TV Tokyo showed Naruto animation series between October 2002 to February 2007 in Japanese and cartoon network broadcast the series through its division called toonami. Cartoon network soon stopped its toonami division but continued showing Naruto in the regular cartoon network.
The story is set up against the backdrop of a village called Konohagakure which is depicted as one among the five Shinobi nations.

It has many characters like his friends Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno and many more coming into existence by serendipity as the story moves ahead with the kid’s slow transformation into a ninja expert.
Apart from cartoon network, the Naruto episodes were shown on Bionix and Jetix UK as well. The animated Naruto episodes though based on the original comic series also added some colorful events and tales of its own. Despite having around 220 episodes only 209 episodes were telecast with the final one shown in January 2009. Fans are hopeful that rumors of Viz resuming the telecast of the popular series will be confirmed soon.
