The creative duo behind Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, Masashi Kishimoto and Mikio Ikemoto, were recently invited to the annual event held in France for Naruto's franchise, 'Nuit à Konoha', where they were interviewed about the sequel and their mindsets as creators.
The interviews cited below have been translated by fans of the series, so there may be some inaccuracies. How their situations contrast so deeply was addressed by Ikemoto when asked about Boruto's evolution as a main character in comparison with the evolution of his father, Naruto. As Boruto experiences this process, he becomes a better protagonist. This was reflected in the reception for the first chapters of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, where the protagonist comes back as a gritty, no-nonsense shinobi with great powers and unbreakable determination. Fans and critics were both positively impressed, especially by the maturation of the protagonist.
The motivation of Naruto, not fighting for simple recognition nor defeating the enemy physically but ideologically, is one of the best aspects of the series. So, Boruto being in a situation where he has to improve himself and become stronger, not only to regain his identity but also to reach Kawaki, who he still considers his friend and a member of his family, was necessary for him to achieve his potential.
Mikio Ikemoto: In the Naruto-Sasuke and Boruto-Kawaki relationships, each one is a rival to the other to assert their worth. However, their opposition is very different. In Naruto, the protagonist is constantly in opposition in which he expresses and conveys what he feels to Sasuke. By doing this, he evolves as a protagonist.
