Why did most kages change in the Boruto movie?


The fifth mizukage and the sixth hokage doesn't look old at all. And I don't
believe that Ōnoki had died. Why are the kages all different?




# Why did most kages change in the Boruto movie?

Because they felt it's time to get retirement and they also found there
replacement. Hiruzen also got retired when he found his replacement in Minato
and become Hokage again when he died.

**Tsuchikage**

Ōnoki always complain about his back pain and after the tiring Fourth Shinobi
World War it seems like a proper time to get retirement.

**Hokage**

Naruto have a dream to become Hokage from start and Kakashi might have noticed
the change in Naruto to be worthy of it so he retired.

**Kazekage**

Gaara is quite young and capable and still being Kazekage.

**Mizukage**

Mei Terumī always complained about having scarcity of good man in her life and
Chōjūrō being the last of _Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist_ have proved his
worth in Fourth Shinobi World War. So Mei might have retired to concentrate on
her personal life and also found a good replacement for her.

**Raikage**

Fourth Raikage (A) was ofcourse old enough and he even lost a hand just before
Fourth Shinobi World War, seems like a proper time for retirement. And Darui
proved his worth in Fourth Shinobi World War too.

So mostly it seems Kage just gave there seats too younger generation who
proved there worth in Fourth Shinobi World War.
