If Kishimoto's gonna focus on the new gen then I'm curious how the story will develop. I like and welcome the idea but won't get my hopes up too much in case nothing happens. xD
Kishi himself said that he is out. He even didn't want to write a story about Boruto...
Q: Boruto also inherited Naruto's optimistic attribute. Lots of ppl on the internet are voicing our their wish to see a new Naruto story w/ Boruto as the MC
A: But I always wanted to draw Naruto's growth. If I start a new story with Boruto as the MC, it'll be repeating the same thing I did with Naruto. It's hard for me to accept that. In my heart, a voice kept telling me that if I dont draw some new materials it'll be meaningless...something like that.
