Synopsis
Spoiler shield

Demons that once almost destroyed the world, are revived by someone. To prevent the world from being destroyed, the demon has to be sealed and the only one who can do it is the shrine maiden Shion from the country of demons, who has two powers; one is sealing demons and the other is predicting the deaths of humans. This time Naruto's mission is to guard Shion, but she predicts Naruto's death. The only way to escape it, is to get away from Shion, which would leave her unguarded, then the demon, whose only goal is to kill Shion will do so, thus meaning the end of the world. Naruto decides to challenge this "prediction of death."

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”

Part of

Naruto Collection

Naruto movies chronicle Naruto Uzumaki's journey as a young ninja aspiring to be Hokage, featuring numerous standalone adventures and filler arcs, with most films focusing on original stories like protecting a princess in the snowy land or fighting dream-world threats, though The Last: Naruto the Movie and Boruto: Naruto the Movie are canon, exploring key canon events like Naruto's romance with Hinata and Boruto's origin. The collection spans Naruto, Naruto Shippuden, and Boruto, highlighting themes of friendship, perseverance, and overcoming loneliness through action-packed missions and character development.
