Naruto fans can rejoice, even though the manga has ended its run, their favorite ninja won't be gone forever. "The Last: Naruto the Movie" will not be the last film for Naruto. There will be a  new Naruto movie and it is going to hit the theaters next year.

Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of the Naruto manga, has just announced at the end of "The Last: Naruto the Movie" screening that he is conceiving ideas and concepts for a new Naruto Movie. While the focus of the recent movie is the battle against Toneri Otsutsuki and the relationship of Naruto and Hinata, Kishimoto wants to take a different course and change the perspective of the fans in the sequel to the latest Naruto movie. Christian Today reports, citing sources.

According to Latin Times, the story line of the Naruto movie sequel will revolve around the son of Bolt, Naruto and Hinata's son. It will also involve Sarada, which is the daughter of Sakura and Sasuke.

The creator of the hit Manga will serve as the chief production supervisor for the new Naruto movie as reported by Anime News Network. Kishimoto further said that," I conceived a story in which Bolt and Sarada appears," he also made plans on what will be Bolt's fighting techniques. The Mangaka even joked that "Even though the manga ended, I haven't taken a break," as reported by the site.

Indeed, the success of Naruto goes beyond its weekly issues in Shonen Jump. It has branched out to anime series, film, games and merchandise. It has also become a culture to its large fan base and now they still want more from Naruto and they hunger for more action from its Universe.

The upcoming Naruto Movie sequel, which will continue the legacy of Naruto, will tell the story of Bolt and Sarada. It is slated to be released in August 2015 according to Anime News Network. Hopefully, its creator won't lose his creativity in developing further the story and entertain his fans for years to come.
