Naruto finds a genie bottle at a party and suddenly everyone wants in on three wishes. The chaos that follows is pure Naruto energy: stupid high stakes, genuine friendship moments hiding under the comedy, and everyone's greed exposed the second magic enters the room. It's a filler special that understands what made people fall for this show in the first place, the ability to make you laugh at these characters while still caring what happens to them.
During a barbecue with his teammates and fellow genin, Naruto comes across an odd old bottle, and a genie lives inside it. The genie offers three wishes, but Naruto gets carried away and squanders the first two. Furious, Sasuke and Sakura clash with him over the one wish left, and soon the other young ninjas pile in, turning the argument into a full-scale fight for the bottle. This short action comedy special was shown alongside the Naruto Shippuden film The Lost Tower.
