Is this really happening? It would be really sad for all the Boruto fans if the news turns out to be true. The news comes from a reliable news source @AniNewsAndFacts. Boruto: Naruto Next Generations will go an indefinite hiatus from April 2023. This will happen after the release of Episode 293 of Boruto.
So far, 290 episodes of the anime have already been released. This means that there are only three more episodes left before the show decides to go on a hiatus. The final episode before hiatus will air on 26 March 2023, i.e., Sunday.
Schedule of remaining episodes of Boruto
- Episode 291, Control on March 12, 2023
- Episode 292, Craving on March 19, 2023
- Episode 293, Farewell on March 26, 2023
As the manga is going on a hiatus of three months long, the manga should have enough time to get three more chapters. Rumors have it that many officials of the animation studio wanted the hiatus to be as long as six months.
Everything has been decided, and the hiatus is inevitable. The only thing left now is an official announcement from Studio Pierrot.
