Naruto Invades Burger King, Netflix Charms with Hitman Anime Drama

Anime Fans Rejoice: Burger King Gets Naruto Makeover

Burger King created two anime-inspired menus that launched alongside their restaurant rebranding initiative. Burger King released Naruto-themed food options in January 2021 to honor the Naruto anime’s main heroes.

The French-exclusive Burger King menu features two minor heroes from Naruto namely Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha in burger offers. The Menu Naruto uses a beef patty topped with a sesame bun and includes cheese, lettuce, and fried onions with orange soy dressing.

Menu Sasuke serves a chicken patty version of the Naruto burger with ketchup and the same toppings. The menus include special merchandise items that are unique to each offer. Users who buy Menu Naruto receive a corduroy hat that shows both BK burger artwork and Naruto’s recognizable headband. Menu Sasuke lets fans purchase a Sasuke t-shirt showing the anime character eating his favorite burger.

According to the reports of Dexerto Burger King and Naruto brand includes dining choices designed for children. The Naruto children’s menu features a collectible hat plus specific playing cards alongside fries, drinks, desserts, and sides. It also includes a taste of their exclusive Naruto sauce. The collaboration was delivered when Burger King selected BKonoha as their temporary restaurant name until January 27.

We now have BKonoha instead of Burger King because it celebrates the original setting in Naruto. Naruto enthusiasts showed their excitement for this project on Reddit by saying it met their fast food collaboration wish list. Reddit users celebrated their long-awaited dream of watching Naruto and Sasuke combat global rulers while eating at the mystical Konoha village.
