You may peruse at length this new section about the behind-the-scenes creative steps that are taken before NARUTO is brought to maturation.
p.342
<>Uzumaki Naruto
-The headband portion of the forehead protector is broader, and it's possible to see it moving.
-The base of the neck stands out, and the amount of skin shown has been decreased, for a maturer look.
-The straps attached to the shoulder spiral [tn: in Japanese, it's "uzumaki"] have been shortened.
-It's usually hidden, but if you roll up the sleeves, you'll find a ninja garb underneath.
p.343
<>Haruno Sakura
-To combine ease of movement with feminine looks, she's been given short hair, and her outfit likened to a karate uniform.
-Her costume has been designed in regards with close combat in mind, to underline her importance as a military asset.
<>Uchiha Sasuke
-The initial design was a casual-looking uniform.
-I've mixed the old garb and Orochimaru's ropes into some kind of outfit for cold weather.
-The gloved hands extend out of the sleeves.
-I sought to make the adult Sasuke an alluring figure.
p.344
<>Sai
-I drew him with a sickly-faced, model student image in mind.
-Keeping the balance along with the left-right asymmetry was quite the challenge.
-The final touches are being brought to Sai's gloves and his characteristic weapon, the Bunchintou (Paperweight Blade).
<>Nara Shikamaru
-He bears the ear-piercing Asuma gave him on his left.
-An orthodox Chuunin in style, but the forehead protector on his arm asserts his personality.
p.345
<>Inuzuka Kiba
-Kiba is a Ninja Dog rider now, and he's been given a leather jacket to stave off the cold.
<>Akimichi Chouji
-He's inherited the "Shoku" (Food) one-piece armor from his father Chouza.
<>Aburame Shino
-If you put down the hood, you can see the forehead protector on his head.
-His layered clothing leaves practically no opening. He carries a backpack full of insects...!!
p.346
<>Tenten
-Her giant weapon summoning scroll she carries everywhere.
-What she looks like from behind without the scroll. She has scroll clinches on her hips.
- Her pants are based on a Chinese outfit. The tightened cuffs are characteristic.
<>Akamaru
-Akamaru is the one who's matured the most, in a sense. You can tell how big he is comparatively with Kiba.
p.347
<>Yamanaka Ino
-Her hairstyle has been changed. She's become more womanly.
-Ino's outfit has been made even more revealing, thus finalizing it.
<>Hyuuga Hinata <3
-I took a sweatshirt and sweatpants as a basis, to give out that "cute but uncool" feeling.
p.348
<>Pain
-Pain's angered expression is something that hasn't appeared an awful lot in-story. I've been making quite a lot of sketches at this stage.
-From the ears to the mouth... his entire body is covered in piercings.
<>Hidan
-The Angel of Death who's dedicated himself to Jashin. His design among my favorites.
-The scythe had plenty of tricks, such as the possibility to expand or to be disassembled...
p.349
<>Konan
-She has a pierced navel... She bears her forehead protector on her right hip.
-There's a sexy body under that Akatsuki gear. [tn: Agreed!] Will that ever show up in-story?!
<>Zetsu
-Zetsu's design was pretty much determined at first try.
p.350
<>Sanbi
-Sanbi's image is that of a turtle and a lobster mixed into one gigantic animal.
-A bit of human has been thrown into a mix. The single, left eye makes for an uncanny feeling.
<>Nibi
-Nibi was designed after the Nekomata, as they call it. [tn: Legendary cat spirit associated with the dead.] The early version is still lovely. Kinda.
