Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Part 2 release date speculation, latest news
Everything you need to know about when new episodes might be released.
Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto is one of the most iconic manga series ever produced, setting the standard for the shonen genre.
Unsurprisingly, new spin-offs and adaptations are arriving all the time, with Boruto: Naruto Next Generations one of Naruto's many anime spin-offs.
Focusing on the adventures of Naruto's son Boruto, this anime series debuted back in 2017. The first part ran for an impressive 293 episodes - but the most recent episode aired in March 2023, prompting speculation about when (or if) the show will continue.
Back in 2023, the social media accounts for Boruto: Naruto Next Generations confirmed that episode 293 marked the end of "part 1", so it makes sense for there to be a hiatus between instalments.
But while part 2 is supposedly in the works, its future is still rather murky.
Read on to learn more about Boruto: Naruto Next Generations part 2!
Will there be a Boruto: Naruto Next Generations part 2?
Following the conclusion of Boruto part 1, Naruto fans are eagerly awaiting updates on when the story will continue.
We do know that part 2 is supposedly in the works, but the show's creators haven't shared any news since the last episode aired in 2023.
One of the biggest questions here is how part 2 will adapt its source material. The Boruto manga is still ongoing, so the anime's creative team must figure out how to adapt recent storylines as the show catches up with new chapters.
Part 2 will likely cover the Two Blue Vortex story arc, which began in February 2024, and marks a new era for Boruto.
When will Boruto: Naruto Next Generations part 2 be released?
Boruto fans should temper their expectations, because we clearly have a while to wait before new episodes arrive.
With no new announcements about Boruto: Naruto Next Generations part 2, the anime surely won't air any new episodes in 2024 or the first half of 2025. However, a late 2025 release is still possible!
In the meantime, we'll keep an eye out for Boruto news and keep this article updated with any announcements.
