After Viz Media announced last May that they will be releasing several manga novels based on some of the popular characters of "Naruto," they recently confirmed that the first of the series will be released in November.
According to Design & Trend, the new series will be similar to "Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage" short manga series. It was revealed that the first manga to be released will be focusing on Kakashi's story. During the recent New York Comic-Con, fans were able to purchase some of the copies which were made available before its November release.
It was confirmed that Naruto himself will not be appearing in the novel and that the story is dedicated to Kakashi, who is the sixth Hokage. Venture Capital Post reports that the official synopsis for the novel reveals that the story will begin a year after the fourth Great Ninja War, and this is also the time when Kakashi's appointment to Hokage looms.
The story is about Kakashi's journey in finding answers to some of his questions, and he will also make some discoveries as he opens the door to a new ninja era. It will also be about how he will come to procure his sharingan. According to reports, the English translation of the title is "The Kakashi Side Story: A Boy's Life on the Battlefield," and it is considered to be an interval series between Parts 1 and 2 of Masashi Kishimoto's manga.
Kakashhi is one of the key characters in the Naruto series and is considered one of the strongest warriors in Konoha. He reportedly possesses a very powerful chakra and he is also skilled in taijutsu, genjutsu and ninjutsu.
The novel will be released on Nov. 3, 2015 and it will reportedly come with the new manga, titled "Uzumaki Naruto: Illustrations."
