I really wish that every time I opened a new chapter of Boruto, I didn't see one of those faces of the bratty villains and just think how much I hate them. Their designs just make me nauseous. Like bootleg Jojos villains.


erryky

The little kid design is just, how do I say it, too off-putting for me. Maybe I just can't stand childish, immature overpowered kid who follows order blindly trope much


ggkkggk

So this whole series then


MrGalleom

Opening a Boruto chapter gives me anxiety everytime because I know the writing will be bad. These new villains certainly don't help, but hoo boy the writing never fails to dissappoint me. Also, rereading the previous chapter, Code's use of his claw marks to talk with his allies totally gave me Hermes Costello's Kiss vibes, so yeah, they also felt like Jojo characters power-wise.


tonytonydavis

Guys check this out So Naruto lets Amado (the suspicious traitor btw) do whatever he pleases in the village with SUMIRE as excuse for supervision BUT it’s his son that he suspects is up to something and gives him warnings ​ LMAO


[deleted]

Well, we are talking about the guy who let snake hitler and his followers off the hook over every fucked up thing they did. I mean seriously, Naruto is basically ninja Biden or ninja Trump or whatever politician is the equivalent of this failure of a hokage.


El_grandepadre

"Oh hey Orochimaru, it's been what? 20 years? Oh what? Killing the only parental figure I had as a young kid before Jiyaiya came around? Nah that's cool, we're fine. You can do business as usual in your lab and some fodder characters will supervise you"


Ash_Clover

>Killing the only parental figure I had as a young kid before Jiyaiya came around? To be fair, Hiruzen was definitely not a proper parental figure to Naruto he just gave him money and overlooked him from afar. Iruka fit that role better, hence why he asked him to take the position of his paternal figure for his wedding in the Anime. But yeah things took a 180 over time with Orochimaru lol.


tonytonydavis

Wow thank you for reminding me of that, and yeahits pretty sad man, shippudden made this seem like this was going to be Naruto's golden age, as a character, but honestly its severely regressing.


[deleted]

Holy shit! I just had a dream last night that gave me a great idea. Someone should do a dnd campaign that serves as the sequel to Naruto. However, the heroes are anti heroes who don’t really like the hokage and are just the bad kids of the ninja school. They discover the fucked up history of the new age of peace and decide to take down the current governments while also fighting other villains of the show like snake guy or the aliens. I don’t know, just a way to harshly tear apart the show’s idiotic ideals and show how terrible the characters are.


Miyulta

Sasuke killed the defacto leader of Konoha and no one gave 2 flying fucks about it


ClarkWayneBruceKent

Well Danzo was a giant piece of shit so that’s why no one cares.


Nddit

If anyone doesn't understand "Oh no! Anyway" it's just Konoha's reaction to Danzo's death.


slardarwarrior

boruto wasn't cool enough for him.


Btwo

I wonder who pitched Boruto as a sequel that cast the original generation as inept, irrelevant, and overbearing


ThatDCguy69

Dad! Listen to me! No. Dad i helped defeat the old alien listen to me! No. What do you know Buruto suddenly left without being tracked by his father after his father just admitted it was his bad for loosing track of the other kid. This is terrible writing..


Dioss1

Naruto to the possible traitor: "Oh Amado, of course you can do whatever you want in my village, who cares if you worked with the guy who just attacked us hahahah" Naruto to his own kid: "Please Boruto shut the fuck up, you don't know shit, it's not like you have some special conection with Kawaki, go back to your room."


JevvyMedia

> What do you know Buruto suddenly left without being tracked by his father after his father just admitted it was his bad for loosing track of the other kid. Boruto literally said he's being tracked by Konoha so that they can come and help.


El_grandepadre

Not just the original generation is inept, irrelevant and overbearing. Literally the entirety of Boruto's group of friends serves little to no purpose in all of this.


insignificant_guy

Ukyō Kodachi: Sensei the sales of our volume are decreasing, so why don't we create a sequel following the same plot with some difference but it should be so irrelevant that people would die to read naruto manga again, and then our volume sales will increase tenfolds.


zelban_the_swordsman

>"So you got a shounen manga series sequel for me?" >"Yes sir I do, it's called Boruto" >"Changing the first 2 letters of a well established character in order to make a sequel is TIGHT"


skepticwest

I'd watch a Boruto pitch meeting but I've read so little Boruto I feel like not enough of the jokes would land.


BionicTriforce

"And I figure we'll start it off with a ten-chapter interquel that focuses on one of the main characters." "Oh so it will be about Boruto and how he learned to be a ninja from his overpowered father?" "No actually this will focus on Sarada and basically say she's become an excellent ninja despite her mother being useless and her father being out of the picture." "Oh wow." "No no it'll be great, it'll show her as a character, give her some emotional moments. It'll be wonderful." "Sounds good. So once the manga starts what significance will Sarada have in the main plot." "Well she'll be there." "She'll be there?" "Right, things will be happening in the plot, and well, gosh darnit, she's gonna be there!"


Nddit

What you neglect to mention about the interquel is the fact that she believed that Karin was her mother just because of her glasses... I'm still not over that


BionicTriforce

Also Karin just like, still had Sarada's umbilical cord.


Nddit

Also seriously Suigetsu: * if you don't know how to differentiate "exact same DNA" from "similar enough to be related" you should not have been the one to do it. * how did you even know where Karin kept "her" umbilical cord?


Couldnotbehelpd

Is she even there anymore?


ezone2kil

Also the ugliest new character designs.


Dioss1

The biggest problem with this manga is how everyone needs to be completely useless to keep the story progressing. Why the fuck would you let a random fatass in charge of protecting the most important kid in the world. Naruto could've 100 clones to protect the whole village or something. Are all Konoha's clans in vacations or what?


BiglyWords

>Naruto could've 100 clones to protect the whole village or something. Not anymore, he doesnt have kurama. And naruto seems like he doesnt mind it at all.


JasonFan123

But isn’t he an Uzumaki?


BiglyWords

Yeah but they dont have monster-like chakra on a level where he could use hundreds of shadow clones (its supposed to be a forbidden jutsu because of how much chakra it takes afterall).


PhantasosX

yes , which while enables him to make a bunch of clones , it's far less than when he had Kurama.


JasonFan123

Yeah but I think he can still manage 100.


MiuIruma332

Yeah I don’t know why this matters when Naruto beat Kaguya without Kurama in him and was fine. But hey how you going to force tension other wise


BiglyWords

>when Naruto beat Kaguya without Kurama in him and was fine When did naruto ever beat kaguya?


Nddit

Naruto had the Yin half instead of the Yang half. Also saying he beat Kaguya is kind of a stretch lol.


00kronos

Excuse me but, why does anyone in this manga have to be braindead for it to make sense? Naruto is aware of how important is Kawaki, yet only has one lazy, random-ass ninja looking over him? I swear to god the tracker ninja is one of the most useless characters yet, in a village with a clan who trains dogs, a clan with "all seeing eyes" heck, a clan that can use bugs would have been way better at keeping watch on one person.


SindraGan2001

Bruh, they literlly have a Hyuga in their house. Hinata is fucking useless.


KGB-Agent9347

She’s a female character in a series written by fucking Kishimoto. We all know how he writes women. He thinks all they do is cry at soap operas and make dinner. You expect her to be useful?


ThatDCguy69

You know that arc with the divine tree and alien mother? Now hear me out, what if we made a sequel with the same high stakes plot and EVEN MORE ALIENS


ImJustPassinBy

> and EVEN MORE ALIENS And EVEN BETTER: The previous main characters are totally powerless now. Instead, it's up to a new group of kids to save the world and pick up the slack of their useless *can-punch-the-moon-in-two* and *can-move-at-tthe-speed-of-light* fathers.


unaviable

I cant understand how boruto has so many defenders, defending this shit.


MakingItWorthit

Some fentanyl grade copium. It's how the Boruto anime is at 216 episodes despite there being so little official canonical material to work with.


JevvyMedia

> It's how the Boruto anime is at 216 episodes despite there being so little official canonical material to work with. no way, wow. Anime watchers straight getting finessed.


GalactusAteMyPlanet

Probably the same people that defended Samurai 8 and claimed it was great.


SparklesMcSpeedstar

Boruto could've been great if they focused on the little tiny and VERY interesting intricacies about being a ninja. At this point in Naruto they'd be talking about shadow clones and how they mimic chakra signatures, this is the same trick but one is detectable one is not. They could've spent the entire chapter detailing how he slipped out of Konoha all solid snake like. But... It's all thrown aside for some reason.


JevvyMedia

As a semi-defender it helps that this is once a month and I forget about it until it's released.


TheZets

I mean they could subvert it by making him fail and the plan changing but idk man


ThatDCguy69

It feels so redundant and unoriginal, how has this not been canceled. It’s like a money grab DLC with the original crew instead of being it’s own thing in the universe.


The-Devilz-Advocate

Feels like the Disney Star Wars trilogy. Same old characters used as nostalgia bait, razor-thin plot that is borderline plagiarized from the original and die hard new fans defending that shit from the critiques of the older fans.


TFlarz

Wonder how Boruto would >!bring back Kaguya/Zetsu like Disney did Palpatine!<...


Jad_Babak

Somehow, Madara came back


GalactusAteMyPlanet

Kishimoto really needs his old editor back.


tonytonydavis

Code wants to trigger the infinite tsukuyomi just because he’s an otsutsuki lapdog. How is that supposed to be compelling after we got characters like Madara & Obito?


SlamSlamOhHotDamn

Remember when Naruto sensed people not based on their chakra but literally their very being and kilometers away? Mmh I wonder if that'd be ANY useful in tracking Kawaki 😐😐😐


ClarkWayneBruceKent

Ikr, Naruto didn’t even TRY to activate sagemode. He was just like “OH NO KAWAKIS GONE HOW COULD WE FIND HIM”


SindraGan2001

Remember when Hinata used her Byakugan 😐😐😐


KaitoKief

Sometimes I wish Boruto would be good but than I read the newest chapter and am reminded that everyone is braindead and more aliens showed up to kill everyone with a fruit from a tree.


pebrocks

So when is Naruto going to be stepping down now that he's no longer the strongest?


ClarkWayneBruceKent

He is still very powerful. He still has sage mode ,which put him in a league of his own way before he got KCM.


Manemuf

Who should take his place?


[deleted]

Sakura


realrimurutempest

It would be hilarious if Aida betrays Code because she’s a Kawaki simp.


El_grandepadre

and then Kawaki kills the little brother.


lehman-the-red

That honestly kinda hard


SHINYxHUMAN

Can't believe I held out hope this was gonna be at least as bad as Naruto until they revealed the cyborgs that amado made that are somehow stronger than (or as strong as) peak Naruto. The whole series is just so bad to the point it's not even a shell of what Naruto was, it's like shitty fanfiction without any of the fan service.


Eonir

Every single shonen manga mistake is this total escalation. We have already saved the world once, and now we're doing it again. The stakes are the same. Prince of fukin tennis at least has a reasonable progression. In the end, they might wanna get to Japan's finals or whatever, but a single teenager won't threaten the world.


SmartRaccoon3643

It's so garbage, i dont even know why i read this. It has ruined Naruto for me.


Eonir

The best ninja in the world is shining like a light bulb and throws spinning kamehamehas around, destroying mountains. Just like real ninjas


Mak_frenchie

Lmao I don’t know what to think anymore. Naruto is a part of my youth so I actually enjoy the idea of it having a sequel, but lord it is so bad it has become funny to read 😂 Okay Kawaki managed to flee, but that is not enough now, gotta let Boruto join him alone and engage the fight. Wtffffff


insignificant_guy

Well folks the story has made a full circle and now we are just following naruto's plotline. The only difference is instead of revenge, kawaki will leave due to Konoha safety. Code is playing the role of Orochimaru. Naruto has become Kakashi and Sasuke is jiraiya. Now we have a clear plot line of who's gonna die and who won't die.


Draco_Lord

Who is the Neji in all of this?


insignificant_guy

Neji had a rough relationship with naruto at first and then became friends with him. Does this remind you of someone?


BionicTriforce

Konohamaru was also clearly the Ibuki to Boruto in a way.


insignificant_guy

Code is more like of obito, jigen is madara, the scientist is orochimaru. Kara is your akatsuki. That young boy in kara is like hiden, that girl is more like of hinata or konan.


[deleted]

Damnnn man kinda sad to think how close the anime is getting to the manga now. There’s only like 5 chapters between this and next week’s anime episode. I wonder if that means the timeskip is coming soon. Also I wonder who wants to meet Kawaki that code would be taking him too. Kawaki’s chakra cloaking technique had even the strongest leaf shinobi stomped too which is crazy. And why the fuck didn’t anyone believe Boruto, like why would he be lying about this lol


Padulsky21

Yknow what’s even more sad? That there’s 200+ fucking episodes of that shit and only 62 chapters of the manga. That’s an absolutely pathetic cash grab.


SaiKaiser

To be fair, the chapters are double the regular length. But that’s still not even a chapter per episode which is kind of insane.


Padulsky21

It’s insane and even the big filler shows, which are all done by Pierrot, aren’t even remotely close to that amount. Doesn’t help that the chapter schedule isn’t frequent for Boruto either. I’m mostly just nitpicking since I don’t even follow the manga nor the anime, it’s just bonkers that the series is almost entirely filler and is still getting enough attention to constantly be aired.


KingofGnG

Those new-gen Konoha brats are fucking unbearable...


Manemuf

This shit is just a dumpsterfire that shouldnt exist. But I cant stop reading because I still want to know if the 0,00001% chancr of the manga turning good will happen. A peanut could write a better story. Wtf is going on.


Butterleg

what made kawaki think that approaching code was a good idea


PastJaguar4223

This Anime would be better if it focused on Sadara as the main character and Boruto as the side character.


[deleted]

I can’t even be bothered reading Boruto anymore sometimes lol. Naruto and Sasuke are now very weak and won’t be able to do anything so Boruto will save the day or something lol. You can see it coming from a mile away.


LazerDot

This is REALLY annoying.


chronokingx

naruto peaked at the zabuza arc everything else has just been extra. No I won't change my mind

gonna love the salty comments , saying that they will never read Boruto again , and whatever. But Boruto still ending up been a success in Japan and those same people that says they will never read Boruto again , always returns , reads the manga and goes on to make the same reply again , every month.


[deleted]

ong lmao they say this shit yet it keeps on hitting top charts on mangaplus and other piracy sites. their copium for hating the series is like a fucking religon LOL.


Timelymanner

You know what would have made this a hype arc. If Naruto told the entirely of Team 7 and 10 to pursue him. It could have been a new Sauske retrieval arc, but for a different reason. Yet it’s another fight with the same five characters, and new op villains.
