The nerf was to be expected, to be honest.

Like, seriously, if you have 2 characters that can neg diff the entire world, would it be believable to read about something that brings the world to danger and can't be dealt with by Sasuke and Naruto? Would that be interesting for you to read if you knew that every possible enemy that's being introduced can be one-shot by either of them? I don't think there will be something stronger (in terms of raw power at least) than Kaguya, and they had already defeated her, so if not for the nerf, any other "new threat" would be boring and fodder. Not like it won't be now, but at least they won't get negged in 1 panel.

That's why this story should've been about their kids not them. If it was going to be about them they shouldn't be nerfed and bring a strong enemy that don't make them look so goddamn weak. I was expecting them to get stronger after this time, not weaker. Obito and Madara are turning in their graves.

Madara got trolled by Black Zetsu laugh diff.

Not to mention how Kaguya was soloed by plot and asspull.

This. Plus the new series is a buildup to the Boruto movie, so the focus is supposed to shift to the new generation.

He was stabbed in the back and he thought BZ was his will, nothing to do about that...
Naruto and Sasuke got wrecked when they where standing before the enemy, that's a lot worse.

How can you consider Gaiden a buildup or prequel to the Boruto movie, when Boruto himself is only a minor character. Chocho has had more panel time than him.

Both are hardcore Rekages, is the point. Done in the lamest way.

So Sasuke's sword and his pathetic skill in holding sword is not the fault ?
Naruto even told to stay back and let his friend do the Job, but failed, what an embarrasment..

They got suprise attacked by a MS user, even Obito's Kamui was a better tech than this Shin telekinesis
