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 immersed themselves in the world of anime.

However, despite its importance, the series ended some time ago and could undeniably benefit from a remake. Especially now that another giant of the industry, One Piece , is getting a new version.
What to expect from a Naruto anime remake
One important point that fans raised regarding 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, even though its run ended in 2017. Eight years have passed since its conclusion, and many fans now only follow its successor, Boruto .
However, Boruto didn't win over all fans. After all, the plot prioritizes the new generation of ninjas, leaving some classic characters in the background. This causes a significant portion of the audience to miss the original essence. Thus, the discussion arises: wouldn't this be the perfect time for a Naruto remake?
One Piece remake , currently in production by Studio WIT , proves that there is room—and demand—for new versions of acclaimed anime. Therefore, imagining Naruto getting a modern animation, with superior quality and without filler episodes, doesn't seem so far-fetched.
Although there is no official announcement yet, it is speculated that commemorative dates, such as the anime's 25th anniversary in 2027, could serve as the ideal occasion for this news. Eventually, a remake would rekindle the passion of old fans and present Naruto in a renewed way to a new generation, even boosting manga sales.
Meanwhile, the original episodes remain available on Crunchyroll , including Naruto Shippuden and Boruto .
