-NARUTO)NEXT GENERATIONS — ll Creator/Supervisor M@S@SHN MISRIMOUD 2c: Mikio Ikemoto scroe vy Ukyo KodachiDATAR Goruto is serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump, but is a special case, appearing only once a month. A weekly series is usually 19 pages per chapter, so monthly would be four times that, or about 76 pages. However, Boruto is 45 to 47 pages, only 60 percent of that. Still, it takes me about a week to produce the thumbnails, about 20 days to draw the final pages and then the rest of the time is spent on coloring and other tasks... So | end up using pretty much a whole month. It’s not something | asked for, and | have no idea whose decision it was, but | sure am glad Boruto is a monthly... -Mikio tkemoto, 2016 This era that we live in experiences daily change. When | was a kid, each house only had one phone, and it was not cordless. Video game consoles consisted of Famicom (NES), and the world was waging a mysterious “battle” called the Cold War. Today, the smartphone is commonplace and the internet is as ubiquitous as air. However, this too will likely become nostalgic history quite quickly. Boruto and his friends are striving in a world that is similarly evolving. Please enjoy their adventures! -Ukyo Kodachi, 2016-NARUTO/NEKT GENERATI( VOLUME 2 ‘SHONEN JUMP MANGA EDITION Creator/Supervisor MASASHI KISHIMOTO Art by MIKIO IKEMOTO Script by UKYO KODACHI Translation: Mari Morimoto Touch-up Art & Lettering: Snir Aharon Design: Alice Lewis Editor: Alexis Kirsch BORUTO © 2016 by Masashi Kishimoto, Ukyo Kadachi, Mikio Ikemoto Allrrights reserved.
