It all depends on whether Sarada is fodder in it or not. We'll have to wait more chapters and see.

If Sarada is fodder not canon
If she isn't, canon

It's been pissing me off but so far she's fodder

The Boruto Anime is not canon yet, however, there are "canon arcs".

So far Kishimoto has approved the academy arc, which is currently undergoing.

However the whole thing isn't canon, at least not yet.

If you let the presence of the author decide that for you, sure.

For me-it's all canon. Even to the point of minor contradiction.

If you people really believe that Kishimoto is "approving" every single episode, while they already had messed up with the timeline (they look the same and have the same height as 12-year-olds and they are supposed to be 7) then good for you I guess. But let's be real, if this anime had nothing to do with Naruto no one would touch it, it's very boring so far. You can see that actually most of it is SP's work, like the 4th episode...

The only thing Kishimoto is really approving from this series is money, period.

Think of it as Dragonball GT.

It has the stamp of approval at first but eventually Kishi may come back make a part 3 and consider Boruto non-canon

The height has been inconsistent since Himawari has been introduced.

She looks the same age as Boruto, yet, they have her as 6 in the Boruto Movie.
