Studio Pierrot was pretty messy in the anime adaptation of NarutoComplications mainly related to clearance and merchandising issues requested by TV Tokyo, which drove the creation of numerous filler episodes. The same ending that Masashi Kishimoto created is unfortunately fragmented in the anime.
On 500 episodes of Naruto Shippuden that is indeed good 40% was entirely invented by Studio Pierrot to deepen a passage or simply turn the story into a subplot to expand the narrative, which often triggers nervousness among fans. Unfortunately, fate also touched Boruto: Naruto the Next Generations, the continuation of the story, which has transposed only a few chapters of the manga in over 180 episodes.
Anyway, officially The final chapter of the Naruto manga is 700, the only one broken by Pierrot and then restored in a rather ambiguous formula. In fact, the last chapter of the manga is not found in the anime adaptation of Naruto, but in Boruto, and to be precise in some scenes of the episodes from 20 to 24. The graffiti scene on the face of Hokage, the mural with Kurama , modified by the studio, among other things, all sequences are only available in the spin-off of the original series.
