I know this sounds naive but I never really read a manga.... or a comic book now that I think of it. I typed in naruto manga in wikipedia and read up on it a little bit.

So, what I found is that the manga is split into two parts, 1 and 2. Part 1 has 27 different volumes that come out roughly 4-5 months apart, each volume is a book. Each book/volume has a bunch of different chapters in it. Did I get that right?

I youtubed the first 10 episodes of Naruto and really liked it. I then realized it would be impossible to see the whole anime from the beggining, I guess I kind of missed the boat. I want to buy the first book just to see if I can get into it. Anyone know where I can get that and how much it'll cost? I'm thinking Chapters mabey...... and is it in colour?

It isn't impossible to watch it from the beginning. My friend Qla managed to watch episodes 1-220 of the original and about 17 episodes of shippuden in about a week.

The chapters in the volumes are not colour. Just the classic black and white which makes it ten times as awesome. There is SOME colour in the shonen jump releases but only about a page or two. The only exception to this is when Tite Kubo, creator of Bleach, did a full colour chapter when it was a very important stage in one of the battles.
 
more or less

manga>subbed>dubbed

imo, i'm leaving out raw because i cant read JP, and it may be better than subbed since it retains its original perspective; a bit is lost through each translation.
 
Yeah Shonen Jump, I read up on that too. Does that come in english translations?

mangashare/mangahelpers/etc always translates (called scanlation) chapters into english, usually within a day of raw release
 
Ohhh thank you so much.

Edit: I think it was you that gave me the animelist site but the videos would never load for me so I just stuck to Youtube.

I saw this in the Narutofan forums, where the author of Naruto answered some questions re: the Manga for 2008:

I went to Jump Festa 2008 today and saw Kishi was asked some questions about the manga by Junko (VA Naruto), Noriaki (VA Sasuke), Chie (VA Sakura) and Kazuhiko (VA Kakashi) on the stage.

(I feel like I should post this in the HoU or Telegrams, coz it's gonna be a huge spoiler. If I was wrong, move this to the right place, please.)


1. Is Jiraiya dead?
Kishi : He lives..............................in your heart.
Naruto has to be grown up. Shikamaru also needed to be grown up. And Sakura will have to be grown up, too. Lee? Lee doesn't need to be grown up anymore.

2. What's gonna happen next year?
Kishi : Started with Sasuke vs Itachi battle.
I'm gonna write about mainly Sasuke next year. And Kakashi and Sakura, after that. Especially Kakashi. I can't tell yet but a huge event will happen to him.

3. What kind of way of ending do you do with Sasuke vs Itachi battle?
Kishi : I can't tell. But I have kept this waiting to manga readers for a long time. So I'll have to make everyone gets content with it.

4. Describe the color of Sasuke vs Itachi battle.
Kishi : Glossy-Black

5. Describe the color of Kakashi story which you just mentioned about.
Kishi : Dark Blue

6. You said you're gonna write about Sasuke, Kakashi and Sakura. What about Naruto?
Kishi : Naruto has to wait.

7. Are you gonna write the battle of each member of Hebi?
Kishi : Actually I didn't want to. But Shueisha ordered me to do with something about them.

That's all. He didn't say anything about the Akatsuki on the stage.



I also went to BANDAI-NAMCO stage after that. Junko and Noriaki showed up and played Narutimate accel 2 in front of the audience.

Junko choose Naruto and Lee as a support character.
Noriaki choose Sasuke and Deidara as a support character.

Junko won the match. But Noriaki was really kind. He sometimes stopped to wait for Junko to show Ougi.

Hehe, fleist posted that above. And it bothers me he spends so much time on Sasuke but.. ah well... I still have a feeling Kakashi is going to be sacrificing himself soon to bring someone back to life using what's her name's (can't think of her name.. :|) resurrection jutsu thing.

Her name is Chiyo Ba Sama. I didn't think that her jutsu could be copied, though how many times do you see Kakashi using a copied jutsu, other than a movie.

It's just a shame that the main character of the story's strength is so far beneathe his main support cast. Sasuke can look at his enemy, put him in an alternate dimension, weaken him, manipulate the shape of lightening and stab someone with it, talk shit and state how great his clan is by comparison to everything else, and still not take one step toward his enemy. He might as well shit ice-cream to kill his enemy.

Naruto runs, throws a bunch of bunshins, uses a powerful a palm thrust that cannot be projected, falls, cries, and then cries some more.

Seriously, there's so much wrong with this story. How long must we wait to see the uber hero?

agree, but lol her last name isn't ba sama, that's a japanese formality that literally means "elder"
 
Well, it is a jutsu, it's not a Bloodline ability. So Kakashi could have copied it. After all, his Sharingan was out when she used it. I see Kakashi's death coming D:
 
maybe he sacrifices himself to resurrect Jiraiya >.O

That would suck though. Jiraiya's death served a purpose.
 
I actually like the fact that the hero isnt the strongest of all...

In stuff like DBZ and other anime the main character was always the strongest and always got the most spotlight, in Bleach and Naruto they still share spotlight to the support regardless of how strong the main character is, you'd also have to consider Naruto's personality versus Sasuke....Sasuke has changed a lot allowing him to show no emotions.

When Sasuke first fought Itachi again, he was just like Naruto and at a comparable level to him, and easily lost; what Itachi said was correct about Sasuke not really hating him enough to kill him, even if it was the wrong choice for Sasuke to leave to get stronger. Now Sasuke doesn't really feel anything now but hate twoards his brother, that's about it.

I think of Sasuke as Shinomori Aoshi in Ruroni Kenshin in the battle between Kenshin and Aoshi, Aoshi claims he comes to kill Kenshin for his fallen comrades and uses them as an excuse to kill and has given up on life to be stronger. Kenshin acknowledges his improved strength but says his heart barely casts a shadow because of his lack of self.
