Naruto: The Gallery, an exhibition celebrating the ninja anime Naruto, will make its first-ever international debut at Universal Studios Singapore (USS). The exhibition was previously only shown in Japan.
From 28 Mar to 30 Jun, visitors can take in the narrative and history of Naruto through a series of six areas with storyboards, character art and video displays at USS’ Soundstage 28. Naruto is one of the best-selling manga series of all time.
This exhibition is in line with the 20th anniversary of the anime, which is based on the manga of the same name, said Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) in a press release on Tuesday (Mar 19).
Here's what visitors can expect:
THEMED ZONES
With six themed zones, visitors will be able to relive pivotal moments from Naruto’s early years to his ultimate showdowns.
This includes the path of Naruto’s rival Sasuke and the climactic events of the Fourth Great Ninja War.

Other highlights include the diorama of Naruto’s hometown – the Hidden Leaf Village – a collection of iconic and emotional scenes, and a seven-minute screening of the series’ final battle in a 4D theatre.

The exhibition also features exclusive video works of iconic scenes from Naruto by five Japanese animation artists – Ai Nina, Kohei Kadowaki, Kosuke Sugimoto, Kota Morie and que.
Visitors can even get a personalised souvenir to remember the experience – by taking pictures with Naruto characters at the photo booth found at the end of the exhibition.
OFFICIAL MERCHANDISE AND NARUTO-THEMED FOOD
There’s more to take home than just the photo booth picture.
At the end of the exhibition lies a specially curated merchandise collection, which includes items such as a 20th anniversary collection of tin badges, tote bags, mini cards and Furoshiki (wrapping cloths).
Visitors can also indulge in the Naruto-themed food at the special pop-up Naruto: The Gallery Café located at KT's Grill. The menu was made in collaboration with The Brand Talker.

The exhibition was first shown at Akiba Square in Japan Tokyo in 2022. Its Singapore debut is organised by Group IME, and presented by RWS and touring partner SL Experiences.
“Resorts World Sentosa is thrilled to be the first destination outside of Japan to host the iconic world of Naruto with Naruto: The Gallery,” said RWS Chief Experience Officer Chang Chee Pey.
Likewise, co-founder of SL Experiences and Group IME Ross Leo said: “It is our honour to be able to show the works of Kishimoto-san, which span more than 20 years. We hope that everyone can experience the beauty of this hugely successful creation through this experience."
Naruto: The Gallery will be open from Mar 28 to Jun 30 Jun, 11am to 6pm. Access is included with regular admission to Universal Studios Singapore, which is priced at $83 for adults and S$62 for children.
