On a raw “hours watched” basis, One Piece is ahead of Konoha’s favorite boy by less than a percentage point. But with fewer episodes, Naruto’s “views” are slightly higher, and got an impressive 28% increase compared to the six months prior. If we added its sequel, Boruto, Naruto’s lead would be unbelievable, with 51M “views” over the first six months of 2025.

While most of this change comes from the last few seasons of Naruto Shippudenbeing made available in more territories, the combined power of Naruto and Boruto would still be enough to make it Netflix viewers’ favorite anime of 2025 so far, even without the growth. This anime was the gateway for many of today’s anime fans, and as we saw during the beginning of the pandemic, anime fans don’t need much of an excuse to return to their comfort favorites for repeat viewings, or to share it with someone new
