Naruto is one of the best and most successful manga and anime series to ever reach the world. There are multiple series and movies you can watch, and we're going to help you figure out how to watch it all.

We know that diving headfirst into a series that's been around for so many years can be daunting, especially with the number of episodes they all have.

Nonetheless, following Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi's story, as well as all the other characters, what this wonderful universe has brought to us is quite a journey.

Naruto episodes fall under several genres as they are all twined together with great craft - adventure, fantasy, and martial arts. The targeted demographic of this anime is young teenage boys, but anyone can, obviously, watch.

When Was Naruto Released?

Originally, Masashi Kishimoto wrote and illustrated two one-shot mangas in 1995 - Karakuri, and 1997 - Naruto. Starting with 1999 and through 2014, Naruto became a series.

In 2002, the manga was adapted into an anime TV series that ran through 2007 with 5 seasons. A sequel, Naruto: Shippuden, premiered in 2007 and ended in 2017 after 21 seasons. The story continues with Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. Between all these series, they've also made quite a few movies. Read - Is Boruto Worth Watching?

How to Watch Naruto in Order with Movies

The best way to watch Naruto is in the way it was meant to be watched - Chronological, mixing in the series and the movies. With close to 1,000 episodes, it's going to keep you busy for a while. We're also going to mix in the OVAs (original video animations).

While we're not going to mention these, you should also make sure to read the mangas. These series do a pretty good job at covering the original content, but it might do you well to also read these.

Naruto (2002) - 220 episodes

Naruto Shippuden (2007) - 500 episodes

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations (2017) - 215 episodes (ongoing)

How to Watch Naruto Without Fillers?

It is known that anime shows have loads of filler episodes, which are not that important to the storyline. If you wish, you can skip these and win some extra watch time, especially in Naruto Shippuden:

How Long Will It Take to Binge-Watch Naruto?

Binging on new shows you love is something that we can all understand. So, let's see how long it's going to take for you to watch all the series.

Of course, the times above do not take into account any sleeping or eating habits, and certainly no work or school times, so you'll certainly take a lot longer to watch them all. Add the movies to the list, and you're going to take even longer to binge everything.

Can You Watch Naruto on Netflix?

Yes, it's possible to watch Naruto on multiple platforms, including on Netflix. It does depend on where you live, of course, since Netflix does not have the same content everywhere it's available. Watch on Netflix now.
