The much-anticipated finale, episode 293, adapting chapter 67 of the manga, will shock viewers with a major plot twist. A leaked screenshot from this upcoming episode shows the young Uzumaki dead on the ground. Manga readers are aware, however, that the story of the young protagonist is far from over.
According to spoilers, Boruto will return as the central character in the upcoming episode after being resurrected by Momoshiki, who uses a part of the karma. This will make it impossible for Momoshiki to resurrect himself in the future. He decided to save the protagonist for his self-interest.
The young Uzumaki is a vessel for the Ōtsutsuki, and his death would also lead to Momoshiki being extinguished from the real world. Hence, Momoshiki resurrects the protagonist.
He will also inform Boruto that he is now a complete Ōtsutsuki, ready to be sacrificed to Ten-Tails. Their conversation would end with Momoshiki reiterating that Boruto will lose everything in the future.
The upcoming episode will also see Kawaki fight against Code again, almost overpowering him in strength. The fight, however, wouldn't end well for Kawaki as Code will summon Daemon to assist him. Overall, episode 293 will be an action-packed finale that will also see Naruto's son getting resurrected.
On Twitter, fans have shown excitement over the leaked screenshot, with many agreeing that the main character looks good in the shot. Some anime-only fans were also seen expressing grief over the young Uzumaki's death, hoping for his return to the anime after the time skip.
Here are a few fan reactions to the leaked screenshot from episode 293, which depicts the young Uzumaki dead on the ground:
