The myths and legends of Konoha’s Ninja Academy will soon be explored with the release of Boruto Episode 264. In a few days, Kawaki and Himawari will return to continue their mission of keeping princess Kae safe from the people who want her dead.
Last week’s episode gave fans a wholesome but uninteresting episode about Kawaki’s teacher, leaving the mission to protect Kae aside for a week. This time, the students will go on a seemingly supernatural adventure to find out if the legends of their school are real.

What happened last time?
Boruto Episode 263 started with Boruto, Sarada, and Mitsuki acting as guest teachers for Kawaki's class. They designed an exercise to help the kids learn the importance of comradery, which backfired horribly.
The exercise caused most students to start a civil war amongst each other, to the point where they skipped classes to not see the other faction. Hana, their teacher, tried her best to help the kids reconcile, although most of her efforts were in vain. However, seeing their teacher working so hard for them inspired the kids to forgive each other.
What can you expect from Boruto Episode 264?

As stated before, this week’s episode will focus on Kawaki and his classmates investigating one of the Academy’s seven ghost stories. The mystery they will try to uncover this time concerns a mirror that supposedly drags people into the underworld.
While this will likely end up being a simple Genjutsu or prank that someone is playing on the kids, we have seen paranormal events in the series before. The idea of a real ghost haunting the Ninja Academy is not as far-fetched as some fans of the franchise would think.

Last week's episode, while cute, was highly disappointing, with a boring plot that moved slowly and side characters that were somewhat annoying. Fans are hoping Boruto Episode 264 will give them the hilarity the Academy arc has brought them before once again.
