Answer: Naruto Appears in Shueisha Shounen Jump. The word Shounen literally means 'a couple years' Tau or Suzaku correct me if I'm wrong. Its used specifically to reference a child between the ages of elementary and high school, usually boys. Dragon Ball, and Dragon Ball Z were also shounen manga that featured scenes with people getting holes punched in their chest. What is graphic in the west is TAME in Nihon.
