The Boruto manga series is back in action after a three-month hiatus, and fans are rejoicing over the thrilling comeback. After the highly-anticipated timeskip designs of the main characters were leaked as spoilers, fans were eagerly awaiting the official release of Chapter 81, and it did not disappoint.
However, the surge in excitement led to a brief hiccup as Manga Plus, the online manga reading platform launched by Shuiehsa, struggled to handle the sudden influx of readers eager to consume the new chapter. Many users reported difficulties with app crashes and loading issues. Thankfully, these problems were resolved after a short inconvenience.

This wasn’t the first time Boruto caused Manga Plus servers to crash, as a similar incident occurred with Chapter 51, featuring Naruto’s Baryon Mode.
The timeskip in the story has reignited the passion of Boruto fans, especially with Naruto playing a significant role, and his life hanging in the balance in an alternate dimension. This development has even piqued the interest of fans of the original Naruto series.
Interestingly, Boruto Part 2, titled “Boruto Two Blue Vortex,” will be a separate manga, unlike Naruto and Naruto Shippuden, which were part of a continuous series. The story is currently at a critical juncture, with Shikamaru assuming the role of the 8th Hokage and Naruto allegedly killed by Boruto, who is now a fugitive pursued by the Shinobi world.
The excitement continues to build as the next chapter focuses on the long-awaited reunion of Boruto, Mitsuki, and Sarada after four years, following a dramatic rescue and the stage set for an intense battle. The Boruto manga’s popularity is evident as it climbs the Manga Plus rankings, with Chapter 81 being read by over 200,000 fans within 24 hours of release, currently sitting at number 12 and expected to break into the top 10 soon.
