Minato Namikaze, one of the most loved characters in the Naruto franchise, will finally be getting his own manga series. The announcement was made by Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of Naruto, and fans couldn’t be more excited. The manga series is set to be released in Weekly Shounen Jump next summer.
The manga will focus on the secret story behind Minato’s jutsu development. Minato won the Naruto p99 popularity poll, which is why he earned his own manga series. Kishimoto has promised that the manga will have a lot to offer for fans who want to know more about Minato.
Throughout his life, Minato was known as one of the strongest shinobi in the village of Konoha, earning him the nickname “Yellow Flash”. He put his life on the line as the Fourth Hokage to protect his village and his son from Kurama’s attack. Despite being a fan favorite, fans never got to know much about Minato’s past in the main Naruto series since he died before the series began.
Now, fans can rest easy knowing that they will finally get to read about Minato’s journey. Here are some possible storylines that fans can expect to see in the manga:
1. The story behind Rasengan development: Fans can expect to see how Minato developed Rasengan, one of the most powerful jutsu in Naruto.
2. Clan Namikaze: Fans can finally learn more about the Namikaze clan, from which Minato hails.
3. Team Jiraiya: Minato’s teammates during their time under Jiraiya’s training will also get some spotlight, with fans hoping to see characters like Mikoto Uchiha and Choza Akimichi.
4. Kushina Uzumaki: As Minato’s love interest, Kushina will also likely be a key character in the manga, revealing more about their relationship.
5. Minato’s intelligence: Fans can expect to see how intelligent Minato was, especially when it came to researching and studying Bijuu.
The upcoming release of the Minato Namikaze manga series has fans eagerly waiting for its arrival. With Kishimoto involved in the project, fans can expect nothing but the best from this highly anticipated series.
