What happens

Boruto is a Japanese anime television series based on the manga series Boruto by Ukyō Kodachi and Mikio Ikemoto and supervised by Masashi Kishimoto. It is a sequel to the anime series Naruto (2002–2007) and Naruto: Shippuden (2007–2017). The series follows the exploits of Naruto Uzumaki's son Boruto and his ninja team. It was produced by Pierrot and aired for 293 episodes on TV Tokyo from April 2017 to March 2023; a second part was announced to be in development. Unlike the manga, which began as a retelling of Boruto: Naruto the Movie (2015), the anime begins as a prequel set before Boruto and his friends become ninjas in a later story arc.
