rndmnmbr posted:So I have paid exactly zero attention to Naruto since the Sasuke retrieval arc. On a whim I decided to watch the latest Boruto episode, mostly expecting to confirm I was right on quitting. I know nothing but this episode and what I've read online afterwards to explain everyone's magic bullshit powers. Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about it. I never finished Naruto and I'm still enjoying the poo poo out of Boruto. Granted, I only stopped about 10 or maybe 20 chapters from the end; but there was a chapter where a ghost gave someone a new eye or something and the whole thing had gotten so bullshit stupid, even by Naruto's really loose rules that I couldn't bring myself to keep reading. I'm pretty sure there's a good chunk of the middle of the manga that I never bothered to read either. Regardless, Boruto might be a continuation of Naruto but it only requires fairly general knowledge of the story and anything important it explains itself so that you're never really left in the dark.

You can shave off about 200 episodes by not watching the filler, but honestly there's not a whole lot you're missing

dogsicle posted:jesus christ, the anime take on father/son rasengan just murdered me It was about that moment that I finally decided I needed to rewatch the whole episode because it was that loving good *edit* just imagine how Naruto felt while doing that, knowing he was doing something with his son like that which his father never could Umbreon fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Jul 24, 2018 |

This show continues to be better than it has any right to be, thankfully next week we're getting more filler rather than jumping straight into manga content again (never thought I'd say that regarding a Naruto anime).

Yeah I'm blown away by how much I enjoy watching this show. I'm not expecting anything great next week but I don't even care. This show moves at its own pace and I love it.

I'm still surprised Boruto is going to air on Toonami. It's like Dragon Ball Super in a way.

it's nice that this character development has occurred and now Boruto openly loves his father. good show imo

It's weird as hell that Orachimaru is one of the best fathers in the show. He's around more than Sasuke as well as seeming to be more sympathetic to and understanding of their child and has a more stable relationship than Naruto and Boruto. A lot of the secondary characters probably have better paternal relationships I suppose, like Shikadai and Shikamaru or Cho-Cho and Choji, but we see them so little Orachimaru stands out more. Or maybe it's just the shock of him being almost a model parent given how his character spent most of Naruto.

perhaps in the boruto universe, the quality of your fatherhood is inversely proportional to your quality as a person

To be fair, considering what we know about the Uchiha maybe staying out of his daughter's life as much as possible is honestly the best thing Sasuke can do right now (I like Sarada, please don't make her go insane later on).

uchiha go nuts because they care too much . the subject of their affection doesn't need to be another uchiha. so, sasuke isn't protecting sarada from uchiha bullshit, just the fact that the village still low-key hates his guts with good reason. that, or sasuke assumed that no one could love sakura, not even their daughter.

Grandpa Hiashi just wants an genetic cocktail out of his favorite grandson, of Oro can throw in some more good genes and a special eye or four into Mitsuki then im sure he'll be happy for them. Man, Hiashi's masterplan is going beyond expectations, the Borutogan seems on par with rinnengan for detection rolls.

RealFoxy posted:Boruto and Sarada is the perfect time to unite the two legendary tribes so it sound be Boruto x Mitsuki while Sarada marries *rolls dice* Metal Lee Sarada has to find someone to be obsessed with who is necessarily evil. the guy forecasted as being Boruto's enemy in the prologue has to be it

unfortunately sarada is unlikely to escape the propensity for making terrible decisions she inherited from both her parents.

I watched the episodes related to the bort movie and are there any specific reasons they decided to redo the whole thing so that Momoshiki doesn't look like a dragon ball GT villain, other than introducing the bort eyehax plot exposition.

It's almost like in the course of discovering multiple paths to immortality, Orochimaru discovered that the word "immortality" itself is fungible, and that one way to make your name resound through the rest of history is to create a legacy that will forever renew itself in progeny, and that parenthood is one of the most powerful and rewarding paths to a legacy, when said progeny becomes someone that can be respected and famous on their own merits. But nah, it's a shonen anime, so <extended fart noise>

I asked my nephew, who's been following Naruto since he was six, what good Shippuden stuff I should watch, and he had a few recommendations. Bee punched out all of Sasuke's organs. Who would have thought that a rapping anime Hulk Hogan ripoff would be one of my favorite characters?

if your nephew recommended bee beating the ever-living-gently caress out of sasuke then he has good taste and you should listen to him

Mitsuru arc, exploring his relationship with not just Orachimaru but Boruto as well? gently caress. Yes! I kind of hope his clonebro is in it too, but Mitsuru stuff is good regardless.
