Wow! What tension! Boruto really messed up, didn't he? How will he ever regain his father's respect? And what'll happen to Naruto?! Somethings going to go wrong, I just know it.
Also, Gaara is so damn sexy with that haircut.
cough
@The:
One thing for life support, but if he's using a power that's not his own I don't feel like he has any ground to make complaints.
When life offers you foxes, you make a fox… lemonade?

Up until he obtained sage mode and kcm I don't think he had much of a choice but to use Kurama's chakra which isn't necessarily the same as using the Kote or whatever.
I don't get where Boruto was starting to say "Is this my fault?"
Like…How? Those rabbit people had nothing to do with him.
The only thing I can come up with is that the lady sucked in his techniques, and he feels bad because now she's using his power against them. But she did the same with Shikamaru, so it's not all Boruto's fault. And even if Boruto used his own techniques the outcome would be the same.
I don't understand why they had to bring in the bunnies again instead of focusing on the glasses guy and his inventions. Imagine if the invention malfunctioned, maybe it dispelled the wrong technique and Boruto accidentally injured the spectators or almost killed Shikamaru's kid. That'd be more interesting.
Out of curiosity, in Naruto's generation which couple is consider the strongest? Your thoughts on this one.
Depends…Who's Gaara's baby momma?
Isn't his son adopted?
No idea. Since this was a movie I don't think it was brought up.
Huh…Did that ever get a translation?
Not sure if it's the full novel but here you go http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Gaara_Hiden:_A_Sandstorm_Mirage
No idea. Since this was a movie I don't think it was brought up.
The MS translation has a footnote saying the kid calls Gaara "Foster Father" in Japanese.
Huh. The first chapter brings up something I didn't think of earlier. But is Suna run like a royal family? They don't appoint the Kazekage by qualifications but rather by lineage?
Also that summary felt incomplete.

I don't remember any mention of lineage for the Kazekage, but I have better manga to read than to actually fact check that. However, don't most of the Kage in general appear hand down their position to their relative (typically their child or grandchild besides Tobirama)? There's Hashirama/Tobirama/Tsunade, Minato/Naruto, A the III/A the IV, and Ishikawa/Onoki/Kurotsuchi.
Additionally, this video alone made me appreciate the Boruto manga's existence:
After what, 2 years?
To be fair, Naruto had to wait and train for two years before he could see Sasuke again during the timeskip. :ninja:
It was good though. The animation was done really well. But my heartstrings were long dead for this series and I find myself laughing at the dramatic parts.
And Jiraiya's hand appeared! That's worth something.
The final two episodes of the fight was actually very well done. Like it was a great solid episode from top to bottom.
It was solid but somehow still felt like it lacked the punch of part 1.
I blame that more on the length of the fight in the manga and how the thematics of the final battle felt like an afterthought in spire of everything that just happened with Kaguya and the war compared to how the Part 1 fight was the built-up climax of the Sasuke Retrieval arc. And the latter had a lot of emotions involved as well, like Sasuke screaming at Naruto when comparing their pain and Naruto detesting he thought of Orochimaru manipulating Sasuke. The final fight in turn, even though we all knew it was going to have to happen, just felt like it had to for the sake of it. So I think it's more of a thematic and narrative thing than the fight itself not being better, although you could certainly still argue that.
Nope, I think you hit the nail there.
It was just something that had to happen and was obligatory.
But the journey there tired out so many of us.
I agree that from a storytelling standpoint, the Naruto vs Sasuke plot-line seemed like it ran out of gas about halfway through the manga, and that this final fight was more Kishimoto holding himself to that original premise. (I.E: I promised you Naruto vs Sasuke round 2, and here it is even though it doesn't make sense anymore) Frankly it should have never carried the entire manga, very much like the Akatsuki.
I didn't care for the fight in the manga, but seeing it now, well paced, well animated and with appropriate additions through filler I can't help but enjoy it. That doesn't change my feelings on it as a whole.
Me: Last week 2 episodes were cool can't wait to see what will they do this week
Kingdom CGI is back
just why?
The weird 3d bullshit didn't work in Berserk, it doesn't work in Naruto. I mean they were just sitting there.
Eh, whatever. More filler than the last amazing two episodes, but it as still good.
The last episode was another legit good episode, actually expanding on shortcomings of the final chapter. Including
Actually locking Sasuke up for a while.
Naruto may be a jesus ninja, but still needs to know how to act like a leader before he can become Hokage.
The extend of Guy's injuries
….That is right, Boruto. You are indeed lame.

I still can't stop laughing at how a Naruto opening dedicated to a non-canon epilogue has a better drawn and animated Rasengan/Chidori clash than both the manga and anime.
So they are not letting it go, huh!? Not surprised.
I assume it is not going to have many episodes, though, otherwise it would be better to start a whole new anime instead of keep the Naruto Shippuden name.
Anyways, I dropped the anime waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the chunin exam days, but I am such a pathetic sucker for Ino that the simple fact they gave her a bit of focus in this opening made me want to watch this new arc and I'm probably going to do it. Shame…

They've confirmed that they're going to adapt the Naruto light novels (at least the Hinata, Shikamaru, and Sasuke ones).
Got to milk the cow till Boruto decides to let the movie go and start making actual content.
Look forward to it in 2020!
Is this ''Boyhood'' filler arc gonna continue for the next 12 years for maximum milkage?:ninja:
let's talk about the first episode from the childhood arc
so if Naruto only met the third hokage when he's like 4 y/o, who have been taking care of him up until that point? who have been feeding him, dressing him, teaching him how to talk etc..?
also you're gonna tell me the son of the 4th hokage doesn't have enough money to buy ramen?
also at the end of the episode Naruto tells Hinata not to cry because he never cries which is a big fat lie, he cries in the same episode around 5:04 mins mark

I like to disagree a little. Naruto did many things wrong but I always felt like the Naruto and Sasuke rivalry and their ongoing conflict was one of the things Kishimoto did not fuck up.
While it had flaws, the Naruto and Sasuke storyline was far from weak. In fact I like to say it made the series better at times.
Many can say that Naruto have deviated from it's original intention of being a Hokage but it was never initially implied what a Hokage represented unlike in One Piece.
While Naruto is an ideologist little fag, you can't exactly deny his ideology as wrong to have for a Hokage.
Nor can you deny that his entire journey to save Sasuke part of his dream. It was never shoehorned either.
There were a lot of story elements beside Naruto and Sasuke conflict that Kishimoto half assed in but the whole relationship was one thing he did right and carried the story.
Akatsuki, on the other hand, was a terrible antagonist group and a lot of things could be done better. It brought us a rather memorable cast of villains but as a whole should never had served as the overarching big bad.
The Naruto and Sasuke rivalry was fine.
It was more of Sasuke's reasons for turning evil stop making sense halfway through the story, and it felt like Kishimoto shoehorned in all that reincarnation bs to keep his theme going.

Well to me they were awesome while I thought they were mercs who wanted to control the world by way of conflict and shifting balance so that it doesn't end. In a way it was more down to earth, and comparable to real world at the moment.
Too bad it became all about Madara and his desire to create the Matrix because he's Snape gone insane.
new chapter is out if anyone care

That's odd. I wonder why they changed it.

the story is kinda of meh but the animation quality is really good

If madara is supposed to be a reincarnation of one of the sage's sons then how can sasuke also be that same reincarnation if madara is still alive? Reincarnation implies that a previous version of the reincarnation of the original carnation is dead, or at the very least, the original carnation is deceased for there to be considered a reincarnation to come afterward, so how can sasuke be one if madara is still alive, doesn't that imply that all of sasuke's decisions have nothing to do with predestination at all and are instead just his own shitty decisions he made because he's a shitty person?

Kind of unrelated to your theory but the word is "Incarnation" not "carnation".

You're forgetting that Madara died before Sasuke was born. He was brought back with Edo Tensei during the Fourth Great Ninja War. He didn't stay alive all the way until then, he died but appointed Obito to fulfill Operation Tsukuyomi on his own and eventually revive Madara.
