“Boruto: Naruto Next Generations” is a new manga drawn about the next generation of Naruto, the legendary manga about the fantasy ninja world loved by many people of the first 8x and 9x generations. Although inheriting the context from the previous series, but this time the central character is Naruto’s son – Uzumaki Boruto, along with his teammate Sarada Uchiha – Sasuke’s daughter and Mitsuki – Orochimaru’s son .
However, unlike the movie Boruto: Naruto The Movie, the comic book about Boruto when it was released was immediately met with an outcry response from longtime Naruto fans, most of whom felt unable to swallow the words. New character drawing by Mikio Ikemoto – the assistant of the original author Kishimoto Masashi, who is also trusted to draw and draft the script for this new story. However, life is not like a dream, Boruto manga has brought many boring, repetitive details and lost the essence that Naruto used to have.
Seeing the sequel of his brainchild being estranged from fans, author Kishimoto decided to shelve all projects and replace Kodachi (author Boruto) to continue writing Boruto manga from chapter 52 onwards. There are many reasons for the return of the father of Naruto this time, besides the reason that Boruto’s rating has dropped without stopping, it is also because Kishimoto’s Samurai 8 manga is going to a dead end. Kishimoto’s return opens a new page for the Boruto series and energizes the Naruto fan community for a more worthy and engaging sequel. After a few surprising chapters with the loss of Naruto’s power and especially the screen where Boruto blinded Sasuke, the attraction of Boruto manga is still not interested by readers at the end of 2021.
Currently Boruto is coming to chapter 66, where Naruto’s son has chosen death to get rid of Momoshiki and prevent him from taking over his power and controlling his brain. This is said to be a positive step by author Kishimoto to change this series in 2022. Currently, the effect of tapping more deeply into the new cast of characters, instead of sticking to the already famous cast of characters. sound and somewhat outdated, in the future we will see more performances of Boruto, Mitsuki or Kawaki. Personality, desire, and path to becoming a powerful ninja must be shown, not just power buffs done. Besides, the villains are also invested more by Kishimoto not only in strength but also in character’s personality, of which Code is a typical example.
Currently, there is no sign that Boruto will be more attractive and attractive to readers in 2022, but with the efforts of author Kishimoto – the father of Naruto, hopefully this year we will see a really good sequel. What do you think about this, please leave your comments!
