The \u201cNaruto\u201d franchise is set to expand with a new anime television series crossing over with the manga \u201cNINK\u016a\u201d and a new manga titled \u201cShadow Rising\u201d by creator Masashi Kishimoto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The announcements were made during a panel at New York Comic Con on Saturday, where the upcoming anime, \u201cNARUTOxNINK\u016a\u201d, was unveiled under the supervision of Kishimoto and \u201cNINK\u016a\u201d creator Koji Kiriyama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the official description, Team 7 members Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura receive a mission from Kakashi. As Kakashi cannot accompany them, Naruto is appointed acting leader and becomes determined to complete the mission successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the trio gets lost in another world, where they encounter a boy named F\u016bsuke, whose face resembles a frog\u2019s. The series will follow their journey through the unfamiliar world and the challenges that await them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The panel concluded with a teaser video announcing Kishimoto\u2019s new Naruto manga, \u201cShadow Rising\u201d, which is likely to follow events after Naruto became the Hokage. Further details are expected to be revealed at Jump Festa 2027 in December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A message from Destin Daniel Cretton, director of the upcoming live-action \u201cNaruto\u201d film, was also shared during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cretton said the production team was excited about bringing Kishimoto\u2019s characters and world to life, adding that the film would focus on Naruto\u2019s determination, compassion and perseverance despite repeated failures and being underestimated by others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the team was approaching the world, relationships and journeys created by Kishimoto with care and was working hard on the film, with more updates to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
