Naruto, Vol. 45: Battlefield, Konoha

The action sequences felt so high-stakes and quick-moving, I wonder if that was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The character’s growth really shined in this volume, especially Naruto’s decisions. I’d love to hear if others felt the same or saw different layers.

The detailed world-building really brought the scene to life. I’m curious whether the author visualized it all beforehand or developed it as the story progressed.
