Schubalts posted:Shikamaru's powerset is extremely helpful in fights, though. He just needs to hit Code with a single shadow binding and the fight will skew massively in their favor, whether Code can break free or not. Shikamaru's powerset is only balanced out by him being a lazy rear end in a top hat as a kid, and that people who know what he's fully capable of would never give him the chance. In a group fight against one person, Shikamaru is some of the best backup around. That’s true. I just don’t have much faith in the current writing to be able to do Shikamaru justice.

I worry that it's just gonna be hurr hurr, the space between worlds is darker than any shadow, you drop into one of your little claw marks and you're never coming back out again followed by several panels of code clawing their way out of a scratch mark with a bunch of hands trying to drag him back in, finished with Boruto sage punching his rear end back into the hole for good.

In regards to the anime, looks like Sarada’s a Chunin now. Makes sense honestly

I mean, the best asset Shikamaru can offer is the IQ he used to have, and the strategies he can come up with the power sets at his disposal.

Decent episode this week, Sarada becoming a Chunin makes sense and we even got a rare tactical use for the Sexy Jutsu. Next time: Kawaki teams up with Denki’s squad, could be interesting.

Mangaplus link You know what, this was an awesome chapter and I look forward to next week. There is no way Amado isn't using that "empty" Karma to take over Kawaki.

Okay, that's pretty cool. Momoshiki is just going to heal Boruto right up isn't he? This is going to end up pointless.

Can't believe the whole flashforward in chapter 1 was just Boruto's dying dream. More seriously, if we want to talk about power creep Amado has risen the bar.

The curse marks are going to fight and destroy themselves in a new body / the curse marks turn into their own monster! Nah probably not though.

It was a really good twist to have it seem like Boruto regaining control would convince Kawaki to back down and then no, Boruto also wants to kill Boruto.

Huh. Didn't expect that to be the end of the Ohtsutsuki in Boruto but good riddance. Only Isshiki had any style. Even if I'm the only one, I still love Code's claw portals. Him yanking Damon out of his head cracked me up.

It's nice that the story's been chugging along after what's felt like chapters upon chapters of waiting around. Also lol I was so ready to lament how STUPID Shikamaru would have to be to not notice a bigass leather belt glued to his neck but it wound up being a really good ploy

drat it ok, I said Eida’s power sucks rear end (and I still feel a type of way about it) but it’s being shown off real well this chapter and I like how it’s being countered. If this keeps up I might start liking this gaggle of tacky losers.

Still kind of curious how Kawaki winds up going nuts and destroying the village as we saw in the flash forward at the beginning of the series (Boruto himself looks a little older there as well so we’re probably going to get a timeskip eventually)

My current theory is Amado incarnates using the “blank” karma he gave kawaki

Yeah, future Kawaki doesn't really line up with the current one. There are a lot of paths there for it to be someone else, it just becomes a bit of a bait and switch since Boruto still calls him "Kawaki".
