Boruto Episode 294 did not air on April 2, 2023, and left fans disappointed. The preceding episode marked the end of the first part of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. The fans were anticipating the second part but it never came.
Boruto Episode 294: What Lies Ahead?
The conclusion of part one of Boruto was not without excitement. The last two episodes had great production. The first part ended with an intriguing moment where Boruto and Kawaki made significant vows on the Hokage rock heads. While some important manga panels were left out, this ending left avid fans eager for Boruto’s story ahead.
Although most fans are finding the wait hard, this might be for the better. A lot of filler episodes were being included in part one. This break might mean that the next part will focus more on the content in the manga.
A lot of fans expect, in accordance with manga, the Boruto and Kawaki fight scene that involves a time skip at the beginning of part two, but it is likely that episode 294 will continue right from where it was left in the first part.
Boruto Episode 294: When Can Release Be Expected?
The second part of Boruto: The Next Generation is already in production as confirmed by an official announcement but a release date is yet to be announced. Since then, Naruto has celebrated its 20th anniversary with a special episode, Road to Naruto, to celebrate Naruto’s 20 years of journey.
