The studio's probably just kinda scrambling because they've almost caught up with manga but unlike with Naruto's timeskip, this one shifts the status quo in such a major way that most of their potential ideas for filler arcs are now useless. There can't be any wacky adventures of team Boruto when Boruto is one of the most wanted criminals in the world so they're up the creek without a paddle.

“Any fan coming into the fanbase at any time is a GOOD thing” 🎉🎉🎉 So freaking true. As a longstanding Marvel fan, this is the mindset I keep when i start geeking out on characters that most people dont know about.

[@VVopal]

I honestly feel as though the Boruto manga has stronger character development for our main character. I do feel as though it has side character issues in terms of development, but i think thats mainly due to time constraints and having the plot have to ramp up due to where our character starts out. I think Boruto would have done much better as a light novel or something that releases weekly.

[@peacemaker4829]

It's also due to the fact that Kishimoto hasn't been writing the story the whole time

[@TheMaliciousOne767]

The time constraints have nothing to do with side character development. Kodachi simply decided not to focus on the side cast in the manga and let the anime develop the side cast because he was the anime supervisor.

[@swed8506]

No. They just increased the power scaling so bad theres only asspulls to look forward to. Its a power driven plot now. If your not god tier, you dont matter

[@VVopal]

@@swed8506 That's literally almost every modern shounen ever. It's due to something called power creep that is needed to continually add stakes or tension. A manga that does the opposite opm has an entirely different dedicated formula.

[@swed8506]

@@VVopal we're not comparing Boruto to modern shonen. The vid is comparison to Naruto. So that's what we're doing. Okay? Let's stay on track now. Had to make that clear so we don't steer off the track again. What made the series Naruto so compelling was the story it left behind. Power tiers exist in all actions series, but when it becomes only about power, it gets stale and redundant and actually decreases the tension. Once they introduced aliens, it was over.

i reaaaally want to know if Hima is gonna be affected by Eida's power... like... is she gonna forget her brother? since there is a theme of people who love Boruto being unaffected by it (Sarada and Sumire, even if it might just be romantic love since Mitsuki wasn't immune) and Daemon implied that Hima was possibly one of the strongest in Konoha... idk ... maybe if she awakens her tenseigan she will be able to see through the brainwashing or something ... because damn, poor girl just lost everything, both her parents are gone and her brother is going on a training trip

[@bibbobella]

I would be suprised if they didn't go with something along those lines. I mean there are many types of love. I get that her ability itself have something to do with romantic love, but maybe it gets canceled out by family love too. I mean both of his parents were removed from the story, and I can't help but wonder why... If the brainwashing affected them too, why would they bother to remove them from the story beforehand? Wouldn't it have been even more dramatic and heart breaking if even Boruto's own parents didn't remember him? Is could also just be because they knew both Naruto and Hinata would probably listen to Sasuke's daughter the same way Sasuke did, but it seems odd they removed them to begin with if they would have simply been brainwashed too.

I'm predicting that after the time skip - probably in the beginning of Sarada's "training arc" - Sarada will consider going down a dark path to avenge, get stronger, protect, etc. Just like Sasuke, Madara, Obito... but mainly Sasuke. Maybe Orochimaru tries to finesse her or something... At which point, Sasuke will finally confront Sarada's prior questions about the Mangekyou and Itachi (or maybe Naruto/Sakura will tell her, depending if Sarada stays in the village or goes with Boruto and Sasuke). Drawing on the similarities people are making between Sarada and Itachi, I think she would be greatly motivated by Itachi's and Sasuke's history. Ultimately, Sarada would make the right decision and become stronger for it. I digress...

[@nathanhosea489]

Orochimaru ain't finessing anyone anymore. The guy has changed, ever since Sasuke was convinced by Hashirama and Itachi to change his ways, he's also followed Sasuke in changing his ways. And Naruto is not going to be involved in her arc - he will be sealed until the final fight with whoever comes after Kawaki. Sakura, though, will get involved, but only after Sarada convinces her that Boruto is Naruto's son.

You explained it very well, Boruto really is a good story, and a continuation of Naruto, i think it honors it.

"No anime canon character showed up in the manga" Literally Sumire

[@Ragman312]

I disagree with the theory that Sarada's Sharingan was awakened through love. I think she was conflicted inside. She wants to meet her father, but she also wants to confront him with all her questions and pent up anger. She suffered not having her father in her life and not having her questions answered, so now that she's about to meet up, all that emotion is bubbling to the surface.

“I'll say this one more time, this is my story. Except, for just a little bit at the start, it's the story of me and my dad.” - Boruto Uzumaki

[@NotTheNebraskaMan]

Thank you, sir. I was literally waiting for you to make this video!

[@Doomzdeh]

Boruto should have been born with the Rinnesharingan. I said it. He has Hagoromo’s chakra and Hamura’s from his parents. It would’ve made so much sense for him to have Byakugan and Rinnesharingan, and for that to be something that makes him feel like an outcast. It also could’ve been what compelled the Otsutsuki to take Boruto seriously, and would’ve been a good reason for them to take an interest in him. Naruto shouldn’t be running around everywhere. He is the Hokage, and he should stay in the village. And Sakura is the Head Medic. She should stay too. We should’ve had Boruto and his team handle the threats at the beginning, so that they aren’t overshadowed and so that OP characters aren’t nerfed. The first major arc we should go with? The Shin Arc. Have Team Konohamaru run into Shin, who takes an interest in Sarada’s Sharingan, Boruto’s Rinnesharingan, and Mitsuki’s similarities with Orochimaru. Have Boruto and the Gang ultimately defeat them on their own. Honestly, my main problem with Boruto is that Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto have to take out every threat, rather than let Boruto or any of the Genin take care of it. It’s like if Naruto was a story where Hiruzen and the Jonin constantly showed up to take care of every issue. It’s boring, and it undercuts our main characters as they grow and progress. Would’ve been even better if Hanabi was Boruto’s Sensei instead. Could’ve opened up some Hyuga plotlines where Hanabi teaches Boruto to use the Byakugan.

[@painkration]

this is exactly what i was looking for. Appreciate it so much

[@fundur2816]

kinda off subject but something I'm curious about if Sasuke wanted he could use Rasengan due to having seen it with his Sharingan so much, but could Naruto learn and use Chidori utilizing Sage mode to negate the tunnel vision aspect of it

[@Aqsticgod]

actually probably, you know, you might be on to something there...but it would make sense, you essentially need the sharingan to be aware of your surroundings and be able to counter should it fail, sage mode would provide the same level of awareness if not more so...

[@moneybag2times53]

Yea but it will never happen, Like naruto can literally make a more broken version of chidori something like "Sage Art: Chidori" Where he amplifies the chidori with sage mode idk lmao. But it wont happen

[@00mike91]

Chidori is dependent on Chakra nature. Sasuke can definitely do rasengan though just not on the effectiveness naruto can because wind is OP in the naruto verse lol

[@daniilivanov7052]

I've recently read all of boruto and naruto until the timeskip. And boruto is a lot worse. Panels, art, story, characters (screen time) etc. It is not AS bad as some people claim it to be, it is actually quite interesting. I really really hope that 2nd part will change for the better. Also, for some reason there is not a lot of memorable fights in boruto, at least for me.

[@scottysbottom5769]

It’s just as bad as War Arc era Naruto.

[@richardpeach3046]

I have to give it a grain of salt in comparing the two because I’m not developing anymore so of course it’s less impactful and less memorable but is that due to the content or the stage of life if it’s readers?

[@willdiesel8431]

That legitimately sounds just as bad as people make it out to be. Not sure what you were trying to get across but it wasn't anywhere close to a ringing endorsement.

[@kareemelrefaay5300]

I think sasuke changed his mind because of the MS as he knows uchiha needs a very strong emotions to awaken MS so sarada must know something he doesn't to make her able to awaken MS so i don't think that he's a great father or that he trust her more than himself but his knowledge of the sharingan and his trust that MS couldn't be achieved by just boruto lying to sarada and it needs more than that especially when it's not a tragic emotions that triggered it

i think filler episodes are good , because you can bond over some characters , and you see them bonding with eachother . remember in naruto all those fillers mision naruto was paired with diferert ninja from konoha, showing you bonds created, if you skip all fillers, you wont understand why all leaf simp for naruto -- unpopular opinion

[@XxsilentpersonxX11]

True but you can honestly skip some of the Boruto filler and not miss a thing. The filler just serves as character development for people outside of team 7. Half of the cast in the anime don’t exist in the manga so it’s kinda pointless.

[@Tasty_Tango45]

@@XxsilentpersonxX11 that’s just more of the manga’s fault and they’ve wrote themselves into a hole with 95% of the cast (older generation and newer generation) not being there, I look forward to how they’re gonna get around them although if they need them I guess they could just spond them in and pretend they’ve always been there…

[@XxsilentpersonxX11]

@@Tasty_Tango45 that true but you can look at it like this. The story of Boruto is told from the events of the past that led up to the current time somewhere in the timeskip (obviously). The manga tells the important parts of the story like only including specific characters that played a important part to the overall story and the anime tells all the minor details like for example Boruto goes to thunder burger after mission… to chill with ….(people that aren’t in the manga) or on this day naruto went to hang out with himawari for the day. All information that you can say did happen just not important to the overall story compared to how Boruto got the karma or how does iishiki play into the overall story.

ok, the intro about how long Boruto is convinced me to give it another shot. i started with the anime, which was... ok before trying to transition over to the manga and was a little lost. When i tried to place where in the manga i was in conjunction with the anime it didnt seem to match up very much. i assumes it was due to filler but got discouraged and just ended up droping it.

Even though I dislike Boruto, I heavily appreciate your efforts to introduce new fans to the lore. I was in Japan last month and I looked all over Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto to find Naruto stuff (Merch, figures, etc) and found almost nothing; I even went to one of the only two Naruto parks (Shinobi-zato. This park was awesome!). I also looked at every single Jump Store in each city and I was surprised to see so little.

I really don't understand why people jump around episodes and call stuff "filler" any episode that doesn't have a major Fight in them.

[@Razertheblueandred]

The biggest difference between Naruto and Sasuke being bad fathers is that Sasuke is legitimately attempting to correct his mistakes. Naruto is only barely attempting to parent Himawari, not correct his mistakes with Boruto. And Sasuke, on the other hand, is trying to earn respect from Sarada, by A, doing what he did in Parent and Child Day, or B, by believing in her with the new reality, despite believing that Boruto killed Naruto, his best friend. And also, thanks for acknowledging that Email i sent you about Konohamaru teaching the incorrect team.

[@d.p.6657]

Also I believe the same reason Naruto is a bad dad is the same reason he was having trouble with love for hinata in The Last.
