It looks like 'Boruto' has some really big plans in store for the new year. For what seemed like the longest time, the 'Naruto fandom was deprived of any update on Boruto. During its 100+ episode run, the manga series has had several ups and down leading to fans have some real serious questions about the sequel - no one could understand why the show chose to steer away from the manga. Added to that is that fans felt the anime was not going anywhere especially by adding irrelevant content to the storyline.

With a new poster now surfacing online, fans note the improvement and are welcoming the update - the Internet is buzzing since the poster of 'Boruto's arc went live with a Mujina Bandit twist.

The Mujina Bandits arc is set to happen sometime in January 2020, according to OrganicDinosaur. This is contrary to fans' prediction that the arc will take place in April 2020.

With a short arc spanning over three chapters, it is likely that it'll be wrapped up in 5-6 chapters. Fans will see Boruto Uzumaki and his team hunt the Mujina Bandits, led by a notorious ninja named Shohoji. Two days ago,'Boruto's writer Ukyou Kodachi took to Twitter to tease the upcoming series. "The future of the 'Boruto' anime is going to become even more interesting!" he wrote. "It's amazing. I got the screenplays and cannot stop smiling. Enjoy it!" 

Fans couldn't have been more excited since the update. "Boruto in 2020 the Anime will get into the MANGA storyline  

'This confirms it I'm ready for it to begin after the Arc we just had with Young Naruto and Jiraiya I hella loved that arc," said a fan. "Boruto got more drip than Naruto ever had, to be honest," said another.
