Naruto fans Masashi Kishimoto 's return to the world of manga . Since the end of the work that marked generations, many believed that the author would eventually create a new project. After a period of rest, Kishimoto launched Samurai 8 , but the work failed to win over the public and was prematurely ended by Shonen Jump .

After Samurai 8, Kishimoto became more reserved. However, in recent interviews, the author confirmed that he plans to write a new manga . He stated that time spent with his family has served as inspiration for his next creation. Therefore, Kishimoto's return to Jump seems only a matter of time.
Furthermore, he revealed that he intends to explore themes such as pressure, expectations, and family legacy —issues he also addressed in crucial moments in Naruto's story. Therefore, fans can expect a more reflective and personal plot, directly inspired by his own life journey.
It may be linked to the Naruto universe
Although Kishimoto hasn't confirmed details, he made it clear that he wants to reuse ideas and feelings he already conveyed in Naruto Uzumaki . Therefore, there's a good chance the new project will be connected to the franchise's universe, perhaps exploring the gap between the end of Naruto Shippuden and the beginning of Boruto.
On the other hand, this possibility also rekindles the hope of fans to see a narrative different from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex , which still divides opinions. If the new manga truly delves into the Naruto universe, it will be an opportunity to revitalize the franchise and recapture the essence that won over millions of readers.
Fan expectations
Finally, even without an official date, the confirmation that Kishimoto is already working on new ideas is enough to excite the community. Meanwhile, fans continue to follow Boruto, whose next chapter will be released on September 19, 2025 on Manga Plus Shonen Jump app .
