Synopsis:
Boruto: Naruto Next Generation is the sequel to the acclaimed Naruto story, which introduces Boruto Uzumaki, son of the seventh Hokage of Aldeia da Folha, Naruto Uzumaki. The new protagonist feels a certain resentment that his father always puts the village before his family. But, even bothered by his father's attitudes, Boruto decides to follow the path of a ninja. He joins the team led by Konohamaru, Naruto's former disciple, along with Sarada Uchiha, daughter of Sakura and Sasuke, and Mitsuki, son of Orochimaru. The new team 7 embarks on several missions until they cross paths with Kawaki, the mysterious boy connected to Boruto's future.
Ukyo Kodachi and Mikio Ikemoto launched the Boruto manga in May 2016 in Weekly Shonen Jump, being published monthly in the magazine. The manga then moved to Shueisha's V Jump magazine in July 2019. Masashi Kishimoto took over the project as the manga's writer in November 2020.
Finally, Boruto: Naruto Next Generations also got an anime in April 2017, but went on hiatus in March 2023 to prepare the second phase of the story.
