Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto over two decades ago, has become a legendary anime and manga series. The protagonist, Naruto Uzumaki, undergoes significant growth and development throughout the narrative. Let’s explore Naruto’s age at different points in the franchise:

In OG Naruto

  • Naruto starts his journey as a 12-year-old, a tween, when he graduates from the Hidden Leaf Village’s Ninja Academy.
  • The first part of the Naruto series, airing from 2002 to 2007, depicts Naruto as a pre-teen, from 12 to 13 years old.

 

In “Naruto’s Footsteps: The Friends’ Paths” Arc

  • This arc, taking place six months prior to the start of Part 2 and the “Kazekage Rescue Arc,” shows Naruto at around 15 years old.
  • During this arc, Naruto is two years into his training with Jiraiya.

 

In Naruto: Shippuden

  • After a time jump between the first and second parts of the series, Naruto returns to the Hidden Leaf Village as a 15-year-old.
  • The second part of the series, Naruto: Shippuden, unfolds over less than two years, with Naruto becoming 17 years old by the end of the series.

 

In The Last: Naruto the Movie

  • The movie takes place two years after the events of the Great Ninja War.
  • Naruto and most of his friends are 19 years old in this movie.
  • Naruto officially becomes romantically involved with Hinata in The Last.

 

In Boruto: Naruto Next Generations

  • By the time of Boruto, Naruto has married Hinata, had two children, and become the Hokage.
  • Naruto is a 32-year-old adult in Boruto, no longer the protagonist but a crucial character in the series.
  • Part 1 of Boruto spans almost 300 episodes.
  • For Part 2 of Boruto, there is an expected time skip, and Naruto should have turned 33 during Boruto Part 1.

As Boruto: Naruto Next Generations continues, Naruto’s fate and age in the upcoming chapters, especially after the anticipated time skip in Part 2, remain to be seen.
