Boruto: Naruto Next Generations follows Boruto Uzumaki, the son of Naruto, who is now the Seventh Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village. Konoha has become a modern city with trains, big screens and video games, and many of the kids are children of the original Naruto cast. Boruto trains in Team 7 with Sarada Uchiha and Mitsuki under their teacher Konohamaru, while Sasuke becomes his personal mentor. Their classmates include the next Ino-Shika-Cho trio: Shikadai, Inojin and Chōchō. Later the story brings in Kawaki, a boy who comes to live with Boruto's family, and the secret group Kara. This page covers 14 characters from the TV anime, with their role, personality and key relationships, described as they first appear and without spoilers. Japanese voice actors are listed for each; Brazilian dub voices are left out because no source checked for this page names the full cast.
The title character and Naruto's eldest son. Boruto is talented and quick to learn, but at the start he resents his father for spending more time on Hokage duties than at home. He is cocky, likes video games and pranks, and hates being seen only as the Hokage's son. He joins Team 7 and later asks Sasuke to train him. Over the series he grows into a more serious ninja who protects his friends.
Sarada Uchiha is the daughter of Sasuke and Sakura and a member of Team 7. She is smart, level-headed and often the one who keeps Boruto in check. Her dream is to become Hokage herself, and she studies hard to earn it. She wears glasses and, like her father, can awaken the Sharingan. Early in the anime she sets out to learn more about Sasuke, who has been away from home for years.
Mitsuki is the third member of Team 7, a calm and polite boy with pale skin and golden eyes who came to Konoha from outside the village. He can stretch his arms to grab things far away and uses snake techniques. He speaks in a flat, curious way and is still learning how people feel. He decides that Boruto is his 'sun' and chooses to follow him.
Kawaki is a quiet, distrustful boy who carries a mark on his hand similar to the one Boruto has. After he is found in the hands of a dangerous group, Naruto takes him into the Uzumaki home, where he slowly gets used to family life with Hinata and Himawari. He clashes with Boruto at first but comes to admire Naruto deeply. He becomes a central figure in the later arcs.
Konohamaru Sarutobi is the grandson of the Third Hokage and the jonin leader of the new Team 7. As a kid in the original series he called Naruto his rival; now he is an adult teacher who still looks up to him. He is cheerful, a little clumsy and very protective of his students. His best-known technique is the Rasengan, which he learned from Naruto himself.
Sasuke Uchiha is Naruto's old rival and best friend, the husband of Sakura and father of Sarada. He spends most of his time travelling far from the village on a long mission, which is why Sarada barely knows him at the start. Boruto asks him for training, and Sasuke becomes his mentor, teaching him discipline rather than shortcuts. He is reserved and serious but cares about the next generation.
Naruto Uzumaki is the hero of the original series and now the Seventh Hokage, leader of the Hidden Leaf. He is married to Hinata and is the father of Boruto and Himawari. As Hokage he is still friendly and approachable, but his workload keeps him away from home, which strains his bond with his son at the start of the story. He also takes Kawaki into his family. He remains one of the strongest ninja alive.
Hinata Uzumaki, born into the Hyuga clan, is Naruto's wife and the mother of Boruto and Himawari. She is gentle and patient, and keeps the family home steady while Naruto works long hours as Hokage. She uses the Byakugan and the Gentle Fist fighting style. She is one of the few people Boruto never talks back to, and she welcomes Kawaki into the house with kindness.
Shikadai Nara is the son of Shikamaru and Temari and one of Boruto's closest friends from the academy. Like his father he seems lazy, finds most things a drag and is very smart, and he often plays video games with Boruto. He uses his clan's shadow techniques. He forms the new Ino-Shika-Cho trio with Inojin and Chōchō, carrying on the tradition of the three families.
Inojin Yamanaka is the son of Ino and Sai and part of the new Ino-Shika-Cho trio with Shikadai and Chōchō. He takes after his father with ink-drawn creatures that come to life, and after his mother with his clan's mind techniques. He is blunt and often says what others are thinking without any filter, which gets him into arguments, especially with Boruto.
Chōchō Akimichi is the daughter of Chōji and Karui and the third member of the new Ino-Shika-Cho trio. She is confident, loud and loves snacks and fashion, and she sees herself as a future star. Her clan's techniques let her enlarge parts of her body in battle. She is close friends with Sarada and often joins her on her adventures, bringing comic energy to the group.
Sumire Kakei is the class representative at the ninja academy, a polite and hardworking girl who seems shy at first. Her story is at the centre of one of the first academy arcs in the anime, which explores her family's past and her feelings about the village. Afterwards she stays close to Boruto's classmates and has a part in many later episodes.
Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki belongs to the Ōtsutsuki clan, beings from beyond Earth who travel between worlds in search of chakra. He arrives during the Chunin Exams with his companion Kinshiki and is one of the most powerful enemies of the first part of the anime. He is cold and arrogant and treats humans as beneath him. His arc is a major turning point for Boruto.
Jigen is the leader of Kara, a secret organisation that works in the shadows and has members spread across many lands. He is calm, imposing and extremely strong, and he takes a close interest in Kawaki. His goals are not explained at first, and the Hidden Leaf learns about him and his group step by step. He is the main threat in the arcs that follow Kawaki's arrival.
