Abstract

This study aims to describe the content presentation process of 2.5-D musicals (theatre performances from stories of popular Japanese culture such as anime, manga, and game) of NARUTO –Akatsuki no Shirabe– (hereafter referred to as NARUTO –AnS–) from manga to on-stage performance and to understand the motivation behind its adaptation. This study is conducted through text analysis method in order to map the presentation difference from manga to on-stage theatre, and through literature study. From this study it is found that there are several adjustments in NARUTO –AnS– in order to fulfil requirements in its new medium, though in some areas still remain loyal to its adapted work. Its loyalty towards the adapted work is to fulfil requirements of the new medium; to meet its creative an economic motivations. This study reveals that in accordance to Balodis’ theory, loyalty towards the adapted work is based on two motivations, creative and economical motivation
