Exploring the possibilities of Kawaki's Timeskip design reveal before Boruto manga's return
Manga illustrator Mikio Ikemoto gave fans a sneak peek of Kawaki's post-time-skip design a few months ago, with some select changes being made to the character's overall design. Kawaki's face was the main focus of Ikemoto's illustration, leaving the character's full design a mystery.
It has left fans to wonder whether Kawaki's full-time-skip design will be revealed before the release of Boruto -Two Blue Vortex- manga. With less than 10 days left for the manga to return from hiatus, the hype for Kawaki's time-skip design reveal is increasing within the fandom.
The time-skip design of Sarada and Boruto had already been revealed by Shueisha's V Jump magazine, and the fandom was thrilled with the first look of the characters. The young Uzumaki has also been featured on the cover of V Jump's October issue, with his time-skip design giving fans plenty of easter eggs.
On the other hand, Sarada's time-skip design has also been well received by fans, with many approving of Ikemoto's design choice for the character. Thus, the only important character left whose full-time-skip design is yet to be revealed is Kawaki. So, there's a high possibility that Kawaki's time-skip design will be revealed in the next few days.
However, no concrete information or leak about the design has been revealed, keeping fans on their toes with anticipation. It is important to note that the first chapter of the manga saw Kawaki fighting Boruto on the ruins of the Hokage Rock, with the entire Konoha Village seemingly destroyed.
Thus, fans already have a rough idea of what Kawaki would look like after the long-awaited time skip. However, it will be interesting to see whether Ikemoto makes any changes to Kawaki's design and shows how much he has improved as an illustrator in the last few years.
Fans are eagerly anticipating the reveal of Kawaki's time-skip design and believe it'll be released before the return of the manga. Fans have loved these new time-skip character designs and have complimented the glow-up that Ikemoto gave Boruto and Sarada, making them look much more unique and badass.
These new designs have increased expectations among fans, causing them to believe Kawaki's time-skip design will be more unique than everyone else's. Kawaki is an exciting and beloved deuteragonist, and fans can currently only hope Ikemoto will do justice to his character and give him a cool time-skip design.
