As everyone is aware, there were a lot of expectations and eagerness among Naruto fans over the announcement (the overhyped jump festa Naruto announcement). The 20th anniversary trailer's release mirrored their bias. Some predicted a remake of Naruto, while others predicted a video game. Despite the fact that Boruto is doing incredibly well and earning a ton of money, some people actually thought the show would be canceled. Hey, folks, Jump Festa has already happened, and some Naruto fans have already experienced a reality check due to their disappointment over the announcement.
First, let's quickly recap the key components of this "amazing" Naruto revelation. So, this announcement can be divided into three categories.
-The announcement of the Code arc
-The adaptation of Sasuke Retsuden Light Novel in Boruto
-Naruto Top 99 Poll
These are three major announcements, the first of which is the code arc, which will take place in February 2023. We all know that the code arc, which is presently the only other manga canon arc that exists, is one of the most eagerly anticipated arcs in Boruto. Second, the Sasuke Retsuden novel, which has already been turned into a manga, will be included in the Boruto anime beginning in January 2023, which is a significant victory for Naruto fans who are in need of new material. The winning character in the Naruto Top 99 vote will then get the opportunity to star in their own manga. Are Naruto fans' disappointment with the announcement, then, really justified? Let's discuss that.
Fans of Naruto should feel let down for a number of reasons. First of all, why would the developers release a teaser with magnificent modern-day animation from the original program if they weren't really planning to reproduce it? A special announcement (based on Naruto) planned for December just made things worse. That merely increased fan excitement, which causes disappointment. Therefore, certainly, they should feel let down. It was difficult to avoid being let down after all the anticipation that was spread around the Internet.
Second, their dissatisfaction should be understood given that the announcement wasn't even primarily focused on Naruto. Despite being a Naruto announcement, it is clear that the announcement was Boruto-centric. Fans simply wanted more Naruto rather than Boruto, which enraged many people, especially Naruto fans who despise Boruto (Some genuinely hate Boruto)

Okay, there are a few reasons why they should be unhappy, but in all honesty, fans of Naruto shouldn't be. A Naruto remake while Boruto is still in production? What did they expect? That is absurd. Remaking a show while its sequel is still running and popular would be a terrible idea that would cost the studio time and money. Do Naruto fans truly believe that Studio Pierrot, the studio that put bleach on a more than ten-year hiatus, can support both a Naruto remake and a Boruto at the same time?! Some fans think that if Boruto were canceled, a remake would follow, but why would the studio cancel such a profitable show
Even if Naruto wasn't given much attention in the announcement, fans shouldn't be unhappy. Out of that, the Naruto top 99 poll was launched. Its significance may be unnoticed by certain fans, yet it exists. Consider this: Every character (canon) who receives the most votes receives their own manga. This is like a dream come true, and the writers are ready to push it because the Sasuke Retsuden manga adaptation was successful (at least, it was successful online). There are numerous, limitless opportunities, and favorite characters might even have their own manga.
From the above, we have provided both reasons for and against why fans should be unhappy, but in general, fans shouldn't be disappointed. Yeah, it's fantastic to have high hopes for a thing you adore, but it's best to face reality first before making irrational assumptions.
