Fans of the classic Naruto are eagerly awaiting the four new episodes , initially scheduled for September 2023, but postponed indefinitely.

In addition to bringing possible updates on series such as the 5th season of Black Clover, the studio should finally announce the new episodes of Naruto.
2025 could mark the return of Naruto:
While news has been scarce, fans can rest easy knowing that new Naruto episodes remain a priority for the studio. According to a financial review by TV Tokyo , the broadcaster responsible for the franchise, the episodes are expected to be released by March 2025 at the latest. This confirms that the project is underway and the Anime Japan event would be the ideal time to make the premiere date official.
With the third cour of Bleach completed and Studio Pierrot revamping its production processes, the chances of Naruto returning soon are high. Initially, 2023 promised to be a landmark year for fans of the franchise, with the end of the Boruto , the release of the Minato one-shot Two Blue Vortex arc . Unfortunately, the celebratory episodes were delayed due to the studio's high workload, which was also dealing with production issues on Boruto and the second cour of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War .
Studio Pierrot should announce more news
Studio Pierrot has already confirmed the adaptation of the manhwa Latna Saga , but other franchises await updates, such as the second part of Boruto , the 10th anniversary of Tokyo Ghoul and possible news about Yona of the Dawn and Black Clover . With significant changes at the studio, Pierrot's future looks brighter than ever. And what better way to consolidate this new phase than with the triumphant return of Naruto, one of his greatest creations?
