Kishi only entered the stage after seiyus dubbed the Gaiden manga panels (Chie wasn't there, bur she recorded her parts). They talked about the movie and about the Comic Con (there were videos about it too, Kishi drawing Jiraiya, etc.) and Junko said Boruto and Sarada are popular in USA. After that, Junko started to talk about the news, people there were really happy about the new series, but after knowing Kishi wasn't the one drawing and writing, they were really sad and Junko tried to to cheer them up, somehow...

Kishui told about the Mitsuki oneshot and Sanpei started to talk as Boruto, complaing he isn't going to be the main character again (again, because Sanpei also said the same thing after the dub of the Gaiden painel, it was a joke, of course). Kishi replied with a "even the new series being called Boruto, he (Boruto) isn't going to have all spotlight, other chars are going to... so Junko asked for more spotlight to Gai, Kakashi and Tsunade, and Kishi was only agreeing/noding to them. They finished announcing the fillers, Itachi novel animated and the new game.

So the Main Characters aren't the star of the show! I feel a little bit relieved actually...

At this point what ever Kishi says is a joke. Cause he has often times contradicted himself.

But we all know that Boruto gonna have the last attack though. Wait..but then again, he wanna be like Sasuke. So he would be creating an opening for the star to land the last attack....Lovely.

Well considering that the series has many new side characters, it won't even feature Konohagakure all the time. Maybe.

I'm actually happy that he doesn't have the spotlight, if you have read my post before on the new series, it would be pretty bad to see Boruto as the Naruto of the series, because he isn't the hard worker, nor, does he gave a reason for the reader to follow him. He's end goal shouldn't be captilized to carry a short series, or a series at all. Though it would be interesting to follow, seeing how he can become a Shinobi like Sasuke.

Overall the decision is pretty good. I wanted Boruto to be like the Sasuke of the series, in the dark, while Sarada was carrying the series in the light, like Naruto.

But this is good too :bdpf:

This isn't the thread for this, tis why I made a thread on that comment specifically. Anyway, I'll respond clearly, it was confirmed by two sources. The one fluff found on twitter, and a Portuguese review from JF.

Both attended Jump Festa, if that wasn't already clear.

Ok. Well **** it, I'm still gonna read. I have to believe Kishi is doing more than tips. We'll see. Jump will release more information soon.

Kishi's also giving out tips, which basically means its up to the Boruto movie novel writer to listen to his advice.

Doesnt matter anyway.

If it's not Bolt, then who?
The spotlight is going to be shared evenly among all the characters.

That's what I'm gathering from the quote, "Kishi replied with a "even the new series being called Boruto, he (Boruto) isn't going to have all spotlight, other chars are going to"

Keyword on: All spotlight

Similar to One Piece for those who don't understand.

I can't wait to see Gai in action

Seriously though, there isn't much, if anything at all, to explore or develop with regarding Gai and Kakashi

Well those comments from the VA's.

Kishimoto just nodded with "yeah, you realize I'm not making this shit right"

lmao.
