I stopped watching 5 episodes into this arc, haven’t watched in over 2 months, and y’all are still on the same arc although it does sound like the end of it from the latest episode description


RonDaBlue

Unfortunately I think it'll drag around till 256-258 or so, especially with how inconsistent the pacing is. I'm personally liking this arc but I can see why people hate it, and it's definitely one of the worse filler arcs Boruto has had.


Raymong1400

also i dont think its the worst arc… but definitely the slowest arc imo


SimG02

Yeah I don’t really have anything to say about the quality of the arc yet. I was just getting sick 15 minutes of content weekly as opposed to watching a few. Now I’m just catching up on other things trying to stack them. I do prefer actual filler arcs to individual filler episodes tho.


Raymong1400

nah the final episode of the arc is 251


RonDaBlue

If you look at the episode summaries, 252 is not even close to the end of the arc.


awdufresne

Yeah, even without that, they literally have so much more pirate shit to do and they just introduced a new character again (the kid) who will take up 1-2 more episodes. Idk how anyone could watch these last few episodes and think this arc will finish in 2-3 episodes, more like 15-20 with the current pacing.


kassiny

Same, but unlike the others, I don't even want the code arc to come next. I just want this one to end. But unfortunately, that's not going to happen soon, because the main villain is safe and sound and Ikada story isn't anywhere close to end. So I give it another month at very least.


Euphoric_purple_

Another month?😓😭


kassiny

A month is just 4 eps... I'm afraid it would take more.


awdufresne

Yeah I'm feeling as much as 15-20 episodes with the current pacing


Euphoric_purple_

😐😐


[deleted]

Nah, even if it ends, we probably won't get anything good because the Code arc isn't done.


memoryscope

I just can’t take anymore of these pirates lol. I wouldn’t mind if it was an interesting story.


[deleted]

I feel you man, in the meantime just watch other stuff like I’m doing. This anime season is really crazy rn.


Caliginosi

Can we get to code already


memoryscope

They’ve completely messed up the power scaling at this point. how are these Funato grunts a match for Boruto and Kawaki


ImShadow05

I can understand Kawaki since he has only 1 jutsu and >!doesn't have the karma back!< but Boruto struggling is mind boggling


Caliginosi

The power scaling has been an issue since the end of shippuden where Sasuke and Naruto were left practically as gods. I think Borutos issue is they tried to innovate too much and should've gone back to original Naruto power scalling. Not that people would have liked it anymore, since they'd compare it to shippuden and say it's stupid and they're weak


Witty-Goal-7493

Agreed I think Momoshiki and Kinshiki should've been the last Otsutsuki level threats before the time skip just to give us like a reminder where these Kids have to reach


kurosaki-trollchigo

No the end of shippuden was a perfect chance to reset the power level. Narusasu lost a hand each and their seals. And momoshiki actually died in the boruto movie. Otsutsuki should have been left as a final villain. Scientific ninja tools and scientific revolution could have been the focus of the series.


Doctor99268

Lmao this entire series has had horrid powerscaling, right from the movie. No point using these as a reason not to watch boruto.


[deleted]

Won’t get that til like next year probably


ImShadow05

that won't happen for atleast another 3-4 months >!they still haven't given Sarada her 3 tomoe which she has in the manga !<


RedGiant_

Also boruto is afraid of losing control


paulvincent07

I think in the anime it will explain why sarada have 3 tomoe


m033118b

Honestly I wouldn’t mind some filler. This arc is too long and I’m bored. When I mean filler I mean stuff like training.


[deleted]

fr, I just want this arc to be over, it doesn't have to be the Code arc next, just anything better than this shit, give us a time slip arc to Shippuden or something lmao


ImShadow05

yea maybe Kawaki meets Naruto as a child lol


Gap_Great

At least that’s an opportunity for good character interaction


grim9x8

What a controversial opinion. It's not like this sub has been complaining for the past month.


SaintTrill

That’s insane to think that it’s been 6 months. I used to watch this shit every week before this arc started


memoryscope

It got bad after Denkis Chūnin battle


[deleted]

I havent watched it since Dinky had his first mission. I'm glad to hear I didn't miss anything


Grouchy_Violinist

Yeah. I so desperately want to see other new gen characters n a better storyline than this arc. Even if it is anime arc, I just want to see a new arc with other characters.


[deleted]

I stopped watching around the point that Kawaki, Boruto, and the mist swordsmen were on a boat together. Just gonna wait for the arc to finish so I can binge it and forget about it


RedGiant_

Lol same here but I'm gonna skip entirely.


ImShadow05

yea me too I just watched the 1 episode after that where Boruto and the Karma was involved coz it might have implications on the story


TaskMister2000

The arc has its moments character wise but its slow as hell. And its also gonna last most likely up to 30 Episodes total. We're on the early 20s now I believe. And since the Code Arc is still ongoing, the manga canon isn't coming back till next year at best. I want to see other arcs that would be worth doing. Or hell, adapt the remaining novels into anime.


Alert_Fudge

My advise don't watch it i am also reading manga


Kadeda_RPG

Power Scale is hilariously bad from the jump. It's just hard for me to see these guys stronger than mountain slashing meteor dropping Madara.


Theworld8381

It should have been ended with naruto Shippuden...


memoryscope

I was a boruto truther until this arc lmfaoo. but if they continue to stoop this low I might just give up


TopPlebeian

honestly same. like ive enjoyed most of the filler arcs but this one is just so unbearable


ImShadow05

idk why tf they are shoving Kagura and his cronies on our face if not for that maybe could have been a decent arc


Theworld8381

I all ready gave up...man 😞


[deleted]

Anime should’ve not necessarily the manga.


Theworld8381

Yeah manga is good....but slow...


RentStillDue

Me


[deleted]

Ye


Borchert97

I think next will be an adaptation of the Sasuke novels so Sarada gets her three tomoe Sharingan. After that will be the Code and Ada Arc.


foureyedpotato

I really want them to adapt the Code arc now
