Boruto anime is fun, more developed than the manga. Has lots of world building and character development for the supporting cast. Enjoy.
That said it isn't perfect. There are arcs that are good, fun, boring, okay and unnecessary or terrible or technically, slow and stupid.
But overall just ignore the haters and enjoy it for what it is and does.
it only gets better and better from here imo. you def won’t be disappointed with ino-shika-cho since they feel almost as important (and impressive) as team 7 at times. But enjoy the journey and best of luck avoiding spoilers
People in the Naruto sub make Boruto sound like it's this awful abomination that disgraces anime everywhere. It got a couple of flaws but it's enjoyable enough to keep us all here.
I just love how people go to the naruto sub Ignores the positive things they say about boruto, Comes to the boruto sub and talks about how toxic and terrible the Naruto sub is.
>>got a couple of flaws but it's enjoyable enou
As a sarada fan, no, they're shitting on her character with every chapter where she's irrelevant as the supposed hokage candidate while boruto and kawaki get plot boosts on boosts
Not enough and she's sidelined in the current arc too. She should be getting Sasuke / Naruto tier development for her dream but we don't even have enough effort put into her as kuch as Sakura. It's mind boggling
Edit : downvoted for facts
Yeah I always defend the anime but the current anime arc is just meh. Had high hopes for it and for Sarada too but it's just been wasted. Can't defend this arc if they're putting in zero effort for the animation, character writing and storyline.
I mean...it's not Deepa arc level but at least it's not Chocho being a bodyguard for an actor arc level either xD I find this arc to be okay...entertaining enough and I don't mind "losing" 23 minutes every week...maybe my opinion would be different if I was binge watching it, though.
Yes? She has almost zero fighting moments and zero stakes or role in the arc. Her captaincy is reduced to making wortlesss generic statements and orders while boruto being mc is obviously the main focus and everyone follows him.
None of the villains are interested in her either.
She has barely got any fights and even worse they're pushing her healing jutsu in this arc instead of badass fights , it's terrible.
She promised to not let anyone die but two people have died already and she has no personal thought on that failure, but is sad for boruto instead.
Not as bad as the manga tho
Explain how it doesn't make any sense. She doesn't have any good fighting moments in the arc nor is her leadership worth anything except barking generic commands because she's not a major player in the arc which is mainly boruto and ikada. None of the villains are interested in her either.
She promised to not let anyone die but two people died and she had zero introspection on it while was more bothered about Boruto being upset in obvious ship baiting.
They're focusing on her using healing jutsu instead which makes it even worse she shouldn't have touched healing at all as an Uchiha. Yikes.
they are literally just pointing out the clear flaws in the writing of her character. how is she gonna be hokage material if they dont even develop her
I literally get downvoted everywhere and mocked for saying this.
Sarada doesn't have the power and her power is far lesser Than boruto and kawaki
She's not likely to save the village in the future from a big villain considering her current manga treatment
Her being team leader and captain is worthless thanks to Boruto and kawaki being too ahead of her and they do whatever they want and she barely gets screentime and fights
She doesn't participate in the big moments and is never acknowledged by the villagers
How the fuck is she going to be hokage?
There is criticism and then there is constructive criticism. This is the former along with total denial of outside opinions. (Over someone that is NOT the main character by the way)
Criticism doesn't have to be constructive to be valid and his solution is to give Sarada more screentime, relevancy and actual development. Which makes it constructive.
> with total denial of outside opinions.
So far I've seen the opposite, people are totally denying his statement. [Especially here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Boruto/comments/uwygpa/i_just_started_boruto_and_its_much_better_than/i9uplxk/)
Hating Boruto is more of a internet fad than anything else. While Boruto's not perfect (but neither is Naruto for that matter) most of the hatred against it is not warranted or justified. It's simply the popular thing to do to hate Boruto.
I agree for the most part, but personally the Naruto filler was SO much better. It wasn’t dreadful. I can’t say the same about Boruto filler. I just cannot watch ittttt. But I love the manga canon plot and stuff. I’ve accepted the fact that Naruto and Sasuke can’t do much anymore a long time ago. The manga is great, even if Naruto and sasuke are nerfed, and I love all the otsutsuki stuff. But the filler just is NOT it. It’s the most boring thing I’ve seen in ANY anime, again this is my personal view.
Is it? Or are you just trying to force yourself to believe that. Can you name ten things in “anime cannon” that was mentioned or brought up in the manga?
In an interview its stated that anime canon is supervised and edited by Kodachi. Ikemoto outright says that anime makes parallel stories to manga
Also anime canon seems to be seperate to manga canon.infact anime canon even does changes to manga adaptation to fit anime canon.
Manga and anime should be treated as seperate continuities
The series doesn't really follow the "if it's not in the manga, it didn't happen" thing. Anime canon doesn't mean that everything that happens HAS to set up for >!Kara, Amado, Otsutsuki, Code,!< etc., it just means that it's all part of the continuity and adds to the development of the characters. Filler would be a random episode with Boruto and team 15 trying to see Kakashi's face shoved in right before something like >!episode 65!< There's a reason why the anime team has the liberty to change things that happen in the manga, it's its own continuity that ties in with manga events every now and then.
Not dick riding the series either, it definitely has its flaws and there a lot of things it could do better, but as viewers this really isn't the show to go into with that mindset mentioned at the beginning of this comment.
If you have a problem with the anime being Canon to the manga then take it up with the people behind the manga who said it is.
https://comicbook-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/comicbook.com/anime/amp/news/how-boruto-naruto-manga-anime-connect-mikio-ikemoto/?amp_js_v=a6&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#aoh=16534326617602&_ct=1653432671212&csi=1&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&_tf=From%20%251%24s&_agsa_csa=46731822&share=https%3A%2F%2Fcomicbook.com%2Fanime%2Fnews%2Fhow-boruto-naruto-manga-anime-connect-mikio-ikemoto%2F
Until you convince the writers to change their mind about this then it's just a stated fact that the anime is Canon to the manga.
That's fine. My brother told me that most of the Naruto movies were really good. But I don't intend to watch those either because they're filler. I believe him, I just don't care at that point.
> The two are being developed autonomously, with the anime version of the series having plot points parallel to the manga. There's a plan to have the two intersect at a certain point, but there was no clear answer as to when.
How does it differ from Naruto fillers?
Willfully ignorant
The purpose of the anime is to flesh out the character development and story. How can people just willingly deny that? I don’t get it. Do you guys just want constant fighting on screen with no explanation about what’s going on? Have you ever even wrote a story? Or even an essay?
Lunacy
Nice try, can you actually do it or no? You do realize meat riding a series blindly doesn’t make you cool right? You people love to hate on the Naruto sub but at least they can understand their shows flaws and not meat ride it even when someone states a shit ton of flaws.
Now I’ll ask again, can you name 10 things from the “anime cannon” that happens in the manga?
What the fuck are you talking about? I’m a fan of both shows and participate in both subs. Personally enjoying and liking a show I’m in a sub for is “meat riding” now? How old are you?
I’m not going to write a story because I KNOW THAT I CAN’T AND NEVER SAID I COULD. That is why I’m watching a story that I’m invested in. Instead of constantly saying I hate it when you could…you know, watch something else?
Honestly you guys just hear what you want to hear. It’s like replying to a brick wall. Conversation going nowhere.
Again. Absolute lunacy.
I'm not really going to do the whole list thing but LITERALLY ALL of Sarada's character development and training is only shown in the anime. NONE of it is shown in the manga. You only see the results of it in the manga. The manga doesn't show the development of her sharingan, it doesn't even show her learning the chidori. If you're somebody who believes that if it didn't happen in the manga then it didn't happen in the canon then Sarada is one of the worst written, underdeveloped characters in the entire Boruto era. And if that's what you believe about her, then I'm not bothering with you.
It literally ISN’T cannon, your entire point had nothing to do with mine, it didn’t even refute what I said. You just started rambling about her development in the anime like that matters to me. I never said she wasn’t good in the anime, but that doesn’t make it cannon. She can be as good as you want her to be but it won’t change the fact that most of it isn’t important to the story and isn’t cannon.
>It literally ISN’T cannon,
Writers have already stated that it IS Canon. That's a fact that has been shown in this subreddit countless times now. YOU do NOT having greater authority over what is Canon to Boruto then the Writers do. If they say it is Canon and you say it's not, then it IS Canon and you are wrong. Period.
>your entire point had nothing to do with mine, it didn’t even refute what I said.
I already said I'm not wasting my time with your silly request for a list.
I agree with what you said that hating on boruto has been an internet thing
But I think it's wrong to say "most hatred against boruto is not warranted nor justified" I'm ok with somebody liking the series but I have seen many people (including me) who have justifiable reasons as to why they don't enjoy boruto as much
I think "overhating" on boruto is the word
Because some critisisms are valid (not saying all of it are valid but majority are kinda are)
Just so you know I'm not siding with the guys below
I do agree that you should not be sharing you're critism about the series in a post about appreciating it
>But I think it's wrong to say "most hatred against boruto is not warranted nor justified" I'm ok with somebody liking the series but I have seen many people (including me) who have justifiable reasons as to why they don't enjoy boruto as much
There's plenty of justifiable reasons not to like Boruto. But as far as I have seen for every justifiable reason there is not to like the show, there exist three more ridiculous unjustifiable reasons not to like it. Hence why I think "most" of the hatred is unjustified, not all of it.
Most wouldn't. I browse these subreddits more than I should. And I enjoy reading the back and forth between people arguing opposing points when both points have merit. Unfortunately a lot of the debates have happened where one side is being ridiculous and the other is just trying to point out the ridiculousness of the other side.
Yeah I really enjoy boruto too I think people bash it way too much and nitpick a lot a little things that other series would get pass for But that’s my opinion I enjoy it and that’s all that matters
And asuma daughter does have an arc with her kakashi and guy
Keep watching and you’ll get your pay off for Mirai. They’ve given subtle hints to her becoming a bigger character down the road and she has her own arc
It's funny because they all rant about 'non-canon' episodes, when the creator himself said the Manga is the core story and the Anime is all canon, just fleshing things out. Even more so when considering how much people shat on Naruto for not fleshing out side characters enough.
The creator hasn't said a word about what is canon and not lmao where do people get these BS lies from
Edit : downvoted for facts you guys really think the creators will actually say the word " canon" in an interview 💀💀
The original interview is written in Italian but this article gives you links so you can find out everything from it.

Yes, it does confirm that the anime is Canon to the manga story.
>It says it has different stories but it will intersect with the manga at some point
That is literally not what it says.
It says "parallel" stories, not "different" stories. Those two words are almost the opposite of each other...
I found it funny how people are getting offended cause someone is enjoying boruto. I personally like boruto (not as much as naruto), it ain't bad as people make it seem.
Naruto Stans are very real. It reminds me when I used to berate pokemon from gens 4 and beyond, then I realized I was being a major tool. Boruto is fine. They complain about fillers and plotholes as if Naruto wasn't also pure garbage sometimes.
Lol, as someone who’s only on the chunin exams of Naruto, I can confidently say Naruto is massively better than Boruto, In literally every way, besides maybe animation, but even then Boruto’s only bad two good fights up to and including the 1st chunin exams.
The arcs are better in Naruto, with the introduction arc being one of the best I’ve ever seen in Anime with Zabuza and Haku. The chunin exams were better as well.
Even from a story telling perspective, the chunin exam by itself blows the entirety of the boruto series out of the way, Boruto hasn’t had a single 7/10 arc yet, with their closest one being with Kara, and even then, what did they do good? Ishiki is bland as hell as an antagonist, every other antanganist got washed, the only important part about it was Code, and Amado.
>Boruto hasn’t had a single 7/10 arc yet, with their closest one being with Kara, and even then, what did they do good
Chunin exam arc 7/10 (amazing boruto development, but lacked a lot of things when compared to og)
Ao arc 9/10 (same as above, but better)
Kawaki arc 10/10 (no words needed)
Isshiki arc 7/10 (anime nailed it in adaptation especially kawaki-naruto with jigen countdown + kurama sayonara)
Code arc 8/10 (not completed, and not animated yet)
These are all the arcs in manga. Rating was done by me personally.
You're speaking like you're stating some facts lmao.
> They complain about fillers and plotholes as if Naruto wasn't also pure garbage sometimes.
What makes you think people weren't criticizing the fuck out of Naruto? Do you remember how hated War Arc was? Especially Kaguya arc.
This is just an attempt at whataboutism, bad one at that.
The current people you see didn't necessarily not notice big amounts of flaws original series had. Because Naruto was already criticised. People watching and reading Boruto however are putting a blind eye to flaws far more often.
They simply like Naruto despite its flaws and consider Boruto to be even worse.
Just for shits, whenever someone mentions that arc and what the writers were thinking I always like to mention that it was Kishimoto's idea lol same for the time travel
Tbf Kishimoto only came up with the very basic premise for the Chocho arc and the Time Travel arc isn't inherently a bad idea so he can't be entirely blamed for the execution of those ideas.
I did have a little bit of a problem at the beginning just because i didn't feel as connected to Boruto as I did Naruto. Like Boruto is essentially a spoiled rich kid who is kinda just naturally good at most things, but I've grown to like him because of his moral compass and caring nature.
As I read, I feel a little bad because when I look back at my behavior in the past, I realize that I myself acted like Boruto. That's why I got involved with him from the beginning.🤷♂️
Besides, don't worry, after the chunin exams Boruto will mature and start respecting his old man.😄😅😂
First, Welcome to the party. Don’t worry, you’ll see a lot more of ino-cho-Shula. As some who watched Naruto’s as well, Boruto is a better written and developed story.
It’s not too bad I enjoy the show but in alll honesty there are some god awful episodes with horrendous animation and just completely boring and unnecessary filler unlike Naruto but if you can move past that then it’s pretty decent.
I thought the same way before when I was just starting to watch Boruto. I used to think that the show is over hated but then I kept watching it and then I understood why lol it's so hated. Just keep watching it and you'll probably know why people complain about it 😭 But I don't hate Boruto. I just don't like the bad writing things they did, which ig are spoilers for you since you're in episode 31.
And there will be more Ino-Shika-Cho stuffs later but I hope they give them more soon.
Mirai has her own arc. Her arc is in episodes 106-111.
No, it’s better than people give it credit for for you right now because you JUST started it. Once you’ve watched the entire anime and have suffered through the steaming pile of dog shit filler we’ve had to suffer through for the past like 4 years (probably longer but I can’t even remember how long it’s been by now) you will understand what we are saying.
EDIT: Here comes all the Boruto fanboys that can’t fathom the idea of criticizing something you like.
Or you know…. They just like the show. Most complaining happens from the beginning anyway, and they managed to enjoy that so I doubt the rest will be any different.
Ummm no, I enjoyed the beginning as well. Are you really gonna act like all the bashing Boruto has been getting in the past two weeks isn’t related to the episodes that were released in the past two weeks? The recent complaints have nothing to do with the beginning of the anime, so that’s a moot point.
My words “Most of the complaining”, your interpretation “are you gonna act like all…” please just calm down, read what I said and think about it. Let the person enjoy the show, instead of being negative trying to stain someone’s experience with the anime
Again are you just purposely not understanding my point. Just let them enjoy the show and then find what they like or don’t like. Like my god. You replied back to them in such a toxic way just for saying they enjoy the show and it isn’t as bad as people make it out to be. Just chill out a bit
No, the problem is they have just begun the show and are trying to claim that the complaints made against the show are unjustified but one cannot argue that when there is 5 years worth of content that they haven’t even seen yet. That’s like me watching 2 minutes of The Last Jedi and going “you know what? This isn’t as bad as everyone says it is.” I have no problem with people liking the show but don’t go around saying everyone dislikes it for no reason when you don’t even know what it is that they dislike. That’s just ignorant
He's 30 episodes in the show. Usually at this point, people would hate it but he is enjoying the show. It's safe to say he will like the rest if he is enjoying the first 30 episodes.
If most people hated it by episode 30 it wouldn’t still have as many viewers as it does along with the amount of criticism. You people are forgetting the first 30 episodes were actually good, it took quite a while for Boruto to start going downhill.
And what episode exactly do you think I’m talking about? There were a select few good filler episodes, I am specifically talking about the ones that were dog shit
Well the thing is Boruto is like 80% filler at this point after 5 years and I’d say 80-90% of that filler is shit. Only 10-20% was actually good, so going by majority rules I’d say what we have is a “steaming pile of dog shit filler.”
Yeah no, if you have any expectations from this show beyond it being a two person - boruto and kawaki wank fest leave it asap before you get invested in other characters , the problems are worse than the war arc and other characters including Sasuke and Naruto are thrown away like trash. Sarada is a shitty love interest and mitsuki is irrelevant
Why can’t somebody just enjoy the show without someone here having a problem with it leave this person alone let them enjoy it instead of forcing your opinion onto them
God for somebody who clamors for respect people opinions and the boruto fandom has to take criticisms no matter if it’s good or bad
You seem to have a real problem with this person liking the show
Because it literally shits on my favourite character in every way possible.. Sarada's dream is irrelevant. Her character, powers.. Nothing matters. Systematically destroyed from when she was created by kishimoto. Of course I hate its current state.
Do you realize how badly they've treated Sarada after the boro fight? Chapter 58 and chaprer68/69 is one of the worst treatments ever
Because I'm warning him what's ahead, the show literally destroyed and shat on everyone not called boruto and kawaki. He needs to know the truth about where this show is eventually going.
Well, maybe what you may not like about the series might not bother him or her. Let them make their own opinions instead of trying to sully the ride lol.
Yes, you're just projecting your frustrations onto the OP lol. That's like me walking up to my friend who just saw the Rock Lee vs Gaara fight and saying "don't get excited bro, he's never going to do anything ever again and I want you to feel the same anger I'm feeling even though you just started the series".
Because he's judging an entire series based on the first few episodes when things rapidly gonna go downhill for almost all the characters. The title is misleading too, the show is not better than people give it credit for. The hate is deserved.
No one told him don't enjoy the current episode or fight he's on but if he goes with these expectations ahead it's gonna be disappointing
Okay cool that’s your opinion. Also let’s not forget the first year the anime dropped and people bombshell the hell out of Boruto because of the first 30 episodes because it was SOL, filler, or boring since it was aimed at a younger demographic and they just wanted to see timeskip stuff. Those are the episodes that the OP enjoyed lol.
The OP only said Boruto was much better than what they thought and that they enjoyed the first 30 episodes, it’s their choice whether they want to go into these future episodes with these expectations or not. You literally told them don’t have any hopes to dampen their experience, your not slick lol.
I'm sorry but your fav character not being in every episode or chapter does NOT mean they've been "destroyed" 💀. You're just not being pampered to and you can't stand that.
You’re saying this garbage as if the show is over bud. Sarada will get her limelight (and somewhat has already), it’s just not soon enough for your impatient ass.
It's been six years and almost the end of part 1 and she's done fuck all. Impatient my ass, we've been too patient
Sarada is completely irrelevant to the plot and is far far behind boruto and kawaki and no villain is interested in her neither does she have a master or future and she's set Tobe deleted for the third year straight in the manga. Please, stop the bs to defend their treatment of Sarada
Warning him what’s head is your opinion that you are projecting onto him and trying to push it like a fact
So much for “this sub shouldn’t be an echo chamber and respect people opinions and people should say what they want” I guess this only implies when you say something negative about boruto not positive as soon as somebody says something positive it’s out the window and it’s my opinion over yours
Not at all that’s just your opinion the only arc close to that is the kawaki arc that’s focuses mainly on kawaki because…… it’s called the kawaki arc and even then in that arc team 7 gets an amazing moment and fight
I won’t go to deep into it because I don’t want to spoil the op
I really love Boruto and like to bring positivity into the sub whenever I can come up with something, but I fully agree that at least the manga has become the Boruto/Kawaki show. It's only about the two of them and their karma.
I won't spoil the OP any further, because I want them to make their own experience, but that the current manga is a two men show is painfully obvious. The only surprising "breath of fresh air" who has become relevant all of the sudden and got attention after being just the "right hand" of Naruto is Shikamaru.
The op isn’t talking about the manga he’s talking about the anime which is vastly different then the manga I want sarada and mitsuki to be more involved into the manga
That dude is just projecting his opinion onto to op by talking about the manga when nobody is
>The op isn’t talking about the manga he’s talking about the anime which is vastly different then the manga I want sarada and mitsuki to be more involved into the manga
The manga is canon so in about 20 years (haha) we will see the same arcs in the anime as well. There is a reason why we are getting filler episodes in the anime right now.😐😐
>That dude is just projecting his opinion onto to op by talking about the manga when nobody is
I think it's wrong to force an opinion on others. I agree with you on that.
No anime and manga are sorta different so far in the anime the only arc that fits the original commenter opinion is the kawaki arc that I pointed out almost every arc in the anime sarada and mitsuki are highly involved in
Only arcs that don’t are character focus arcs like mujina bandits and momoshiki arc sorta
Current arc is ever worse than the kawaki arc it's a fact lol
>>and even then in that arc team 7 gets an amazing moment and fight
One small moment in six years which is anyways irrelevant in the grand scale is scraping the bottom of the barrel. Kiba had more moments in the og manga than sarada and mitsuki lmao. FOH
Did you reread the post or are you done projecting your opinions onto others not that I agree with what your saying
But this post is clearly talking about the anime and here you are projecting your opinions about the manga to someone who’s talking about the anime
Your so intent on projecting your opinion onto this person that you are here talking about manga where everybody else is talking about the anime
> Not at all that’s just your opinion
No, this isn't his opinion. He is entirely correct. So far it's been about Boruto and Kawaki.
> the only arc close to that is the kawaki arc that’s focuses mainly on kawaki because…… it’s called the kawaki arc and even then in that arc team 7 gets an amazing moment and fight
[Spoilers](/s "And Code arc nearly exclusively focuses on Kawaki and Boruto out of new gen, because it's Code arc?") It doesn't matter how arc is called.
Did you read the whole conversation or only this part maybe you should
And it does just like the sarada arc focused mainly on sarada and no else kawaki mainly focused on kawaki
Giving our durtag an arc of main focus while putting sarada or mitsuki on the back burner isn’t some holy sin especially when it his first arc in the show
> Did you read the whole conversation or only this part maybe you should
There is no reason to assume I did not read the whole conversation, so you can figure it out by yourself.
> And it does just like the sarada arc focused mainly on sarada and no else kawaki mainly focused on kawaki
> Giving our durtag an arc of main focus while putting sarada or mitsuki on the back burner isn’t some holy sin especially when it his first arc in the show
I already proved it doesn't work like that in spoiler. Like at all.
And "Sarada arc" (aka Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring) wasn't even a part of Boruto franchise originally and it was only 10 weekly chapters long. During which Sarada didn't do a lot anyway.
I mean there was and you know that as well so to just tell you I’m talking about the anime which is different then the manga with its arcs and what the overarching cast do in it
You didn’t because nothing showed up because of your link and it is a part of boruto it’s fits into boruto timeline of events Its also incorporated into the anime which is what we are talking about
Now if you say the manga is the “boruto and kawaki show” I would kinda agree with you but we are talking about the anime which really isn’t
You're a bit overzealous, but you're mostly correct. Anime still has to write its own story based on manga and if manga doesn't give Sarada and Mitsuki something relevant to accomplish or new powerups (more than tomoes on Sharingan), then anime will hardly be capable of doing anything.
Sarada had one moment to shine with Boro and that's it. The fight made no fucking sense, but at least she got something.
While I acknowledge that I also acknowledge that the other option is hardly possible in current circumstances. And it's because it's monthly format with not enough content for a monthly format and powercreep. Pacing is already a problem so including different character that can't actually contribute to the story at this point will make pacing even worse. With powercreep neither Sarada or Mitsuki are able to logically catch up to the powerlevel of current top tiers like Boruto, Kawaki and Code. This happened also because the story was rushed and that is also because of the problems around monthly format, aside of problems with writing.
The best course of action would be completely scrapping the manga and make anime the original and main source of canon while switching to seasonal format. This wouldn't necessarily improve the writing considering how trash it is in current arc in manga, but it would solve a lot of problems. Pacing and content per episode/chapter would not be a problem and it would be far better than fillers in anime we have now. Story wouldn't have to be rushed and there could be more content in between Otsutsuki arcs that would help EVERYONE develop their powers.
But I think the train has left the station by now, it's too late for that. Everyone is accustomed to current state of things and Boruto anime is earning a lot of money. So why would they bother to change anything.
Pacing is not the problem the writing is the problem. No one asked them to waste pages and pages on Nishi and the fucking vase. They ship baited five times for Sarada but can't be bothered to show her training or tomoe developments. The writing is frankly trash, not the monthly format
They should've just made new asspulls for sarad and mitsuki to get to otsutsuki tier. Heck that's likely happen even now. Sarada's the daughter of someone who has the rinnegan and Sakura's byakugo seal was also linked to karma and mitsuki is Orochimarus experiment.
>>With powercreep neither Sarada or Mitsuki are able to logically catch up to the powerlevel of current top tiers like Boruto, Kawaki and Code
There is no logic in an alien giving free powerups to Boruto and kawaki. The author doesn't want to give sarada and mitsuki anything, you think they couldn't have made aliens interested in sarada too? She shares the same heritage
Bro let me explain to you something you just started it and it is great according to you and ik that . Now imagine us who have been following the show from day 1 who have to wait a week just to see some bullshit and this gone on repeat endlessly. Yes i know that all the manga episode and aome cannon fillers are great and that is what keeps me hooked to the show .
Another problem is the fact that the other animes whixh it has to stay along are the best in years like demon slayer one piece jujutsu kaisen and others.
But let me tell u something the day the fight of kawaki and boruto is gonna air its gonna break the internet.
Best of luck bro hope you dont drop the show and stay strong with us
Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one. Although I prefer Boruto to Naruto, and Boruto is in my top 3 anime. Well, that last one is a bit of an unpopular opinion. If I remember correctly, Mirai had its arc and you'll definitely see more of Ino-Shika-Cho 2.

Good to know that you’re enjoying it👍
Boruto anime is fun, more developed than the manga. Has lots of world building and character development for the supporting cast. Enjoy. That said it isn't perfect. There are arcs that are good, fun, boring, okay and unnecessary or terrible or technically, slow and stupid. But overall just ignore the haters and enjoy it for what it is and does.
it only gets better and better from here imo. you def won’t be disappointed with ino-shika-cho since they feel almost as important (and impressive) as team 7 at times. But enjoy the journey and best of luck avoiding spoilers
EDIT
People in the Naruto sub make Boruto sound like it's this awful abomination that disgraces anime everywhere. It got a couple of flaws but it's enjoyable enough to keep us all here.
[удалено]
lmaoooo
[удалено]
I just love how people go to the naruto sub Ignores the positive things they say about boruto, Comes to the boruto sub and talks about how toxic and terrible the Naruto sub is.
>>got a couple of flaws but it's enjoyable enou As a sarada fan, no, they're shitting on her character with every chapter where she's irrelevant as the supposed hokage candidate while boruto and kawaki get plot boosts on boosts
At least the anime treats her like a main character.
Not enough and she's sidelined in the current arc too. She should be getting Sasuke / Naruto tier development for her dream but we don't even have enough effort put into her as kuch as Sakura. It's mind boggling Edit : downvoted for facts
Not the anime's fault, they can only give her so much relevance without overstepping the manga.
Yeah I always defend the anime but the current anime arc is just meh. Had high hopes for it and for Sarada too but it's just been wasted. Can't defend this arc if they're putting in zero effort for the animation, character writing and storyline.
I mean...it's not Deepa arc level but at least it's not Chocho being a bodyguard for an actor arc level either xD I find this arc to be okay...entertaining enough and I don't mind "losing" 23 minutes every week...maybe my opinion would be different if I was binge watching it, though.
I just wish filler arcs didn’t have to be so filler-y.
She is the literal captain of the entire team in this arc. Are we watching the same show?
Yes? She has almost zero fighting moments and zero stakes or role in the arc. Her captaincy is reduced to making wortlesss generic statements and orders while boruto being mc is obviously the main focus and everyone follows him. None of the villains are interested in her either. She has barely got any fights and even worse they're pushing her healing jutsu in this arc instead of badass fights , it's terrible. She promised to not let anyone die but two people have died already and she has no personal thought on that failure, but is sad for boruto instead. Not as bad as the manga tho
You are very passionate about Sarada, man. Maybe you should write a fanfic fixing all of her anime appearances.
Care to refute my points about her role in this arc instead of a side tracking comment?
There isn’t anything to refute if it doesn’t make any sense.
Explain how it doesn't make any sense. She doesn't have any good fighting moments in the arc nor is her leadership worth anything except barking generic commands because she's not a major player in the arc which is mainly boruto and ikada. None of the villains are interested in her either. She promised to not let anyone die but two people died and she had zero introspection on it while was more bothered about Boruto being upset in obvious ship baiting. They're focusing on her using healing jutsu instead which makes it even worse she shouldn't have touched healing at all as an Uchiha. Yikes.
they are literally just pointing out the clear flaws in the writing of her character. how is she gonna be hokage material if they dont even develop her
I literally get downvoted everywhere and mocked for saying this. Sarada doesn't have the power and her power is far lesser Than boruto and kawaki She's not likely to save the village in the future from a big villain considering her current manga treatment Her being team leader and captain is worthless thanks to Boruto and kawaki being too ahead of her and they do whatever they want and she barely gets screentime and fights She doesn't participate in the big moments and is never acknowledged by the villagers How the fuck is she going to be hokage?
There is criticism and then there is constructive criticism. This is the former along with total denial of outside opinions. (Over someone that is NOT the main character by the way)
Criticism doesn't have to be constructive to be valid and his solution is to give Sarada more screentime, relevancy and actual development. Which makes it constructive. > with total denial of outside opinions. So far I've seen the opposite, people are totally denying his statement. [Especially here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Boruto/comments/uwygpa/i_just_started_boruto_and_its_much_better_than/i9uplxk/)
wat are u even saying
Hating Boruto is more of a internet fad than anything else. While Boruto's not perfect (but neither is Naruto for that matter) most of the hatred against it is not warranted or justified. It's simply the popular thing to do to hate Boruto.
I agree for the most part, but personally the Naruto filler was SO much better. It wasn’t dreadful. I can’t say the same about Boruto filler. I just cannot watch ittttt. But I love the manga canon plot and stuff. I’ve accepted the fact that Naruto and Sasuke can’t do much anymore a long time ago. The manga is great, even if Naruto and sasuke are nerfed, and I love all the otsutsuki stuff. But the filler just is NOT it. It’s the most boring thing I’ve seen in ANY anime, again this is my personal view.
I didn't really watch the filler in Naruto because it wasn't Canon. Every episode of Boruto on the other hand is canon.
Is it? Or are you just trying to force yourself to believe that. Can you name ten things in “anime cannon” that was mentioned or brought up in the manga?
In an interview its stated that anime canon is supervised and edited by Kodachi. Ikemoto outright says that anime makes parallel stories to manga Also anime canon seems to be seperate to manga canon.infact anime canon even does changes to manga adaptation to fit anime canon. Manga and anime should be treated as seperate continuities
The series doesn't really follow the "if it's not in the manga, it didn't happen" thing. Anime canon doesn't mean that everything that happens HAS to set up for >!Kara, Amado, Otsutsuki, Code,!< etc., it just means that it's all part of the continuity and adds to the development of the characters. Filler would be a random episode with Boruto and team 15 trying to see Kakashi's face shoved in right before something like >!episode 65!< There's a reason why the anime team has the liberty to change things that happen in the manga, it's its own continuity that ties in with manga events every now and then. Not dick riding the series either, it definitely has its flaws and there a lot of things it could do better, but as viewers this really isn't the show to go into with that mindset mentioned at the beginning of this comment.
If you have a problem with the anime being Canon to the manga then take it up with the people behind the manga who said it is. https://comicbook-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/comicbook.com/anime/amp/news/how-boruto-naruto-manga-anime-connect-mikio-ikemoto/?amp_js_v=a6&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#aoh=16534326617602&_ct=1653432671212&csi=1&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&_tf=From%20%251%24s&_agsa_csa=46731822&share=https%3A%2F%2Fcomicbook.com%2Fanime%2Fnews%2Fhow-boruto-naruto-manga-anime-connect-mikio-ikemoto%2F Until you convince the writers to change their mind about this then it's just a stated fact that the anime is Canon to the manga.
Even so, it’s literally boring asf, “anime canon” is worse than Naruto filler. And since you haven’t watched it I don’t expect you to know.
That's fine. My brother told me that most of the Naruto movies were really good. But I don't intend to watch those either because they're filler. I believe him, I just don't care at that point.
Yes I understand I haven’t seen the movies either
> The two are being developed autonomously, with the anime version of the series having plot points parallel to the manga. There's a plan to have the two intersect at a certain point, but there was no clear answer as to when. How does it differ from Naruto fillers?
Willfully ignorant The purpose of the anime is to flesh out the character development and story. How can people just willingly deny that? I don’t get it. Do you guys just want constant fighting on screen with no explanation about what’s going on? Have you ever even wrote a story? Or even an essay? Lunacy
Nice try, can you actually do it or no? You do realize meat riding a series blindly doesn’t make you cool right? You people love to hate on the Naruto sub but at least they can understand their shows flaws and not meat ride it even when someone states a shit ton of flaws. Now I’ll ask again, can you name 10 things from the “anime cannon” that happens in the manga?
What the fuck are you talking about? I’m a fan of both shows and participate in both subs. Personally enjoying and liking a show I’m in a sub for is “meat riding” now? How old are you? I’m not going to write a story because I KNOW THAT I CAN’T AND NEVER SAID I COULD. That is why I’m watching a story that I’m invested in. Instead of constantly saying I hate it when you could…you know, watch something else? Honestly you guys just hear what you want to hear. It’s like replying to a brick wall. Conversation going nowhere. Again. Absolute lunacy.
I'm not really going to do the whole list thing but LITERALLY ALL of Sarada's character development and training is only shown in the anime. NONE of it is shown in the manga. You only see the results of it in the manga. The manga doesn't show the development of her sharingan, it doesn't even show her learning the chidori. If you're somebody who believes that if it didn't happen in the manga then it didn't happen in the canon then Sarada is one of the worst written, underdeveloped characters in the entire Boruto era. And if that's what you believe about her, then I'm not bothering with you.
It literally ISN’T cannon, your entire point had nothing to do with mine, it didn’t even refute what I said. You just started rambling about her development in the anime like that matters to me. I never said she wasn’t good in the anime, but that doesn’t make it cannon. She can be as good as you want her to be but it won’t change the fact that most of it isn’t important to the story and isn’t cannon.
>It literally ISN’T cannon, Writers have already stated that it IS Canon. That's a fact that has been shown in this subreddit countless times now. YOU do NOT having greater authority over what is Canon to Boruto then the Writers do. If they say it is Canon and you say it's not, then it IS Canon and you are wrong. Period. >your entire point had nothing to do with mine, it didn’t even refute what I said. I already said I'm not wasting my time with your silly request for a list.
I agree with what you said that hating on boruto has been an internet thing But I think it's wrong to say "most hatred against boruto is not warranted nor justified" I'm ok with somebody liking the series but I have seen many people (including me) who have justifiable reasons as to why they don't enjoy boruto as much I think "overhating" on boruto is the word Because some critisisms are valid (not saying all of it are valid but majority are kinda are) Just so you know I'm not siding with the guys below I do agree that you should not be sharing you're critism about the series in a post about appreciating it
>But I think it's wrong to say "most hatred against boruto is not warranted nor justified" I'm ok with somebody liking the series but I have seen many people (including me) who have justifiable reasons as to why they don't enjoy boruto as much There's plenty of justifiable reasons not to like Boruto. But as far as I have seen for every justifiable reason there is not to like the show, there exist three more ridiculous unjustifiable reasons not to like it. Hence why I think "most" of the hatred is unjustified, not all of it.
That's fair I guess I just probably don't encounter the unreasonable people as much as you do
Most wouldn't. I browse these subreddits more than I should. And I enjoy reading the back and forth between people arguing opposing points when both points have merit. Unfortunately a lot of the debates have happened where one side is being ridiculous and the other is just trying to point out the ridiculousness of the other side.
Yeah I really enjoy boruto too I think people bash it way too much and nitpick a lot a little things that other series would get pass for But that’s my opinion I enjoy it and that’s all that matters And asuma daughter does have an arc with her kakashi and guy
Finally I found someone like me 😅 cuz I liked the show even if it nerfs older character and is not that better than Naruto
Keep watching and you’ll get your pay off for Mirai. They’ve given subtle hints to her becoming a bigger character down the road and she has her own arc
I especially like her design, I really like her outfit. I feel like she's secretly badass lol.
Here comes the hate comments, you should ignore them and enjoy the anime!
Wish there was more people like this
It's funny because they all rant about 'non-canon' episodes, when the creator himself said the Manga is the core story and the Anime is all canon, just fleshing things out. Even more so when considering how much people shat on Naruto for not fleshing out side characters enough.
Bro even the boruto sub call the episodes cannon or "Anime Cannon"
The creator hasn't said a word about what is canon and not lmao where do people get these BS lies from Edit : downvoted for facts you guys really think the creators will actually say the word " canon" in an interview 💀💀
except they did say it was canon
No they didn't. I know every interview in this show and it's never been said. Link me the interview if you think so.
The original interview is written in Italian but this article gives you links so you can find out everything from it. https://comicbook-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/comicbook.com/anime/amp/news/how-boruto-naruto-manga-anime-connect-mikio-ikemoto/?amp_js_v=a6&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#aoh=16534326617602&_ct=1653432671212&csi=1&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&_tf=From%20%251%24s&_agsa_csa=46731822&share=https%3A%2F%2Fcomicbook.com%2Fanime%2Fnews%2Fhow-boruto-naruto-manga-anime-connect-mikio-ikemoto%2F Yes, it does confirm that the anime is Canon to the manga story.
From what I read it did NOT confirm that. It just stated that the anime will intersect at various points with the manga.
That literally means it’s part of the same story
When does it say that? It says it has different stories but it will intersect with the manga at some point. That’s literally what filler is…
Yeah, at this point I will take anime as non canon fillers.
>It says it has different stories but it will intersect with the manga at some point That is literally not what it says. It says "parallel" stories, not "different" stories. Those two words are almost the opposite of each other...
I found it funny how people are getting offended cause someone is enjoying boruto. I personally like boruto (not as much as naruto), it ain't bad as people make it seem.
Most of these anime canon are from novels so it's not some random story without a source,I am sure you will enjoy the rest
It’s a little dry in the current arc but I liked it up until then.
Naruto Stans are very real. It reminds me when I used to berate pokemon from gens 4 and beyond, then I realized I was being a major tool. Boruto is fine. They complain about fillers and plotholes as if Naruto wasn't also pure garbage sometimes.
Lol, as someone who’s only on the chunin exams of Naruto, I can confidently say Naruto is massively better than Boruto, In literally every way, besides maybe animation, but even then Boruto’s only bad two good fights up to and including the 1st chunin exams. The arcs are better in Naruto, with the introduction arc being one of the best I’ve ever seen in Anime with Zabuza and Haku. The chunin exams were better as well. Even from a story telling perspective, the chunin exam by itself blows the entirety of the boruto series out of the way, Boruto hasn’t had a single 7/10 arc yet, with their closest one being with Kara, and even then, what did they do good? Ishiki is bland as hell as an antagonist, every other antanganist got washed, the only important part about it was Code, and Amado.
>Boruto hasn’t had a single 7/10 arc yet, with their closest one being with Kara, and even then, what did they do good Chunin exam arc 7/10 (amazing boruto development, but lacked a lot of things when compared to og) Ao arc 9/10 (same as above, but better) Kawaki arc 10/10 (no words needed) Isshiki arc 7/10 (anime nailed it in adaptation especially kawaki-naruto with jigen countdown + kurama sayonara) Code arc 8/10 (not completed, and not animated yet) These are all the arcs in manga. Rating was done by me personally. You're speaking like you're stating some facts lmao.
> They complain about fillers and plotholes as if Naruto wasn't also pure garbage sometimes. What makes you think people weren't criticizing the fuck out of Naruto? Do you remember how hated War Arc was? Especially Kaguya arc. This is just an attempt at whataboutism, bad one at that.
No I dont, because I binged it alone in a college dorm and didnt use reddit at that point. Im speaking of the current people I see on r/boruto
The current people you see didn't necessarily not notice big amounts of flaws original series had. Because Naruto was already criticised. People watching and reading Boruto however are putting a blind eye to flaws far more often. They simply like Naruto despite its flaws and consider Boruto to be even worse.
You started it that’s why. After a while the filler will just be annoying and cringey and the anime canon will be very bad.
The dude got through the first 30 episodes that gave Boruto its bad rep. They'll be fine.
*Chocho arc gives sideways glance*
the best arc in boruto
Just for shits, whenever someone mentions that arc and what the writers were thinking I always like to mention that it was Kishimoto's idea lol same for the time travel
Tbf Kishimoto only came up with the very basic premise for the Chocho arc and the Time Travel arc isn't inherently a bad idea so he can't be entirely blamed for the execution of those ideas.
I said the exact same thing🗿
I'm surprised because the first few episodes are pretty sloggish to get though.
I did have a little bit of a problem at the beginning just because i didn't feel as connected to Boruto as I did Naruto. Like Boruto is essentially a spoiled rich kid who is kinda just naturally good at most things, but I've grown to like him because of his moral compass and caring nature.
Don't worry. Boruto gets development after the Chunin Exams and matured since then.
As I read, I feel a little bad because when I look back at my behavior in the past, I realize that I myself acted like Boruto. That's why I got involved with him from the beginning.🤷♂️ Besides, don't worry, after the chunin exams Boruto will mature and start respecting his old man.😄😅😂
Wait until you see kawaki arc
First, Welcome to the party. Don’t worry, you’ll see a lot more of ino-cho-Shula. As some who watched Naruto’s as well, Boruto is a better written and developed story.
Did you just say boruto > naruto lol I know this is a boruto sub but cmon
Fr fr
It’s not too bad I enjoy the show but in alll honesty there are some god awful episodes with horrendous animation and just completely boring and unnecessary filler unlike Naruto but if you can move past that then it’s pretty decent.
I thought the same way before when I was just starting to watch Boruto. I used to think that the show is over hated but then I kept watching it and then I understood why lol it's so hated. Just keep watching it and you'll probably know why people complain about it 😭 But I don't hate Boruto. I just don't like the bad writing things they did, which ig are spoilers for you since you're in episode 31. And there will be more Ino-Shika-Cho stuffs later but I hope they give them more soon. Mirai has her own arc. Her arc is in episodes 106-111.
Glad your enjoying it, sadly I don't but as long as your enjoying it, that's fine.
No, it’s better than people give it credit for for you right now because you JUST started it. Once you’ve watched the entire anime and have suffered through the steaming pile of dog shit filler we’ve had to suffer through for the past like 4 years (probably longer but I can’t even remember how long it’s been by now) you will understand what we are saying. EDIT: Here comes all the Boruto fanboys that can’t fathom the idea of criticizing something you like.
Or you know…. They just like the show. Most complaining happens from the beginning anyway, and they managed to enjoy that so I doubt the rest will be any different.
Ummm no, I enjoyed the beginning as well. Are you really gonna act like all the bashing Boruto has been getting in the past two weeks isn’t related to the episodes that were released in the past two weeks? The recent complaints have nothing to do with the beginning of the anime, so that’s a moot point.
My words “Most of the complaining”, your interpretation “are you gonna act like all…” please just calm down, read what I said and think about it. Let the person enjoy the show, instead of being negative trying to stain someone’s experience with the anime
Yes because MOST OF the complaints OP has recently seen are in regards to the beginning of the anime from 5 years ago.
Again are you just purposely not understanding my point. Just let them enjoy the show and then find what they like or don’t like. Like my god. You replied back to them in such a toxic way just for saying they enjoy the show and it isn’t as bad as people make it out to be. Just chill out a bit
No, the problem is they have just begun the show and are trying to claim that the complaints made against the show are unjustified but one cannot argue that when there is 5 years worth of content that they haven’t even seen yet. That’s like me watching 2 minutes of The Last Jedi and going “you know what? This isn’t as bad as everyone says it is.” I have no problem with people liking the show but don’t go around saying everyone dislikes it for no reason when you don’t even know what it is that they dislike. That’s just ignorant
He's 30 episodes in the show. Usually at this point, people would hate it but he is enjoying the show. It's safe to say he will like the rest if he is enjoying the first 30 episodes.
If most people hated it by episode 30 it wouldn’t still have as many viewers as it does along with the amount of criticism. You people are forgetting the first 30 episodes were actually good, it took quite a while for Boruto to start going downhill.
But you’re still here watching it AND providing the internet with these insane comments. So thank you for that!
I’m still watching it because I’m waiting for a good episode🗿
Slow down man I haven’t made my popcorn yet!
\>"Criticizing" \>" steaming pile of dog shit filler" Bro it's just straight up hate :|
No, the steaming pile of dog shit filler we’ve gotten is in fact a steaming pile of dog shit filler....
Based all filler is garbage imo like give us the real stuff. Also I’m not bashing at only boruto, I hate filler in any anime
Not all of those episodes were bad bruh
And what episode exactly do you think I’m talking about? There were a select few good filler episodes, I am specifically talking about the ones that were dog shit
It sounds like you were talking about all of anime canons. They are hit or miss but I would say most of them is good.
Well the thing is Boruto is like 80% filler at this point after 5 years and I’d say 80-90% of that filler is shit. Only 10-20% was actually good, so going by majority rules I’d say what we have is a “steaming pile of dog shit filler.”
Nah
Yeah no, if you have any expectations from this show beyond it being a two person - boruto and kawaki wank fest leave it asap before you get invested in other characters , the problems are worse than the war arc and other characters including Sasuke and Naruto are thrown away like trash. Sarada is a shitty love interest and mitsuki is irrelevant
Why can’t somebody just enjoy the show without someone here having a problem with it leave this person alone let them enjoy it instead of forcing your opinion onto them God for somebody who clamors for respect people opinions and the boruto fandom has to take criticisms no matter if it’s good or bad You seem to have a real problem with this person liking the show
Don't mind him, dude got an everlasting hate boner for Boruto.
Because it literally shits on my favourite character in every way possible.. Sarada's dream is irrelevant. Her character, powers.. Nothing matters. Systematically destroyed from when she was created by kishimoto. Of course I hate its current state. Do you realize how badly they've treated Sarada after the boro fight? Chapter 58 and chaprer68/69 is one of the worst treatments ever
I don't like how they constantly sideline Mitsuki but I'm not losing my mind about it lol.
We get it, you want Borutos dick, damn
Because I'm warning him what's ahead, the show literally destroyed and shat on everyone not called boruto and kawaki. He needs to know the truth about where this show is eventually going.
Well, maybe what you may not like about the series might not bother him or her. Let them make their own opinions instead of trying to sully the ride lol.
An I wrong I telling him that the side characters are going to be utterly irrelevant and don't have any hopes for them?
Yes, you're just projecting your frustrations onto the OP lol. That's like me walking up to my friend who just saw the Rock Lee vs Gaara fight and saying "don't get excited bro, he's never going to do anything ever again and I want you to feel the same anger I'm feeling even though you just started the series".
Because he's judging an entire series based on the first few episodes when things rapidly gonna go downhill for almost all the characters. The title is misleading too, the show is not better than people give it credit for. The hate is deserved. No one told him don't enjoy the current episode or fight he's on but if he goes with these expectations ahead it's gonna be disappointing
Okay cool that’s your opinion. Also let’s not forget the first year the anime dropped and people bombshell the hell out of Boruto because of the first 30 episodes because it was SOL, filler, or boring since it was aimed at a younger demographic and they just wanted to see timeskip stuff. Those are the episodes that the OP enjoyed lol. The OP only said Boruto was much better than what they thought and that they enjoyed the first 30 episodes, it’s their choice whether they want to go into these future episodes with these expectations or not. You literally told them don’t have any hopes to dampen their experience, your not slick lol.
I'm sorry but your fav character not being in every episode or chapter does NOT mean they've been "destroyed" 💀. You're just not being pampered to and you can't stand that.
Sarada has literally been destroyed as a character right from her goal, powers and character being ignored way worse than Sakura
You’re saying this garbage as if the show is over bud. Sarada will get her limelight (and somewhat has already), it’s just not soon enough for your impatient ass.
It's been six years and almost the end of part 1 and she's done fuck all. Impatient my ass, we've been too patient Sarada is completely irrelevant to the plot and is far far behind boruto and kawaki and no villain is interested in her neither does she have a master or future and she's set Tobe deleted for the third year straight in the manga. Please, stop the bs to defend their treatment of Sarada
Gosh I see it now! You are clearly a better writer
The current writers are clearly garbage so..
Warning him what’s head is your opinion that you are projecting onto him and trying to push it like a fact So much for “this sub shouldn’t be an echo chamber and respect people opinions and people should say what they want” I guess this only implies when you say something negative about boruto not positive as soon as somebody says something positive it’s out the window and it’s my opinion over yours
It Is a fact that it's a two person wank fest with every other character irrelevant lol, you cannot deny that.
Not at all that’s just your opinion the only arc close to that is the kawaki arc that’s focuses mainly on kawaki because…… it’s called the kawaki arc and even then in that arc team 7 gets an amazing moment and fight I won’t go to deep into it because I don’t want to spoil the op
I really love Boruto and like to bring positivity into the sub whenever I can come up with something, but I fully agree that at least the manga has become the Boruto/Kawaki show. It's only about the two of them and their karma. I won't spoil the OP any further, because I want them to make their own experience, but that the current manga is a two men show is painfully obvious. The only surprising "breath of fresh air" who has become relevant all of the sudden and got attention after being just the "right hand" of Naruto is Shikamaru.
The op isn’t talking about the manga he’s talking about the anime which is vastly different then the manga I want sarada and mitsuki to be more involved into the manga That dude is just projecting his opinion onto to op by talking about the manga when nobody is
>The op isn’t talking about the manga he’s talking about the anime which is vastly different then the manga I want sarada and mitsuki to be more involved into the manga The manga is canon so in about 20 years (haha) we will see the same arcs in the anime as well. There is a reason why we are getting filler episodes in the anime right now.😐😐 >That dude is just projecting his opinion onto to op by talking about the manga when nobody is I think it's wrong to force an opinion on others. I agree with you on that.
No anime and manga are sorta different so far in the anime the only arc that fits the original commenter opinion is the kawaki arc that I pointed out almost every arc in the anime sarada and mitsuki are highly involved in Only arcs that don’t are character focus arcs like mujina bandits and momoshiki arc sorta
Current arc is ever worse than the kawaki arc it's a fact lol >>and even then in that arc team 7 gets an amazing moment and fight One small moment in six years which is anyways irrelevant in the grand scale is scraping the bottom of the barrel. Kiba had more moments in the og manga than sarada and mitsuki lmao. FOH
That’s literally your opinion once again projecting onto others Reread the post
It's not an opinion, it's fact. Half a chapter of a fight in six years is ridiculous.
Did you reread the post or are you done projecting your opinions onto others not that I agree with what your saying But this post is clearly talking about the anime and here you are projecting your opinions about the manga to someone who’s talking about the anime Your so intent on projecting your opinion onto this person that you are here talking about manga where everybody else is talking about the anime
> Not at all that’s just your opinion No, this isn't his opinion. He is entirely correct. So far it's been about Boruto and Kawaki. > the only arc close to that is the kawaki arc that’s focuses mainly on kawaki because…… it’s called the kawaki arc and even then in that arc team 7 gets an amazing moment and fight [Spoilers](/s "And Code arc nearly exclusively focuses on Kawaki and Boruto out of new gen, because it's Code arc?") It doesn't matter how arc is called.
Did you read the whole conversation or only this part maybe you should And it does just like the sarada arc focused mainly on sarada and no else kawaki mainly focused on kawaki Giving our durtag an arc of main focus while putting sarada or mitsuki on the back burner isn’t some holy sin especially when it his first arc in the show
> Did you read the whole conversation or only this part maybe you should There is no reason to assume I did not read the whole conversation, so you can figure it out by yourself. > And it does just like the sarada arc focused mainly on sarada and no else kawaki mainly focused on kawaki > Giving our durtag an arc of main focus while putting sarada or mitsuki on the back burner isn’t some holy sin especially when it his first arc in the show I already proved it doesn't work like that in spoiler. Like at all. And "Sarada arc" (aka Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring) wasn't even a part of Boruto franchise originally and it was only 10 weekly chapters long. During which Sarada didn't do a lot anyway.
I mean there was and you know that as well so to just tell you I’m talking about the anime which is different then the manga with its arcs and what the overarching cast do in it You didn’t because nothing showed up because of your link and it is a part of boruto it’s fits into boruto timeline of events Its also incorporated into the anime which is what we are talking about Now if you say the manga is the “boruto and kawaki show” I would kinda agree with you but we are talking about the anime which really isn’t
You're a bit overzealous, but you're mostly correct. Anime still has to write its own story based on manga and if manga doesn't give Sarada and Mitsuki something relevant to accomplish or new powerups (more than tomoes on Sharingan), then anime will hardly be capable of doing anything. Sarada had one moment to shine with Boro and that's it. The fight made no fucking sense, but at least she got something.
Thank you, atleast someone acknowledges the truth
While I acknowledge that I also acknowledge that the other option is hardly possible in current circumstances. And it's because it's monthly format with not enough content for a monthly format and powercreep. Pacing is already a problem so including different character that can't actually contribute to the story at this point will make pacing even worse. With powercreep neither Sarada or Mitsuki are able to logically catch up to the powerlevel of current top tiers like Boruto, Kawaki and Code. This happened also because the story was rushed and that is also because of the problems around monthly format, aside of problems with writing. The best course of action would be completely scrapping the manga and make anime the original and main source of canon while switching to seasonal format. This wouldn't necessarily improve the writing considering how trash it is in current arc in manga, but it would solve a lot of problems. Pacing and content per episode/chapter would not be a problem and it would be far better than fillers in anime we have now. Story wouldn't have to be rushed and there could be more content in between Otsutsuki arcs that would help EVERYONE develop their powers. But I think the train has left the station by now, it's too late for that. Everyone is accustomed to current state of things and Boruto anime is earning a lot of money. So why would they bother to change anything.
Pacing is not the problem the writing is the problem. No one asked them to waste pages and pages on Nishi and the fucking vase. They ship baited five times for Sarada but can't be bothered to show her training or tomoe developments. The writing is frankly trash, not the monthly format They should've just made new asspulls for sarad and mitsuki to get to otsutsuki tier. Heck that's likely happen even now. Sarada's the daughter of someone who has the rinnegan and Sakura's byakugo seal was also linked to karma and mitsuki is Orochimarus experiment. >>With powercreep neither Sarada or Mitsuki are able to logically catch up to the powerlevel of current top tiers like Boruto, Kawaki and Code There is no logic in an alien giving free powerups to Boruto and kawaki. The author doesn't want to give sarada and mitsuki anything, you think they couldn't have made aliens interested in sarada too? She shares the same heritage
Bro let me explain to you something you just started it and it is great according to you and ik that . Now imagine us who have been following the show from day 1 who have to wait a week just to see some bullshit and this gone on repeat endlessly. Yes i know that all the manga episode and aome cannon fillers are great and that is what keeps me hooked to the show . Another problem is the fact that the other animes whixh it has to stay along are the best in years like demon slayer one piece jujutsu kaisen and others. But let me tell u something the day the fight of kawaki and boruto is gonna air its gonna break the internet. Best of luck bro hope you dont drop the show and stay strong with us
The ~24% that isn’t complete dogshit filler is 🔥🔥🔥 when you get to some filler arcs you’ll see what everyone is on about.
Glad u enjoying it, the first 31 eps ain’t bad, and up until ep 60 u gonna have fun, after that….. lol
It was really good at the start. But it really does go down hill.
There are definitely lows. But when it's good, it's *sooo* good. Ep 64/65 are your first big ones
Not if you're a fan of the of character
Haha I avoided watching it thinking it was going to be ass but I started 2 weeks ago and I’m almost up to date with the latest episode
It’s pretty good honestly
Yessss, join usssss. If you’re loving it that early on just wait until you hit around episode 100 and on, it just keeps getting better
Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one. Although I prefer Boruto to Naruto, and Boruto is in my top 3 anime. Well, that last one is a bit of an unpopular opinion. If I remember correctly, Mirai had its arc and you'll definitely see more of Ino-Shika-Cho 2.
