Kishi interview( major spoilers!!!!!)

[Uchiha Madara]

After much searching I was able to dig up Kishi's statements from his interview about the manga in 08'/09'. Note that all of the statements save the conformations are all from the mouth of the naruto creator himself, so even the ones that have not been confirmed will most likely end up as being true. So, if any of you do not wish to know what will happen next, then don't bother reading beyond this. For those who do however, prepare for the bigest and most true spoilers yet.

SPOILER: Click to show

first of all, I would like to warn you all about this, these are Kishi's preview that aren't confirmed yet*; however, most of them seems quite true/confirmed about it, and please understand that it's quite hard to translate directly Korean to English , and it would be messed
up b/c i used translator in parts too. So please excuse the WEIRDASS phrases.
*Kishi said this preview before 2008 Jump Festa.

1. Akatsuki Leader's(not confirmed if its Pein / Madara) strength can't be matched even with 3 Sannins of the leaf.

-> With Jiraiya's death against Pain this seems to be confirmed, and by knowing that even Orochimaru was under Pain's lead
when he was in Akatsuki

2. There is another character in Akatsuki, and unexpected member will bring a chaos

-> I would also like to say this preview is confirmed, and this unexpected member would be Tobi(Uchiha Madara)

3. One of the Akatsuki's member becomes friend/ally with Naruto

-> not yet confirmed, I'm expecting it to be Konan or Kisame

4. Naruto's seal will be released by the end of 08, or beginning of the 09. At least 4 tails will be released, be prepared it could
be shocking scene

-> also not yet confirmed...

5. Toad dies(he laughs)

-> confirmed with Jiraiya's death

6. 3 of Naruto's important people will die or get seriously injured

-> almost confirmed. Jiraiya(dead), Sasuke(injured, barely alive), maybe Kakashi or Tsunade for 3rd person

7. Sasuke's skills cannot be matched against Naruto's new skills.

-> not yet confirmed, seems to be will be. These "new skills" will be the result of 2 and half year training, that Naruto
had hid it all along until now.(May include Jiraiya's restriction... but well Naruto will use it anyway)

8. Sasuke v. Itachi is great scale, and later Naruto's information about family and bloodline will show up

-> confirmed with first part, Sasuke v. Itachi is over with Sasuke's victory. Quite funny that my prediction matched with Kishi's
even though its not confirmed yet. I've thought there would be something about "Namikaze" ever since 4th name was revealed

9. Sai, he will cause something huge(laughs)

-> hmm interesting... reminds me of Jiraiya's warning... not confirmed yet

10. 4th's secret and bloodline will be shown

-> confirmed, by revealing that 4th's blood line with its name "Namikaze Minato"* Also confirmed by showing that 4th is
Naruto's father
*I expect there are more secrets about 4th

11. 2 huge characters of Konoha will die.

-> Jiraiya, in my opinion next one will be Kakashi or Tsunade

12. There is a female member in Akatsuki

-> confirmed, Konan

13. Akatsuki will invade Konoha with its mysterious beasts, and Shiranui Genma will provide great help to Konoha

-> not yet confirmed


Followings are the Kishi's words @ 2008 Jump Festa

1. Uchiha's secret will be revealed and 2 of the remaining will die

-> confirmed, Uchiha's secret of MS and etc revealed by Itachi, and Itachi is dead.**
** I think there will be more secrets about Uchiha besides about MS and Madara

2. Akatsuki's leader kills 6 people

-> not yet confirmed, however I think Pain did kill "6" people including Jiraiya. The other 5 would be Pain's bodies.

3. Sasuke and Itachi's fight will cause chaos; Uchiha, Uchiha Madara's secrets are revealed and all the skills of the MS will be revealed. The fight will end with death of one.
*** MS : Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu, and finally Susano'o

-> confirmed

4. Naruto will collide with Pain; Kakashi's team will collide with Tobi. There will be big turnaround on Tobi v. Kakashi's team.
Naruto v. Pain will be fights of the "beasts". Be prepared, during this fight there will be deaths from Naruto's team.

-> not yet confirmed.

5. 3 new members will join the Akatsuki. They will be stronger than Deidara, Hidan, and Kakuzu. One of them is the brother/sister of the Hokage

-> not yet confirmed, but the brother/sister of the Hokage will be likely to be Tsunade's???

6. Naruto's new skills and the result of the training will reveal when he fight against Pain.
He have learned all of the Jiraiya's jutsu during the 3 years of the time and he became
much stronger. He did not learn the "toad mode or w.e u call it". Naruto also learned
3 of the 4th's jutsus.

-> not yet confirmed

7. After all these fights, there will be a great war

-> not yet confirmed

8. There will be death on Tobi v. Naruto team and one of them becomes unable to fight.

-> not yet confirmed

9. Jinchuuriki of the 8 tailed will be revealed. This Jinchuuriki kills one of the Akatsuki's members and invades Konoha
by him/herself. During this fight one dies, and one will lose his/her eyesight

-> also not yet confirmed.

Karma For Digging this up yo! even though i am not going to look at it!

[Uchiha Madara]

Thanks, although it was not that difficult.(Since I know where to look.)

[火Pablo火]

Still Its awesome.
And welcome back i hope you stick around more!

[DEADPOOL]

"3. One of the Akatsuki's member becomes friend/ally with Naruto"

Possibly Itachi.

"9. Jinchuuriki of the 8 tailed will be revealed. This Jinchuuriki kills one of the Akatsuki's members and invades Konoha
by him/herself. During this fight one dies, and one will lose his/her eyesight"

...Umm, could Jiraiya be the 8-Tails?? Jiraiya killed one of Pein's bodies and blinded another.

[火Pablo火]

Maybe you know alot of Jiraiya Awesome!

and i hope Itachi become friends with Naruto

[madskittlez]

do ya'll think that maybe one of the 3 people important to naruto who get hurt killed maimed etc. could be Iruka or Sakura instead of just Tsunade/jiraiya/kakashi or is there anything specific, i've already seen what happens to one of em, and kinda get what happens to another one but i dunno people spin these things like crazy lol. Also i saw another post someone had of this interview and it goes into people possibly losing eye sight...sux for those sharingan users =D..

[*gaara love*]

SPOILER: Click to show

Did Hinata count as part of the close people to Naruto that died? Plus I can see Konan joining "the good guys" if something happens to Pein like he gets killed or back stabbed or something. Another person who might turn could be Zetsu. So far he has been very mysterious and only shown following orders and spying however it's the most loyal ones you have to worry about. I think Zetsu might actually be the one to turn since so little is truly known of him and Kishi probably wants to do some big revelation with him.

Awesome work on digging all this up though!
