The long-awaited return has been officially confirmed, and fans can rejoice as four new episodes are set to hit the screens this September. After months of anticipation, the anime’s official website revealed the exciting premiere date of September 3, 2023.
As part of the celebration, the anime will air on Sundays at 5:30 PM JST on TV Tokyo-affiliated Japanese television networks. The announcement comes with a stunning new key visual featuring the original Team 7 – Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi – reminiscent of the good old days that captivated millions of viewers worldwide.
And that’s not all! FLOW, the iconic band known for their “GO!!!” opening theme in the original anime, is back to perform the revamped version of the same song. Fans couldn’t contain their excitement upon hearing the news of FLOW’s return and eagerly await the fresh take on this nostalgic tune.
However, the plot of these four special episodes remains shrouded in mystery, leaving fans speculating about what exciting adventures await Naruto and his friends. While some expressed concerns about the episodes merely reanimating old content, others are bubbling with anticipation, hoping for new and thrilling storylines.
Many fans who weren’t entirely satisfied with Boruto’s storyline are over the moon about Naruto’s comeback. For them, this is a golden opportunity to relive the nostalgia and rediscover the magic of Naruto’s world. Some even dare to dream that these new episodes could surpass Boruto’s entire run, adding to the excitement surrounding the anime’s return.
