Here’s what was revealed, and what to expect for this anime return.

The New Naruto Anime

Team 7 of Naruto

The return of the Naruto anime is nothing new. Indeed, four episodes for the anime were supposed to air back in 2023, but they were postponed, and nothing was heard about them until recently.

Now, fans have a window frame for when this beloved anime will make its return. It has been revealed that the anime will, at its latest, be released in 2025. The episodes could even be released far before the end of 2025, and all that depends on Studio Pierrot.

With Anime Japan 2025 just around the corner, scheduled for March 23-24, fans can expect new information on the Naruto anime, especially since Studio Pierrot has its own booth, where it will likely go on to reveal major information about its upcoming projects, such as Black Clover and Naruto, and Bleach. At the very least, this implies that these Naruto episodes are actively being worked on right now.

What Will The Naruto Anime Be About?

Filler for Team 7

Team 7 - Naruto All Teams

Currently, it’s unknown what this new Naruto anime will cover. One thing that is known, however, is that this anime will take place before Shippuden, when Sasuke is still a part of Team 7.

This iconic group will once again jump into action together. Fans can expect a filler-like story, but it will most likely be very fun. Fans can also expect some great animation in these 4 episodes, seeing how long it has been in production. This new anime is sure to not disappoint.

Will the Anime Only Get Four Episodes?

For Now, Just Four Episodes Are Planned

So far, only four episodes have been marked to be released for this Naruto anime. However, more may be produced if they do well, which they more than likely will do, as Naruto remains one of the most recognizable and beloved franchises out there.
