News culture “An unforgettable technique” The author of Naruto had such a crazy idea to combine these two attacks that his editor thought it was a joke

“Let’s be serious”

To expand your Naruto manga, Masashi Kishimoto strove to develop a wide variety of techniquessometimes inspired by the legendary techniques of the feudal shinobis, sometimes based on various natural elements such as fire, lightning or even wind. But when it comes to his protagonist, the mangaka wanted to create attacks that are truly his own. So, When cloning becomes accessible to every aspiring ninja, Naruto learns the forbidden technique of multiple cloningwhereby the illusory doppelgangers are replaced by truly tangible and therefore much more powerful clones. But another of his favorite techniques serves more to drive his teachers crazy than to fight them: the Sexy Meta – a derivative of metamorphosis – which transforms the user into a naked young woman with voluptuous forms.

So these are two practices that are very effective on their own, but are absolutely impressive when combined: created the terrifying harem technique. It was this thought that crossed Kishimoto’s mind and he quickly suggested it to his editor, Kosuke Yahagi. It is in an interview for the 4th data book of the work that the two men returned to the matter and explained that the project was not originally planned not really welcomed with open arms. “When I suggested combining multi-cloning and sexy meta to develop the harem technique during a preparatory meeting, Yanagi-san laughed and then said, ‘How about we start this meeting in earnest?'”explains Masashi Kishimoto amused. He goes on to say that he “suggested the idea jokingly,” “but when I brought it up again, the answer changed to ‘let’s try it.'” When I drew it, I managed to get an “interesting” out of Yanagi-san. It’s an unforgettable technique until the end!”. The technique quickly became an integral part of the character and was even used in the final battle against Kaguya at the end of the 4th Great Ninja War!
