All shinobi's have tragic lives. You can't be a ninja without having one.
The exclusion to this comment would be the new generation we have now until an actual conflict arises
Yeah, his is up there with them. Not on par, but up there. The difference is he had Zabuza to cope.
None of them know what being a shinobi even is at the moment. Ikemoto is doing a shit job compared to what Kishimoto did in Pt.1
Wave Arc is when Team 7 found out what shinobi were.
CE Arc they witness power struggles, and politics at its finest.
etc. etc.
Boruto I don't think a single eventful/impacting thing has happened. Nothing even close to how moving Zabuza & Haku's death were to Team 7.
New Generation is lit though, don't get me wrong.
I agree...Pt.1 generation basically cleaned up after Hashirama and Madaras generation which in turn left nothing for this new gen to fight for
You make a good point. But I get the feeling we are moving beyond the politics of Part I albeit slowly.
For instance the Fire Daimyo's son seem to be forming a bond with Boruto Kawaki's words about the age of the Ninja coming to an end....I get the feeling that something amongst the Daimyo of the 5 great Nations are gonna be involved somehow. Just a guess though.
