In a story that will shock the world, staff members from the studio that created the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ninja Gaiden series prefer a manga about ninja to a manga about pirates. Truly this is the debate that ܫshall never cease.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:One Piece is one of the largest comic book properties the world has ever seen, rivalling titans like Batman and Superman, and for a long time, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Naruto was considered to be the only true rival. The friendly rivalry between the two franchises has burned just as white-hot as the ancient Pirates VS Ninja debate has on old gaming forums, and now we have a man from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Team Ninja chꦏiming in with his opinion - though the answer shouldn’t surprise 📖you.

We recently spoke with Nioh franchise director Fumihiko Yasuda, and while the interview was primarily about Nioh 2’s upcoming PC release, we just had to ask about his manga preferences, and after having a chuckle at how this question came from left-field, Yasuda-san admitted his preference lies with Naruto. And I, a One Piece fan,꧙ 𓆏shall not judge him for it. This time.

But that’s not all, Yasuda-san expressed that the voice actor for Naruto’s Kakashi, Kazuhiko Inoue, also voices Oda Nobunaga in Nioh 2, so perhaps his loyalt꧑ies lay deeper than at first glance. Yasuda-san told us this:

“[T]here ar💃e also voice actors from Naruto that take on roles in Nioh as well. ♑In Nioh 2 specifically, Naruto's Kakashi [Japanese VA Kazuhiko Inoue] also performs the voice of Oda Nobunaga.”

This is far from the only fascinating tidbit that Yasuda-san revealed to us during our interview, and you can find all of the details, including how video game difficulty is akin to spicy food, in our full interview transcription here.

Nioh 2 on PC and the Nioh Collection both launch on February 5 and offer a steep challenge, with a huge amount of reward. You can find out more about Nioh 2 in our review of the PS4 version of the game.
