It tells the story of Naruto Uzumaki, an adolescent ninja who searches for recognition from his peers and the village and also dreams of becoming the Hokage, the leader of his village. The story is in two parts, the first set in Naruto 's pre-teen years, and the second in his teens. The series is based on two one - shot manga by Kishimoto : Karakuri ( 1995 ), which earned Kishimoto an honorable mention in Shueisha 's monthly Hop Step Award the following year, and Naruto ( 1997 ). Naruto was serialized in Shueisha 's magazine, Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1999 to 2014, and released in tankōbon ( book ) form in 72 volumes. The manga was adapted into an anime television series produced by Studio Pierrot and Aniplex, which broadcast 220 episodes in Japan from 2002 to 2007 ; the English adaptation of the series aired on Cartoon Network from 2005 to 2009. Naruto : Shippuden, a sequel to the original series, premiered in Japan in 2007, and ended in 2017, after 500 episodes. The English adaptation was broadcast on Disney XD from 2009 to 2011, and then switched to Adult Swim 's Toonami block in January 2014. Besides the anime series, Studio Pierrot has developed eleven movies and eleven original video animations ( OVAs ). Other Naruto - related merchandise includes light novels, video games, and trading cards developed by several companies. Viz Media licensed the manga and anime for North American production and serialized Naruto in their digital Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. The anime series began airing in the United States and Canada in 2005, and in the United Kingdom and Australia in 2006 and 2007, respectively. The films and most OVAs from the series were also released by Viz, with the first film premiering in movie theaters. Viz Media began streaming the two anime series on their streaming service Neon Alley in December 2012. The story of Naruto continues with Naruto 's son, Boruto Uzumaki, in Boruto : Naruto Next Generations : Boruto wishes to create his own ninja way instead of following his father 's. Naruto is the third best - selling manga series in history, selling 235 million copies worldwide in 35 countries. It has become one of Viz Media 's best - selling manga series ; their English translations of the volumes have appeared on USA Today and The New York Times bestseller list several times, and the seventh volume won a Quill Award in 2006. Reviewers praised the manga 's character development, strong storylines, and well - executed fight scenes, though some felt the fight scenes slowed the story down. Critics noted that the manga, which has a coming - of - age theme, makes use of cultural references from Japanese mythology and Confucianism.

In response, the leader of Konoha, the Fourth Hokage, seals the fox inside the body of his newborn son, Naruto Uzumaki, making Naruto a host of the beast ; this costs Naruto 's father his life, and the Third Hokage returns from retirement to become leader of Konoha again. Naruto is often ridiculed by the Konoha villagers for being the host of the Nine - Tails. Because of a decree made by the Third Hokage forbidding anyone to mention these events, Naruto knows nothing about the Nine - Tails until 12 years later, when Mizuki, a renegade ninja, reveals the truth to Naruto. Naruto then defeats Mizuki in combat, earning the respect of his teacher Iruka Umino. Shortly afterwards, Naruto becomes a ninja and joins with Sasuke Uchiha, against whom he often competes, and Sakura Haruno, on whom he has a crush, to form Team 7, under an experienced sensei, the elite ninja Kakashi Hatake. Like all the ninja teams from every village, Team 7 completes missions requested by the villagers, ranging from doing chores and being bodyguards to performing assassinations. After several missions, including a major one in the Land of Waves, Kakashi allows Team 7 to take a ninja exam, enabling them to advance to a higher rank and take on more difficult missions, known as Chunin Exams. During the exams, Orochimaru, a wanted criminal, invades Konoha and kills the Third Hokage for revenge. Jiraiya, one of the three legendary ninjas, declines the title of Fifth Hokage and searches with Naruto for Tsunade whom he chooses to become Fifth Hokage instead. During the search, it is revealed that Orochimaru wishes to train Sasuke because of his powerful genetic heritage, the Sharingan. After Sasuke attempts and fails to kill his older brother Itachi when he showed up in Konoha to kidnap Naruto, he joins Orochimaru, hoping to gain from him the strength needed to kill Itachi. The story takes a turn when Sasuke leaves the Konoha village and when Tsunade finds out, she sends a group of ninja, including Naruto, to retrieve Sasuke, but Naruto is unable to persuade or force him to come back. Naruto and Sakura do not give up on Sasuke : Naruto leaves Konoha to receive training from Jiraiya to prepare himself for the next time he encounters Sasuke, while Sakura becomes Tsunade 's apprentice. Part II See also : List of Naruto chapters ( Part II, volumes 28 -- 48 ) and List of Naruto chapters ( Part II, volumes 49 -- 72 ) Two and a half years later, Naruto returns from his training with Jiraiya. The Akatsuki starts kidnapping the hosts of the powerful Tailed Beasts. Team 7 and other Leaf ninja fight against them and search for their teammate Sasuke. The Akatsuki succeeds in capturing and extracting seven of the Tailed Beasts, killing all the hosts except Gaara, who is now the Kazekage. Meanwhile, Sasuke betrays Orochimaru and faces Itachi to take revenge. After Itachi dies in battle, Sasuke learns from the Akatsuki founder Tobi that Itachi received an order from Konoha 's superiors to destroy his clan to prevent a coup. He accepted it on the condition that he would be allowed to spare Sasuke. Saddened by this revelation, Sasuke joins the Akatsuki to destroy Konoha in revenge. As Konoha ninjas defeat several Akatsuki members, the Akatsuki figurehead leader, Nagato, kills Jiraiya and devastates Konoha, but Naruto defeats and redeems him, earning the village 's respect and admiration. With Nagato 's death, Tobi, disguised as Madara Uchiha ( one of Konoha 's founding fathers ), announces that he wants to capture all nine Tailed Beasts to perform an illusion powerful enough to control all humanity and achieve world peace. The leaders of the five ninja villages refuse to help him and instead join forces to confront Tobi and his allies. That decision results in a Fourth Shinobi World War between the combined armies of the Five Great Countries ( known as the Allied Shinobi Forces ) and Akatsuki 's forces of zombie - like ninjas. The Five Kage try to keep Naruto, unaware of the war, in a secret island turtle near Kumogakure ( Hidden Cloud Village ), but Naruto finds out and escapes from the island with Killer Bee, the host of the Eight - Tails. At that time, Naruto -- along with the help of Killer Bee -- gains control of his Tailed Beast and the two of them head for the battlefield. During the conflict, it is revealed that Tobi is Obito Uchiha, a former teammate of Kakashi 's who was thought to be dead. The real Madara saved Obito 's life, and they have since collaborated. As Sasuke learns the history of Konoha, including the circumstances that led to his clan 's downfall, he decides to protect the village and rejoins Naruto and Sakura to thwart Madara and Obito 's plans. However, Madara 's body ends up possessed by Kaguya Otsutsuki, an ancient princess who intends to subdue all humanity. A reformed Obito sacrifices himself to help Team 7 stop her. Once Kaguya is sealed, Madara dies as well. Sasuke takes advantage of the situation and takes control of all the Tailed Beasts, as he reveals his goal of ending the current village system. Naruto confronts Sasuke to dissuade him from his plan, and after they almost kill each other in a final battle, Sasuke admits defeat and reforms. After the war, Kakashi becomes the Sixth Hokage and pardons Sasuke for his crimes. Years later, Kakashi steps down while Naruto marries Hinata Hyuga and becomes the Seventh Hokage, raising the next generation. Production Development In 1995, Shueisha released Karakuri, a one - shot manga by Masashi Kishimoto that earned an honorable mention in the Hop Step Award in 1996. Kishimoto was unsatisfied with his subsequent drafts for a follow up, and decided to work on another project. The new project was originally going to feature Naruto as a chef, but this version never made it to print. Kishimoto originally wanted to make Naruto a child who could transform into a fox, so he created a one - shot of Naruto for the summer 1997 issue of Akamaru Jump based on the idea. Despite the positive feedback it received in a readers ' poll, Kishimoto was unhappy with the art and the story, so he rewrote it as a story about ninjas. The first eight chapters of Naruto were planned before it appeared in Weekly Shōnen Jump, and these chapters originally devoted many panels of intricate art to illustrating the Konoha village. By the time Naruto debuted, the background art was sparse, instead emphasizing the characters. Though Kishimoto had concerns that chakra ( the energy source used by the ninjas in Naruto ) made the series too Japanese, he still believed it is an enjoyable read. Kishimoto is a fan of Godzilla, and the tailed beasts mythology was introduced because Kishimoto wanted an excuse to draw monsters. He has said that the central theme in Part I of Naruto is how people accept each other, citing Naruto 's development across the series as an example. For Part II of the manga, Kishimoto tried to keep the panel layouts and the plot easy for the reader to follow, and avoid `` overdo ( ing ) the typical manga style ''. He considers that his drawing style has changed from `` the classic manga look to something a bit more realistic. '' Because of wishing to end the arc involving Sasuke Uchiha search for his brother, Itachi, in a single volume, Kishimoto decided that volume 43 should include more chapters than regular volumes. As a result, Kishimoto apologized to readers for this since volume 43 was more expensive than regular volumes. Characters Main article : List of Naruto characters When he created Naruto, Kishimoto looked to other shōnen manga as influences for his work and tried to make his characters unique, while basing the story on Japanese culture. The separation of the characters into different teams was intended to give each group a particular flavor. Kishimoto wanted each member to have a high level of aptitude in one skill and be talentless in another. He found it difficult to write about romance, but emphasized it more in Part II of the manga, beginning with volume 28. He introduced villains into the story to have them act as a counterpoint to his characters ' moral values and clearly illustrate their differences. As a result of how the younger characters were significantly weaker than the villains, Kishimoto made the timeskip in order to have them age and become stronger during this time. Setting Kishimoto made use of the Chinese zodiac tradition, which had a long - standing presence in Japan ; the zodiac hand signs originate from this. When Kishimoto was creating the primary setting of the Naruto manga, he concentrated initially on the designs for the village of Konoha. The idea of the setting came to him `` pretty spontaneously without much thought, '' but admits that the scenery became based on his home in the Japanese prefecture of Okayama prefecture. Since the storyline does not specify when it is set, he was able to include modern elements in the series such as convenience stores. He considered including automobiles, planes and simple computers, but excluded projectile weapons and vehicles from the plot. Conclusion When serialization began, Kishimoto decided the ending would feature a fight between two characters : Naruto and Sasuke, which would end with Naruto forgiving Sasuke as he had forgiven Nagato. Kishimoto chose Hinata Hyuga as Naruto 's romantic partner from the early stages of the manga, since Hinata had always respected and admired Naruto even before the series ' beginning, and Kishimoto felt this meant the two of them could build a relationship. This decision annoyed his wife because she wanted Naruto to marry Sakura Haruno, but Kishimoto viewed Sakura as Naruto 's friend and teammate, rather than a future wife. When Hinata first appeared, Kishimoto thought of forming a love triangle among the three characters, but because he decided that fighting was the main focus of the manga, there was little room for romantic plotlines. By August 2009, Kishimoto had already planned the series ' following chapters and how it would conclude, stating he had yet needed the energy to finish the series.

The first Naruto video game was Naruto : Konoha Ninpōchō, which was released in Japan on March 27, 2003, for the WonderSwan Color. Most Naruto video games have been released only in Japan. The first games released outside of Japan were the Naruto : Gekitou Ninja Taisen series and the Naruto : Saikyou Ninja Daikesshu series, released in North America under the titles of Naruto : Clash of Ninja and Naruto : Ninja Council. In January 2012, Namco Bandai announced they had sold 10 million Naruto games worldwide. Art and guidebooks Main article : List of Naruto supplemental material Three official artbooks based on the Naruto series have been released. The first two, titled Art Collection : Uzumaki, and Illustration Collection : Naruto, were released in Japan in 2004 and 2009, with North American editions following in 2007 and 2010 respectively. The third artbook Illustration Collection : Naruto Uzumaki, was published in 2015 in Japan and later the same year in North America ; it contains artwork originally on Shonen Jump comic covers. It has no text except a brief commentary by Kishimoto about his favorite artworks. An interactive coloring book called Paint Jump : Art of Naruto was released in 2008. An unreleased artbook titled Naruto Exhibition Official Guest Book by Masashi Kishimoto was given to those who attended the Naruto art exhibition at the Mori Art Museum on April 25, 2015. Four guidebooks titled First Official Data Book through Fourth Official Data Book have been released ; the first two cover Part I of the manga, and were released in 2002 and 2005 ; the third and fourth volumes appeared in 2008 and 2014 These books contain character profiles, Jutsu guides, and drafts by Kishimoto. For the anime, a series of guidebooks called Naruto Anime Profiles was released. These books contain information about the production of the anime episodes and explanations of the characters ' designs. A manga fan book titled Secret : Writings from the Warriors Official Fanbook appeared in 2002, and another fan book was released to commemorate the series ' 10th anniversary, including illustrations of Naruto Uzumaki by other manga artists, a novel, Kishimoto 's one - shot titled Karakuri, and an interview between Kishimoto and Yoshihiro Togashi. Collectible card game Produced by Bandai, the Naruto Collectible Card Game was released in Japan in 2003, and in North America in 2006. The game is played between two players using a customized deck of fifty cards from the set, and a game mat. To win, a player must either earn ten `` battle rewards '' through their actions in the game or cause the other player to exhaust their deck. The cards were released in named sets called `` series, '' in the form of four 50 - card pre-constructed box sets. Each set includes a starter deck, the game mat, a turn - counter, and one stainless steel `` Ninja Blade Coin. '' Extra cards are available in 10 - card booster packs, and deck sets. Four box sets sold in retailers are available for each series. Cards for each set are available in collectible tins, containing several booster packs and exclusive promotional cards in a metal box. By October 2006, seventeen series had been released in Japan with 417 unique cards. As of August 2008, ten of these series had been released in North America. Commercial performance The manga has sold 235 million copies worldwide, including 140 million in Japan and 95 million overseas, making it the third best - selling manga series in history. More than half of the sales were in Japan, with the remaining sales from 35 other countries. It has become one of North American publisher Viz Media 's best - selling manga series ; their translation of the series appeared on USA Today and The New York Times bestseller lists several times, and volume seven of the manga won the Quill Award for graphic novel in 2006. It was included in the fiction section of Teacher Librarian 's recommended list for 2008, and School Library Journal described it as an essential manga for school libraries. Volume 28 of the manga reached 17th place in the USA Today Booklist in its first week of release in March 2008, only two places short of the record for a manga, held by Fruits Basket. The volume had one of the biggest debut weeks of any manga in years, becoming the top - selling manga volume of 2008 and the second best - selling book in North America. In 2010, Viz, the publisher, commented on the loyalty of readers, who reliably continued to buy the manga as the volume count went over 40. In April 2007, volume 14 earned Viz the Manga Trade Paperback of the Year Gem Award from Diamond Comic Distributors. The manga was nominated for Favorite Manga Series in Nickelodeon Magazine 's 2009 Comics Awards. In February 2015, Asahi Shimbun announced that Naruto was one of nine nominees for the nineteenth annual Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize, and the following month Kishimoto was the winner of Rookie of the Year for the series in the Japanese government 's Agency for Cultural Affairs 2014 Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology Fine Arts Recommendation Awards. Responding to Naruto 's success, Kishimoto said in Naruto Collector Winter 2007 / 2008 that he was `` very glad that the American audience has accepted and understood ninja. It shows that the American audience has good taste (... ) because it means they can accept something previously unfamiliar to them. '' Naruto Shippuden has been ranked several times as one of the most watched series in Japan. The first DVD compilation released by Viz received a nomination from the American Anime Awards for best package design. Reception Manga Several reviewers commented on the balance between fight scenes and plot development ; A.E. Sparrow of IGN and Casey Brienza of Anime News Network ( ANN ) felt that the result was a strong storyline, but Carl Kimlinger, also writing for ANN, suggested that there were too many fights, which slowed down the plot. Kimlinger liked the character designs, and approved of the fight scenes themselves which also drew positive comments from Rik Spanjers, who felt that the excitement of the scenes depends on Kishimoto 's skill in depicting action. Javier Lugo, writing for Manga Life, agreed, describing the artwork as `` dramatic, exciting, and just right for the story he 's telling ''. The anime and manga magazine Neo described Naruto 's character as `` irksome '', but considered that the series ' `` almost sickening addictiveness '' was due to the quality of the characterization, and in Briana Lawrence 's opinion the growth of the characters gave Part II an adult feel. In a review of volume 28 Brienza also praised Part II 's storyline and characterization, though she commented that not every volume reached a high level of quality. Gō Itō, a professor in the manga department of Tokyo Polytechnic University, compared the series ' development to the manga of Dragon Ball, saying that both manga present good illustrations of three - dimensional body movements that capture the characters ' martial arts very well. Gō felt readers could empathize with the characters in Naruto via their inner monologue during battles. The series also influenced the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. The World with director Edgar Wright saying he was inspired by how whenever there is a `` killer move '' in the manga, there is an impact in the background following any technique 's usage. There is an internet meme known as `` Naruto run '' based on the way the characters run leaning forward with their arms behind their backs. In September 2017, students from the University of the Philippines Los Baños Perspective started covering publications of students running like Naruto characters. When the manga ended, multiple authors from the magazine expressed congratulations to Kishimoto 's work. Anime The Naruto anime was listed as the 38th best animated show in IGN 's Top 100 Animated Series. In September 2005, Japanese television network TV Asahi broadcast a popularity poll based on a nationwide survey in which Naruto placed 17th. Mike Hale of The New York Times described the series as much better than American animation aimed at children, but the animation received some criticism from both the T.H.E.M. Anime Reviews critics : Christina Carpenter felt Kishimoto 's artistic style translated poorly into animation, and Derrick Tucker was also negative, though he felt that at their best, the depictions `` ( left ) little to be desired ''. As with the manga, some reviewers, such as Martin Theron of ANN, along with Tucker, felt there were too many fight scenes, though Justin Rich argued that the fight scenes were the most important and enjoyable element of the show. Carpenter also commented positively on the characters, though she felt that most were fairly stereotypical. Naruto : Shippuden was well - reviewed by Activeanime 's David C. Jones who commented that the animation had improved. ANN noted that the series has a more serious tone and a better balance between comedy and drama than the first anime series ; with more interesting digressions from the main plot. Although the pacing for the first episodes was criticised as slow, the delivery and development of the interactions between the characters received positive comments. Writing for the Los Angeles Times, Charles Solomon ranked Shippuden the third best anime on his `` Top 10 ''. Themes Amy Plumb argues that Kishimoto 's use of references to Japanese mythology in Naruto are intended to add further layers to the story. Kishimoto expects his readers to decode the references, which allows him to avoid direct explanations. One example is Itachi, who has three ninja techniques named after Shinto deities : Tsukiyomi, Amaterasu, and Susano - o. Plumb also cites Sasuke 's clan 's heraldic symbol, a fan known as an uchiwa. These fans are used in Japanese myths to exorcise evil, by blowing it away ; Sasuke discovers late in the series that he has the ability to `` blow away '' the influence of the Nine - Tailed Fox on Naruto. Foxes ( kitsune tsuki ) are tricksters in Japanese mythology, and in some stories they take over human bodies ; Plumb comments on the obvious similarities to the Nine - Tail sealed in Naruto, and the pranks Naruto plays. Christopher A. Born notes that the Naruto storyline contains traditional Confucian values, and suggests that students who analyse manga such as Naruto and Bleach will learn more about Confucianism than they would from studying its abstract ideas. Norman Melchor Robles Jr. evaluated the portrayal of both positive and negative ideas in Naruto by counting words in the script which were associated with either violence or positive values ; he found that a small majority of tagged words were violent, but commented that the portrayal of violence seemed organized to show how positive strategies on the part of the protagonists could overcome the violence. Sheuo Hui Gan considers the series to have a set of `` traditional ethical values. '' She also compares the treatment of alienation in Naruto, which Naruto overcomes by joining his society, to the portrayal of alienation in Akira and Neon Genesis Evangelion, where the main characters remain alienated. Naruto has been described by several critics as a coming - of - age story. Psychologist Lawrence C. Rubin suggests that the storylines would appeal to readers of any age who have lost loved ones, or are having difficulty finding friends, or who are in other situations shown in the series. In Yukari Fujimoto 's view, as the characters mature, they show respect to the adults who have raised and taught them, making it a conservative storyline in comparison to other manga of the same time period such as One Piece and Air Gear. Rik Spanjers sees the difference between Sasuke ( a loner ) and Naruto ( an optimist ) as tragic, arguing that the contrast between the two protagonists ' approach to the world is fundamental to the plot : `` Naruto 's strength grows as he gains more loved ones to protect, while Sasuke remains alone and is increasingly absorbed by his quest for revenge ''. Omote Tomoyuki points out that there are many comic moments in the story despite the difficulties Naruto finds himself in, but the comic elements diminish dramatically over time as Naruto grows into a teenager, particularly once Part II begins. Shōnen Jump began to carry comedies such as Gintama and Reborn ! from 2003 onwards, and in Tomoyuki 's view this is part of the reason for the change in emphasis : Naruto `` was not supposed to provide laughter anymore ''. Fujimoto argues that the story has overly traditional gender roles, noting `` (... ) its representations suggest that men are men and women are women and that they differ naturally regarding aptitude and vocation ''. For example, the girls initially outperform the boys in the Ninja Academy, but `` once the boys get serious, the girls can not keep pace ''. Fujimoto points out that this does not upset Sakura, who is now surpassed by Naruto. Character development based on female roles, when it does occur, again uses stereotypical roles : Tsunade, for example, a middle - aged woman with large breasts, is a clear mother figure, and when she teaches Sakura to be a medical ninja, which requires special skills possessed only by women, the story reinforces the idea that women only belong on the battlefield as healers. Tsunade herself, who is a figure of authority in Naruto, is portrayed as ridiculous in a way that men in the same position are not. Fujimoto suggests this presentation of women may explain why the female characters are often the most disliked characters among readers of the manga.
