The Naruto franchise has a very extensive history behind its name which spans anime spinoffs and films, as well as an vast library of video games under its belt. Originally, the anime aired from 2002 to 2007, which was followed by its sequel – Naruto Shippūden which ran from 2007 to 2017.
No news yet on a plot or focus in story, so it might be based on the manga or something more original entirely. What do you guys think?
