Boruto: Naruto Next Generations (Japanese: BORUTO-ボルト- -Naruto Next Generations-, Hepburn: Boruto: Naruto Nekusuto Jenerēshonzu) is a Japanese manga series written by Ukyō Kodachi and illustrated by Mikio Ikemoto. It was serialised monthly in Shueisha's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump since May 2016 until it was transferred to Shueisha's monthly magazine V Jump in July 2019. Boruto is a spin-off and a sequel to Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto, which follows the exploits of Naruto Uzumaki's Son, Boruto Uzumaki, and his ninja team.
Boruto originated from Shueisha's proposal to Kishimoto on making a sequel to Naruto. However, Kishimoto rejected this offer and proposed his former assistant Mikio Ikemoto to draw it; the writer of the film Boruto: Naruto the Movie,
Ukyō Kodachi, created the plot. While both Kodachi and Ikemoto are in
charge of the manga, Kodachi also oversees the anime's adaptation
alongside Kishimoto. An anime television series adaptation directed by Noriyuki Abe started airing on TV Tokyo on 5 April 2017. Unlike the manga, which began as a retelling of the Boruto film, the anime begins as a prequel set before Boruto and his friends become ninjas in a later story arc. A series of light novels have also been written.
Pierrot's
anime prequel also earned praise for its use of both new and returning
characters but the narrative of the manga was noted to be more serious
as it focused more on the protagonist. Shueisha has shipped a million
copies of the manga series as of January 2017.
Manga
Opening up with Boruto Uzumaki facing a foe named Kawaki during the destruction of his village, the manga follows with a retelling of events in Boruto: Naruto the Movie with added content.[2] Being the son of the Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki, Boruto
felt angry over his father placing the village before his family. At that time, Boruto had become a member of a ninja team led by Naruto's protégé Konohamaru Sarutobi, along with Sarada Uchiha, the daughter of Sasuke and Sakura Uchiha, and Mitsuki, Orochimaru's
artificial son. When Sasuke returns to the village to warn Naruto of an
impending threat relating to deducing the motivations of Kaguya
Otsutsuki, Boruto persuades the Uchiha to train him for the upcoming
Chunin exam to impress his father.
During the exam, Momoshiki Otsutsuki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki—the threat of whom Sasuke spoke—appear and abduct Naruto so they can use Kurama,
a tailed beast sealed inside his body, to revitalise the dying Divine
Tree from the dimension they came from. Boruto joins Sasuke and the four
Kages—the leaders of other ninja villages—to rescue Naruto. The battle
ends when Momoshiki, sacrificing Kinshiki to increase, is defeated by
Boruto and his father with Sasuke's help. But Momoshiki survived long
enough to realize Boruto's full potential while warning him of future
tribulations. After recovering from his fight, Boruto decides to become
like his mentor, Sasuke in the future while entrusting Sarada to follow
her dream of becoming the next Hokage.
In his next mission, Boruto serves as a bodyguard for the Fire
Daimyo's son Tento with the two finding kinship in both wanting to be
acknowledged by their fathers. When a group of bandits known as the
Mujina kidnaps Tento, Boruto saves the boy with the group's leader
incarcerated due to having knowledge on the mark that Momoshiki placed
on Boruto. Naruto and the other learn there is a group called "Kara" (殻, lit. The Husk)
searching for people with the marks called Karma. Boruto's team meets
Kara's fugitive Kawaki. Kawaki becomes an adopted member of the Uzumaki
Family to protect him. However, when trying to protect the young man,
Naruto and Sasuke are defeated by the leader of Kara Jigen, with Jigen
sealing away Naruto while Sasuke escapes. Team 7 saves the Hokage when
Boruto's Karma causes him to be possessed by Momoshiki. After learning
of this, Sasuke discovers all Karma users will be taken over by the
Otsutsuki clan including Jigen. Meanwhile, a mutiny starts to form in
Kara, with Kashin Koji challenging Jigen while Amado goes to Konoha to
seek asylum in exchange for information, revealing that the real leader
of Kara is actually Isshiki Otsutsuki, who has been possessing Jigen
ever since he was betrayed by Kaguya when they came to Earth millenniums
ago and Karma allows the Otsutsuki clan to resurrect via the host's
body. Although Koji kills Jigen, forcing Isshiki to reincarnate
imperfectly and Kawaki's Karma was removed in process, Isshiki defeats
Koji before attacking Konoha.
Anime
Unlike the manga, after the flash-forward showing Kawaki the series
begins with Boruto attending the Hidden Leaf Village's Ninja Academy. He
awakens a special eye technique, which played a role in detecting
contaminated energy in certain people who turned violent. Mitsuki helped
in revealing their classmate and friend, Sumire, as the one responsible
for contaminating and draining people's chakras. This led to Boruto
trying to save Sumire from both Mitsuki and herself, and to bring her
back, having to travel between dimensions to do so.
Then Sarada has her own adventure where she searches for her father, Sasuke Uchiha, while helping him and Naruto save her mother Sakura from Shin Uchiha.
The Hidden Leaf students then go on a field trip to the Hidden
Mist Village where Boruto befriends a ninja named Kagura while stopping
an attempted coup by traditionalists.
Boruto and his class then graduate from the academy, being
assigned to Konohamaru Sarutobi with Sarada and Mitsuki and they and the
other teams begin having missions, one with Shikadai Nara befriending a criminal named Ryōgi.
The anime also retells the events of Boruto: Naruto the Movie with additional content that includes the antagonist Urashiki Otsutsuki.[3]
Following original arcs involve the search for Urashiki who wants to
take Naruto's chakra until Urashiki's death in the Time Slip arc.
