Masashi Kishimoto (岸本斉史 Kishimoto Masashi, born November 8, 1974) is the author of the famous manga Naruto. He debuted as a mangaka (cartoonist in Japanese) with his work Karakuri, which was submitted to Shueisha in 1996. Beginning with 1999, his next work Naruto was serialized in the Weekly Shonen Jump manga magazine. Kishimoto had received the Hop Step Award, which was an award given to new artists once a month by Shonen Jump.
His twin brother Seishi Kishimoto is also a mangaka and the creator of Satan 666. Their art has been remarked as being very similar and accused of plagarising the other. However, Seishi notes in one of the volumes of his manga that the similaries are not intentional and that the occurance would have been likely because they have been influenced by many of the same things.
