Does anyone else feel like he's gaining ridiculous abilities in a dumb amount of time? Do you think that Kishimoto has gotten lazy after years of having to develop characters slowly?

I feel like the rushing of Boruto will make the show flop. If they could return back to the roots of Naruto, and return to Taijutsu and weapons, and minor use of ninjutsu that would be nice rather than transforming into DBZ.

Yeah. He got 2 godly powerups in less than 10 chapters.

Even with all that focus on him, he's still a trash character.

The show is slow asf. What powers does he even have? He's been using shadow clones since episode 1, and he can't even activate his Dojutsu.

Yeah. He got 2 godly powerups in less than 10 chapters.
> How is the seal and Dojutsu a godly power? Boruto showecased his Dojutsu in episode 1 of the series, and he got the seal at the end of the Chunin Exam Arc.

I think you're low key trolling.

Even with all that focus on him, he's still a trash character.
You're just mad that Boruto's character is better than Sarada.

Lightning coming out of his freaking eye, summoning creatures without practice. If he was going to be a prodigy at least let him be a Sasuke prodigy, the type that's good at stuff but has to put in some effort to master it completely.

He still had to master the basics but I get your point. I just feel like Boruto is getting too much passed his way far too quickly just because he's Naruto's son.

So far it's just powers he has he hasn't shown that he can use it yet

And? Sasuke literally activated his Mangekyo Sharingan once, and used Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi without practice. Same goes for his Rinnegan when he came to his S/T.

Sparks literally left his eye and did nothing.

summoning creatures without practice.
Wtf? Are you even following the story? It was revealed that Sumire is the mastermind behind the Nue's creature. It wasn't Boruto who summoned the beast, but he was the catalyst since he was using the jutsu.

If he was going to be a prodigy at least let him be a Sasuke prodigy, the type that's good at stuff but has to put in some effort to master it completely.
I don't really understand what you're saying. First of all, no offense, none of what you said make sense because:

> Dojutsu powers all work the same. They sometimes, just happen.
> Boruto's talent is that he learns stuff easily.

But he hasn't been training. In the Movie he does learn how to use his elemental natures (or sometime around that?) and he learns the Rasengan. However, Boruto's been only using the shadow clone jutsu since episode 1.

I don't know why people have to lie when he hasn't done shit. If you wanna talk about being OP, why don't you criticize Mitsuki?

> Has Sage Mode
> Has two elements already
> Already #1 in his class, beat Iwabee with no pressure
> Held his own against Shino

Oh wait, double standards. Yeah.

These aren't double-standards.

At Boruto's age, Sasuke's Sharingan was not complete and was rarely used. He had a good array of ninjutsu and taijutsu feats that we know he trained for.

Boruto on the other hand is gaining too much power too quickly. I fear that when a time-skip happens, he won't have a human enemy to beat because anyone with the power to defeat him will be on his side. He might have to face Otsutsuki's or other creatures unlike the generation before him. He can use three chakra natures that he's apparently proficient in. There's nothing wrong with one or two, but three that he's good at as well? Coupled with a seal and special dojutsu? Come on dude.

I'm not saying it's okay for Sasuke and Naruto, I myself am not a fan of Susano'o and RMS and KCM but Jesus, they're already making an overdone prodigy too early in the show.

I don't want them to do what was done with Shippuden before Boruto's timeskip occurs. This kid is even going to have a freaking chakra mode. What the hell. This is taking a turn for the worst in my opinion. If all of the powers we considered strong are handed out before a time-skip or adolescence, I'm going to abandon this show.

Obito did the surgery for his EMS after Saving ass from Naruto

Yes, they are. I'll clearly explain why you're doing so:

At Boruto's age, Sasuke's Sharingan was not complete and was rarely used. He had a good array of ninjutsu and taijutsu feats that we know he trained for.
Sasuke unconsciously activated his Sharingan after he witnessed his parents death, and then forcibly activated it into second tomoe against Haku for a moment.

Meanwhile, Boruto seemingly can't even activate his Dojutsu by himself. And his Dojutsu hasn't done anything. Even including what happened in the latest episode, the sparks that left his eye... literally did nothing. Even if it did something, that's his eye. It's not a Sharingan. It wouldn't operate the same way, considering we are dealing with a new type of eye.

Regardless, Boruto's eye hasn't done anything from start to finish, outside of, being a telescope for the Ghost Incidents.

Boruto on the other hand is gaining too much power too quickly.
:lmao:

What power?

I fear that when a time-skip happens, he won't have a human enemy to beat because anyone with the power to defeat him will be on his side. He might have to face Otsutsuki's or other creatures unlike the generation before him. He can use three chakra natures that he's apparently proficient in. There's nothing wrong with one or two, but three that he's good at as well? Coupled with a seal and special dojutsu? Come on dude.
This is why I can't take what you say seriously because:

> You tried arguing that Boruto was gaining too much power for "sparks" leaving his eye, which haven't done jack shit.
> You tried arguing that Boruto was summoning the Nue's tail, when it was revealed that Sumire had a direct involvement with the Nue, who was present at the time Boruto's summoning was jacked.

So I'm confused at how "powerful" he's getting by your statement. The only thing Boruto's been doing, is having an unconscious Dojutsu being activated, which he can't control, and that can't even be used in a debate. The same logic applies to Boruto when he gains the seal, because he can't even seemingly activate the seal, nor has it given him any boosts what's so ever.

Unlike Sasuke at the same who already had his second tomoe Sharingan, coupled with his Curse Seal activation. Then afterwards (post-pill) was using the third stage transformation of the Seal, after obtaining his third tomoe Sharingan upgrade, which gave him the ability to automatically predict Naruto's movements.

I'm not saying it's okay for Sasuke and Naruto, I myself am not a fan of Susano'o and RMS and KCM but Jesus, they're already making an overdone prodigy too early in the show.
The problem with Naruto/Sasuke's powers is they had automatic control and learned how to use their abilities with no training.

Boruto on the other hand can't even turn on his powers yet. So we haven't faced this problem, and seemingly when he does, we know he gains control over them in the time skip. Which is the vast future. So what's the issue here?

I don't want them to do what was done with Shippuden before Boruto's timeskip occurs. This kid is even going to have a freaking chakra mode. What the hell. This is taking a turn for the worst in my opinion. If all of the powers we considered strong are handed out before a time-skip or adolescence, I'm going to abandon this show.
That drawing isn't even canon. I feel like you don't understand much about the series tbh.

What I gained from this conversation is that you're worried about Boruto becoming "too strong" when he isn't even strong now. He:

> Beat Iwabee when he was restricted of his staff
> When Mitsuki was shown superior to him
> Had to cheat in the Chunin Exams in the upcoming arc
> Was called out on his shit for not training, which he fixed in this current Manga arc
> Boruto in the Manga arc has the Seal, but can't activate his Eye.

It's balanced. Boruto's Dojutsu is not something he can tap into ATM, even if he could, he hasn't portrayed any powers that would make him OP. Sparks leaving his eye isn't shit :lol

Like try saying that out loud to be logical. So far he's still the same Boruto, he's not THAT strong yet. But I can't wait to see what that seal does, though.

I don't think it's being rushed at all. Boruto currently has no control of either the seal or the eye. Right now, he is just at the basic shadow clones and rasengan. Even his hyped up 3 chakara natures have yet to be seen.

Edit: Also, with chapters coming out every 2 months, we probably need a little rushing or else we might all have grand kids by the time this story ends.

are u kidding this show is slow as ****. It's been almost 15 eps and we haven't even gotten a touch if mitsukis backstory or gaiden. All we got were a glimpse of orochimaru taking mitsuki outta the chamber

Yes. I find it ridiculous too. They are just giving these characters ridiculous powers so early.

The only good part about this is that we might get amazing fights earlier. Like Naruto part2 level battles very early. Would be nice.
