Naruto, You Are Loved

Happy Father's Day! To my favorite fictional dad, Minato, as well as to my real dad and all your awesome fathers out there!

Much of what hits me right in the feels when it comes to Naruto comes from the family bonds, especially Naruto's family. Even though Naruto never got to grow up with his parents, Minato and Kushina's love transcended their deaths and they became the two suns Naruto needed to suppress the darkness inside him.

I sniffled through just about every appearance Minato and Kushina made, especially the chapters revealing the truth about the day Naruto was born. That's why playing Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 and watching the Naruto Shippuden: Road to Ninja movie was like a beating to my heart, hahah.

So here's a photo from a cosplay shoot we did of Naruto's family, creating family photos that could have been if they were able to stay together </3 It was fun and sweet and a little painful. We didn't know what to do with our feelingsssss

Kat — Kushina Uzumaki
Raf — young Naruto
Jin — Minato Namikaze
