It’s the end of an era. The final episode of the Naruto-starring TV anime will be aired on March 23, bringing to a close a highly successful series.

The first Naruto TV series debuted back in October 2002 and ran to 2007. That same year, the current series Naruto Shippuden kicked off.
Now, 14 and a half years later, the finale will be shown. As IT Media and the show’s Twitter account point out, the Naruto TV anime is coming to a close with this last Shippuden broadcast.
The manga ended its 15 year run back in 2014, so unless Naruto gets revived, we’ll have to be content with the Boruto spin-off, which gets its TV anime debut this autumn.

The last Naruto Shippuuden episode. Boruto starts April 3rd, and you’re kidding yourself if you don’t consider that to be a Naruto continuation.
Lalalala not listening. I enjoyed my time with Naruto but I’m done!
Half of the ep. will be filler
This guy, right here.
Best laugh I’ve had in while. Bravo.
…as a flashback…
Which then turns out to be a genjetsu (spelling?) and is completely irrelevant.
Got some catching up to do. Was enjoying it for a long time but those fillers… just couldn’t be bothered anymore.
Look for Naruto Kai. It’s a fan project that removes all the filler. The episodes are usually around 1 and a half hours to 2 hours and each one covers a volume of the manga.
Thanks! I actually found a website that lists only main story episodes and was just going to download them, but this sounds very interesting indeed.
Could have sworn this already ended two years ago or something?
Also his kid is named Bort as far as I’m concerned.
Manga finished years ago but since they continue to produce 2 filler episodes for every half an episode of actual source material the anime has kept going.
Presumably so they can let Bort get ahead far enough that they can rinse and repeat the process with it as well.
The last 5 or so episodes are adapting the gaiden light novels, the last ep is Naruto and Hinata’s wedding.
I’m actually really excited for the Boruto show. The movie was amazing.
