The whole part of the training exercise was for them to test the ninja tools, not for them to actually kill Sarada or vice versa.
I never said that their fight was to death, I said their fight was a serious one or a real one (serious is a synonym for real) and Boruto actually used the word real when he warned Sarada that it was hid intention as being. Which she agreed to as such...
Boruto saying that he was going to go at her for real, only means that he was taking this seriously.
My point exactly, this in itself doesn't discredits the doubt your trying to blend to the seriousness of Borutos pursuit or rather attempted take down of Sarada.
But we already know that Boruto was not using ninjutsu at all (and vice versa).
What Boruto used or didn't use doesn't do anything for you in this argument becuase he chose to attack Sarada in all seriousness using Taijutsu, there was no pretense that said he couldn't use ninjutsu or not. Mitsuki using The Soft Physique Modification which is ninjutsu means Boruto could've used ninjutsu + Taijutsu but didn't chose too.
Which means from that narrative, the fight was nothing more than a training exercise.
You have to stop this Indra, The Main Character decided what the narrative was with one simple panel and he created a narritavte based on seriousness when he pretensed his actions as being real or serious (taken in seriousness).
Even then, we have seen Boruto fight a willing combatant who was using a ninja tool (while using ninjutsu)
Nope, Sarada bested Boruto before she used the device, she used ninjutsu after ninjutsu was used on her by Mitsuki. Again, I don't see why your trying to discredit Sarada's moment of shine when there is no sensible way to do so. Come on fam, all Sarada did was take down an opponent who clearly underestimated her or the challange she could give them.
I'm not saying she's leagues ahead of Boruto or that she would beat him on a knock down drag out fight as simply as she did in two panels. I'm saying that she's a commendable character and that she shouldn't be slept on while being comparable to Boruto in a sense.
Whereas when Boruto and Mitsuki lost, it was nothing more than a 'Damn ninja tools' or "Damn you got us good Sarada" response.
Lmao no let's narrow the conversation to the point I'm malingnand have been making since I've entered this conversation with you..... Sarada bested, outplayed, out preformed, beat, got, owned or out manuvered Boruto before the device came into play. Sarada has the option to get Boruto with that device the second he attacked her head on. Sarada in fact couldve used the device when she initially dodged his first struck but she instead bested, outplayed, out preformed, beat, got, owned or out manuvered Boruto without it.
My point^
Damn Indra I honestly can't believe your doing this to yourself, please don't become one of those members who's willing to use dismissive logic to advocate for a particular character their fond of.
That's not you and it doesn't need to be becuase you are one of few members here who actually isn't bias.
You have less bias then I do+
