It's the same look everyone gives me. No, it's stronger than that. Wait... it's not for me. #Shippuden12:07 PM · Jul 7, 201911526Sasuke... that look in his eyes. It's the same look everyone gives me. No, it's stronger than that. Wait... it's not for me. #Shippuden https://t.co/ivedsD8ZlZBoth Akira Toriyama and Masashi Kishimoto admitted to getting rid of certain details since it was difficult to draw it in every frame. Goku was supposed to have a tail, which was removed because Toriyama simply found it annoying to draw them. Similarly Kishimoto stopped drawing a pair of goggles that Naruto used to use during the earlier episodes of the series.7) Western inspirationToriyama drew inspiration from 101 Dalmations (Image via Disney)Robert Rodriguez@Rodriguez#FBF with Quentin Tarantino, Frank Darabont and Scott Spiegel http://t.co/tLALmwphK312:26 PM · Dec 21, 2013244157#FBF with Quentin Tarantino, Frank Darabont and Scott Spiegel http://t.co/tLALmwphK3Toriyama was inspired by the animation quality in 101 Dalmations and decided to set a similar standard while he was working on Dragon Ball. The creator of Naruto was inspired by Quentin Tarantino. Some of the dramatic shots in Naruto were inspired by Tarantino’s works.8) Similar relationship with their parentsBardock and Gine (image via Toei Animation)Minato Namikaze@Minato__Hokage#Minato #Kushina #Naruto #Boruto #NarutoShippuden8:36 AM · Mar 15, 20183#Minato #Kushina #Naruto #Boruto #NarutoShippuden https://t.co/8E7tfaFyTVBoth Goku and Naruto’s parents were dead when these two characters were quite young. Goku’s parents, Bardock and Gine, sacrificed their lives in order to give Goku a shot at survival. Similarly, Naruto and the rest of Konohagakure survived because Minato performed the reaper death seal in order to seal Kurama into Naruto.
