There's no denying it: Naruto , created by Masashi Kishimoto , is a true icon of otaku culture. After all, the series has become one of the most recognized anime worldwide , even among those who have never truly delved into the anime universe.

However, despite its importance, the series has been over for a while now and could undeniably benefit from a remake. Especially now that another industry giant, One Piece , is getting a remake.
What to expect from a Naruto anime remake
One important point fans raised for a possible remake was the video published by vizmedia to celebrate the series' 20th anniversary. All the scenes were animated from scratch based on the original.
However, it's worth remembering that Naruto marked an entire generation of fans. Released in 2002, the anime quickly won over audiences and remains popular to this day, despite concluding its run in 2017. Eight years have passed since its conclusion, and many fans now only watch its successor, Boruto .
However, Boruto hasn't won over all fans. After all, the plot prioritizes the new generation of ninjas, leaving some classic characters in the background. This leaves a significant portion of the audience missing the original essence. Thus, the question arises: wouldn't it be the perfect time for a Naruto remake?
One Piece remake , currently in production by WIT , proves that there's room—and demand—for new versions of acclaimed anime. Therefore, imagining Naruto getting a modern, higher-quality animation without filler episodes doesn't seem so far-fetched.
Although there's no official announcement yet, it's speculated that commemorative dates, such as the anime's 25th anniversary in 2027, could serve as ideal occasions for this new release. Eventually, a remake would reignite the passion of old fans and present Naruto in a fresh way to a new generation, even boosting sales of the manga.
Meanwhile, original episodes remain available on Crunchyroll , including Naruto Shippuden and Boruto .
