Hiroshi Matsuyama was interviewed by "SuperSoluce" at the Paris Manga & Sci-Fi Show 2012 and was asked why he didn't chose motion capture for the game's animations, but instead chose to animate by hand. He commented:
"We appreciate motion capture technology, but it does not always reproduce what we want. This is the same for Naruto: when you utilize animated sequences that require a superhuman flexibility, you can not use motion capture. For Asura's Wrath we have sought people who had six arms, but have not had any success. You understand that we had to find something else to transcribe most of these animations."
