I'll start through the episodes. Mind you that this is the next generation's first year at the academy:
Episode 2 starts off with
Later that day, Boruto actually manages to land a hit and win the
Ont-op of his other accomplishments, Boruto seems to already have a grasp of the
Next let's move onto Shikidai. In episode two, it was pretty clear that Shikadai eclipses most of his generation in pure strategy and intelligence. He came up with a battle plan which utilized Boruto's
I think his most impressive feat after that, is when he was up against the main girl team and captured them all in a single unsuspecting ambush.
He definitely has larger reserves than Shikamaru at his age.
Inojin. Although we haven't seen much of his performance yet, he does seem to have a good grasp of the beast imitation technique already. Despite the fact that he confirmed in Episode 3, that he hasn't quite mastered it like his father yet, he's still able to produce creations of this
Metal Lee. Honestly I think Metal Lee has shown quite the performance these last two episodes. When Shikadai was dodging his attacks, he made a mental note that if he actually got hit with Metal Lee's kick, he would of been seriously injured (probably because his kick literally made concrete break). After Metal Lee got captured, the purple chakra that consumed him was forcing his true powers out:
I just think overall based on these episodes that the boys have shown a decent amount of skill, at least when compared to the girls.
Excluding: Denki aka Foddernki
Lastly on the boy's side we have to talk about Iwabe. Despite the fact that he repeated the academy for two years, because he disliked studying. I think so far he has the greatest potential in Ninjutsu for his age. We already know based on episode 2 that Iwabe had the best ninjutsu scores when he attended in his regular year, and he obviously has great physical assets too, gaining number one in the year. Although he's much older, you can't excuse his potential overall:
During the flag test, Iwabe managed to utilize the B-Rank Ninjutsu:
This kid is going places, of course if he stays in the series. B-Rank before the Academy ... wow :lol
Alright enough testosterone.
Thus far without a doubt, Cho-Cho is definitely the strongest in her generation when it comes to just overall raw power and strength. She easily tore through Iwabe's Mud Wall with her
Lastly, we'll move onto Sarada Uchiha. Overall she ranked number two in her entire class during the physical assessment for the rookie year, and number number if we include Iwabe. She's clearly one of the most polished girls of the academy year, and most likely the most intelligent of the group, as seen when she was leading the team during the Flag Test. Her most impressive feat thus
To make note for Metal Lee's potential, he got easily nervous around the girls which messed his performance. Although, we still have to give it to Sarada who immediately noticed that Metal was out of commission.
Anyway in conclusion ...
I think that for their first year at the academy, the next generation definitely have potential. Although they aren't perfect ninja yet, and probably won't be until many years to come (pointing at the obvious mistakes, and/or maturity they lack because they are children). They definitely have the potential to one day become great ninja. A year of prodigies.
S/O to Mitsuki -
> Despite the fact that we don't see him until next week, I'll go over his feats really quickly. In his first day of the academy, like Boruto, he defeats Iwabe in a sparring match. However, unlike Boruto, he most likely will defeat Iwabe rather quickly. Showing that Mitsuki is clearly the best in his class in close quarters combat (probably a tie between him and a serious Metal Lee?)
The episode summary goes into detail on how Mitsuki will show just how talented and intelligent he is. These next two episodes will probably show just how much of a gap there is between Mitsuki and the rest of the next generation already. This isn't even counting the fact that Mitsuki already
What do you think of next generation thus far? Who are you most interested in for the future? Do you think they are stronger than Naruto's generation at this point of time?

Though clearly Iwabe with his staff is a force to reckon with, especially when he's at full strength. With that staff there's no doubt in my mind that Boruto would get wrecked in probably like five seconds lmao.Ont-op of his other accomplishments, Boruto seems to already have a grasp of the

thanks to Orochimaru's lab genius.What do you think of next generation thus far? Who are you most interested in for the future? Do you think they are stronger than Naruto's generation at this point of time?
