It is still not clear why the company is withholding information about the production, which has spurred a series of fan theories.
Among the suggestions, the public points out that Shueisha may have restarted the series with changes in scripts and creative teams – or possibly underwent a studio change.
It is worth noting that the new project also celebrates the 50th anniversary of the founding of Pierrot Studio, but Shueisha has never confirmed that the new episodes of Naruto would repeat the partnership.
The plot of the chapters has also not been officially disclosed, indicating that it has not yet been decided by the company.
Furthermore, Pierrot is expected to be responsible for the second part of Boruto, as well as prioritizing the production of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War.
