I am really hating the series at this point. I am only watching it now to see if the shitload of stuff wrong with it now corrects itself in the future.

At first, I hated it because of how the generation just received the same personality and jutsu from the previous generation. For example, there is no reason Lee would be able to give birth to someone incapable of using ninjutsu. If Lee's handicap is on a genetic level, then he would undoubtedly be from a clan. I mean, it would make so much more sense if Lee and Metal Lee couldn't use ninjutsu and genjutsu because of a genetic variance prevelant in their clan. But it seems to be randomly associated to Lee and his offspring.

Now, I'm really starting to hate it because of Boruto's dojutsu. Many other people hate Boruto because of the way he treats his father. The authors wanted him to hate his father and the hokage title so they can show that Naruto and Boruto are different. But if they wanted to do that, they shouldn't have given him Naruto's two most-used jutsu ever, Shadow Clone and the Rasengan. That isn't my reason for hating him at the moment. My reason is that Boruto gets what seems to be an entirely new dojutsu that has never been hinted to exist, a dojutsu that's even beyond the Otsutsuki.

I mean, the premise of this show is inheriting everything from the progenitor of chakra. So if the authors want to use the excuse that Boruto's new dojutsu comes from the amalgamation of Hamura, Hagoromo, Hyuga, Uzumaki, and Namikaze chakra, they would be completely wrong. If that was the case, then Kaguya should have had the same dojutsu as Boruto since everyone's chakra came from her alone. The only thing that would make Boruto's dojutsu make sense is if it is in the preliminary stage of becoming the Byakugan, or a mutation between the Byakugan and the Tenseigan.

I just hope someone saves this series.

Bro the eye hasnt even been explained yet.

I still think Rinnegan is the god eye of all eyes, bolts eye just serves some unique purpose with some pretty good abilities as well.

& what Kaguya lacks is human DNA which might be what helped influence this mutation. Or it might be a rare eye amongst ootsusuki since toneri knew of it. Or once again because of human dna since ootsusuki moon clan was part human since they derive from Hamura who was the originator of the tenseigan which looks an awful lot like bolts eye.

Either way don't hate on something you've yet to understand my young padawan.

now if the doujutsu explanation turns out to be half ass then by all means hate on it

Metal Lee has shown to be so proficient with using shurikens so he is definitely not just a copy past of Lee, I think he is a combination of Lee and Tenten.

the only one who is completely a copy past of his father is Shikadai.

None of what you said are literal problems, you're just complaining for miniscule details that barely effect the plot.

If the dojutsu is an entirely new dojutsu, then that would be the biggest plot hole in the entire series. And character originality definitely is an issue. No one wants to see different characters playing the same role of their predecessor. It's like Darth Vader having a son, a grandson, a great-grandson, and so on, and each of them being evil (or doing whatever Darth Vader wanted to do, I never watched Star Wars. I hope you have so you can get the analogy). But it's redundant, pointless.

Well you're not wrong. Boruto series is trash. Too much MC focus is bad.

Yeah, it's trash so far.

Only good thing about today's episode is Kakashi. The rest is boring.
