“15 years of going to national and international events to find a figure of Mr. Kakashi.”
(Auto-translated from Japanese)
My Story
When I was in the sixth grade, I saw the scene where Naruto and his friends formed the 7th group and Kakashi-sensei first appeared, and I had a gut feeling that I would follow this character for the rest of my life. I had no proof, but it really happened. When I was in junior high school, I saw the past version of Kakashi-sensei and became aware for the first time of the weight of what adults have to deal with. Even as a child, I felt that "adults are so complicated," and since then I got into the habit of watching the characters with a higher resolution. Without Kakashi-sensei, I don't think I would still be looking at the characters in the story with such deep thought. I now have eight cardboard boxes of Kakashi-related goods. My favorite is an acrylic stand commemorating the 20th anniversary of the anime. I have been going to domestic and international events to look for it for 15 years, and it has already become a part of my life in itself.
Favorite scene / line
The scene where Dr. Kakashi stands in front of Obito and Rin's graves. There is almost no dialogue there. It is my favorite "silent scene" in Naruto.
Stories I'd love to see
I would like to see a story about the time when Kakashi was the 6th Hokage. How he ruled his village and what decisions he had to make. He seems aloof and has a stronger sense of responsibility than anyone else, so I would like to see just 30 minutes of Kakashi during his time as the Hokage.
