Naruto, tom 39: W drogę

This volume really amps up the stakes while keeping some surprises. I wonder what influenced the pacing decisions for these key moments.

His growth feels so genuine, but I was surprised by how much I connected with his struggles. Did others find themselves rooting for him even more here?

The dynamics between the characters really shifted, and I’m curious whether these relationships were planned from the start or evolved during the writing process.
