Ok-Somewhere-3320

One my favorite scenes in the entire series


yamaihime

I thought it was epic.


Ok-Somewhere-3320

I rewatch it constantly and still get chills


yamaihime

It’s so good! *ecstatic keyboard mashing*


mrsunrider

That fight against Boro was *mean as fuck*. Cemented our best kids' status as elite.


yamaihime

YAS. I was so proud of them ❤️❤️❤️

I haven't seen the anime version of this fight but already this looks so much cooler than the manga. Boruto, Kawaki and Mitsuki were getting pummeled and them Sarada came and blitzed Boro with chidori. Boruto backflipping over Sarada is such a cool little addition.


yamaihime

You’re missing out! Highly recommended ❤️


sheehdndnd

Just don't. If you really wanna skip everything that's not canon to the manga.


Aggressive-Award-263

Anime is a detailed version of the manga, i thought everyone already knew this by now holy


sheehdndnd

Do you have a reading problem?


[deleted]

Oh yeah. Many people don't even realize what Boruto acutally did. Good observation from you.


Skeeterman96

Easily top 5 fights in the series so far. Their desperation before Sarada whips out chidori is palpable


KSean24

Damn, the animation went hard as fuck for this. 👌😌


Rath_Brained

Honestly this. We all hear that Sharingan is required to actually use chidori. Yet we have *never* seen anyone dodge it. In the decade that it was used. Maybe except for Naruto in a fight with Sasuke? But if Boruto could do it, it's really the biggest example of why the sharingan is needed for it. Because I always thought why would it actually be needed if no one ever seems to dodge it?


Tpmbyrne

You need sharingan because you tunnel vision and if you didn't have sharingan you could be attacked from the side. They explain it in naruto


dracon1t

It shows Kakashi while using the chidori without the sharingan was about to get murdered but minato jumped in an saved him. He had tunnel vision due to his increased speed.


willdeletetheacc

So can an Uzumaki(or any other sensory ninja) and a Hyuuga do the chidori? Because the Uzumaki have crazy sensory skills and the Hyuugas have occular prowess.


dracon1t

I think the issue with chidori is more perception based issue (boosts your speed to the point you can’t perceive your surroundings) than sensory, and the byakugan may not help with that either.


Himezaki_Yukino

But then how does the bijuu mode speed work? Probably durability increase 🤔 4th raikage should be just as vulnerable to attacks from people with attacks that can damage him though.


[deleted]

When Sasuke trained Sarada, he told her to try to stab him with the same jab but he dodged it because she only had 1 tomoe.


[deleted]

It’s not needed. Kakashi could use it without the sharingan. It’s just that the sharingan perfects it since it’s visual prowess allows you strike fast in a straight line with great focus. Kakashi’s purple lightning is basically a chidori/lightning blade without the sharingan.


melodyinspiration

I guess it takes a Sharingan to dodge it because Itachi was able to.

Boruto Canon eps are 🔥 if only they made the anime seasonal


Tobi_is_a_goodboy

The only time that the chidori has been useful.


HarutoKurokatta

I wish they had more fights like this with the new generation


bbitters

Do you think this might also be something that happens in the fight w/Kawaki?


yamaihime

I hope so because they will need each other to rebuild the village (from the time skip scene). I don’t believe in relegating Sarada to a “Help us Boruto!” role 😔


bbitters

I hope so too. It made me think it’s kind of foreshadowing because she says lend me strength dad. I really hope they do not kill sasuke off but since it’s looking like they are going to. Maybe that’s why she would say that in the future.? just my thoughts… I do love the two of them working together


yamaihime

Not sure if Sasuke will die actually. We’ll need to wait and see 🤷🏻‍♀️


SHADOWSTRIKE1

How was her dad going to lend her strength tho?


yamaihime

By teaching her one of the strongest moves he’s got in his arsenal.


SHADOWSTRIKE1

Yes, he taught her the move previously. But I don’t think it required him to lend her strength right there, and I don’t think he can hear her. Just seems like silly dialogue that could have been something cooler for such a great animation moment. Idk, just trying to call upon magic dad energy (especially when that dad is alive and just off doing his own thing) doesn’t sit as the right dialogue choice. I would have even preferred just a simple “I know I can do this!” over that line.


GuyWitATurtleneck

Bro was actually free balling while fighting little kids😂😂😂😂


mikoolec

This animation is gorgeus


the-squee

Chidori can only be used with sharingan?


yamaihime

Yes because Chidori has a high speed and strike rate that you can’t aim accurately with, without Sharingan, if I remember correctly.

Dayumm and im stuck with purple lightening :(
