We all know that Mitsuki is the last work of Kishimoto for now and the next issue will be without him but his assistant. A story without it's soul is no longer the same as before. Even if some body suggest that new author will be much better than the old one, but does it really matter when you are reading the new story that is completely different than the old one even if it share the same back ground !
We have had enough of similiar stories in fanfiction section that is also based on same universe but no body really care for it cause it is not the "real" one. Even if Kishimoto gave the new author permission to continue his work but since their mind are not the same and the story direction is not based on Kishimoto's mind (or we can call it the main world where "reality" belong to !)

What do you guys think about this matter ?

Until he states he's doing another one-shot or collaborating on another movie- yes, this closes off the Naruto series from Kishimoto's end.

However, he did say that he wanted fans to consider the new Boruto manga as if it were his direct work despite it being created by Ikemoto. So, he gave it canon distinction in a way. Depends on how picky fans are and what they want to link to the storyline/consider true.

This. If I like the new manga, it's canon to me. If I don't, then nope.

I don't agree that Kishimoto is the soul of the manga. If he was, he was perfectly capable of draining that soul, so there's no reason someone else couldn't restore it.

If he screws up the story it has no soul, but it could still have soul with the new guy, he just needs to fix his characters faces.

What is the soul of the manga then?

The manga had soul in the VOTE 2 fight in my opinion.

I agree; in fact, the conversation Naruto and Sasuke have at the end of that fight is one of my favorite moments in the entire manga. But I think a lot of things that happened prior to Minato, Kakashi, and Obito working things out were soulless and dry, as was the Kaguya plot twist. And I can't stand Gaiden.

The soul of the manga appears whenever Kishi becomes more interested in the relationships between the characters than the fights themselves, or powering them up. Which is antithetical to a shounen manga, so it's unfortunate. Gaiden had to revive Uchiha wank in a way that wasn't really believable, and I think that contributed to the loss of soul too.

Even though Mitsuki's one-shot is disappointing to me, I do think the soul was back for it.

It's only canon if Sarada solos. An Uchiha that doesn't solo is never heard of in canon stories.

I agree that kishi is the soul of naruto manga I mean for any novel its writer is its soul...The new writer maybe be better than kishi or poor than kishi but he can't be kishi
Boruto manga is basically non-canon for me but its not like non-canon things are bad or something

Kishihomo is the type to say g*y shit like "only time can tell". So who knows.

The new manga is canon.


Judging by this Mitsuki one shot, Kishi needs a really long break from the series.
