With the new arc of Naruto anime starting, I’ve begun watching it again. The last 100 episodes or so of the original arc were just fillers which I decided to skip as it’s not really based on anything worth watching, just random storylines they decided to add while they decide how begin the next arc. The new arc is called 疾風伝 (Shippuuden or Hurricane Chronicles) and it’s started out with a bang! The story takes place about 3 years later and the characters have grown up and have become more mature. Of course they have new skills and they’ll be introducing the new bad guys from 暁 (akatsuki which means dawn).
Anyway, I really like the opening song and sequence and decided to share it:
Large version:
Small Version:
The song is called: Hero’s Come Back!! by nobodyknows+
While I was looking for the band’s name, I found this video: Naruto iPod. It’s using the same scheme with silhouettes, but the characters in there are Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura. However, Naruto’s hair seems a big funky when it’s not spiky. The others are pretty good 3d cg models.
Lyrics (from 自分流でイコウ！！ ヽ(^Д^*)/おひさ～♪ 新曲nobodyknows+♪ and Naruto · Stage6):
