All The Naruto Shows And Movies In Order

Okay, let's be real. Diving into the world of Naruto can feel like being thrown into the deep end of a very, very large ramen bowl. There's so much to watch! And figuring out where to start? Forget about it.

Don't worry, I'm here to guide you. Think of me as your friendly neighborhood ninja, ready to help you navigate the Naruto-verse. So, buckle up, grab your shuriken (or popcorn), and let's do this!

The OG: Naruto (2002-2007)

First up is the classic, the one that started it all: simply titled Naruto. This is where we meet young Naruto Uzumaki, the prankster ninja with big dreams.

We see him fail his academy exams, get tricked by Mizuki (evil, I know!), and ultimately discovers he has the nine-tailed fox sealed inside of him.

It's a wild ride with lots of training and even more screaming. Honestly, gotta love it though! Right?

Movies to Watch During Naruto

Now, before you binge through the entire original series, here's where the movies fit in. Don't skip them! They add some fun, non-canon adventures.

First, there's Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow. Then, Naruto the Movie 2: Legend of the Stone of Gelel. Lastly, Naruto the Movie 3: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom. These movies are all fluff, but they're good fluff!

Naruto Shippuden (2007-2017)

Next up is Naruto Shippuden. This is where things get serious. Naruto is older, stronger, and way more determined to bring Sasuke home.

Shippuden deals with the Akatsuki, the Fourth Great Ninja War, and a whole lot of feels. Get your tissues ready; you'll need them. A LOT.

Honestly, some of the arcs feel a little dragged out (Filler, anyone?), but the payoff is worth it. Mostly.

Movies to Watch During Shippuden

Time for more movies! Again, these are generally non-canon, so don't stress too much about placement. However, watching them around the suggested episode ranges enhances the experience.

We have Naruto Shippuden the Movie, then Naruto Shippuden the Movie 2: Bonds. Following, Naruto Shippuden the Movie 3: Inheritors of the Will of Fire. After that is Naruto Shippuden the Movie 4: The Lost Tower, then Naruto Shippuden the Movie 5: Blood Prison. And finally Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie.

My unpopular opinion? Road to Ninja is secretly one of the best. Fight me.

The Epilogue: The Last: Naruto the Movie & Boruto

Before we get to Boruto, we have The Last: Naruto the Movie. This one's important! It bridges the gap between Shippuden and the next generation. Plus, it's all about Naruto and Hinata's romance! So cute.

Finally, we have Boruto: Naruto the Movie, which leads directly into the Boruto series. This movie basically sets the stage for Boruto's story.

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations (2017-Present)

And now, we arrive at Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. This series follows Naruto's son, Boruto, and the new generation of ninja.

Some people love it, some people hate it. But hey, it's more Naruto content! I say give it a shot. It has its moments.

Is it as good as the original? That's debatable. But it's definitely worth watching to see where the story goes. Plus, the animation is pretty sweet.

So there you have it! The whole Naruto saga, laid out for you. Now go forth and binge-watch! And remember, believe it!
