Original Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto will be taking over writing duties for Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, and fans have been worried about what this means for Sarada Uchiha. It was officially announced recently that original franchise creator Kishimoto would be handling the writing and storyboarding duties for the manga from Chapter 53 of the series on, and many fans have had conflicted feelings over the departure of previous series writer Ukyo Kodachi. But what there seemed to be a major concern is how Kishimoto will be writing the series‘ female characters like Sarada.

Although Naruto‘s female characters are some of the most notable characters in the franchise overall, fans are taking Kishimoto’s return to mean that many of the creator’s quirks will be introduced to the sequel. This includes quirks such as sidelining many of the female characters in the series in favor of focusing more on series’ leads like Boruto and Kawaki.
It’s truly a complicated situation as it’s not quite clear how much influence Kishimoto has had in the writing of the Boruto sequel to date, and how much his direct involvement will change the series’ tone and dialogue going forward. Read on to see how fans are worrying about Sarada with Kishimoto’s return, and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Let’s Not Lose Hope!
I found out that Kishimoto will now fully write Boruto manga script and Kodachi will leave.

Kishi definitely writes the plot and villains better but Kodachi made the females stronger.
I just don’t want SARADA to get ruined by kishi.
Let’s hope for the best!
Well…
why are we acting like Kodachi wrote women any better than Kishimoto as if Sarada hasnโt been in her hospital bed since March

Will This Actually Be Better for Sarada?
Kishimoto gives Uchihas lots of screen time

Kishimoto gives female characters less screen time

Either Way, There’s Always the Anime!
IMO Anime Sarada is better than Both Kishimoto’s(Sarada Gaiden) and Kodachi’s(Boro fight) Sarada. Her anime self has much more relevance, fights, great moments, and development than kishi’s and kodachi’s. So if anything anime sarada will still be on Good hands. ๐ฅ pic.twitter.com/wSnTP1TtGq
