Naruto<\/a> fans get confirmation that the next entry in a hit line of franchise releases is coming sooner than expected.<\/p>\n

Per a recent X (formerly Twitter) post from the official VIZ Media account, the next limited-edition Naruto Blu-ray release is just around the corner. The limited-edition Naruto Shippuden Set 9 Blu-ray will be available on Jan. 27, 2026 from VIZ Media, all with another exclusive art card and a whole host of special features for fans lucky enough to get hold of the new release for themselves.<\/p>\n

The official description for the limited-edition Naruto Shippuden Set 9 Blu-ray release from VIZ Media reads, “As Madara advances, the Allied Shinobi Forces rally. Naruto is shipped off on a secret mission to keep him hidden from the Akatsuki, leading to pirates, danger, and a journey across the sea.”<\/p>\n

Based on Masashi Kishimoto’s 1999 manga of the same name, the Naruto anime series first kicked off in 2002, introducing audiences to a pulse-pounding world of fantastical ninjas. The series revolves around Naruto Uzumaki<\/a> who, as a newborn, was used as the living vessel-turned-prison for the near-unstoppable monstrous fox known as the Nine-Tails. For the next 12 years, Naruto lives his life unaware of the truth, although things take a drastic turn once it is all out in the open.<\/p>\n

Upon learning of his true nature, Naruto sets out to become one of the greatest ninja of all time<\/a>. Over the course of the series, he crosses paths with dozens of unforgettable characters, each of whom has their own goals in mind. Naruto also becomes embroiled in numerous major story arcs, each with their own lasting implications for the rest of the franchise. The original series ran for a total of 220 episodes before continuing in 2007 with Naruto: Shippuden.<\/p>\n

Based largely on the second part of Kishimoto’s original manga, Naruto: Shippuden added another 500 episodes to the overarching narrative<\/a>, all set across a whopping 22 seasons. The most recent Blu-ray release covered episodes 193 to 220 of the series and was released in October. Based on past release dates for the Naruto Blu-ray sets, fans should be able to safely look forward to at least three more similar releases throughout 2026 after Naruto Shippuden Set 9 arrives in stores next month.<\/p>\n

The limited edition Naruto Shippuden Set 9 Blu-ray will be available on Jan. 27, 2026 from VIZ Media.<\/p>\n
