You do realise that kishi....

[lnvalid]

Both writes the manga for Naruto and has rights to the trademark "naruto"

-_-

so when I head all these "Kishi doesn't write the anime, just the manga. Don't blame him for fillers, etc." I just laugh.

You do realise that every episode of the anime has to have his approval to be aired right?
So he does have complete control of the anime and the manga. He may not make the plot for each episode, but it is ran by him for his approval to make sure it wouldn't contradict the manga.

just had to get this out there. (and I honestly hope most ppl here already knew this, just a small few need to realize this.)

People will still say only manga is canon.

 

[Frikid]

yup so it is safe to say anything in anime is cannon

 

[GoneLookingForMyself]

Dear God.
I didn't know that before, thank you. My respect for him has now plummeted even further.

There are many types of cannon. Did you know george lucas approves all star wars expansions? But i bet you won't say the clone wars animated movie counts in the star wars trilogies.

Oh I agree, only manga is cannon, but its the fact that some ppl think that the anime has nothing to do with him is what gets to me. thats all. Yes manga will only be cannon though.

 

[Lamperouge]

no matter, the manga is still the only thing canon.

 

[blackbook]

Helpful to know, prior to this I hadn't been sure if Kishimoto had anything to do with the anime or not.

 

[UchihaMifune]

+rep for the facts dude. Some people still think that ALLL anime is canon now, and while the majority of it is, none of the fillers are, even if their approved by kishi they technically never happened

is the why the 6 tails jinchuuriki and naruto dont recognise each other

KOTOR isn't part of the Trilogy... but its still part of the universe

[OfficialKurama]
