I think more so for his friends than just Boruto. Like Iwabe, Sumire, and Denki (and a few others). You can physically see that they are different from the Academy Arc.

However in Boruto's case, while I do think he learned a lesson (and that it was nice to see him take Kakashi's words to heart). I think that they moved a bit too fast since he obviously didn't really learn much. In the sense that Kakashi warned him his resolve isn't strong enough to make him a real ninja.

In this case I feel like they failed Boruto, because he's walking out of graduation still having a weak resolve, and still believing strongly in friendship.

Granted though it'll setup the Movie events where he really gets fleshed out, but they definitely need a few more focus episodes to get us there.

I'm in a strong belief that Boruto will probably end up getting saved by his friends in the end too.

> He does something bad
> In the end "you were myyyyyyy friend" GROUP TNJ

Yeah I agree 100%. Group tnj was pretty effective in this instance, everyone got their motivation to keep on fighting even if only one of them can get the bell. Besides that you know how Kakashi rolls, as long as you fight for your friends you can become a ninja.

In terms of resolve, both thier minds are garbage. Them as characters are okay-level at best; but them as resolve full ninjas is an overstatement and thier pathetic resolve is garbage trash compared to Sasuke and itachi's resolve to save and destroy the world.

Boruto can't be blamed. This new generation hardly has any problems, and because of that there's really no reason for them to have any motivation at all. Kawaki has a more part one-esque motivation than anyone else in this Boruto series. However, I will admit that Kakashi was good at making us realize how dangerous being a shinobi is, but this new generation make's the dangers seem less dangerous imo. The new animation quality, the story-line, the new abilities, all of it makes Naruto less of a show about ninja's with their life on the line and more like a generic DBZ spinoff.

Kakashi's resolve was just as weak as Boruto's throughout the series. He had no purpose/drive during part one and part two, despite everything he lost as a result of the shinobi world he continued to just be a mindless pawn in the game. So for him to talk down to Boruto is kind of hypocritical.
