Does anyone really think this person is going to be a great character?

Maybe he'll get his ass beaten on account of his apparent arrogance and get humbled a bit.

Why not, salad is like Karin and sakura mixed into one, boy obsessed and stalker from young age.

The combination of two great characters can only be a great character.

If this was the case then Naruto wouldn't need Kyuubi

I don't thinks so, but I could get pleasantly surprised.

I don't like the new Generation especially to Bolt who looks exactly like Naruto and has same personality& backround. Bolt is a carbon copy of Naruto, and what's worse is that he doesn't have byakugan simpily because Kishi "forgot it"

Did he really forget it? or was that some Kishi sarcasm?

Bolt. No. Sarada ? Maybe. Kishi loves Uchihas but hates females, so she has a 50/50 shot at being a good character.

I'm sorta 50/50 on Bolt. He actually has development needed to be filled, with his problem against his father.

Salad just seems interesting because she is a female Uchiha, but he sorta ruined any aspect of her being cool imo. If anything being the daughter of Sasuke is just enough to let that stupid pairing crap slide.

I think he has milked the Uchiha far enough, and I think he understands that as the plot for the new movie involves more Bolt than any other character in the new series. I'm hoping for some Uzumaki background

I think Bolt not getting the Byakugan makes him less predictable power wise. Its gonna be interesting to see how Kishi developes his powers from here.

I hope you're right, but I'm not optimistic about the miniseries in general. 30 chapters doesn't allow much time to develop a conflict or for character development. But like most people here, I'll read it anyway.

He did forgot it according to the interview, Kishi truly rushed the ending and put himself into the corner

Kish: If Naruto has a son what name hell have…hmm…I used to think menma would be fine. people often jokingly asked me "wont you start Menma when you finish Naruto?" "you should write about narutos son, Naruto the 2nd" or "why not write menma?" but now I used the name for the movie, that...ummmm…(the name of narutos son will be) Shinachiku* I guess.
*(shinachiku is another name for menma, seasoned bamboo shoots)

4th’s secret and bloodline will be shown.

Jinchuuriki of the 8 tailed will be revealed. This Jinchuuriki kills one of the Akatsuki’s members and invades Konoha by him/herself. During this fight one dies, and one will lose his/her eyesight (this statement is controversial for me. We all know that Bee is this jinchuuriki, but what makes him invade Konoha? Hasn't Konoha had enough of these invasions?

Supposedly from an old Kishimoto interview...these tell me that either Kishimoto likes to screw with people or these interviews translated by fans aren't all that credible.

If he seriously 'forgot it' dude could've easily corrected the mistake later...just sounds like he's bull$hitting and knew what he wanted.


OT As for bolt...I reserve Judgement

Bolt is a straight up G, just based on the fact he's a #GoldenBoy and continues on the legacy that Minato and Naruto have built.

Salad, couldn't care less about. She's like Karin and Sakura combined which is like combining AIDS and Malaria. Big pass on that kid, I'd rather read about Sharkeisha Akimichi or whatever her name is.

Interviewer asks, "Why don't the two children have the byakugan?"
Kishimoto says, " Ah, I intended to, but I guess I forgot about it (laughs). If there's a third child, however, but then it seemingly will get complicated in various ways (laughs sarcastically).




Kishi won't able to fix mistake, he already drawn Bolt and Himawari pupil and iris so it's too late, and you can't simply awaken the Byakugan like the sharingan can and if that is the case, that would be a retcon. Anyone with the hyuga bloodline are simply born with the Byakugan. Kishi even said he "might" draw third child, but he said himself that it's too complicated so it's even less likely it'll happen especiially the fact that he has under half a year left until he stop making anymore Naruto series

I know all about that...I said the guy might've been screwing with the readers again...Isn't there a weekly chapter released and then another version when it's put in volumes? If so, he could've fixed it then. or maybe he wants to do something different with their eyes and doesn't won't to spoil it.

and what you said is not a 'retcon' because there is no prior case of a mixed-breed Hyuuga.

Nothing has changed in this final volume, everything remained the same in these final chapters. They only included some chibi stuff and some other bonus that I can't remember recalling.

An extra panel of Hinata waking up and Naruto and Sasuke looking at each other before undoing IT was all that's added
