Honestly I'm just glad that Boruto is the anti-thesis of his father, which is what I see by symbolic. Though it's not something that points at you, you have to actually look at it and thensome. For example, Naruto is all about bright colors, has a bright personality despite his troubles, and continues along his path changing the people around him.

Boruto wears mainly dark colors (although his signature color is pinkish, but you get the idea), doesn't have a bright personality, and probably won't gather the people he meets to follow him like Jesus. Any manga/anime that delves away from the typical Shounen tropes is worth at least giving a chance, especially when things become overused.

I'm not even talking about his design at this point, just the whole happy-go lucky dumb protagonists, who all work hard and shit. Bolt on the other hand is brat, is smart, a bit of a jack-ass, and doesn't like to work hard at all.

I came to respect the design because at least it seemed Boruto matured, which is something I wanted to see from Part 2 Naruto when he showed up. Instead he went back to his antics not even one single chapter in (sexy jutsu crap). It's things like this that make you gravitate towards Hebi Sasuke in the beginning when we contrast him to the end of VOTE1 Sasuke.

Kishimoto had a hard time with just going straight for it, which is why I feel this author might throw in some good stuff here and there.
Naruto had so many serious times in shippuden you can't say he was stupid and dumb all the time...
Kishi foreshadowed him having Hyuga powers, the author went against that by giving him what looks like free hand outs. What's worse is he's using the CM as a grown up which suggests he relies on artificial power to be strong. As Naruto's son I expected him to rely on his own potential.

The new author ruined his image which is why I hate Boruto, no one is asking for his feats to be close to Naruto and Sasuke's level because they're gods with the Sage's power, it's literally impossible for non-transmigrants to be that strong.

There's so many other ways of making Boruto a Kage tier shinobi without making him look like a forced version of the original characters. Relying on CM makes him look unoriginal, underwhelming and unimpressive.
Naruto and sasuke no longer have the sage's powers...
Kishimoto never foreshadowed him having Hyuuga powers. He never unlocked the Byakugan at a young age like his sister, it mostly just wishful thinking from the fan-base. We all knew from design alone he was going to be more like Naruto/Minato in terms of Jutsu (Shadow Clones/Rasengan). Every character has had their hand outs, although you can't show me one panel where it was actually showed-cased to be a free hand out. Like let the story flesh out, whether it is or isn't doesnt bother me. But I don't know why you're complaining about such trivial things like it actually bothers you. I didn't see you ranting when Orochimaru said Sasuke could surpass Madara, and then he gets a free Rikudou boost /w with the Rinnegan.

Let's be real for a minute. As 'Naruto's son?', don't make me laugh :lol

Naruto relies on the Kyuubi's power, and his Master relied on the Curse Mark power for years, still relies on his brother's eyes, and Hagoromo's hand outs. And you expected the main character of the next generation series to not rely on external powers when they have to keep up with the old generation fast?

:lmao:

What kind of Manga do you think this is?


No you're just being dumb. There was no image that the author ruined in the first place, basically from what I see your nitpicking at the smallest things and causing unnecessary problems for yourself because of fan fic thinking. The real reason why you don't want this to happen is because you don't want them to be Naruto/Sasuke's level with hand outs when Naruto/Sasuke got this strong because of hand outs themselves.

Yes I understand that might make you butt-hurt, but like, who cares? It's damn pictures and words at the end of the day, whether it's logical or illogical, doesn't matter. No one believed Naruto or Sasuke were going to surpass Hashirama/Madara in the War Arc with one chapter, but they did.


I highly doubt Boruto and Kawaki are just Kage Level if they are going to be on some Naruto/Sasuke ish level. It's not even a Curse Mark, but stated to be a 'crest'. So again I don't see why you're complaining other than the design looking similar.

Don't try to argue with senseisama the contradiction creator
