Naruto Officially Revives Jiraiya's Sage Mode In Its New Release

The Naruto anime has had its fair share of deaths and casualties over the years, but none had the impact that Jiraiya’s passing had on the series. Jiraiya was Naruto Uzuamaki’s greatest mentor, and his role in the grand scheme of things can’t be understated. Jiraiya’s sacrifice and last stand with his Sage Mode form moved us all during the Tales of Jiraiya the Gallant arc, which spanned from Volume 40 to 42 in the manga, and ended with his passing. Now, Jiraiya's Sage Mode is finally returning in the next Naruto project.
