I was surprised by Minato’s popularity in every area, and I never thought Sakura would be this popular worldwide, so I was pleased as the original author. I want to add Kurama… I added a drawing with 21st place Guy-sensei.

Due to personal circumstances, I ignored the 20-person project gun for the 20th anniversary. Sorry. I’m writing a one-shot manga about Minato, which was number one. I wanted to respond to everyone’s excellent response, so I drew more pages than I thought. Please look forward to the secret story about the Minato development technique.
