List of Naruto manga volumes

The Naruto manga is written by Masashi Kishimoto and published by Shueisha in Weekly Shōnen Jump. The series began its serialization in 1999. Shueisha later collects these chapters in tankōbon bound volumes. The first 244 chapters are known as Part I, and constitute the first part of the Naruto storyline. All subsequent chapters belong to Part II, which continues the storyline from Part I after a two and a half year timeskip. Viz Media licenses the Naruto manga for an English adaptation in North America, where it is serialized in the American Shonen Jump and released in volume format.

Several adaptations based on Naruto have been made, including two anime series and five featured films, with a sixth film slated for release during the summer of 2009. The first anime series, also titled Naruto, covers the entirety of Part I over 220 episodes. The second, named Naruto: Shippuden (ナルト 疾風伝), is based on Part II, and started airing on February 15, 2007. Both series are produced by Studio Pierrot and TV Tokyo, and air on TV Tokyo.

Shueisha has released 50 tankōbon in Japan, with the first 27 containing Part I, and the remaining 23 belonging to Part II. The first tankōbon was released on March 3, 2000, and volume 50 was released on March 4, 2010. In addition, five ani-manga tankōbon based on one of the first three Naruto and two Naruto: Shippūden films, have been released by Shueisha.

Viz Media has released 47 volumes of the English adaptation of the manga, with volume 1 released on August 16, 2003, and volume 47 released on February 2, 2010. In order to compensate for the gap between the Japanese and English adaptations of the manga, Viz announced its "Naruto Nation" campaign, where it would release three volumes a month in the last four months of 2007 in order to close said gap. A similar campaign happened in 2009, titled "Generation Ninja", with eleven volumes from Part II of the series being released between February and April in order to catch up to the Japanese serialization. Starting with the release of volume 45 in July, Viz will then release Naruto volumes on a quarterly basis.

Part I
Part I covers the first 244 chapters of the Naruto manga, and is contained in 27 tankōbon volumes. All 27 tankōbon have been released in Japan by Shueshia and in North America by Viz Media. Viz released volumes 16 through 27 over a four month period as part of the "Naruto Nation" campaign, meant to close the gap between the Japanese and English versions of the manga.

Part II
The second part of the Naruto storyline, known as Part II, encapsulates all the chapters following chapter 244, and is set two and a half years after the end of Part I. Shueisha has released 23 tankōbon of Part II in Japan, with the first volume (volume 28) released on June 3, 2005, and the twenty-third volume (volume 50) released on March 4, 2010. The English adaptation of Part II began serialization in the American Shonen Jump on December 4, 2007, and the first volume was released on March 4, 2008. To catch up with the Japanese serialization, Viz Media released eleven volumes from Part II between February and April of 2009, after which it began releasing Naruto on a quarterly basis.
