How old is Naruto? Explaining his age throughout the series, movies, and Boruto.

Masashi Kishimoto’s Naruto series is highly acclaimed as one of the most well-known anime and manga series in history, and it has captured the hearts of fans for various reasons. Among these reasons, the most prominent one is the titular character’s determination to become the Hokage and earn the recognition of the villagers in Hidden Leaf Village.

Similarly, the series chronicles the journey of a young Uzumaki clan ninja as he strives to become the leader of his village. This pursuit spans from his childhood to adulthood, where he eventually establishes his own family. Throughout the series, viewers witness the protagonist fulfilling his aspirations, successfully attaining the title of 7th Hokage and gaining the recognition of his village.

It is understandable that a series covering such a vast period of time may not always be consistent in indicating the passage of time or the ages of certain characters. However, there is a reliable method to determine the protagonist’s age at important stages of his life and journey, even long after he has achieved his dream.

What is Naruto’s Age in Naruto and Naruto Shippuden?

During the pre-time-skip portion of the series, it is revealed that he was born on October 10th. He enrolls in the Leaf Village Academy at six years old and is already 12 years old when the series begins. He remains 13 years old during the Chunin Exams arc, which is the focus of the arc, and throughout the rest of the original anime series.

After the initial anime series, viewers witness Naruto’s ongoing journey in the Shippuden anime, which is considered Part II of the manga. This section takes place two years after the previous one, resulting in Naruto being 15 years old at the beginning of Shippuden.

During the Pain’s Assault arc of the series, which occurs 152 episodes into the Shippuden series, he is said to be 16 years old. The Fourth Shinobi World War arc, which takes place during the same year, is the next major arc in the series and ends on his 17th birthday, October 10th. In other words, he celebrates his 17th birthday in the final episodes of the Shippuden series.

The events of the film occur two years after the previous events, making Naruto 19 years old. In the credits, he is seen marrying his love interest Hinata Hyuga and a post-credits scene reveals them with their two children.

What is the age of Naruto in Boruto and Boruto Two Blue Vortex?

The Boruto series follows the adventures of Naruto’s son, Boruto Uzumaki, attracting fans to the franchise. Although viewers do not witness Naruto’s ascension to the 7th Hokage, he is estimated to be 29-31 years old when he achieves the title. The events of the Fourth Shinobi World War occurred 15 years prior to the start of the Boruto anime, making Naruto approximately 32 years old at the beginning. The series begins with a flashforward to when Boruto is 16.

It can be inferred that Boruto is 16 in the flashforward, indicating that his father is approximately 36 years old during this time. However, the Boruto manga has already started its own Part II, called Two Blue Vortex, before reaching this flash-forward sequence. Similar to the original manga series, the two parts are separated by a time-skip of three years. Therefore, it can be assumed that at the beginning of Boruto Two Blue Vortex, he is around 35 years old.
