I reckon to discuss that it has to do with packaging and marketing of a piece of work. Then again, comparing the world of Naruto and the world of Harry Potter does seem like of a similar nature but different medium.

:brushing up my reading on the first hokage too.
I'm sure Kishi makes money from any movie or products that have Naruto in them. I think Harry Potter does better in the box office, though. And I don't know about you, but I've been reading/watching Naruto and have never paid a dime for it.
