so few discernible hints about who will end up with who, you’ve made the possibilities literally limitless. Name two characters, and it is theoretically possible that they could end up together.
Kishi: Aside from the part where you’re telling me how the **** I write my manga, that seemed about right.
NMU: How about after Naruto is done? Any projects in the works?
Kishi: I was thinking about writing a Naruto spin-off called Sasuke. It will be the exact same manga as Naruto, except Sasuke will win.
NMU: He’ll win?
Kishi: Yeah. He’ll kill Naruto, destroy Konoha, murder its inhabitants and then continually rape the corpses of his victims. Afterwards, he’ll declare himself King of the Ninjas and live out his life in incomparable luxury, with concubine slaves and an endless supply of liquor and fine-ass food.
NMU: Ummm …
Kishi: Like I said, Sasuke is my fave-fave. I just want him to be happy. One of my biggest regrets was not making him the main character of Naruto.
NMU: Okay, but …
Kishi: Do you want to meet Sasuke? I keep him in my closet!
NMU: Isn’t Sasuke a fic-
Kishi: Come on, let me show you!
Kishimoto walks me down a seemingly endless hallway, which finally ends at the base of a long, winding staircase. We walk up the stairs and into his bedroom, which is literally as large as a football field, and littered with hot tubs, some of which are filled with naked women, others of which are filled with Cheetos. I grab a handful, and he motions for me to sit down on the edge of his bed.
Kishi: Wait here. I’ll go get him for you.
And Kishimoto heads into his closet for a couple of minutes, before finally emerging with what appears to be a blowup doll version of Sasuke.
Kishi: Say hi, Sasuke!
He manipulates the doll’s hand to wave at me, and I begin to feel slightly uncomfortable. Kishimoto’s eccentricity had spilled over into the realm of insanity, and I wasn’t sure what he’d try next.
