NARUTO & BORUTO Shinobi-Zato, a popular attraction at the anime park Nijigen no Mori on Awaji Island, is holding the "Winter Homecoming Festival" as a thank-you to its fans, for whom Shinobi-Zato remains a "home of the heart." The first installment, "Part 1: Special Mission Revival Festival," lets visitors vote on which past "Special Missions" will return.
Until now, Shinobi-Zato has run Special Missions, puzzle-solving games with original stories based on the characters and stories of "Naruto" and "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations," through the 27th installment. For this event, candidates have been selected from them under three themes: "Team Assignments," "Family," and "Bonds of the Hidden Leaf Village." From Friday, November 6 to Monday, November 30, visitors to Shinobi-Zato can cast their votes, and the Special Mission that collects the most votes in each theme will be revived for a limited time, one mission per theme.
Organizers are inviting fans who think "I want to take on that mission one more time!" or "I couldn't take part back then, but this time I will!" to join the vote.
