Naruto the Movie: Road to the Ninja

The struggle against the rebellious ninja group "Akatsuki" had just ended, and Konoha Village was shrouded in a strange and ominous atmosphere. At this moment, Uzumaki Naruto (voiced by Junko Takeuchi) is immersed in missing his family, lonely and helpless. One night, Naruto, who was in a bad mood, happened to meet Sakura (voiced by Chie Nakamura) who had just had a quarrel with her family. While the two were chatting in the park, the mysterious Madara (voiced by Naoya Uchida) suddenly appeared and used the pupil technique on the two. After the dizziness, Naruto and Sakura discovered that the Leaf Village seemed to be as normal as usual, but the personalities of their once familiar partners had changed dramatically. A series of abnormal events made the two of them distressed. What's even more unbelievable is that Minato Namikaze (voiced by Tomoyuki Morikawa) and Kushina (voiced by Emi Shinohara), parents of Sasuke and Naruto, also appeared in front of them. Madara's conspiracy slowly unfolds... This film is adapted from the original manga by Masashi Kishimoto and is the ninth animated theatrical version of the work.
