Apparently it is confirmed in the video that "Kishimoto sensei is involved in the original story (the academy days story that Boruto begins) of Boruto anime. Kishimoto sensei has looked at and approved everything. "

"I just watched the Naruto to Boruto TV special that aired yesterday, and I can confirm this, though I wouldn't go so far as to say he's "involved" in the original story.
They had Hiroyuki Honda from the Weekly Shonen Jump Editorial Department as one of the guests. About 2/3rds of the way through they talk to him about it being an anime original story, and he says, "It's a story that can only be seen in the weekly anime." They then ask him if Kishimoto-sensei is involved, and he says that Kishimoto-sensei checks everything and gives the story an OK before it's broadcast.
That said, Ukyo Kodachi, who co-wrote the film with Kishimoto and writes the script for the manga, is credited as Story Supervisor for the anime."
Basically confirms that The Boruto manga writer and and Kishimoto are involved in the anime all of it not just certain arcs . That's why it can be considered canon and not near filler . Just forget filler in boruto anime . It's all canon and that's that .
Everything happening and will happen ACTUALLY HAPPENS IN CANON TIMELINE.
Well all it says is Kishi approves it doesn't mean he is calling the shots on it only that he accepts their vision but I do think Kishi is telling them what to do.
Not really doing any work at all in terms of story development.
In other terms, he really couldn't careless. He wants out and people not getting behind Boruto would force him to come out of retirement and he doesn't wanna do that so he would just nod his head.
Plus it's easy money.
TBH it's good to see Kishi no longer involved in such things, maybe we can finally see some developments happening ALONG with the story instead of a particular person/group only developing and leaving the rest behind.
which would mean less asspulls and more balanced character developments, talking about those females being incompetent in the original story.
Also finally, Kishi deserves a good rest/break from working.
Still, filler unless it actually goes with the main plotline.
Which dealing with everyday life is not! The only thing that made it substancial was the introduction of his unique eye the rest are bogus.

So u want every sungle thing related to Boruto's eye? And yet u want also character development which happens when they're interacting not inverstigating Boruto's eye ! Everything that will happen here is canon whether u like it or not . Next week we're gonna see some Inojin screen time can't wait
With two different canon interpretations of the same arc, movie and manga, and a third one most likely coming, plus an entire manga by another author and now this anime being based off that manga but at the same time not entirely loyal to its source material...
I really think from here on out the discussion of "filler or canon" will just become more and more convoluted.
