In
ROAD TO NINJA – NARUTO THE MOVIE, long ago, a mysterious masked shinobi
unleashed the Nine-Tailed Fox onto the Village Hidden in the Leaves to
spread chaos and destruction. But the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze,
and his wife Kushina Uzumaki sealed the Tailed Beast into their newborn
son, Naruto, to save the village, foiling the shinobi’s plan.
Years later, Naruto and his friends succeed in driving away the infamous Akatsuki, who have mysteriously returned from the dead. Upon returning to the village, the young shinobi are praised by their families for completing a dangerous mission. Reminded of how alone he is, Naruto begins to wonder what it’s like to have parents, when a strange masked figure appears before him – the same masked shinobi responsible for the death of his parents!
VIZ
Media also invites NARUTO fans to catch the exciting adventures of the
world’s most popular ninja in manga (graphic novel) format (rated ‘T’
for Teens), available in-print and also digitally from VIZManga.com,
the VIZ Manga App, and from a host of partner platforms. Fans can
further dive into all of the previous NARUTO and NARUTO SHIPPUDEN
feature films on DVD or Blu-ray, and also catch anime series episodes
and select films on Neon Alley, VIZ Media’s FREE media streaming platform, including brand new, subtitled episodes simulcast with Japan!
In the NARUTO manga and animated series,
Naruto Uzumaki wants to be the best ninja in the land. He's done well
so far, but Naruto knows he must train harder than ever and leaves his
village for intense exercises that will push him to his limits. NARUTO
SHIPPUDEN begins two
and a half years later, when Naruto returns to find that everyone has
been promoted up the ninja ranks – except him. Sakura’s a medic ninja,
Gaara’s advanced to Kazekage, and Kakashi…well he remains the same. But
pride isn’t necessarily becoming of a ninja, especially when Naruto
realizes that Sasuke never returned from his search for Orochimaru.
Plus, the mysterious Akatsuki organization is still an ever-present
danger. As Naruto finds out more about the Akatsuki’s goals, he realizes
that nothing in his universe is as it seems. Naruto is finding that
he’s older, but will he also prove wiser and stronger?
