A retcon is a piece of information that imposes a different interpretation on previously described events. Boruto having a KKG, or a Dojutsu, was never not stated anywhere other than Kishimoto stating he forgot to give Boruto a Byakugan in Chapter 700. Plus, this story takes us back to the start of Boruto's academy days. There was never any story on this before.

The Manga even clarifies that Boruto had a Dojutsu, and even Momoshiki hints at it.

Plus, Boruto comes from a long line of Dojutsu users. You complaining that he activated one is pure hypocrisy at its finest. Honestly, just grow up.

Yes because there were so many hints that Boruto had eye powers in the movie which took place years later. Also temporarily unlocking the byakugan like but not exactly eye techniques randomly for no reason in one eye makes a lot of sense. Just admit it is a retcon they never though of initially and are just trying to come up with now to make the special snowflake Bort even more special to justify why he will be so strong and worthy of being the title character.

They literally hinted that there was something special about Boruto's eyes during the Movie. We just never realized that was important, but the Manga clarified the meaning. Your eyes are lighter than the Seventh's -- I remember when that dropped, people were assuming that he was going to activate the Byakugan in the future. Even Kishimoto clarified that he was going to give Naruto's children Dojutsu, but he 'forgot'. And he gave Himawari her's, but Boruto's was left in the dark. Cough.

You're assuming that it's a retcon, despite the Manga establishing it. Which had to revamp the Movie and put it on paper to continue the story, since the Boruto Movie itself was an 'ending' sort to speak. They finished plot lines, added new one's, and invented surprises.

Regardless, the first episode proved why Boruto will be an interesting main character for the series. They incorporated his Hyuuga side, which most people felt would be irrelevant. They have interesting dynamics to build from, and honestly, he was pretty awesome too all things aside. He wasn't even brat.

The problem with what you're saying is that it doesn't make sense in the slightest. You're assuming that it's a retcon, despite the Manga establishing it.

You can believe what you want to believe but the fact is he does not use any eye techniques when he is 12 in the movie even though every other Hyuga already unlocked their's years before as far as we know. It clearly was not part of his design but whatever when the decided to continue to milk the series they can continue to add on to make him more special. I am sure he will secretly have Otosuki blood and be able to unlock Sage mode with hidden tailed beast chakra in a addition to the seal while having an eye that can freeze time. He will get all the powers and be the greatest most awesomest main character ever. Way better than that Naruto loser ever was I am sure.

That's why you need to actual listen to what the character's say, and what the animators/writers do to a story before you go off assuming something. Boruto's Dojutsu triggered when that special chakra that attacked Denki, fluctuated. He didn't even realize that he had an eye power. In that contrast, Boruto who is much older, is seen activating his Dojutsu. You can put 2 and 2 together: There would be no logical sense for him to use something he doesn't know he has, and it only activated when that 'chakra' appeared, which wasn't seen in the Movie.

I honestly don't think so. This eye dojutsu is probably some kind of Byakugan/Tenseign variant, he might get a Tenseign chakra mode if he unlocks it in the second eye (Kishimoto drew a drawing with Team Konohamaru: Sarada had MS, Mitsuki had SM, Boruto had 2 Byakugan's /w his natural color mode). But I don't really see it going an farther than that.

Kishimoto said earlier that the power scale is not going to be on the same level as Naruto and Sasuke's (most likely at their Rikudou limit). They probably will have hacks: Like maybe a S/T, which is probably how Kawaki took down Naruto.

But rest assured that they aren't going into retarded planet busting territory, as long as Kishimoto keeps his word.e

I am done here you think this is good story telling because it hypes your fave while I don't like him since all this will lead to is him quickly making the rest of his generation irrelevant just like Naruto and Sasuke's free power ups did and that is how you get the fate of the entire village and maybe ninja world be left solely up to Bort.

Again, you need to calmly assess what's actually going on in the story. When I tell you something, you run off. Face it forward. They haven't done anything that completely destroys the story. The entirety of Naruto has been following the same motion.

Complaining about something that barely just started is fools work. We need to watch/read the story until it reaches the climax, to get a good representation of how 'good' the writing is. But I won't hate on something so irrelevant when it is barely fleshed out. C'mon dude :lol

Regardless, so far in the Manga, all the characters have had pretty good screen time. Even Mirai whom Kishimoto ignored in all of his work bar Chapter 700. I'm sure the writers are going to do a good job at least in terms of splitting the spotlight.

Anyway, funny enough, when Kawaki told Boruto that the era of shinobi is over. Boruto pretty much said 'Even so' -- Which implies that he agrees. Who knows what might happen.

@Indra can you please share the picture you're talking about?



Kishi drew this for his favorite book store as a art for the first volume book.
