That’s a long way off but I at least appreciate them taking the time to deliver a quality product (I assume the same goes for the specials since they were originally supposed to be out last year if I remember right). Plus as you said this way there will be a decent sized backlog waiting for them when the anime returns. I still hope we continue to get some exclusive content however since in Boruto’s case a lot of it was better than the manga in my opinion (Himawari especially got some decent development there) Larryb fucked around with this message at 14:36 on Feb 19, 2024 |

*checks outside for flying pigs* The franchise moves to seasonal anime. I never thought I'd see the day.

The official chapter’s out now: https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1019999 Seems Mitsuki’s starting to come around a bit and this isn’t the first time Shikamaru’s figured out something was wrong with this whole scenario. Also Boruto once again shows he’s more like his dad than he cares to admit (Kawaki is basically the Sasuke of this series after all) and Shikamaru and Ino now know that Naruto’s still alive.

Darth TNT posted:But will they remember that part or will the jutsu overwrite or incorporate it somehow The read I got is that details of Omnipotence itself fade to keep the origin of the fake memories hidden so they remain "real" "The concept of Omnipotence won't stick in your memory" "So you'll need to believe without any proof"

For Example Sasuke, believed what Omnipotence changed as fact. However he put his complete trust in Sarada that Boruto was someone worth protecting and was innocent.

It's like he has the best of both his mentor figures whoda thunk it, that might maybe come into play down the stretch (maybe who knows the writing has been actually p good so far but there is no guarantee it won't devolve into ninja arts spam)

But yeah, fair point I think it's good he's not a carbon copy of either and more of his own more mature person that takes the best of both figures. Heck, even Kawaki's more mature than teen Sasuke and Naruto, who were respectively murderous emo edgelord and over-the-top powa of friendship stan. Though I suppose actually having parental figures helps a lot. And yeah, I think it goes to show that the character writing has been quite good for while. The manga's been consistently far exceeding my very low expectations, so hopefully they keep it up.

Still kind of curious how Konoha is ultimately going to end up in ruins by the time we reach the showdown from the prologue though (and how far off we are from catching up to that by this point)

The tree clone gang seem to be headed into Konoha, so that's likely gonna have something to do with it.

Bit puzzled why they're making it a movie instead of a series. 2 and a half hours doesn't seem like a lot of time to flesh out the characters. I suppose they could really flesh it out and just cover the wave arc, or do a speedrun and wrap it up with the thirds funeral

Yeah, a movie seems like a bad choice. An eight episode season Wave arc, with some of the Uchiha flashbacks pulled forward seemed like an easy move. Essentially expand the arc with a lot of the world and jutsu building that Kishi pulled out of his rear end hundreds of chapters in. i.e. Come out and say that Uzumaki refugees came to Konoha, and that Naruto’s parents died in the Kyuubi attack. Basically smooth out some of his background right from the get go. Can still leave Minato being the father a vague hint. Tazuna is old enough and the Land of Whirlpools was close to Wave, would be an easy fit to drop that lore early by having him bring it up. This was my general hope: Season 1: Zabuza + 1 episode finale to wrap up their growth and set up Exam season Season 2: Chuunin Exam and war Season 3: Tsunade + Sasuke leaving Extend cast contracts or recast over timeskip Season 4: Rescue Gaara + Meet spy Season 5: Asuma + Orochimaru/Deidara/Itachi deaths Season 6: Pain/Five Kages Summit Season 7 and 8: War and conclusion. Though would probably cut it down to one single season. Would be nice for it to get two though to wrap up and not rush. Teek fucked around with this message at 06:41 on Feb 24, 2024 |

With Toriyama's very unfortunate passing I thought it might be worth posting what Kishimoto's response was: https://twitter.com/bweezybird/status/1765948254259409341

Very cool chapter. So the inherited whiskers are also Nine tails chakra? Cool! Very cool chat between Mitsuki and Eida. I like how he is under the spell, but because he doesn’t understand love and defines it differently he’s not actually affected the same way. That could be interesting down the line.

New chapter is up. Kurama hid a part of himself in Himawari somehow and is a lil baby fox now. Also Bort just utterly dunks on Kawaki because he actually spent the entire timeskip training, unlike Kawaki.

Good stuff all around. Boruto owns Kawaki, Himawari seems like she might be Relevant and have an ability distinct from Boruto (though I'll be kind of shocked if much happens with this, since Boruto is arguably worse with female characters than original Naruto was). What's the deal with Boruto's eye? I forget what eye poo poo he has going on. Looks like he was using it to help dodge?

Jogan ("Pure Eye") Able to perceive and track chakra and see through dimensional barriers, which I guess lets him see Kawaki's Sukunahikona (shrinking objects down and enlarging them later) and Daikokuten (storing said onjects in another dimension for later use)  can also be used despite the damage to his eye, unlike the destruction of a sharingan, byakugan or rinnegan
