Following the previous one posted last month, Shochiku has started streaming a new 15-second CM for the upcoming kabuki stage play adaptation of Masashi Kishimoto’s ninja action manga Naruto, featuring a Naruto and Sasuke illustration newly drawn by the manga author himself.
Bando Minosuke II (28) is cast as Naruto Uzumaki, alongside Hayato Nakamura (24) as Sasuke Uchiha, Ennosuke Ichikawa IV (42) and Ainosuke Kataoka VI (46) as Madara Uchiha (double cast).
The clip also introduces the play’s theme song “Tenjyou no Kanata” (Beyond the Heaven) provided by eight-member Japanese rock band Wagakki Band.
