Avengers: Infinity War: Is it a Naruto Shippuden copy?
The new movie from Marvel, "Avengers: Infinity War", is causing intrigue among Naruto Shippuden fans. Could it be that Marvel copied some things from this popular Japanese anime? It is ideal to review a couple of details to enter the debate.
The most shared comment in specialized anime and comics media is from Ali San on Twitter. In it, he points out that the new installment of Marvel and its characters have certain similarities with the plot of Naruto.
Avengers Infinity war is basically the War arc in Naruto Shippuden. Thanos is Madara who basically wants to collect the tailed beasts (infinity stones) in order to create a better world. He also suffered loss to attain power aka mangekyo (soul stone)

For those who do not follow Naruto, the tailed beasts are nine creatures that grant power to those who manage to control them. It is mentioned in the story that almost all wars had the sole objective of obtaining the divine power of those powerful beasts to use them in their favor.
Regarding the character Madara, when he obtained the Mangekyo (which allows the user to access great power and special techniques), he had to face a difficult test: the loss of someone close to him, such as a family member or his best friend.
Doesn't the latter remind them of Thanos killing Gamora?
We must take the word "plagiarism" with a grain of salt. It is known that Naruto exists since before the release of the recent Marvel movie; however, the comic 'Infinity War' has existed since 1992. We could say then that Naruto is plagiarism of Marvel's work.
