Naruto in Baryon Mode and Ichi from Ichi the Witch with Kurama standing in the background

Like many manga in and out of Shōnen Jump, the new fantasy manga Ichi the Witch has some notable overlap with Naruto. Both stories feature dimwitted protagonists abandoned by their families who are initially unable to use the superpowers of their respective settings properly, although compared to Naruto’s relationship with ninjutsu, it’s much less of a problem for Ichi thanks to his other skills and his general ignorance of magic.

Ichi The Witch Makes A Joke Out Of Naruto’s Most Iconic Dynamic A New Twist On A Classic Manga Dynamic Close Ichi the Witch chapter #2 revealed that King Uroro didn’t disappear after Ichi defeated him, as he now lives inside Ichi and can manifest as a blob-like mass growing from his body. There’s a clear parallel to Naruto and Kurama’s dynamic, especially with both Kurama and Uroro being antagonistic toward their hosts.

Something also different between is how the protagonists’ actions affect the monsters sealed inside them. While Kurama was mostly indifferent to what Naruto did, Uroro is constantly annoyed with Ichi’s impulsiveness and how he can’t stop him from hunting other Majiks, something Uroro draws the line at, and his protests are always played for laughs whenever they pop up.

Shōnen Jump’s New Fantasy Series Can Completely Change A Classic Naruto Arc One problem with Naruto and Kurama’s dynamic is that Naruto didn’t spend a lot of time with it and never truly developed it until the final arc, but since Uroro will likely be a more constant presence, Ichi and Uroro’s dynamic can be fleshed out far more than Naruto and Kurama’s was, and that can make it far more engaging because of that.
