From Leaf Village, 13 warriors rise up to fight. Since debuting as a manga by KISHIMOTO Masashi in 1999, Naruto, which successfully melds the protagonist’s coming-of-age story with ninja action, has become a worldwide phenomenon spanning comic books, animation, and games. Completed in time for the series’ 10th anniversary, this theatrical release is the sixth film overall and the third movie for Naruto Shippuden, corresponding to its second season. Its foremost theme is the value of friendship and new connections. When ninja who have bloodline limits start disappearing, the peace among the five countries is threatened and the countdown to another large-scale ninja war begins. As suspicion accrues on the Country of Fire, the only country not to suffer any losses, Kakashi risks his life to prevent the looming crisis. After learning of Kakashi’s intentions from the token he has left Naruto, the warriors head to the field of battle. This animated movie offers ninja action on a grand scale rarely seen on the TV series, and showcases the ongoing maturation of Naruto himself. The subtitle “Inheritors of the Will of Fire” refers to Naruto, the inheritor of Kakashi’s teachings.(KWON Yong Min)
