Cover of the upcoming #20 episode of boruto confirms what most fans had suspected: “Part 1” of the series is officially over, and the next time the Naruto sequel returns, it will have a skippable period. Much discussion is revealed from the very first chapter.
After Boruto episode #20 was released in Japan, the cover photos started going viral on the internet and fans immediately noticed the text at the bottom, which means “Part 1 is done”. The official Twitter account of the Naruto franchise also shared a post where, although the word “time skip” was not mentioned, it confirmed the ending of the first season of the series. Manga fans also take this as confirmation that, when Boruto returns from a hiatus, the much-discussed skipping time will finally happen.
Boruto season 1 has officially ended, which means Time Skip will appear in the next chapter
Boruto’s time-lapse is an event revealed since the first chapter of the manga, showing the main characters Boruto and Kawaki as adults, fighting against each other in a backward future where Konoha lies in rubble. Recent events in the series are slowly building on that scenario, with Kawaki attempting to kill Boruto to get rid of the Otsutsuki Momoshiki spirit inside him, then using Eida’s omnipotent power to swap roles. of them, leading everyone in the world to believe that he is the hero of Konoha and the son of Naruto, while Boruto is the pagan who betrayed the village.
Fortunately, there are two people who are immune to this power, Sumire and Sarada Uchiha. After Sarada awakened her Mangekyo Sharingan, she convinced her father Sasuke to save Boruto, and the pair fled. It’s very likely that, when the manga returns, the story will start after the time-skip, as Boruto had to spend several years training with Sasuke to gain the strength needed to stop Kawaki and bring things back to normal.
Boruto is a divisive series, with many fans seeing it as an unworthy successor to Naruto. It is true that the quality of the story is inconsistent, but the last few chapters shocked fans and pushed Boruto in the direction everyone wanted. Now that the end of Season 1 has been confirmed, when Boruto returns for Season 2 and the long-awaited period, it will have to live up to even higher expectations.
