He is getting a love story cause Sarada is not good enough to be Boruto's rival.




I hope he gets away from the shadow when she visits the bathroom.

But Boruto loves Himawari

In my opinion it's both. Boruto and Sarada can still be rivals while also having a loving relationship. They've been shown to do rival-like things before.

But it'll be different from the past rivals we've seen. I'm pretty sure the whole point of making Sarada a girl was so the Uchihas and Uzumaki's could finally get along and not have so much hatred between them. Not to mention if Bourto and Sarada ever married it'd literally be a way of uniting the two clans.

Boruto and Sarada have a unique relationship in that they have a mutual respect for one another. They don't tear each other down and instead want each other to do well. By the end of the movie Boruto is really supportive of Sarada's dream and likewise Sarada wants the best for Boruto. They also seem to challenge each other shown by their bickering of whether the bear at the beginning of the movie was a bear or a panda. The bickering shows how they aren't ready to let the other one win so easily. Also when Boruto won at the Chunin Exams Sarada said, "I'll win too!" So they'll continue trying to keep pace with other.

But honestly I don't think Boruto and Sarada really need a rival. Not like the rivalry Naruto and Sasuke had. It's different with them. Instead of rivals they have role models they admire and want to be like.

Sarada will get stronger to become the Hokage like Naruto. And Boruto will become stronger to become like Sasuke.

You see, Sarada and Boruto's relationship is by far one of the best things of the next generation. I never saw them as "rivals" -- Maybe not the same way we see rivals who fight among each other. Boruto and Sarada are more like close friends who bicker with each other back and forth, but still remain to have bond that remains unique from the past gen.

Sarada: Wants to help Boruto, in fact she roots for him quite a lot. Though unlike past female characters, she doesn't allow herself to be caught up in his problems and still remains to follow true with herself (in example of not allowing Boruto to ruin her dream by becoming Hokage because he didn't want to join the Chunin Exams, but still caring enough to support him and his father's situation by telling him Naruto will watch him, along with Katasuke stating the same thing but wanting something else). In Chapter 700, Sarada wanted to follow Boruto due to the prank he was going to do, but in the Movie we see Sarada following Boruto while he trained so she could root for him in her own way. You could see a frowned look on Sarada's face when Boruto gave up at times, but when he came up and started trying harder her face lit up. When Boruto thought he failed to impress Sasuke with his Rasengan, Sarada came from the bushes and started to tell Sasuke that she didn't know Boruto well enough, that it was a miracle he kept training for as long as he did.

Overall her friendship with Boruto is rather refreshing. You have a female character willingly to go out of her way for another person, but still not lose her meaning as a person in the Manga.

Boruto: His feelings for Sarada are more hidden, but still rather obvious at the same time.

While Boruto does not outright want to help her straight away, he begins to root for her. We see early on in the Gaiden that Boruto has a positive relationship with Sarada, and his other friends. In the beginning when Sarada told Boruto she wanted to become Hokage, he scoffed at her dream and saying that Hokage's were weak under his breath. In the Movie, we later see Boruto and Sarada arguing over the same topic. Sarada wants to become a Chunin to further advance herself to the Hokage spot, and Boruto connects 'upgrading as shinobi' to him 'becoming hokage' (Which shows the mentality of how the world looks at him, and it's seen through Mitsuki. They all expect him to become Hokage, which is why for the most part he has no interest in becoming a Chunin.) Eventually, Sarada figures out how to open him up, and he later accepts and joins the Exams.

In the second part of the Exams, Boruto is up against three Genin brothers who can also make the shadow clones (up to 3 each). When Boruto gets overpowered and outmatched, he closes his eyes in anger. He then hears Sarada's voice, and it says she wants to become Hokage, and then it shows a picture of Chunin Exams. So immediately Boruto begins to contemplate on not only his internal struggles with his father, which is why he had the device in the first place (and why he was in this situation) is because he wanted Naruto to look is his direction. But at the same time he thinks about Sarada in this situation and her dream of being Hokage which he only scoffed at, and he starts to use the device. So in that sense, he not only is fighting for himself, but he is fighting for her (whether he admits it or not).

His connection with her is never outright stated by him, he doesn't go out of his way for her like she does for him, but he does enough behind the scenes and in important parts of the story which make you feel for their relationship. When Sarada fell into her knees because of Momoshiki's power, Boruto immediately made a shadow clone to surround her on both sides so that she would feel safe. It's things like this that show you how well these two work together, compared to the past generation's relationship (let's say Naruto and Sakura).

Towards the end of the Movie, Boruto told Sarada that not only does he support her dream of becoming Hokage, he also wants to protect her and retain a relationship that Sasuke and Naruto share.


Minato and Kushina started off as rivals for the Hokage spot, and look what happened.

Shikamaru and Temari too doesn't need an explanation.

But at least there's hope that these two characters won't bring each other down like other ships in the Manga who do more harm than good.

I love your post...from reading your post it seems definately we are expecting a love story

Also it reminded me of Hinata and Naruto as there story is sort of similar to Sarada and Boruto if you think about it except Sarada is bolder, closer nd not shy

Boruto is a guy, seeing a woman getting close to becoming the Hokage when he is the son of the Hokage will affect him one way or the other

Boruto looks down on Hokages, then he should create his own title higher than an Hokage, maybe "Hosages" or "Shinobi King".. Just saying

Anyways Nice Post

We all know Naruto had a rival and his name is Uchiha Sasuke, both of them are guys, and Naruto chasing after Sasuke to come back to the Village was sort of manly and interestinng because they were both guys

But now look, we now have Boruto the son of Naruto annd so far I have not seen a possible rival for him, and if we are to look at it that it will be Sarada, then believe it or not Naruto Gaiden will turn to a love story of Boruto chasing after Sarada or Sarada trying to surpass Boruto

For in any Asian story were a boy has a girl for a rival it turns to a love story and they eventually fall in love. Naruto Gaiden will turn to more of battle of emotions than power.

For those who have watched animes where rivals are opposite *** knows what am talking about

Plus Boruto has got to have a rival or else it won't really give him high significance as Naruto when we compared him to Sasuke as he grew in power

Oh it's totally a love story. Those two are so in love and don't even realize it. Did you see how Boruto jumped tp prptect Sarada when Momoshiki and Kinshiki attacked the stadium?

Oh yea....definitely a love connection. :hooray::yayy::kissing::happy::T_T:

The Daughter of Sasuke wants to be like Naruto

The Son of Naruto wants to be like Sasuke

To me its just sad, maybe its due to the failure of both fathers being around much for their kids but its also interesting

It's pretty interesting. Honestly it'd be pretty lame if Boruto also wanted to be Hokage. By switching the dreams of the kids, it keeps them from becoming clones of their parents. Instead they have unique goals they want to follow. I'm pretty sure Kishi did it on purpose to unite the families of Naruto and Sasuke.

Sarada can't marry Boruto. The Uchiha name will go away.

I'm really glad Kishi went this route. The story would've been boring and repetitive if the kids followed their parents' paths. And it also shows how Naruto and Sasuke's bond not only extends to their children being friends, but they've managed to influence each others' children and helped them define their paths. Pretty deep if you think about it. They're far beyond friends and rivals now. They're a family who can entrust their most precious possessions (their kids) to the care of one another. Not too many ppl have that kind of bond.

That's why Sakura and Sasuke need to have another kid. :Sparks: Hopefully Kishi will one day realize the huge problem that would happen if Sarada remains an only child and marries Boruto. He loves the Uchiha clan too much to make it disappear.

The Uchiha clan will stay dead regardless.

No way. It'll live a prosperous life with Sarada. ^-^ Especially since she will be living out Itachi's dream.

If so, then don't forget Sarada has (Eye power) and Boruto has (body power), if they marry just think of the child they would produce

Well to me its like they are ensuring the continous peace between their two clans started by their fathers

Still Naruto Gaiden has some interesting feats

Yeah I agree. Their child would have the potential for Sharingan, CES, Strength of a hundred seal, Byakugan, possible Kurama chakra passed down, Kage Bunshin, Rasengan, Chidori etc. 0.0 it's crazy just to think about it.

Yeah I think the hatred between the two clans ended with Naruto and Sasuke. Now they should be able to get along.

Itachi never dreamed to be a Hokage. Until Sasuke starts caring for his clan his clan as a whole will stay dead.
