I see why the manga gets so much hate.

Sarada is broken in it. She swept Boruto with no difficulty at all and fooled Mitsuki, all without her sharingan even being active. Of course she has more feats, but these two stand out for a nice reason. Boruto is pretty decent, and Mitsuki especially is a monster, but the major thing is that she did that IN HEELS. Sarada outpacing other ninjas in heels is a testament of her skill & chakra control. While Naruto & Sasuke struggled to climb a tree, this girl walks on water as if Jesus in HEELS.

I disagree. Sarada is one of the good things about the manga. Her outfit needs to change but aside from that it's refreshing to have a female character that actually contributes in battle and is consistent with her combat abilities.

It's also a good thing she is on par with her teammates. She doesn't need to get left behind.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Disagree with last bit, though. She's clearly ahead of the others, but of course not SM Mitsuki.

So, your problem is basically that a female can't kick ass with heels? Wow.
Problem? No. I'm saying the fact that she tops enemies in heels is proof her ability.

She's not actually ahead of the others. They're all pretty much on par. The new gen is very talented.

I pretty much agree with this, the only thing she needs is an outfit change.

OT: I for 1 appreciate a strong female character it rubs :salt: in the wounds of the haters.

I like her outfit to be honest but a change once in a while might be good. She is seriously OP, to outpace people like Mitsuki and Boruto wearing heels which are hard to walk in, let alone run and focus chakra in. It seems she inherited Sasuke's and Sakura's chakra prowess, no doubt.

Sarada is Sakura in base. And have her keen mind, Sasuke himeself in part one admitted that Sakura analytical ability and genjutsu resistance was superior to his own, despite having a 2 tomoe.
So base Sarada is probably around or above 2 tomoe, don't let the glasses fool you. Which is why her 1 tomoe is OP.

And a blind Sarada is a perfect marksman, didn't a blind Madara solo the tailed beast, it's in her DNA to solo

Lollll it is odd Sarada is able to fight with heels on
It's a manga where eyes change pattern and stat fire, people turn in to sharks, people blow up mountains throwing tennis balls they created with chakra, animals talk, frogs participate in battles, re-attach cut of heads and limbs and it's the 'heel' that breaks the deal?

So you want her to be a useless damsel like her mom was in Part 1? Tbh, it's about time we have a strong female character that can do well in a fight. As long as she remains consistent, it's okay. The only problem I have with Sarada Is her outfit, which is beyond disgusting because she's supposedly a 12 year old girl.

In some cases, the abnormalities are excused and the normalities are the problem. Like Kakashi saying using 5 elements at the same time is the impossible thing, but he's saying this after knowing the fact that Hidan got his head chopped off and talked like normal.

I've been hearing complaints from here and there and I just don't get it. In One piece, there is a rabbit girl from the mink kingdom, her outfit looks more problematic to me but no one talks about how outrageous that is even though she is a kid like Sarada.

I remember one youtuber complaining about frogs as summons and was ranting at length. ... It's still the mental barrier here, nothing more. It's a fantasy verse. Zabuza and Dosu tape up their mouths, jaws, and necks, yet still can speak clearly. Ino wore strips of clothing as pants- I don't even want to imagine how a girl would do that and why but it was. Sasuke's wild days also had that "impossible but cool cloth" trope. Not much is going to be gained fretting over it or splitting hair.

How old is Carrot?

:wut:
She or other females in OP are regularly posed and dressed in sexualised way. Sexual objectification doesn't become suddenly acceptable if the character drawn is slightly older. If it's either an issue or it's not. They sell those toys models to everyone. Not to mention the target audience of Boruo series has access to a lot of such series.

A lot of mangka draw females as if they are younger and kid like despite their supposed age range being higher. Naruto did reverse- kept the age range low but it's character do the deeds that should be 14+ in the least.

Would you like a clip of 12 year old Hinata water fall dancing naked at night time in an anime episode? None of the people complained back then. The Boruto series targets same age audience.

I don't like sexual objectification but I don't like selective outrage either. A big issue here has been people using the character outfit designs to hate and using inappropriately harsh and vile language. It's hypocritical and the real motivation of sudden conservative moralization over it by many is known to all in the fandom.

To be honest, people make too much of a big deal out of the outfit. Sarada hasn't even shown, revealed, or done anything provocative. The manga hasn't actually dedicated any screen time or relevance to any ecchi events. It has just carried on as normal.
