SAME! I got so shocked! I watched his tiktoks for a while before I saw a comment and realised that HE IS THE ONE WHO SANG ONE OF MY MOST FAVOURITE NARUTO OPENINGS OF ALL TIME 😭🔥
My son got me to watch Naruto and this by far is my fave song. For some reason it makes me tear up every time! As a 40 something year old mom I can say I loved Naruto!
As an Earthling im glad i discovered this song was you all along. When I saw that your name was Inoue Joe i rushed to this song. I'll always remember this one. Thanks Joe, for this and your Japan-knees.
Bro i just came back from watching your Japanese tutorials on Facebook. I WOULD'VE NEVER IMAGINED that the same person was responsible for creating this MASTERPIECE. Love the tutorials, getting major Sora The Troll vibes, please do continue making the tutorials.
Shikamaru has always been a fave of mine, but this story arc made him even more of a favourite. I cried when Asuma died and I cried when Shikamaru's father told him to let it out. Half of this arc was me crying honestly. I cried even more than with Gaara & Chiyo. It was agonising to watch him in so much pain for losing someone who was so close to him, someone who was as close as family to him. He was Asuma's treasured pupil who had to see his teacher's death right in front of him. Rest in peace Asuma, your students are doing your name proudly.
Mine's 1. Sign 2. Closer 3. Diver Honourable mention : Niwaka ame ni mo (4th place basically) Edit: I went through the Shippuden openings again, and I must say, Diver is my new no. 3.
Damn, this sound really make me cry now, remember of my father, he was a huge fan of naruto, this is for me the last opening he see before he go for the another world, rest in peace my father.
This still hits me. Naruto was literally the anime that changed the way I look at the world. Thank you quarantine, for making me fall in love with anime and Naruto.
***** Oh so that's why so many Asians have difficulty with the English tongue. Jackie Chan has been working with Americans for years and yet his fluency isn't all that great. I was talking about his pronunciations, Joe's are perfectly spot on. It's because of where he lives, not his parents.
Shikamaru: "Shouji, these are the last words from Asuma Sensei, Listen Carefully"... This song reminds me of this extremely sad moment and it's nearly impossible to hold the tears listening to this song 😢
This song tells about something that is closest to us. Based on the lyrics, it can be seen that this song conveys that the closer you are to your loved ones, the more difficult it is to see them. In this world there are many things that can happen. You can find people you can really trust, but there are also people who are hypocrites.
Asuma's last words... "Shikamaru... come here..." "What is it?" "You'll be an excellent shinobi, I know it." "But most importantly..." *cough* "DON'T FORGET THAT KURENAI TIRED TO USE GENJUTSU ON ITACHI" *dies*
X3 ikr? Lol, I'm still slightly disappointed though. I heard this song and loved it so much. I thought it was perfect for a Naruto fanfiction theme for me to write, I look it up on youtube and Naruto already used it. :P :3
eric larikin pch, market? I write and make rp quizzes for my own amusement, and for the purpose of making people happy, I don't mind the market much, I'm happy with my own world :3

I appreciate the effort into making the english lyrics genuine. Many J bands just skirt by using katakana, but this man respected the language. Not many who put in that effort.
Because he already has the foundation of speaking english, duh. Many japanese artists's english foundation is from what they learned in school. Japanese schools teach that kind of english. The ones with english that actually sound like english are usually either returnee or went on in-depth study for it. The example is Joe inoue, or Yoasobi's vocalist, or many other returnees who go for singing career and make their own lyrics.
so true I am learning that with rpg maker its actually not easy to make games. The farther I get in my project the farther away I feel I am from finishing it :L.
I mean it should show that he’s half-japanese too, but he’s not according to google. He just learned it by watching anime and reading manga (weeaboo I guess) but the way he speaks is so fluent and his face is so japanese too. At first I thought he was a japanese that live in america, but turns out it’s the same way round
Lοrd SushiΨ okay well he was born in America making him American. But his parents are Japanese and thus he learned Japanese growing up most likely. Just how some Americans with Mexican or Latin parents teach them Spanish growing up.
you see the comedy in this post comes from how he exquisitely put a twist on the typical "hotel? trivago" by instead using his advanced level of comedy to cange it to make it relevant and instead stated "hotel? Joe Inoue which is humerous as Joe Inoue is the artist responsible for this music sorry had to
@@meekotheotter2801 I imagined you sitting in an armchair with a bourbon and cigar explaining this in a calm voice, slowly twirling the cup as some soft jazz plays in the background. Which is hilarious for an otter to do.
I'm surprised you were even able to make out that part, I never was so I looked in the comments and sure enough found it. They did a bad job on that part, everything else is great though.
+WarriorWolfeh and of course he speak other languages then just japanese n english. xD to be much more closer to those non-english/japanese fans as well.
+WarriorWolfeh It's obvious that he speaks fluent English, it is his native language after all. He was born and raised in LA - California... He also is in Brazil all the time he's not working in Japan... he speaks fluent Portuguese and have 2 UA-cam channels that he uses just to talk to his brazilian fans (in Portuguese, of course). He even have a few song in Portuguese. I guess he can also speak Norwegian...
Bro, this song brings so many memories! from homeless sleeping in my car at 18, I remember the nights getting off work, getting some food and watching my naruto until I felt a sleep lol I don't wanna sound cheesy but this anime and songs always lifted me up.
Just a reminder for those who are not aware. Inoue performs every instrument on his recordings in addition to writing and composing the pieces on his own.
Yea, the system where you create something entirely yourself does not exist in this world :). Everyone depends on its environment. That also counts for IP. Never take that for granted. But he played the king, so thats something
An American otaku, who learned Japanese through anime and manga, and was signed with a to a Japanese record label, and had ones of his songs chosen as an intro for a popular anime. Sounds like a dream come true. Must be a good feeling.
lol he is half-japanese. he didnt learn japanese from anime and manga! you can say he is native speaker. forget your dream if you think you can speak japanese just by watching anime.
To be fair, he truly claims he learned Japanese from anime and manga His native language is English, but considering he was born to japanese parents, I have a hard time believing anime and manga were the only sources where he acquired the ability to speak the language His parents likely spoke Japanese at home
I was 14 when i saw this mv for the first time and i looked this dude was so mature on that moment.. then i re-watch it again on my 28th years and realize how old i am now.
Just watched Episode 80 of Naruto Shippuden, and oh boy, how long I've anticipated this opening. Air guitar-ed, air bass guitar-ed, even drummed to the beat and sung my heart out! but yeah. Shikamaru Shipuden and RIP Asuma Sarutobi ...

Joe Inoe while making a music video: Shadow clone jutsu!!
You got a point there. That might be a little of the reason to choose it as a naruto opening
Aaditya Ganguly lol
Best comment
No one:
Dumb human beings making bad 'no one' jokes 7 years too late
Kage bunshin no jutsu
This arc made Shikamaru one of my favorite characters. Hidan too, I loved the whole Shikamaru, Asuma, Kakashi and Naruto vs. Hidan and Kakuzu arc.
This was the time when Naruto learned Wind Release: Rasengan.
Shikamaru is the best
Shikamaru has always been a fave of mine, but this story arc made him even more of a favourite. I cried when Asuma died and I cried when Shikamaru's father told him to let it out.

That big 3 for energetic song and Blue bird, kanashimiwo yasashisani, Karana Kokoro for peace🎵
still the best opening to this day
Nice to see you here!
@Gabriel Mejia-Wick One of the best
Opening 13 my dudes
no
Opening 16 is the best
"I do not seek any reward, for I have already acquired the gift in my heart" This line has no business being that hard
Damn, this sound really make me cry now, remember of my father, he was a huge fan of naruto, this is for me the last opening he see before he go for the another world, rest in peace my father.

His mixed skills of fluent Japanese and English is fucking amazing.
He's American, born to Japanese parents, which definitely explains it.
***** Oh so that's why so many Asians have difficulty with the English tongue.
Jackie Chan has been working with Americans for years and yet his fluency isn't all that great. I was talking about his pronunciations, Joe's are perfectly spot on. It's because of where he lives, not his parents.
NEO Nate as much as I know, he teached himself japanese through mangas
Yousuf Farhan not for japanese people they really have a hard time speaking english
The Terminator It's because they confuse L and R. They don't have an R sound like English does. Their R sounds like a mixture of L and D
Shikamaru: "Shouji, these are the last words from Asuma Sensei, Listen Carefully"...
This song reminds me of this extremely sad moment and it's nearly impossible to hold the tears listening to this song 😢
Hello my earthlings
This song tells about something that is closest to us. Based on the lyrics, it can be seen that this song conveys that the closer you are to your loved ones, the more difficult it is to see them.
In this world there are many things that can happen. You can find people you can really trust, but there are also people who are hypocrites.
when asuma was about to die, he told shikamaru
"if you ever feel dumb, remember kurenai tried to use genjutsu on itachi"
F
😂😂😂😂
Omg 😂😂😂
I was laughing and crying at the same time 😭🤣
NOHHHH I JUST REMEMBERED THAT 😂
Asuma's last words...
"Shikamaru... come here..."
"What is it?"
"You'll be an excellent shinobi, I know it."
"But most importantly..."
*cough*
"DON'T FORGET THAT KURENAI TIRED TO USE GENJUTSU ON ITACHI"

As a fan of Naruto who also loves music, I wanna say that Japan's music can't be underestimated.

It is insanely good im obsessed with japanese music tbh i may not understand it but still i find it leagues abovr most of the modern pop in America

So you are the young warrior who saved the world?
Yes your highness.
You will be rewarded for your bravery.
What is it that you want? Gold? Silver?
No your highness.
Is it land?
No sir.
Well, what is it then?
I don't seek a reward for I have already acquired a gift in my heart.
@@Ciclify thank you :)
damn, this was really for shikamaru.
I don't seek anything for I have already acquired a gift within my heart.
WELCOME EARTHLINGS!!
I appreciate the effort into making the english lyrics genuine. Many J bands just skirt by using katakana, but this man respected the language. Not many who put in that effort.
Because he already has the foundation of speaking english, duh. Many japanese artists's english foundation is from what they learned in school. Japanese schools teach that kind of english. The ones with english that actually sound like english are usually either returnee or went on in-depth study for it. The example is Joe inoue, or Yoasobi's vocalist, or many other returnees who go for singing career and make their own lyrics.
2019? R.I.P. Sarutobi Asuma sensei 😭
Sad
R.I.P Jiraya sensei
@@perrinbenjamin8535 jiraiya ?
F For Asuma
@@perrinbenjamin8535 RIP to Jiraiya but this opening was under when Asuma died
I LOVE THIS SONG!!!
one of my favorite openings ever!
Let's see how many people are listening to this song in january 2021.
Me for sure
Me I just got to this episode
Right here!
omg your a hero i watched narutp since i was ten then i felt like listening
Me
"You know the closer you get to something, the tougher is to see it" oh my that's the most powerful line i've heard in a while
IKR
Theres a saying: the biggest dark is under the lamp
that also applies literally
so true I am learning that with rpg maker its actually not easy to make games. The farther I get in my project the farther away I feel I am from finishing it :L.
あらゆる種類のCLOSER を何回も聴いている。
最高です！！！
Everytime i hear this song..I will always remember of Asuma sensei...Best music
I think of Kakuzu and Hidaaaaan :C
+Deepest Cut same since they are in the scenes
same...
+The Cakeslayer true...
Me too ;(
I like how he’s not even from Japan but keeps in touch with his roots to sing. Joe Inoue is American and so cool!
robokiwi yea i thought he's japanese, and after search his name in google and wtf? He's american. I'm totally shocked😯
Sorry for my bad english
But maybe he is half japanese and american because the shape of his head is totally different from americans head
Flicker that doesn’t make sense I’m sticking to your first comment
I mean it should show that he’s half-japanese too, but he’s not according to google. He just learned it by watching anime and reading manga (weeaboo I guess) but the way he speaks is so fluent and his face is so japanese too. At first I thought he was a japanese that live in america, but turns out it’s the same way round
Lοrd SushiΨ okay well he was born in America making him American. But his parents are Japanese and thus he learned Japanese growing up most likely. Just how some Americans with Mexican or Latin parents teach them Spanish growing up.
ありがとうございます。😢
One of the most satisfying revenges in anime history. Shikamaru rules!
O Yeah
Know what else makes me happy? Seeing recent comments in this video.
samee :D
Yosh
Meese
you speak the truth
Music: Joe Inoue
Special effects: Joe Inoue
Band: Joe Inoue
Characters: Joe Inoue
Hotel? Joe Inoue
lmaoooooooo im dying
@patrimoniodp Damn it !!! you beat me to it
you see the comedy in this post comes from how he exquisitely put a twist on the typical "hotel? trivago" by instead using his advanced level of comedy to cange it to make it relevant and instead stated "hotel? Joe Inoue
which is humerous as Joe Inoue is the artist responsible for this music
sorry had to
@@meekotheotter2801 I imagined you sitting in an armchair with a bourbon and cigar explaining this in a calm voice, slowly twirling the cup as some soft jazz plays in the background. Which is hilarious for an otter to do.
😂😂😂😂👍
Fav op💛🌟
この曲は本当に中毒性があります。 ✌✌
``I don't seek any reward...for I have already acquired a gift in my heart ``. Most inspirational words I've ever heard.
TRUE!
agree
I'm surprised you were even able to make out that part, I never was so I looked in the comments and sure enough found it. They did a bad job on that part, everything else is great though.
何もいりません。大切なものは、心の中にあります。Which roughly translates to what you said.
@@chenoarias1109 はい
Just found this guys Facebook and he's hilarious, speaks fluent English and I now remember he sung one of my favourite Naruto openings!
same XD
+WarriorWolfeh and of course he speak other languages then just japanese n english. xD to be much more closer to those non-english/japanese fans as well.
+WarriorWolfeh It's obvious that he speaks fluent English, it is his native language after all. He was born and raised in LA - California...
He also is in Brazil all the time he's not working in Japan... he speaks fluent Portuguese and have 2 UA-cam channels that he uses just to talk to his brazilian fans (in Portuguese, of course). He even have a few song in Portuguese. I guess he can also speak Norwegian...
+Leandro Ribeiro canal br? como é o nome?
He's polyglot man
Bro, this song brings so many memories! from homeless sleeping in my car at 18, I remember the nights getting off work, getting some food and watching my naruto until I felt a sleep lol I don't wanna sound cheesy but this anime and songs always lifted me up.
Same!
not cheesy at all, a lot of people can agree with you
You dont sound cheesy my man not to offend you but you have no clue how many people it lift up for many many times and still is prolly ❤
The closer you get to something, the tougher it is to see it and I'll never take it for granted!!!
“Don’t ever forget we were team 10.”
10 likes lol
The Variety Games like I care
Charles Michiru Gallo cringe
@Charles Michiru Gallo no
Just a reminder for those who are not aware. Inoue performs every instrument on his recordings in addition to writing and composing the pieces on his own.
yeah hes really talented! can you please tell me what he says when the king asks him what he wants?
"I don't seek a reward for i have already acquired a gift in my heart"
He also plays every role! If you look closely and remove the mustache, even the king!
Yea, the system where you create something entirely yourself does not exist in this world :). Everyone depends on its environment. That also counts for IP. Never take that for granted. But he played the king, so thats something
Loving this song 🎶😎
After 3 years! I'm back here!😃 Not really I always come back for this awesome song! The Best Naruto Song Ever!
Shikamaru Shippuden!!!!
Asuma 😢😢😢😭😭😭
Asumaaaaaaaaaaa😓🙇😫😭😭😭😭😭😭
how do you do emojis on this comment crap
@E.K. Jr. Prime (Ekjr.deviantart.com) what would you rather him do
😭😭
Asuma he deserves a unique grave then what he’s got
An American otaku, who learned Japanese through anime and manga, and was signed with a to a Japanese record label, and had ones of his songs chosen as an intro for a popular anime. Sounds like a dream come true. Must be a good feeling.
lol he is half-japanese. he didnt learn japanese from anime and manga! you can say he is native speaker. forget your dream if you think you can speak japanese just by watching anime.
he is japanese bruh.just borned in usa
Iruzen Space so by your logic all whites are Europeans born in the states.
To be fair, he truly claims he learned Japanese from anime and manga
His native language is English, but considering he was born to japanese parents, I have a hard time believing anime and manga were the only sources where he acquired the ability to speak the language
His parents likely spoke Japanese at home
yes
Ain't no way sensei joe made this 🥲👌🔥🔥
For some people that didn't know: Joe has an own youtube channel and he is AWESOME AS HELL
and he disable the comment section
Does he? I've never payed attention but I'm almost certain he doesn't o-o
+a Fish Why does he do that?
UA-cam does it too him for whatever reason
Narumitsu Uchiha yes, I came to know all about him bcuz of Naruto...my life is all about Naruto..it's just better than other anime's
welcome to 2017, still watch this 😉

I was 14 when i saw this mv for the first time and i looked this dude was so mature on that moment.. then i re-watch it again on my 28th years and realize how old i am now.
You already know why I'm here. R.I.P Asuma Sensei🙏😔
A few sacrifices had to be made to make the series awesome and memorable....
Stfu
Just watched Episode 80 of Naruto Shippuden, and oh boy, how long I've anticipated this opening. Air guitar-ed, air bass guitar-ed, even drummed to the beat and sung my heart out! but yeah. Shikamaru Shipuden and RIP Asuma Sarutobi ...
