01. Google Honors Naruto for Its 25th Anniversary

Naruto’s first manga was released on September 21, 1999. Recently, the official website announced that Naruto has partnered with Google to celebrate its 25th anniversary. This celebration began on September 21, 2024, and will last until September 2025.
