The manga of Naruto celebrated its 25th anniversary about half a year ago. Google is also joining the celebrations and has added a new feature that appears when you search for the anime.
What is this feature? When you enter Naruto in the search on Google, you get many search results about the anime. At the bottom of the screen, you will discover an orange icon with the symbol of Konohagakure, Naruto’s home.
If you click on it, the search results start to shake, and Naruto’s shadow clones run from left to right across the screen. They wear the tracksuit that Naruto has in Shippuden.
Why can it bring the PC to its knees? Just as a self-test: press the button very quickly one after the other. What you will then see is a huge horde of Naruto shadow doppelgängers that suddenly slow down the browser.
We have performed the self-test and found that our PCs with decent hardware showed lags. Since this is already the case on PCs with good hardware, you can imagine the problems PCs with older hardware have. So don’t overdo it if your PC is as old as the Naruto manga itself.
Here you can watch a trailer for a Naruto movie:
The most famous anime ninja celebrates his birthday at Google
What is this technique? The shadow doppelgängers are the first strong technique that Naruto learns. The ninja summons them by performing the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
.
They differ from simple doppelgängers because they are real beings and can act independently. When they dissolve or disappear, they transfer all collected information back to the original.
Why is this action happening? 25 years have passed since the first chapter of the manga was published on September 21, 1999. To celebrate this milestone, there is an Easter egg on Google.
Moreover, Naruto is the most searched anime of the last 25 years, as GamePro reports. Since its release, it has been searched more often than other animes like One Piece or Dragon Ball. Therefore, Google and Naruto have a long-standing search friendship.
In the anime itself, there is a familiarity between Naruto’s two closest confidants that requires no words. The two characters have not exchanged a single word with each other in the entire anime before the time jump: Two characters in Naruto have known each other for ages but have not spoken a single word to each other in 220 episodes
