Naruto Shometsu: A Promising Sequel Exploring the Aftermath of War

Naruto Shometsu, the fan manga that follows Naruto while ignoring Boruto, is shaping up to be captivating. Created by Tony Levallant on art and Darkos on script (known for his work on Dragon Ball Kakume), this manga explores the consequences of the 4th Great Ninja War and promises a rich and complex plot.

A Tense Geopolitical Context Naruto Shometsu

Two years after the end of the 4th Great Ninja War, the shinobi world is still fragile. The alliance of the five great nations has not succeeded in uniting all the hidden villages. Some, left behind and scarred by the war, harbor a deep resentment towards Konoha and the alliance. Naruto Shometsu brilliantly exploits this tension, offering a nuanced perspective on the consequences of the conflict.

  • Alliances are formed to counter the power of the coalition of the five great nations.
  • The objective of these alliances is to retrieve the Bijuu, legendary creatures that are sources of conflict.
  • Kakashi, who has become Hokage, opposes this idea, wishing to protect the Bijuu and repair the mistakes of the past.

Complex Characters Driven by Revenge

Naruto Shometsu features tortured characters whose motivations are rooted in suffering and loss. Forget Manichaeism, here the “bad guys” have valid reasons to act.

  • A powerful new antagonist, with ties to Pain, appears in the very first chapter.
  • He challenges the Kage and reveals the attack on Konoha village, where Naruto finds himself confronted by determined enemies.
  • These enemies are survivors of villages destroyed by the Zetsu, abandoned by the shinobi alliance.
  • Their desire for revenge is palpable and understandable.

A Dynamic Style and Explosive Battles

Tony Levallant’s drawing style is dynamic and pays homage to the Naruto universe. The fights are intense and showcase impressive techniques.

  • Rock Lee, a secondary character often overlooked, is highlighted in Naruto Shometsu.
  • The clashes are carefully choreographed and offer spectacular scenes.
  • The balance between explosive techniques and close combat promises memorable moments.

Naruto Shometsu: A Promising Future?

The first chapter of Naruto Shometsu lays the foundation for a captivating storyline. The complexity of the characters, the geopolitical stakes, and the exploration of the consequences of war promise an exciting adventure.

It is fascinating to note that Darkos, the screenwriter, chooses to explore the psychology of the characters and the gray areas of morality. Naruto Shometsu promises to be an ambitious sequel that could well exceed the expectations of fans.
