In 124 episodes Naruto had pretty much completed the first half of its story already. A hokage died, the village was almost destroyed, the rival turned bad, and we were on our way to a timeskip.
Boruto is now at this episode mark. What has it accomplished story wise in comparison? Is it worth picking up?

Unless you are a fan of the naruto universe, i wouldn't recommend watching it, just read
Cute feet
This.
The Boruto anime also started about when the manga did, so it was filler right from the start. The abysmally slow pace of the manga precludes the anime from adapting it, and thus furthering the plot.
The anime should just follow its own storyline separate from the manga.
Filler isn't bad, it's what made Naruto special because it gave side characters needed screentime.
Boruto is almost 100% filler, with almost no serious arcs to progress the plot.
Boruto has the potential, the characters have been growing on me for a while. The OST has been pretty good, and there have baen a handful of really good episodes, so the staff has the potential to make it really good.
Boruto's Chuunin Exams were just nerfed down version for zoomers, zero of the actual violence and scary feeling of the past.
And then afterwards it just stayed in place. No really, I think nothing worth a damn happened since then (in the anime version)
Shikadai became a chunin and Onoki died. Those two are the only things that I think could be major things. Admittedly, I bring up Onoki's death mostly for how it was a former kage and someone from the original series who died rather than any importance Onoki had to the overall narrative of the series.
>I think nothing worth a damn happened
Ohnoki died.
Any proof he's still alive in the manga? He could have just died off screen instead of that whole filler-tier arc.
Oh, yeah you're right, my bad.
They just held a funeral anyway cause they weren't sure.

Better safe than sorry, just in case.
>He could have just died off screen
Next you'll say he was just taking a nap

>Ohnoki Dies in the anime
>No mention of his Death in the manga

>I've been defending the anime saying it's canon
i'm a ding dong diddly retard
Agreed. Naruto’s exam they didn’t give a shit if you died or not. Boruto’s exams they didn’t even do anything dangerous.
It makes sense, considering post-Great Ninja War 4 was all about the deescalation of war and tension between nations. Making exams where it's allowed for the kids of what are now allied nations to still kill each other wouldn't exactly help in keeping friendly relations. Now it's meant to just be a fun event for viewers, like some international sports competition.
Cute feet :3
It's a shitty problem partially due Boruto being more kid-friendly, and also due to the fact that it takes place during peace-time.
There's pretty much no real threat of war, so there's no need to train child soldiers. The anime addresses it itself, barely user wants to be a shinobi any more.
Back during Naruto it was expected that you become a shinobi because your village needs you to fight for them. It was a duty. In Boruto, who wants to risk their life and limb for a village at peace?
There's just no grand reason to be a shinobi unless you have personal reasons.
If Boruto's Chunin exams had a legitimate threat of death, almost no one would participate.
I think Kodachi failed with Kara being a good threat. They're all way too powerful for anyone at Boruto's level to compete against. At least with the Akatsuki you had a range of strengths, so even an early Part II Sasuke could take on a weaker member like Deidara.
I guess Ao was sort of at their level, but he was around for like 5 chapters, and Konohamaru had to help them, plus they got boosts from ninja tech.
When Delta, someone who isn't the leader, goes toe-to-toe with Naruto and barely loses (granted Naruto didn't go all out, but he did have to try a little bit) you knew there was a problem. It feels like it's gonna be the Naruto/Sasuke show until Boruto/Kawaki are strong enough. A pretty shitty situation to be in for the next 100+ chapters at best.
They should've gone with a threat that was legitimate to chunins, that could continue to grow until they become kage-tier, and not something that Naruto/Sasuke can take care of.
Ootsusukis are out of the question because Sasuke would be on the case ASAP, and they're way too strong for Boruto & Co.
Kind of impossible to kill off Naruto at the start, too, so it doesn't leave you much to work with.
Oh well, Salad's extremely cute, so I'm gonna enjoy it regardless.
Thanks.
the boruto anime is great when it isn't about boruto
Why would it be mentioned in the manga when there's no reason to bring it up
The entire anime is filler
I want a movie about Best Boy, Kiba
Love this dork.
Pits
qt ninja
>Filler isn't bad, it's what made Naruto special
Not the special you think
Would totally watch one about him and team 8, they're based asf
The series needs more Sumire, somehow it’s much more interesting when she’s around
Whether people enjoyed the filler arcs or not, you can't deny that they were important in giving all the side-characters necessary screen-time.
For having such a large cast, it was impressive how many characters were so memorable.
Sarada's shoulders!
She's so beautiful.
Salad!
hima is pretty cute too
Not to mention he was alive in the Shikamaru novel.
>I think Kodachi failed with Kara being a good threat. They're all way too powerful for anyone at Boruto's level to compete against. At least with the Akatsuki you had a range of strengths, so even an early Part II Sasuke could take on a weaker member like Deidara.

The expendable "Outers" like Ao and that guy Kawaki disemboweled will probably serve as opponents for the new gen. Right now, the "Inners" are out of the equation for them to fight, unless there is a timeskip and everyone gets buffed up or they jump a single Inner in large groups and hope to overpower them by sheer numbers.
>shoulders
Mein neger
Right there was the guy that Kawaki murderized, who was around for a chapter or two.
Similar situation to Ao, they don't really feel like villains/ good oppononents because of how short-lived their relevance was.
For example, a handful of Akatsuki were fought numerous times, and appeared over a large range of chapters/episodes.
It just feels like we're wasting time seeing Naruto fight Jigen, I'd rather see Naruto tied up with something and New Team 7 out on missions investigating Kara and fighting an Outer or 2.
We did get that but for like 4 chapters and the past several have been in the village, focused on Naruto/Sasuke.
Must protect her smile.
imagine the smell of those feet
Salad's pits are insane
I want to fuck Himawari
Boruto has ugly designs.. like Sarada straight up looks like an asian bitch who studies too much
It's not like in Naruto where we had awesome sluts like Ino wearing those bandages for underwear.
Ah fuck I don't even care about Naruto I just came in here for the feet
Sasuke sure tried his best to destory that smile
Quality Sarada hentai. That´s it. And it should be enough for the likes of you.
I want to suck Sarada’s dick!
Sarada's VA really nailed that scene in the anime.
Amazing!
>Sarada straight up looks like an asian bitch who studies too much
She is kinda supposed to be that aside from the large anime eyes that turn red.
Even then dear God its bad
early shippuden had amazing pace of story too. by ep 20 they were fighting sasori.
why is boruto so shit?
I can’t tell if this is a trap or not, I never read Naruto.
No manga to catch up on so the anime staff is left to do whatever they want as long as it doesn't conflict/go past the manga.
So it's been 90% filler which most people hate.
Salad is a cute girl, baka.
Uzumaki household episodes are nice and comfy.
Best ship
Looking back,Naruto filler were pretty good.
No it wasn't, shut up.
Whatchu talkin' bout? Part one filler is better than Canon Boruto.
Oh yes, Tiger Mizuki and the "Idiot Brothers" were totally good
the curse of a monthly manga with a weekly anime
They were pretty bad but to compensate there are really good arcs,with Boruto it's going downhill from the beginning other than chunin exams and vs momoshiki.
I mean i liked a couple of them, they got better especially towards the end. Boruto has been decent recently (but it'll probably go back to being shit when the current arc ends)
Sarada hips and thighs
niggers that draw steam are the fucking worst artists.
that is never going to happen irl, for fucks sake
Why do people like feet? They stink.
Honestly this manga/anime would have been better with Sarada as the main protagonist.
People actually like the Uchiha, nobody gives a shit about the Hyuuga.
Anal.
Filler made Naruto special. Remember Tiger the Toni arc??
What I wouldn't give to fuck the shit out of sarada, then give her lots of loving aftercare
>stirrup leggings
>often wears heels
They know exactly what they're doing
definitely one of my favorites along with shikamaru
Boruto fucking sucks and is only worth watching for the girls. Sarada, Namide, Sumire, Wasabi, and all them make my dick doki doki
Also explain this shit
>"Chuunin exams are about your skill, not tools, you're disqualified"
>Shuriken and kunai are ok
>even Tentens giant ass scythes and iron balls
>Dosu and Zaku's arm canons which shoot air are ok
>Dogs and bugs are ok
>Gaara's sand gourde is ok
>Temari's fan is ok
>Kankuro's puppets are ok
All of those require training and in some cases the user's chakra. The ninja tool was a literal win button.
Hinata is basically a non-character in the manga. Fillers really did give her the time to grow in the anime.
>No Boruto you can’t use a ninja tool that anyone can use in this exam!
>What do you mean it’s not fair, and that I used a giant chakra monster in my exam?!
>That was totally different!
user, quit lying and go fuck off to /d/ to post your disgusting fetishes.
Current arc is kinda fun
Reminder that the Alliance struggled to take down these two men.
Those all require skill and the users chakra to work. The thing Boruto had was literally just pocket jutsu and needed no skill.
Both of them had hax abilities
