Naruto: Shippuden, which airs every Thursday at 19:00 on TV Tokyo, is an anime that is hugely popular with both kids and adults. Following the Japanese broadcast, the show is distributed online in the U.S., China, and many other countries. It is one of Japan’s representative anime.
A charm of the show are the unique characters like main character Naruto and his friend and rival Sasuke. In particular, Kakashi, the sensei of Naruto and the others, is outrageously popular. Beginning on Feb. 6, the "Kakashi ANBU Arc: The Shinobi Who Lives in Darkness” will begin broadcasting. This arc will depict Kakashi’s time as a member of the ANBU Black Ops.
Just in time for this is a quiz all about Kakashi that is being put on by TV Tokyo. The “Naruto Shippu Kentei Kakashi Edition” will begin on Jan. 23 and will be available on computers and smartphones. The questions will change each week until March 20. Because it will be uploaded after the end of the anime broadcast, fans will be able to enjoy it along with the excitement of the TV anime.
“The Naruto Shippu Kentei” was also carried out in the summer of 2013 and more than 250,000 people participated. The project gained a huge reputation. Due to the quiz focusing this time on one character, Kakashi, fans can enjoy a slightly different experience.
The quiz this time will be held over a period of seven weeks. Once the questions for that week have been posted, participants will have until 24:00 on Wednesday of the following week to answer them on their computer or smartphone. By answering the questions, fans can obtain their score for that week. The questions will begin with the red test and end with the purple test. The degree of difficulty of the questions will also rise as the weeks pass. Each week, one of the questions will be asked during that week’s broadcast, one during the “Naruzaka 46” segment of the show, and the remaining will be posted online. Watching the show each week is the secret to scoring big.
Finally, the scores from the 30 questions will be tallied and one fan from those who rank in the top 20% will be chosen to receive an original Naruto: Shippuden Kakashi illustration. This is a very special item drawn by Hirobumi Suzuki, the character designer of Naruto: Shippuden. Furthermore, those who answer every question right will receive a commemorative certificate. Everyone who participates will also receive a wallpaper. It’s a project that is fully loaded with fun.
