‘Naruto' Creator Opens Up About Difficulties Making New 'Boruto' Series, Reveals Story Plans

The creator of the popular manga series, “Naruto” has sat down with Jump Fest 2017 for an interview and he has revealed details regarding the development of the “Boruto” spinoff series. “Boruto” is going to be adapted into an animated television series soon and Masashi Kishomoto has admitted that they are going through some difficulties making the spinoff series. In light of this confession, Masashi Kishomoto also talked about the plans they have for “Boruto”.

Masashi Kishomoto, the creator of the “Naruto” series went on to reveal what they have planned for the “Boruto” spinoff series. “Boruto” is a sequel and a spin-off series that stars the kids of the characters from the “Naruto” series, but of course the original characters of the latter series are still featured in their older years. Though Masashi Kishomoto is not the one primarily working on the “Boruto” manga series and anime adaptation, he is still part of the team so he still gets to make inputs on it.

He said his involvement was mainly based because the major part of the script is adapted from his creation, which is the “Naruto” series. He has revealed that he is having a pinch trying to make sure that “Boruto” is a different series from “Naruto”. He wanted to make the series a fun and light one even though the manga series started off with a rather dark story.

Aside from that, Masashi Kishomoto said that he is trying to find ways to ensure that “Boruto” and “Naruto” do not come out similar in terms of story and battles. He further divulged that he wanted to delve on the new characters he has yet to introduce in the new “Boruto” series and he is working on the drama that surrounds these characters. The said manga creator differentiated the main characters of the two series and said that unlike Naruto, Boruto was refined when it comes to dealing with things and actually crafty, knowing how things work out.

Fans of the “Naruto” series would know and approve to this comparison since Naruto is outspoken, who shouts out his feelings or when he is confronted with conflicts. Masashi Kishomoto said that he was not worried about having to surpass “Naruto” since he never expected the said series to become hugely popular, but he did want “Boruto” to become a series that did not repeat the same story or pattern as “Naruto”. He also wants that the children, who are the main characters of the “Boruto” series, do not become clones of their parents but instead be introduced with a whole new identity.

Masashi Kishomoto and his team are also worrying about how the story will progress especially when they were keen on making it a light and funny one. In the “Boruto” series, Naruto and Sasuke are shown to be very powerful, who encounter battles that get bigger and bigger, and having to incorporate the children within this plot, he is trying to come up with new ideas to do justice to the fighting scale of the series.

“Boruto” debuted in May 2016 as a manga series that starred Uzumaki Boruto, Uchiha Sarada, and Mitsuki. These three are the children of the renowned original characters from the “Naruto” series. The anime adaptation of “Boruto” is slated to premiere on TV Tokyo on April 2017.
