Spoilers if you aren't caught up.

I've never read the Naruto Manga, I started binge watching about two years ago
on Hulu and finally caught up to where the anime is.

Is this because of the Manga are so far ahead and that's why the movie is now
made?

question
naruto
Naruto Shippuden at ep. 445 on Hulu, but movies are further. Is this due to the manga?


The Manga is Already Over, it ended in November of 2014, so it has been done
for over a year now. The anime has been more filler than canon material for
the last 2 years. There is little canon material left for them to do after the
Activation of the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

First of all, The Last: Naruto the Movie is just two years after the war
ended. Also I think you are okay watching The Last: Naruto the Movie already.
If I remember correctly there is only about one thing you will miss and it's
about

> Kakashi turning into the Hokage

The manga started somewhere in 1999 and already ended on November 10, 2014

The episode you are on should be a filler if I'm correct. So that means that
the episode is not part of the main story. That means you should be in volume
70 or 71 of the manga. Also if I'm correct the main story should be taking
place somewhere in or after chapter 678, which is in volume 70.

So to actually answer your question. No, the manga is not far ahead they just
decided to make the movie, the manga ended about two years ago so they decided
to make the movie.

Also, The Last: Naruto the Movie is just mainly focused on Naruto and Hinata
and the story about how they ended up together.
