While Naruto‘s story isn’t perfect – sometimes it feels slow and includes unnecessary scenes – its genuine emotion is what makes it so enduring. That’s why very few anime reach its level.

Shonen Jump+ has already ended over 40 series this year, and now My Marriage to Saneka is among them. The final chapter, number 25, will be released on November 25, 2025. This news comes from @WSJ_manga on X, a trusted source for updates on Shonen Jump series.
