Yeah, this series has been surprisingly good so far (to the point where I'd almost say this franchise is better off in the hands of the anime writers than it was with Kishimoto). It's still early so there's plently of time for them to screw things up but so far it seems we've avoided another GT at the very least.

I'm wondering if they will pull a Super and make episodes based on the movie.

Didn't some of the Uchihas not have Sharingan at all? Plus Shisui was already dead, and Itachi's parents and girlfriend sort of accepted their fates.

Wait, Itachi's girlfriend was a cousin of his?

Who could've seen this coming. A giant gatling gun was used for shooting. Oddly, it shoots chakra, seems like loading kunai would've been a better idea...or you know bullets.

With chakra you don't have to worry about lugging ammo around or running out of it. Granted you'd need to be careful of how much chakra you're using, but as an expert ninja Ao can probably control the amount he puts in.

I swear, this show is basically the Anti-Dragon Ball GT with the anime writers seeming to have a better handle on the characters than Kishimoto did. It's leagues better than Shippuden at the very least.

The show might even be the Anti-Dragon Ball Super with how it adapts the movie.

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

Aren't White Zetsu's clones of the first Hokage?

Out of curiosity, for anyone that's following the English version is there a particular reason why the Shippuden dub seems to be stalled at the moment but they went ahead and started on Boruto anyway?

The Shippuden dub is complete; they are releasing the last bunch of episodes soon.

Ah ok, checking again the most recent batch came out last week (we’re currently at 486 out of 500). Why is it they went ahead and started on Boruto first then? Though then again, they’ve already gotten through the manga portion of the story already and the last chunk of the series is just a bunch of light novel adaptions so I guess it doesn’t matter too terribly much.

Speaking of which, how is the Boruto dub so far? Also, does it refer to the main characters as Boruto and Sarada or Bolt and Salad?
The dub is okay. The older voices of characters from Shippuden are hit or miss. The main characters are named Boruto and Sarada.

My guess is to keep Naruto relevant while they reair the reruns of Shippuden

I bet when they get to the new episodes to finish shippuden off they move Bort to reruns or move another show to put Shippuden in a better timeslot to finish the show.
I highly doubt Shippuden will ever be in the spotlight on Toonami again.

Off the subject, not sure why it took so long but they finally finished dubbing the rest of Shippuden fairly recently.

Speaking of dubs, who voices Sarada in the English version of Boruto? She sounds really familiar to me.

It's Cherami Leigh, and it's easy enough to look up.

Did Naruto have any students before he became Hokage?

Like there's about a decade where he could have between the end of Shippuden and when he becomes Hokage right?

Konohamaru and his friends.

Clearly Jiraiya fell through a wormhole at the bottom of the ocean that the Old Ones use to go between worlds and, yadda yadda yadda, zombie Jiraiya.

Wait, Kishimoto wasn't writing this thing this whole time? I thought it was him on story and someone else doing the art.
