Naruto's order is simple — two series, back to back. What throws people off is the filler: it's one of the most filler-heavy franchises in anime. Here's the order, and where the trap is.
- TV · 220 ep · 2002
The original series. The canonical story wraps up around episode 135 — the final stretch is almost all filler, check the list.
- TV · 500 ep · 2007
Picks up two and a half years later. The main story with filler gaps throughout — the filler list is your best friend here.
- Movie · 2014
The only fully canonical movie: it closes Naruto and Hinata's story between the end of Shippuden and the epilogue.
- TV · 293 ep · 2017Optional
The next generation. Only if you want more — Naruto's own story is already wrapped by the previous step.
