3-How many are their manga books of Naruto as of this date?

4-How many are their Anime Episodes of Naruto as of this date?

5-Is their any special episode or movies of it?

I don't know when they came out but, right now only episode 50 is out for the tv show, and 186 for the manga I think.
There is a naruto special, find the crimson four leaf clover, but it sucked and it's a waste of time to watch it.

I see their 19 manga made:

Shounen Jump is always ahead of the actual volumes of manga, since they release one chapter of naruto a week. So the volumes of manga aren't up to where shounen jump is.
