What to expect from the upcoming episode?

The preview for Boruto episode 293, titled Freedom, showed the lifeless body of the protagonist. The studio seems unwilling to share anything from the upcoming episode but the somber image suggests that it will be emotionally charged, exploring how hard his death will hit everyone, especially those close to him.

Boruto episode 293 will also explore how to deal with Kawaki without him becoming a villain. Furthermore, it is unclear how Code will keep his word to Eida while also offering a sacrifice to the Divine Tree.

But all is not lost because the series' protagonist will return in Part 2.


A quick summary of Boruto episode 292

In the previous episode, Momoshiki was seen fighting Code after taking over Boruto's body. Code reminded him that Kawaki is the sacrifice that Momoshiki needs in order to cultivate the Divine tree. To avoid being attacked, Code then took cover behind Kawaki. But it was useless because Momoshiki shot him with a compressed Rasengan.

A fight then broke out between Kawaki and Momoshiki. Kawaki would have lost his arm had not Naruto and Shikamaru arrived in time. Shikamaru was able to restrain Momoshiki, but Code intervened, giving the Otsutsuki to an opening to attack Naruto.

Momoshiki was about to hit Naruto with a massive Rasengan but Kawaki activated his Karma and absorbed the attack. It was revealed that Amado had rebuilt Kawaki’s Karma while repairing his arm.

Next, Kawaki told Naruto that he would go to any length to stop Momoshiki. If the Hokage had not intervened, he would have killed the Otsutsuki.

Boruto regained control of his body during a quarrel between Naruto and Kawaki. Kawaki inquired whether he remembered the pact they had made, to which the young Uzumaki replied affirmatively and decided to carry it out right away.

Boruto used Wind Release to push Naruto aside. Kawaki then delivered a fatal blow to Boruto. The episode ended with a shot of Boruto lying dead.
