How do they know what to colour what in the anime?

[Ganesh]

ok seeing as the manga is all in black and white, how does the anime team know what colour to choose for particular clothes or hair etc. of characters.. do they ask kishimoto masashi what colour he would like? or what?

anyone know the correct answer?

If you look at the anime they usually have colored shots... (in the front and junk) plus, I'm sure they'd talk to the creator alot about how certain things should do what.

ok thanks.

[Rek]

no prob man...

yeah, covers are colored, sometimes kishimoto would have spread pages of most of the characters in color too, and then there's always the occasional colored page as well

Well, one may assume that there is some sort of communication between Kishimoto and the people who make the anime... Like, if they want to make a filler or something, they most likely will have to make it so it won't be far from the manga...and, huh, I don't think it's exactly a great deal of trouble for the anime people simply *ask* Kishimoto about that sort of thing...
