A new poster has been released teasing the upcoming Kara arc for Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. The manga began in May 2016, written by Ukyō Kodachi and illustrated by Mikio Ikemoto and currently serialised in V Jump. The anime series began airing in April 2017.
The new poster teases the main characters facing off against the villainous group Kara which is led by its mysterious leader Jigen. Japanese voice actor Kenjiro Tsuda (Attack on Titan, My Hero Academia, One Punch Man) has been confirmed for the voice of Jigen. Tsuda commented the following.
Kenjiro Tsuda (Voicing: Jigen) | Comment
“I am very happy to get the chance to be involved with Boruto. I want to put my all into this role to elevate what’s I felt was great about Jigen in the manga. I hope you will continue to support the series, and Jigen too. I’m really looking forward to the voice recording sessions.”
Masayuki Kouda (Director) | Comment
After discussions with the supervisor Abe and the sound director Nakura over the period of one or two months, we decided to request Kenjiro Tsuda for the role of Jigen. The biggest deciding factor was how awesome his voice is. He can get across a really scary tone, the kind that if you hear it you freeze and can’t do anything, and you’re defeated.”

Anly’s new song VOLTAGE will serve as the new ending theme song for the TV Tokyo anime series Boruto. This will be the second time that Anly has teamed up with the Naruto series, having previously performed the opening theme Kara no Kokoro from Naruto Shippuden. The track has been streamed over 20 million times globally.
Comment from Anly
It’s been a long time since I’ve worked with the Naruto series, and I’m deeply moved to be returning to contribute. VOLTAGE is a song meant to cheer people up and to inspire friends to overcome anything standing in their way. While it’s similar in many ways to Kara no Kokoro, I feel like this is even cooler than Boruto’s dad’s song! I hope everyone enjoys it. The new ending theme song will premiere with the new episode of Boruto airing on TV Tokyo on January 9, 2022.©岸本斉史 スコット／集英社・テレビ東京・ぴえろ Information
