If you’ve always wanted to watch Naruto but could not abide its quality, then Japan has got the thing for you. Today, the folks over at Animax Japan announced it was undergoing a long-awaited project which fans will love. After more than a decade, the original Naruto anime is getting an HD remaster. So, think less Naruto Kai and more Naruto: The Remastered Years.

According to Animax, the remaster will simply be an HD do-over and will not cut down any episodes. So, if you were hoping the remaster would condense Naruto’s many filler arcs, then prepare to be let down. At most, the remaster may make an effort to clean up the anime’s actual animation errors, but there will not be any tinkering done to its structure.

The anime is expected to being airing immediately in conjunction with Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. Fans will be able to watch Naruto Uzumaki’s younger years before they bear witness to the ninja’s son. Of course, audiences will notice the gap between the two series and their animation styles. Despite being brought up to 1080p, the original Naruto anime will house its original animation; It will pale a bit to Boruto’s softer style, but fans are eager to see remastered fights from the original show. Just imagine the Chunin Exams and the Sannin’s Reunion in HD. Yeah, it’s going to be great.

There is no word on whether the HD remaster will be coming to the U.S. via streaming sites, but fans do have hope. Platforms like Hulu and Crunchyroll house the original Naruto anime, so the sites may be able to license the remastered edition once it is finished airing. You can check out the synopsis for Boruto: Naruto Next Generations below:
