Kishimoto better do it. I have great doubts he has talent enough to get another hit, let alone of the same proportions, so better milk naturo until completely dry and most likely in pitiful state.

Gotta respect mangakas that have sufficient vision, talent, confidence and pride to leave behind a very popular series to try something new and succeed, thou, those fall in the land of geniuses, so not easy. But if a series big enough like Nartuo was created the magaka can very well semi-retire in a high note and do other projects instead.

I'm sure he's referring to the fact that the main manga is over, when the anime ends I believe then this series will finally be given a rest

This is Naruto we're talking about here! It will take a while before it ends.

Why do people keep saying this? It's not even getting the cover in Japanese WSJ in its premiere issue. The publishers as well as the author insist that it will be a limited series I'd imagine 3-4 months tops since they said until summer.

My only reaction is... the kid's name is Boruto... seriously!? Talk about milking the cow, with naming like that the author isn't even trying to put any effort in anymore. May as well have just called him spoiler[Narunata].

Boruto is the japanese pronunciation of "Bolt" and Boruto was named in honor of Neji which also means "screw" in Japanese. So Kishi did put some effort into naming him......more so than he did Neji by his own admission.
