With more than 250 million copies sold, NARUTO by Masashi Kishimoto is a globally beloved shonen manga that ran from 1999 to 2014, following Naruto Uzumaki’s journey in pursuing his dreams of being Hokage. Its anime adaptation, including Naruto Shippuden (2007–2017), has captivated audiences worldwide, spawning films, games, merchandise, and even Kabuki performances. To create NARUTO The Symphonic Experience, producer Julien Vallespi meticulously selected the most iconic moments from over 70 hours of the anime, ensuring seamless synchronization between the live orchestra and on-screen action for an unforgettable experience. “This symphonic rock concert honors the legacy of Kishimoto’s anime and Masuda’s acclaimed compositions,” says Vallespi.
