Naruto and Sasuke’s relationship might make them the best example of anime “frenemies” that we’ve ever seen. While the two were initially rivals in the early parts of the series, they would go on to be enemies throughout most of Naruto: Shippuden thanks to Sasuke taking any means necessary to get revenge against his brother Itachi. As new secrets were revealed, Sasuke would go on to have a dynamic fight against Naruto to cap off Shippuden but would then see the light and become a valued member of Konoha once again. With the world turned upside down thanks to Two Blue Vortex, Sasuke Uchiha now finds himself by Boruto’s side as the Hidden leaf hunts for Naruto’s son.
Naruto x Sasuke Trailer
Shonen Jump released the new Naruto trailer that highlights a number of panels from the earlier days of the shonen series. While Naruto and Sasuke could not be more different when it comes to their personalities, the Uzumaki and Uchiha bond has certainly strengthened over the years. It will be interesting to see if this bond remains strong or if the families will one day be at odds once again.
Initially, the original Naruto anime series was slated to receive four new episodes from Studio Pierrot this past September. Unfortunately, the installments were delayed indefinitely as Pierrot stated that the animation would need some additional work before the episodes hit the small screen. With the episodes slated to follow the early years of the Hidden Leaf, it has yet to be revealed what events will take place in these flashback installments.
