Here you will find a run down of today's anime and manga news! If anything sent waves through the anime and manga world today, you'll find it in this post! By the way, I'm saladesu, one of the translators and global moderators of MH, and I'll be posting a post like this every day (as much as possible, anyway). Look forward to them ;)




The North American anime distributor Viz Media announced on its Twitter account and 25th anniversary website that Naruto Shippūden the Movie: Bonds (Naruto Shippūden: Kizuna) will have its American premiere in October. In particular, Viz Media is holding a Heroes of Anime Sweepstakes where the winner and a guest will be flown to a premiere screening in New York City.

In the story, a mysterious group of ninjas makes a surprise attack on the Konohagakure, which takes great damage. The nightmare of another Shinobi World War could become a reality.

The film opened in Japan in August of 2008. It is the fifth Naruto film and the second Naruto Shippūden film.
