Count of Boruto Films: Delving into the Cinematic Universe of Boruto
The world of Naruto is set to continue its epic journey with the return of the popular series, now titled Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. This new chapter follows the original series, Naruto, Naruto Shippuden, The Last: Naruto the Movie, and Boruto: Naruto the Movie, which introduced us to Boruto Uzumaki, Naruto's son, and his generation of ninja.
Before diving into the new series, it's worth revisiting Boruto: Naruto the Movie, released in 2015. The film, which bridges the gap between the original Naruto story and the Boruto era, centres around the Chunin Exams, a competition where young ninja test their skills. The movie showcases Boruto's humbling experience and recognition of his father's strength, as well as his struggle with his father's absence and his desire for his approval.
Boruto: Naruto the Movie also established the core themes and conflicts that drive the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations series. One of the most significant threats introduced in the movie is the powerful duo of Momoshiki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki. Their arrival marks a new challenge for the ninja world, a challenge that continues to unfold in the ongoing series.
The movie's storyline also sets the stage for the familial relationships and complexities that are central to the series. Boruto's relationships with his father, Naruto, his friends, and his mentor, Sasuke, are all explored in depth, adding layers of depth to the narrative.
For those who haven't had the chance to watch Boruto: Naruto the Movie, it's now available for digital purchase on various online retailers. DVD and Blu-ray copies are also available for purchase from various retailers. The events of the movie are re-adapted in the first few episodes of the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations anime series, which is currently the primary vehicle for continuing the story beyond the movie.
As of now, there are no officially announced plans for a direct sequel movie specifically titled "Boruto". However, fans can continue to follow the story in the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations anime series and manga, which are available for streaming on platforms like Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Funimation (availability may vary depending on the region and platform). Whether you're a long-time Naruto fan or new to the series, Boruto: Naruto Next Generations promises to deliver exciting new adventures in the world of Naruto.
