NARUTO UZUMAKI
Naruto is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Masashi Kishimoto. It tells the story of Naruto Uzumaki, an adolescent ninja who searches for recognition and dreams of becoming the Hokage, the leader of his village. The story is divided into two parts, the first set in Naruto's preteen years, and the second in his teens. The series is based on two one-shot manga by Kishimoto: Karakuri (1995), which earned Kishimoto an honorable mention in Shueisha's monthly Hop Step Award the following year, and Naruto (1997).
As of 2017, Naruto is the third best-selling manga series in history, selling more than 220 million copies worldwide in 35 countries outside Japan. It has become one of Viz Media's best-selling manga series; their English translations of the volumes have appeared on USA Today and The New York Times bestseller list several times, and the seventh volume won a Quill Award in 2006. Reviewers praised the manga's character development, strong storylines, and well-executed fight scenes, though some felt the fight scenes slowed the story down. Critics noted that the manga, which has a coming-of-age theme, makes use of cultural references from Japanese mythology and Confucianism.

OPENING SONG Original / Romaji Lyrics English Translation Habata itara modoranai to itte Mezashita no wa aoi aoi ano sora
You say if you could fly, you would never come back You aimed for that blue, blue sky
"Kanashimi" wa mada oboerarezu
"Setsunasa" wa ima tsukami hajimeta
Anata e to daku kono kanjou mo
Ima "kotoba" ni kawatte iku
You've yet to remember "sadness" Just now began to grasp "pain" Even the feelings I held onto for you Are just now changing into words
Michi naru sekai no yume* kara mezamete
kono hane wo hiroge tobitatsu
As you awaken from the dream of an unknown world Spread your wings and take off
Habata itara modoranai to itte
Mezashita no wa shiroi shiroi ano kumo
Tsukinuketara mitsukaru to shitte
You say if you could fly, you would never come back You aimed for those white, white clouds If you break through, you know you'll find it
Furikiru hodo aoi aoi ano sora
aoi aoi ano sora
aoi aoi ano sora
So try until you break free to that blue, blue sky That blue, blue sky That blue, blue sky
Aisou sukita you na oto de
Sabireta furui mado wa kowareta
With a sound like all civility was gone The rusted, old window broke
Miakita kago wa hora sutete iku
Furikaeru koto wa mou nai
Takanaru kodou ni kokyuu wo azukete**
Kono mado wo kette tobitatsu
Look, you're so sick of looking at that cage that you're throwing it away Without ever looking back again That throbbing beat takes your breath away And you kick open that window and take off
Kakedashitara te ni dekiru to itte
Izanau no wa tooi tooi ano koe
Mabushi sugita anata no te mo nigitte
Motomeru hodo aoi aoi ano sora
You said if you could run, you would obtain it You're tempted by that distant, distant voice It grasps your far too dazzling hand Until you pursue that blue, blue sky
Ochite iku to wakatte ita
Soredemo hikari wo oi tsudzukete iku yo
I understand that you are falling But still, continue to follow the light
Habata itara modoranai to itte
Sagashita no wa shiroi shiroi ano kumo
Tsukinuketara mitsukaru to shitte
Furikiru hodo aoi aoi ano sora
You say if you could fly, you would never come back You searched for those white, white clouds If you break through, you know you'll find it So try until you break free to that blue, blue sky
Aoi aoi ano sora
aoi aoi ano sora
That blue, blue sky
That blue, blue sky
