We're also not going to cover the chibi-style "Rock Lee & His Ninja Pals," nor will we look at storylines from the video games. Naruto became popular so its no wonder it didnt just end, although there is a bit of wonder in that, because after all 220 episodes is enough, but this time we got more than double that and thats 500 episodes please. Still, their lovely animation and stirring storylines make them indelible additions. With the largest collection of English-dubbed episodes online and the option to watch in the original Japanese with English subtitles, thereâs sure to be something for everyone. Before we begin, take note: None of the movies are canon except "The Last" and "Boruto" (though the latter is somewhat debatable). Watch Funimationâs library of HD, ad-free anime shows featuring iconic classics and the hottest new series streaming just hours after they air in Japan. Where's a prospective "Naruto" fan supposed to begin? With this list, of course! We're here to explain the correct order in which to watch the sprawling, multi-series-spanning "Naruto" franchise. Some fans stress the division between which episodes are canon (meaning they're based on the manga) and which are "filler," but even the filler episodes are fun to watch, and often add something to the saga's backstory. With 220 episodes in the first "Naruto" series, another 500 episodes in "Naruto: Shippuden," nearly 200 episodes (and counting) in "Boruto," and multiple movies, there's a lot to watch. The beloved anime is based on Masashi Kishimoto's manga, which is one of the most popular of all time. Seriously - it even has its own theme park.

"Naruto" is one of the most popular anime franchises of all time.
