That's really sad. Bad animation or whatever, I always admire their hard work effort. The schedule is unbelievable.

Truly tragic RIP. But I wonder why the overwork? What other reason could they have for them over working themselves? Unless the series is so bad they have no choice but to work ten times than normal to make it look good. Just my opinion Boruto is a horrible series and it should have never been made. 

 

Apparently dying from overwork is becoming common in Japan. Due to the typical Mindset of Japanese being Workaholics and "peer pressure" from the higher ups at their workplace forcing more responsibilities on them

The combination of East Asian work "ethic" and japan tend to go the extreme. It's one of the reason why they could be a economic power house in short time compare to south East Asian.

@touken
Is that a first week? How about the overall sales per volume?

This is a bazuba arc rehars. So expect it to have the same number of page with zabuza arc if not more. And we may see bakura perform sasuke "sacrifice" act since there are no sasuke in neo team seven. If not she will become slightly useful version of sakura and stand there.

I believe as of last week, the first volume sold just around 450,000. I don't know about the second one. The first couple of weeks show an over 50,000 drop.

Well it's a standard shonen manga selling, we should see the third volume and the volume when the anime airing. We shall see if the anime can generate enough viewer to make them afloat.

I will not surprise if the anime still airing as long as it has enough viewer.

Is it just me or are all the anime that tend to run all year round starting to fade out for the most part. Partially because this keeps happening in Japan.

 

He was under a lot of stress because Naruto was failing for years by that point in fact he probably died while working on the last episode judging by that date.

 

I partly think its due to the internet and fillers, thanks to the internet people and view multiple animes a lot more than they could on television, giving people a lot less patience for bad animation and the filler content with it.

Considering Naruto was WSJ's SECOND HIGHEST selling series, for Boruto to drop to a standard shonen manga series in terms of sales is bad, especially if there was more money put into investing the series than there is coming out, which may well be the case considering the kitten c#@% I'm seeing

Volume 3 does most likely come out next month so we got to see what happens... you know not that it really matters, but just to harken back to the good old days with the Volume covers, and just for fun who do you guys think will appear in the cover for Volume 3?

 

 

Boruto is obvious,  I do also  wanna say Naruto and Sasuke, and Momoshiki's new form. That's my guess.

I found the most hillarious thing at Half Price books! 

 

 

So Volume 1 of Boruto just hit the states last week, and I found a copy of it there, and inside was message from the person who bought it.. "I wasted my 20% coupon with my 10% membership from Barnes and Noble for a recap of a movie that's 70% of the volume.. What a joke! Knew I should've bought Blue Exorcist instead."  

[Bail o' Lies]

So he got to read the original material in that volume for free.

The person who returned it did the right thing and he's right he should have bought Blue Exorcist instead.

I'll translate it for you.

 

I'm the creator of Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto. Please watch/read Boruto as I have been working on them for a while. Do not let my endorsement such as My Hero Academia to beat me. I am working with Boruto, so it's the same as Naruto. From forced friendship to storylines, it's everything you love about Naruto. If you didn't like it, watch it for laughs and cringes.

 

Thank you and keep supporting. Because I am here to tell you in order for you to go wild that I even made this message. Now that I have accomplished this, I shall leave and never return, probably. Enjoy the series.

 

P.S. Sorry, Ishida Sui is not here.

I like to believe that.

[Phantom_999]

If that WERE the case, I'd tell him "EFF YOU!!!!! Boku no Hero Academia Is INFINITELY BETTER that your trash!!!!!!  It represents everything you USED TO stand for before you sold out  because you stopped caring about your series." Boruto is a speck of dirt that needs a microscope to be seen compared to the vast universe that is Boku no Hero Academia!!!!!

He didn't say that He's saying that he's excited for the Boruto manga and anime coming to the US and hoping to enjoy the next generation.
