The Boruto anime could be telling original stories for quite some time, and Vessel Arc will take place relatively soon on the pages of its manga
Manga are comics or graphic novels created in Japan or by creators in the Japanese language, conforming to a style developed in Japan in the late 19th century. They have a long and complex pre-history in earlier Japanese art.
They wont likely meet up because in this case boruto manga is Canon, first the manga comes and then anime, it used to be same with the naruto series also and besides that making anime is a bit time taking compared to the manga so there will be a gap. What manga chapter is the Boruto anime on?
First issue was released in may 2016 a few weeks after the release of Kishimoto’s special one-shot. Most of the main character were introduced by kishimoto in his naruto manga and special one-shots. The series is actually a story after naruto manga ended. Although its first chapters are retelling Is Naruto really dead in Boruto manga?
You should probably watch Boruto from the start. Though it happens in the movie but it still feels better when you watch from the start and it is also not that much. There are only just 68 episodes in total released until now. You can binge watch them in like 2 days.
While sales of the paper manga may be getting less, the Boruto manga is growing rapidly. Maybe not hard copy sales but tbh far less ppl read the hard copies as much as the online version. Many get them just for show. But the stores popularity is really picking up in the Naruto community.
Short answer: the manga is one arc ahead of the anime.
If we talk about the continuation of manga canon episodes, it will probably start in Late 2022 or Mid 2023.
Boruto: Naruto Next Generations anime will not get Boruto Shippuden as “Shippuden,” meaning strong wind, relates to Naruto only. Although, following the same pattern Boruto might get Boruto: Raiden, which means thunder.
As of January 30, 2022, the Boruto anime has released 234 episodes, with only 80 of them being manga canon. A whopping 165 episodes are filler, meaning that seventy percent of the entire anime consists of just filler content.
