Episode Context

As episode 1 of 220, this is the definitive starting point, no prior context needed, just a world being built from the ground up. It establishes Naruto's driving motivation, his key relationships, and the Hidden Leaf Village as a living setting. The next episode, 'My Name is Konohamaru!', expands Naruto's circle and deepens his character through new interactions, continuing the early-series foundation before the team formations and missions that define the opening arcs.
