There is also an expectation for the series to delve deeper into the characters. Fans are hoping that they will get to see more development on the new manga's characters, in order to create a connection with the audiences. Along with that, the manga is also expected to present intriguing antagonists that can challenge the several characters of the story.
Besides the new manga, Kishimoto recently hinted at the idea of an upcoming movie for the franchise. During an interview with the Anime News Network, Kishimoto acknowledged the fact that Boruto had opened opportunities for another spin-off movie.
He stated, "There are infinite possibilities right now. If I decide that I want to do more Naruto stories, perhaps I will, perhaps I won't. That said, there is nothing firmly in the works at this time. Just that there is always the possibility. I suppose one possibility would be to write the story from Sasuke's perspective, or even the mentors, the teachers, especially like Jiraiya, because there's a general difference there too."
