Anime | Manga Naruto "Next Generation" Countdown Website
Firaga posted a topic in General Discussion
http://www.shonenjump.com/next_generation/ Out of seemingly nowhere, Shuiesha and Weekly Shonen Jump magazine has launched a countdown website obviously related to the Naruto series featuring silhouettes of Naruto's son Boruto alongside Sasuke and Sakura's daughter Sarada and the new Ino-Shika-Cho. The website teases a new project relating to the Boruto story and is counting down to the reveal set on December 19th, also the first day of the upcoming Jump Festa convention where there will be a Naruto stage event the very same day as well. Keep in mind, this is being orchestrated by the owners/publishers of the Naruto manga, not by Studio Pierrot i.e. the animators for Naruto Shippuden. Many have speculated in the past that after Shippuden finishes the remaining content from the original Naruto manga, they will start a Boruto story arc, but this cannot be the case here as the countdown to the project will happen while Shippuden will still be running their current filler arc and still not finished adapting the end of the Naruto story. During the run of Boruto: Naruto The Movie, the creator of Naruto Mashashi Kishimoto has directly stated that he wants to move on from the Naruto franchise and start a new project sometime in the near future, so it's more than likely that this project is solely being headed by Shuiesha and Weekly Shonen Jump, while of course still bearing approval from the author himself as it is the standard. So what exactly is this new project? A new manga series akin to Naruto Gaiden? Possibly taking place after the events of the recent film? Or maybe it might be something else entirely? Whatever it is, the recent Boruto film's success has proven that expanding more on this newly established portion of the franchise has high possibilities for more success in the future.- 1 reply
