When Kishimoto was originally creating the Naruto series, he looked to other shōnen manga for influences while attempting to make his characters as unique as possible. [66] Kishimoto cites Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball series as one of his influences, noting that Goku, the protagonist, was a key factor when creating Naruto Uzumaki due to his energetic and mischievous personality. [67] Kishimoto cited The Matrix as an inspiration for the redesigned character outfits. [68] He has also cited Yoshihiro Togashi as one of his favorite manga authors, [37] while the manga Sasuke by Sanpei Shirato inspired Kishimoto in the developing Sasuke Uchiha. [69] Naruto Jinraiden: The Day the Wolf Howled ( NARUTO－ナルト－　迅雷伝　狼の哭く日, Naruto Jinraiden: Ōkami no Naku Hi ) — 2012, illustrator Welcome to another step by step tutorial. Here, you will learn how to draw Naruto, a character from the popular anime series, Naruto. This easy to follow, step by step tutorial will guide you through the whole process of creating an impressive and believable rendition of the anime character. Naruto has different versions of the character depending on the moment of the series. In this tutorial, the version we are going to draw is the Naruto Shippuden version. We will start by drawing a dummy that will serve as a base over which we will draw our final sketch.

When drawing the characters, Kishimoto consistently follows a five-step process: concept and rough sketch; drafting; inking; shading; and coloring. These steps are followed when he is drawing the manga and making the color illustrations that commonly adorn the cover of tankōbon; the cover of Weekly Shōnen Jump; or other media. The toolkit he uses occasionally changes. [71] For instance, he used an airbrush for one illustration for a Weekly Shōnen Jump cover but decided not to use it for future drawings largely due to the cleanup required. [72]

Naruto: Sasuke's Story — Sunrise ( NARUTO－ナルト－　サスケ真伝 来光篇, Naruto: Sasuke Shinden Raikōhen) — 2015, illustrator During his last years before graduating from Kyushu Sangyo University, Kishimoto spent time drawing manga and went to an art college with the hopes of becoming a manga artist. [14] Upon entering college, Kishimoto decided he should try creating a Chanbara manga since Weekly Shōnen Jump had not published a title from that genre. However, during the same year, Kishimoto started reading Hiroaki Samura's Blade of the Immortal and Nobuhiro Watsuki's Rurouni Kenshin (the latter of which was published in Weekly Shonen Jump), which used the said genre. Kishimoto recalls having never been surprised by manga ever since reading Akira and found that he still was not able to compete against them.
