WhileHollywoods history with anime adaptationsis complicated, the reception to NetflixsOne Piecehas proven that theNarutomovie can work.
AdaptingNarutoas a movie instead of a TV show is a risky choice considering the length of the manga.
Naruto has captured fans with its esteemed openings.

From visuals, tone, and meanings all the openings are amazing, but some go beyond amazement.
Such distinction doesn’t exist in the manga.
Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi are already fascinating characters who could carry a live-action movie.
Also toEWfollowing the announcement of the Naruto film, Kishimoto mentioned having enjoyed Cretton’s previous films.
Even the villains felt human and relatable.
I also hope theNarutomovie lives up to the anime in terms of action sequences.
Hopefully, Crettons upcomingNarutomovie will be the first of many.
