CATDOLL: The truth behind the ending of Naruto: The author didn’t want to draw anymore 7 years ago

The online version of Cyzo Premium, a magazine specializing in insider revelations, has released the full content of the first installment of its series of reports titled "9 consecutive revelations of the truth behind rumors in the comics world"!

Naruto, which has countless fans all over the world, reached its finale in Weekly Shonen Jump, which was released on November 10, 2014. Some readers suspected that the ending of the work was abruptly "cut off", but people related to Jump said that it was actually caused by "the dependence of the editors of Jump on the author".

"The ending of Naruto is definitely not something that was decided overnight. About seven years ago, Kishimoto has been telling people around him that he "doesn't want to continue serializing." I've heard him say many times that "I'll finish the next part" (bitter smile). However, for this work that is even more popular than "One Piece" overseas, "JUMP" will not let it end so easily. From Kishimoto's perspective, he should feel that "it's finally finished with great effort."

"The editors at Shueisha and Kodansha work differently. When the manga artist is stuck in a bottleneck, they will not actively offer various suggestions. Basically, they leave the creation 100% to the manga artist himself. On the positive side, this is to respect the originality of the manga artist, but it is also because of this that once the work becomes popular, it is easy to procrastinate and continue to procrastinate..."

So, why did "Naruto" end at this time after being delayed for 7 years?

"The biggest reason is simply that new 'cash cows' such as 'Haikyuu!' and 'Assassination Classroom' have grown vigorously. Judging from the current situation, like 'Naruto', Kubo Tite's 'Bleach', which has been begging for a quick end to its serialization, will also soon come to an end."
