Hi I'm just watching Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters episode 80 and there is a card named Ninja Master Shogun. And it looks like Jiraiya... the appearance, the background music, even a pose is the same like Jiraiya. So I was thinking, if there is some possibility that Kishimoto was inspired by this Ninja? DM Ninja was aired 2001 and Jiraiya first appeared in 2003. I'm just curious.
