**Boruto: Naruto Next Generations picks up in a peaceful Hidden Leaf where Naruto's son has to live with a famous family name and a father whose duties reach far beyond home. Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Netflix carry the series. This is a substantial commitment at 293 episodes, but its arc-based structure makes it practical to watch in stretches instead of racing to the finish.

It suits viewers who want a long continuation of the Naruto story and enjoy watching a new cast develop within a familiar setting.**

## Synopsis

Peace has changed daily life in the Hidden Leaf, but it has not made growing up simple for Boruto. He wants to prove that his ability belongs to him, rather than being treated as an extension of Naruto's reputation. His path brings him together with Sarada Uchiha, who has ambitions of her own, and the enigmatic Mitsuki. As they learn what being shinobi means in a modernizing village, old consequences begin pressing against the calm their parents fought to create. The series follows the younger generation through training, missions, rivalries, and conflicts that test what they have inherited.
