Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Volume 1

Written and Illustrated by Masashi Kishimoto

A manga for readers in grades 7 and up reviewed by Melissa

    

This manga is set many years after Naruto and Naruto Shippuden. Naruto Uzumaki, the main character of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden, was a young shinobi who dreamt of one day becoming the Hokage of Hidden Leaf Village. Naruto became Hidden Leaf Village's Hokage, but this series follows Boruto Uzumaki, who is Naruto's son.

Boruto depicts the lives of a new generation of future shinobi, as well as the hardships they must face to achieve their goals. Volume 1 introduces Boruto, who is perceived as a spoiled troublemaker. But, although he is seen negatively, Boruto is loyal. He is willing to do whatever it takes to keep people safe and stop them from being treated unfairly. In particular, he is willing to sacrifice a very important milestone in his life to keep his friend protected from harm.


I read this book because I was interested to see how the characters from Naruto and Naruto Shippuden changed years later. I also wanted to know how the Boruto manga differs from the anime. I liked how Boruto was written with similar characteristics to his father. Although Boruto is angered by his absence, he seems to have the same morals and values as Naruto when it comes to protecting people. I would highly recommend this manga to individuals who have watched the Naruto and Naruto Shippuden anime series, as well as those who have read the Naruto and Naruto Shippuden manga.
