Naruto Abridged

Naruto Abridged

Project Overview

We're a group of writers, actors and artists who grew up watching Naruto, now we want to share our love and enjoyment of this classic shonen anime by making our own Abridged series. Originally in 2016 we made an abridged pilot that got taken down by the YouTube overlords. We are the same group with some new skills looking to reinvigorate this project. We want you to lend your talents and show us what you can do. We're looking for actors who can balance drama and comedy.
