Naruto: The Last Movie and Last Chapter

Hello anime fans, as many of you know the last two chapters of Naruto the manga were release today, the Chapter 699 included an ending to the final arc and Chapter 700 is an epilog to the series.

You can read the chapters here:


In other Naruto news the "Naruto: The Last" is set to air in Japan on December 6, 2014. "Kishimoto-sensei says the manga and movie are connected, and because that is the case the manga should be read to completion first. However, even if one hasn’t finished the manga it’s alright! He continues on mentioning that he’s going to be blunt and say the movie is about love! There hasn’t been a movie with a romantic theme thus far so he hopes fans will enjoy the experience."

Here is the Trailer:

More News on “The Last: Naruto the Movie”

To read the original post click here!

The Last: Naruto Movie Release Date,
News: Anime Movie Launches Dec. 6, 2014 in Japan. The upcoming Naruto anime film entitled 'The Last: Naruto the Movie' is scheduled for a Dec. 6 release in Japan, it will mark the tenth full-length film based on the manga series. - Google



Recently a sketch for Kakashi and Sasuke was released in addition to Naruto, Sakura, Sai, Gaara, Lee, Choji, Tenten and Temari.


Bonus!

A new chapter in Naruto’s spin off manga “Rock Lee’s Spring Time of Youth,” reveals a sketch of Hinata’s sister Hanabi from “The Last Naruto the Movie.”



The manga is based of Naruto Shippuden. Created by Kenji Taira, the anime premiered on TV Tokyo on April 3, 2012. Crunchyroll currently has episodes available for streaming.

Rock Lee & His Ninja Pals is the first spin-off anime series that does not follow the main plot of the Naruto Shippuuden series, although it retains the original voice actors. The series chronicles the daily life and training of Konohagakure ninja Rock Lee, who can utilize taijutsu, but has no skill in ninjutsu or genjutsu. Episodes feature comical scenes and mini-skits to emphasize the characters' goals and thought processes. – Wiki


I do recommend this anime it’s like a Teen Titans Go! version of Naruto Shippuden. Here is a link to an episode and the manga.

Black Butler Season 3

On April 17, 2014 the UConn Greater Hartford Anime Club showcased Black Butler Episode 1 and for those interested in finishing the first season here is the link to both the English Dub and English Sub.



For those who recognized season two to be non-canon (not following the manga) have no fear, the long awaited season 3 is now stemming. 


Kuroshitsuji: Book of Circus aka Black Butler Season 3 is going to follow a very specific arc within the manga, so it is as plot driven as it is entertaining.
