Naruto’s New Anime Will Officially Prove Haters Wrong

by

The Naruto series has faced criticism lately, but the new Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is expected to change that. Much of the negativity has been directed at the Boruto series itself. While there were valid reasons for its unpopularity, the biggest issue was the way the anime was made – a change in the overall feel of the show combined with poor production quality really turned viewers away.

It was always going to be challenging to follow up Naruto with Boruto: Naruto Next Generation, especially since the new series focused on a fresh group of young ninja. Unfortunately, the anime adaptation made things worse by including a lot of unnecessary filler episodes. While anime often adds original content, Boruto went overboard – 80 chapters of the original manga stretched into an impressive 293 episodes.

Look, even as a big Naruto fan, it was tough getting through all those filler episodes. Honestly, the online backlash has been intense, with a lot of people saying Boruto completely ruined the whole franchise. But I’m still hopeful! Studio Pierrot seems determined to turn things around with the next part of Boruto. The Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga is already showing they’re learning from past mistakes, and I think it’s going to be a real improvement.

Two Blue Vortex Has Been A Huge Improvement Over Boruto

While the Boruto manga wasn’t as flawed as its anime counterpart – mainly because it avoided excessive filler – the change in direction and overall feel from Naruto: Shippuden was still a problem. After spending so much time watching the original characters develop from kids into strong adults, it felt disappointing to start all over again with a new generation. The strongest parts of the Boruto manga were the chapters that focused on Naruto’s era, as those offered the most exciting action and satisfying storylines. The more lighthearted, childish adventures of Boruto and his peers just didn’t quite deliver the same impact.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex marks a significant step forward for the series. Similar to how Shippuden gained momentum after a time skip and introduced more powerful characters, this new arc explores the consequences of major developments for the cast. The storytelling is now more mature and action-packed, the characters are more compelling and experienced, and the conflicts feel more important. It’s a darker, more exciting direction that promises a much stronger anime adaptation.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Needs To Become An Anime Soon

The Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga began in 2023, and an anime series was announced soon after. While it’s definitely going to happen, the exact release date is still unknown. The animation studio Pierrot estimates it will arrive sometime between late 2026 and early 2027, so fans will have to be patient. However, there’s already plenty of exciting news and hints to look forward to before then.

Pierrot, the animation studio, has announced that the new Boruto: Two Blue Vortex series will be more focused and efficient than the previous one. Unlike Boruto: Naruto Next Generation, the new show will only adapt content directly from the manga – meaning no filler episodes. This is a big change not only for the Boruto series, but for the Naruto franchise as a whole, and anime adaptations in general. Two Blue Vortex will accomplish this by releasing episodes seasonally, instead of the usual weekly format.

A lot of today’s most successful anime series are released in seasons, a big change from the past. Previously, anime would air a new episode every week, often quickly catching up to the original manga. This meant shows frequently needed ‘filler’ episodes to buy time until the manga had enough new content. Now, popular series like Jujutsu Kaisen and Demon Slayer release a season of episodes and then take a year or two off, which allows them to stay ahead of the manga and avoid needing filler.

With over 30 chapters available, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex provides ample material for the first season of the anime. This new seasonal format isn’t just good for storytelling; it’s expected to breathe new life into the Naruto franchise and address the criticisms of the previous Boruto: Naruto Next Generation series.

The Two Blue Vortex Anime Can Finally Redeem Boruto

As a long-time anime fan, I keep seeing the negativity towards Boruto even with the Two Blue Vortex manga getting some buzz. It makes you wonder, if the manga is genuinely good, why isn’t it fixing Boruto‘s image? I think it’s pretty simple, really. Manga just doesn’t reach as many people as the anime does. While Two Blue Vortex has its dedicated fans, a lot of us who grew up with Naruto and gave Boruto a chance before losing interest probably don’t even know the new manga exists. It’s a reach problem, plain and simple.

The new anime series has the potential to be very popular. The well-known Naruto brand should ensure Boruto: Two Blue Vortex gets widespread promotion. With plenty of chances for new viewers to start watching, and a more modern, mature style, it’s likely to grab people’s attention. However, impressive visuals and a darker tone aren’t enough on their own. Two Blue Vortex needs to be a stronger series than Boruto: Naruto Next Generation was.

The reason Boruto: Naruto Next Generation didn’t succeed isn’t because the Naruto world has run out of stories – it has endless potential. The show simply became difficult to enjoy. However, if Boruto: Two Blue Vortex lives up to its promises, it could not only redeem the previous installments but also revitalize the Naruto franchise and prove wrong those who thought its future was over.
