Narutois a phenomenal story written by Masashi Kishimoto, a legendary mangaka who fans all over the world adore. Originally beginning in 1999, this story went on to receive an anime adaptation very soon and gained traction among fans very quickly. Currently, even years after its conclusion,Narutois regarded as one of the best stories of all time.

Narutofollows the journey of Naruto Uzumaki, a young boy with lofty dreams and ambitions. He aims to become the Hokage,the strongest ninja in his village, by surpassing everyone who came before him and, in the process, gain acknowledgment of the people around him. By the end of the story,Naruto goes on to fulfill his dreamand he also saves the world in the process. Now, the young Uzumaki ninja looks like he is set for a return to the grand stage.
The Rise Of Naruto
TheNarutostory wrapped up in 2014 after the conclusion of the Fourth Great Ninja War. In this war, Naruto rose to unprecedented heights by not only taming Kurama but also attaining half of the power of the Sage of Six Paths. He then went on to fight against the likes of Madara Uchiha and, later, Kaguya as well. With help from his teammates, Naruto managed to seal Kaguya and save the world. After that, he went on to encounter his best friend, Sasuke Uchiha, in a fated duel that ended in his favor. Naruto ended the war and established an era of peace. Later on, he also went onto become the 7th Hokageof the village and, with that, the story of Naruto Uzumaki came to a conclusion.
Naruto also plays a significant role in the sequel series,Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. This series, however, focuses on his son, Boruto Uzumaki and is about his adventures as he makes his way through the life of ninja.Boruto, although written by the same author, is a shadow of its predecessor. The story is not nearly as gripping and has largely failed to live up to the standards thatNarutoonce set. That said, it has its moments and, for that, the fans love it, nonetheless. Now, however, it is time forNarutoto return, as has been recently announced on the officialNarutowebsite.
The Return Of Naruto
Narutois now set to return, much to the surprise of the fans. Recently, in a post on the officialNarutowebsite, it was revealed that the originalNarutoanime will return later this year to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the anime series.Narutobegan its run in 2003 and ended in 2016. Now, it is time for the show to return, although, this return looks like a short one. From what has been revealed so far, it appears that the Auto anime will have four episodes. These episodes will air in September 2023 and fans are eagerly waiting in anticipation already.

Unfortunately, the announcement did not reveal any further information about the episodes. So far, fans know nothing about what they will entail, however, given that this is the story ofNaruto, it will most certainly be set years before the events ofBoruto. Naruto is a beloved character all over the world and his group, which includes icons such asSasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and Kakashi Hatake, among many others, is loved through and through by the fans. This return of a beloved series will be welcomed with both arms by fans all over the world asBorutohas largely been hit-and-miss.
What It Could Be About
The Return ofNarutoraises the interesting question of what the episodes could be about. There are several things that the episodes could cover, all of them being extremely interesting for the fans to witness. It is entirely possible that these episodes will showNarutoat some point before the end of the 4th Great Ninja War. A good point to insert these episodes would be between part 1 and part 2 of theNarutoseries, when he was off training with Jiraiya. During these episodes, fans could see Naruto training with the Sannin as that was largely skipped in the original story.
Another interesting way these episodes could be tackled is if the story follows the events of the 4th Great Ninja War. Following this war, theNarutoanime eventually ended with his wedding to Hinata Hyuga. Fans did not get to see the period of time that followed. Naruto was an active ninja of the village and a glimpse of that was given to the fans in The Last:Naruto the Movie. This span of time has largely been kept under wraps, however, it would be incredible for the show to cover the events that followed the war. While the Shinobi world was largely at peace, that’s not to say that no threat existed during this time.The need for shinobiis always going to be there and if the plot is interesting enough, seeing Naruto, Sasuke, and other interesting shinobi tackle yet another scary threat would certainly be enjoyable for all the fans.
