Naruto New Anime Details to Debut at New York Comic Con
The reveal is tied to the date of the character's own birthday, and the stage pairs the new anime with a 2027 card game, so the franchise's next phase is being presented as a coordinated push rather than a single title.

A completely new Naruto anime will get its first public information at New York Comic Con 2026. The announcement is set for a special stage titled "NARUTO: What's Next?" on October 10 local time, which is the birthday of protagonist Uzumaki Naruto. The convention runs in New York starting October 8. The stage also covers the latest on the Naruto Card Game, set for release in 2027. Scheduled guests include Takeuchi Junko, who voices Uzumaki Naruto, Sugiyama Noriaki, who voices Uchiha Sasuke, and Tominaga Yoshihiko, Executive Producer of PIERROT FILMS at Studio Pierrot. The event runs 17:00 to 18:00 local time at the Jacob Javits Convention Center's Empire Stage, which is 6:00 to 7:00 on October 11 Japan time. A worldwide simultaneous live stream of the stage is confirmed on the official NARUTO/BORUTO YouTube channel.
The stage listing places the anime announcement alongside a card game launch, giving the October 10 event two franchise items rather than one. The live stream matters for the timing: the Japanese audience watches at 6:00 AM on October 11 rather than attending in New York.
Studio Pierrot has handled the Naruto anime series, and the executive producer appearing is from PIERROT FILMS. Takeuchi Junko and Sugiyama Noriaki, the voices of Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, are both on the guest list, which the stage notes omits beyond the named three. The copyright line credits Masashi Kishimoto, Shueisha, TV Tokyo, and Pierrot.
The sources agree on the date and the world-first framing. What remains unspecified is the anime's format, whether series or film, and any release window. The card game has a stated year, 2027, while the anime has only the announcement date.
