Is Sarada as badass or interesting as these female characters?

Damn, she looks scary now.

But in a good way. Is that a new teen titans?

There is too much new information about Raven and I still didn't watch and read everything. But yeah. It's a new plotline for her.

She actually has half brothers and her name is Rachel Roth. Best thing is to see her with her aunt. And trying to save her cousin.:bouncy:

We needed someone like the Major.

You will never find a female of Motoko's calibre, if Kodachi could do something like that and sideline the second rate MC then we'd be onto a winner.

Btw it's a Seinen so a tough call but if Kodachi learnt how to right he could wing it.

One can dream though.

Until then we have Borat and Salad, Bleh.



Boruto is aimed at kids so I can't really fault it I guess. But thats no excuse for weak characters.

All are powerful and all of them are self sufficient fighters who have a role in the story.

Implying female characters need to be DBZ level of power in order to be an interesting and well written character...

One can dream or pray for Kodachi to reach that level.

@bold: There are many more factors but the main issue is weak writing. There's no cure for weak writing except replacing the writer or cancelling and restarting with a new writer.

Of course they don't need to be powerful. Senjo is self sufficient and resourceful.

Tldr ; Senjo is best girl

To answer your question, we all know that Sarada will be nothing more than a love interest for the MC, she won't be badass nor interesting. It's a shounen nekketsu after all.

It is what it is. If you like different kind of story with good female lead then read that kind of series. Boruto is for those who wish for his story. And in his story everyone else is only a supporting character.

So you can't have a good male and female lead? :sdo:

Still trolling Sarada?

1) "Karin is her mom" - destroyed, Sakura was proven to be.
2) "She's weak! She only has 1 tomoe" - destroyed, her 1 Tomoe displayed all the normal Sharingan abilities minus 3 Tomoe prediction & it was revealed that she gains 3 in Sasuke's novel.
3) "She's not a real Uchiha. She doesn't even know Fire Style" - destroyed, she knows her clan's signature technique.
4) "She learned Fireball from Konohamaru, not Sasuke" - destroyed via last chapter of Naruto Shinden (post Shin arc/pre Chunin arc) where Sasuke states he will teach her Katon when he returns and Boruto anime Chunin arc.
5) "Sasuke only trains Boruto" - destroyed via Boruto anime, and Sasuke Shinden.
6) "Boruto is stronger than her. She's the weakest on her team." -
7) "She's only a love interest" - Why was this even said? It was destroyed from the start where the "Boruto era" began with a Sarada focused arc where she gains character development and a goal before the Main Character.

How many times are you guys going to talk trash and be proven wrong! Literally! Each complaint you make gets destroyed yet you come back and do the same thing with something else.

Apparently you forgot about all of the above, or you're really stubborn and just want to take advantage of the situation because you know the story ia focusing on Boruto and Kawaki for now.

Sarada has ALOT of potential and gained the ambition of becoming Hokage right in the beginning - like Naruto. She's already casually solo'd the MC who was fighting seriously! When the story focuses on her again what are you going to say next? Give me some predictions. I know you're probably already scheming especially that vile UchihaKunoichi. Trolling Sarada with a name like that.

You know the anime isn't canon and neither are the novels. Not to mention none of those are my talking points and often used by members to troll others.

1. Didn't say karin was her mom

2. Didn't say she was weak

3. Didn't say she wasnt a real uchiha

4. Never said she learned katon from konohamaru

5. Sasuke does train him. Unless you can show a manga scan of this then i'm correct as the anime is filler and novel are filler.

6. Where did I state Boruto was stronger? She's not as important to the story as he and Kawaki are. Their level of power is irrelevant given her sparse appearances the past 4 chapters and Boruto being the focus.

7. What is her role in the story? Not her goal. Everyone has goals, I never stated her goal was Boruto. I stated that she is their love interest. If you're going to keep taking the anime as canon, then Mituski supports this as he references their relationship several times as being fitting partners in a romantic sense. The Manga has sumire and sarada talking about Boruto, her blushing at him and thinking he's cool. Keep in mind this series is targeted towards kids and blushing in anime is pretty commonly associated with that context.



Sarada's purpose in the story isn't impactful and she's slowly being ushered into the background now that Kawaki and Boruto are in such close proximity with each other. The two leads that are teased to be fighting each other in a destroyed konoha. Naruto has a role in the story, Sasuke has a role in the story, Kawaki, Boruto.

His team has no direction other than, "follow Boruto" or "Become hokage". But this isn't structured for Sarada. Her being Hokage doesn't effect the story in the least. She has no ties to Kara, no seal, no blood ties to the aliens in the same way Boruto does.

Her character has regressed to screaming Boruto and being held back several times by Mituski as Borat saves the day.

This isn't her story and thus, she's pushed into the background. This potential you're hyping up will bear no fruit unless the author knows what he's doing and actually balances out the development. Which doesn't seem likely given the fact that Kawaki is one of his original creations and the typical shounen stance on female characters.

I hope ikemoto proves me wrong and gives Sarada development. But I literally cannot fathom which direction they would provide that puts Sarada in the plot. As of now, everyone who isn't Kawaki, Naruto, Boruto, Sasuke, Kara, Katasuke, and the aliens are on the outside looking in on Boruto's story.

Hopefully Kara sees something in Sarada making her an asset or something. Because if all we're getting from Sarada is powerups then that's just lazy ass writing. Dedicating a arc to her or something would be best. But I cannot see how that would move the plot forward or make her apart of it.


You guys keep harping on, "but she's stronger than boruto, she solod both him and Mitsuki! and she's more interesting!".





That's nice and all but that has shit to do with the plot. It doesn't make her relevant. Many characters have beat or been stronger than Naruto in part 1. But their level of importance to the story as a whole never once eclipsed his. The angle that Boruto cares for her, the fact that his fate is that his eyes will take everything away that he cares about is a angle that can give Sarada a role.

Like his mother and sister, if he grows to care for her and loses her, that puts things in perspective to be contextualized. Boruto supporting her and their love for each other as she grows to be Hokage only to be killed or taken from him puts the looming thread above her head that can be cut at any moment. That gives her purpose in the story. As anyone not revolving around Boruto are going to get sent into oblivion. Just like the rest of the new gen who haven't been seen for a while now.

For characters like Sarada or the new gen characters ; Are we to assume that development and limited pages in a monthly manga will have time and resources to switch to their focus? When the Anime and novels obviously have their filler to compensate that while at the same time preventing it from catching up to the source material too quickly, they can leave the manga for the actual plot.

She can't keep up with puppet.
Madara without sharingan solos adult Senju.

12 years old Salad she still didn't master the tech.
7 years old dork Sasuke did it.

Sakura is proved to be her main mentor. Ask countless Shanaro. Sasuke didn't even recognize her.

Lol wanna say she has ability? Ask this gif and the already- out- of -chakra after 3 attacks Salad self.

She has as much as potential as girls who behave like this do

What an awesome character you have there. Uchiha don't wear glasses. Sorry. Not even 1000 bad reps would change this.



#UCHIHA KUNOICHI username stands for these kind of girls, not the Salad that discovers her clan was slaughtered and goes eat sandwich.

You can but then you don't latch on to a single series expecting it to deliver the story you wish for personally, when it's obvious it's not going to give you that. You can as well pick canned pepsi and demand it to taste like orange juice served in real glass.

You have made too many threads within a short span all to rant/bash on Sarada. No wonder you find the "site dead" seeing people are repeating themselves but not moving on to discuss some other series in other sections.

Whether you personally posted it or not, Karin being the mom argument was brought up as well as other comment mention by someone else above. It's a repetitive topic, and it's tiresome. Karin being mom ( as certain members suggest) would make no positive difference as it will still be story of Boruto. Only change will be that instead of one Boruto will have two team mates from Oro's lair, for Karin has nothing in Konoha and Sasuke still on mission and even more disconnected with his home and village. Sakura keeps him connected with konoha etc. And so on... But anyways...

It's a story aimed at young kids and only of Boruto, as the title suggests. One doesn't watch James bond or Batman movies for heroines. It's a similar case with this series. Want more relevant female characters? Look for something else. If those heroines that you mentioned in yet another thread, were that interesting why are you not discussing their stories, in their proper section?
