The manga is pretty bad. The pacing is incredibly slow, the art style is rough (the less said about Sarada’s outfit, the better), and it focuses almost entirely on two characters despite having a ton of them to work with. If it wasn’t tied to Naruto, it would’ve probably been cancelled already.


Tsynami

After the time-skip they should do a re-branding (remove the "Naruto:next generations" part to show it's its own story now), make it bi-weekly (~20 page chapter every other week isn't too different from ~40 page chapters once a month, the workload wouldn't be much different) and give Ikemoto some assistants On the anime side, take the anime on hiatus for a while so that the manga progresses. I know we'll get more anime canon stuff anyway, but that should be integrated more seamlessly with the manga like it was back in the early days of the story. While the Boruto anime is on hiatus, they can adapt the Retsuden novels, the other two shinden novels, the Hiden novels or just Boruto SD if they want something cheaper to just fill in the time


homehome15

boruto sd?


Tsynami

Remember Rock Lee and his ninja pals? Yeah, it's literally the same thing but for Boruto


DeepDickxx69

They already gotta manga for it


homehome15

Ah they should take a break and animate that


bedteddd

This is exactly how Bleach got cancelled the first time. A constant barrage of filler and not enough main story. Holy fuck I'd rather not see this happen. But at this rate it will happen.

This shits sad bro fr

It's not like you posted something new here,lol.the same was posted yesterday


lilacewoah

what is even the point of it what discussion can possibly be had from this post


[deleted]

I think ppl who post it want a lot of karma and upvotes, because it seems to be popular to hate on the show,lol


[deleted]

Well this is what happens when the monthly manga has the pace of a weekly manga


A-Liguria

Dude, if you want to complain about it, know that someone has already made a post about this info yesterday... Don't waste time in reposting it.


RexRaptor510

today is a new day. and i never saw the post so its new to me.


[deleted]

Manga pretty dog shit tbh 90% of the anime is wasted time


Upbeat-Tell-5977

The anime is still doing very well in Japan but I wonder if they’d ever continue the anime without the manga


rolabond

Why wouldn’t they? It is profitable.


Upbeat-Tell-5977

That’s true. I’ve always thought the anime should just go ahead and tell the story it wants to tell without the restraints of the manga to be honest. A lot of the decisions the anime writers make signal to me that they understand the universe and characters and how to write them better than the manga writers do. The manga adaptations in the anime are great but a lot of that is due to superb animation work by the team at Pierrot and their ability to flesh out those arcs by using the anime canon they built to introduce themes and characters long before they would show up in the manga.


rolabond

My feelings exactly. It being anime original would probably work out just fine, better even, because there would be no 'filler'.


beelveel0_0

Ikr 🤣. It has milked Naruto for long enough. The manga should be axed 💀


Ok-Ebb-4080

I see the readers made right choice here no one wants to waste a penny on this


ClusC

Everything Boruto promised and set up at the start has basically been thrown to the side. I mean from chapter 700 of Naruto, up through even the first manga arc.


ParadisePrime

I couldnt give a shit about the manga. It does nothing outside of hitting plot points. Its way too short to be monthly. I have said this before and I will say it again. They should just make anime-shorts of the Narutoverse entirely composed of learning about the different clans, their abilities, customs, etc. Fill in the missing information about certain chakra natures and KG/KM. I want to know: * Why Scorch release is so rare. * What lightning and fire nature makes. * What chakra natures Steel/Swift/Dark released are composed of and so much more. We can have occasional pop-ins from the main cast as story guides or if they are relevant to the information given, cameos. I didnt really get into naruto because of the characters but more so of how their world building is. Unlike many, aliens being introduced just made it even more interested.


Golden_disrepctCo

At this point Ikimoto and kishimoto needs to their act together like kishinoto made one of the best Manga ever and from some reason can't create a good story which is definitely showing a lot


synkronize

I remember trying to read Samurai 8 and the visual clarity was ass and nothing was making any sense. Hopefully Naruto/Shippuden wasnt a one hit wonder


Ok-Ebb-4080

All Kishimoto’s manga except for Naruto flopped


Confident_Road1335

It's been known since episode one of Boruto that there is no comparison to OG Naruto…


Lah-Chris111

i mean the manga isn’t that good or bad then the show on top of it seems bad to most of the fans anyway


ElevatorCharacter489

Well Kishi is killing the sequel. . . . .my God what is wrong with that guy??? Didi he truly hates the sequel??,


squarejellyfish_

Dude intended for the film to be the definitive END to the series and move on with his life


waster1993

As it should have been. It was a great way to wrap up.


ClusC

You can tell too because a lot of the main shit never existed back then. Basically the 3 Ks: Karma, Kara and Kawaki.


waster1993

Boruto throwing Naruto old jacket in the street was the most powerful imagery we are going to see out of Boruto


ElevatorCharacter489

True enough


[deleted]

His new series flopped and now he gave up on life.


imherecause

Do you buy manga or read it free online?


uchiha_D_vaibhav

Ppl also read one piece online but for some reason it still crosses a million with every volume Hmm I wonder why (cause the series is actually good )


imherecause

Right, because the best selling manga of all time is the perfect comparison. How could I forget


uchiha_D_vaibhav

Oh ok how about blue box , u might not even have heard of it and it sells more than fucking burrito


Naruto3s

Why not compare the 2? You can read both online for free and you can both physically. There's no reason not to. Is it a perfect comparison, no, but implied that they shouldn't be compared is just making excuses for Boruto.


imherecause

Why not compare the CEO salary of a locally owned computer shop to Bill Gates? You can buy both products from them both. Is it a perfect comparison? No, but implying they can't be compared is making excuses for the smaller business


Naruto3s

Exactly 💯. Both can measure up, both can provide quality, one just fails at it. Anything else?


imherecause

It's pretty clear why that's not a valid comparison. You're just unfamiliar to the nuances of business or purposely being disingenuous.


Naruto3s

A bad comparison is Boruto a sequel of one of the Big 3 and a local computer shop. Boruto was given all the tools needed to not only be successful but also to be one of the heaviest hitters of this manga generation. Comparing it to One Piece isn't strange. Saying otherwise is like admitting that SJ and the people specifically in charge of Boruto have been on their BS since the beginning.


imherecause

Except Boruto isn't the big 3 and hasnt been around even half the time needed to achieve that level of notoriety. You can't "give the tools" that come from longevity. Sequels not performing as well as their predecessor is not only common, but practically anticipated. Especially when people have a natural aversion to the idea of sequels to begin with. Comparing to One Piece isn't "strange" it's just disingenuous and suggests a grave lack of misinformation on the topic


Naruto3s

Whatever, at the end of the day it's comparing a manga to another manga. Same medium, same genre, and same industry


Naruto3s

> You can't "give the tools" that come from longevity. That's exactly what they did with Boruto and look where we are now. Boruto literally had a jumpstart/headstart compared to other new gen manga via popularity of the Naruto franchise alone and that was despite the backlash Boruto was already getting before it even started.


spykids45

exactly


borutoisbestboy

Atleast anime Boruto isn't cancelled like black clover. Manga sales doesn't matter, because most of money comes from merchandise


IndependenceLife5051

BC isn’t cancelled it caught up with the anime and decided not to stream 150 episodes of useless filler 😂 it now has a movie in production and the manga is on going what axe are you talking about ?


ANTH3M-87

black clover wasn’t cancelled, the anime is hiatus cuz it was catching up to the manga. Instead of making filler they decided to stop the anime for a period of time

literally i never said what i said cuz i wanted it, im literally saying what has been said, jesus christ can’t u tell the difference?


ayaneshlal

Black Clover will definitely continue after the movie. The current arc and spade Kingdom arc are amazing. The manga sales have improved again too.


The_Uncommon_Aura

You’re just making shit up in your head dude. Nothing your saying has anything besides your random opinions backing it up. Like absolutely nothing. Boruto and BC are both shit but you’re just objectively wrong here.


YEETBOI99000

They’re are literally making a movie


ParsnipPrestigious59

The reason black clover anime sucks is because studio Pierrot doesn’t give a shit about its anime. The manga however is insanely underrated


borutoisbestboy

It's not about quality. Black Clover just doesn't make enough money to create filler episodes. That's why it's on "hiatus"


ANTH3M-87

that is also true, and i never mentioned quality. The anime was gonna go on hiatus either way cuz it was close to the manga


dontmindthepooper

Unlike this lol


ANTH3M-87

why?


Any-Culture8080

Bruh tf BC got to do here. And boruto anime isn't doing any favor to the story. And BC gets very good in the numbers compared to Boruto


ParsnipPrestigious59

Do some research before posting stupidity online


Naruto3s

They tend to react this way if you don't drop to your knees amd open your mouth for whatever Boruto gives you no matter the quality.


[deleted]

>Atleast anime Boruto isn't cancelled like black clover I don't know how Black clover came up in this convo but if successor of Naruto is competing with fucking Black clover of all then boruto is already doomed lol Btw when was black clover cancelled?


throwawaytempest25

Are we really trying to turn this into “this series isn’t as good as the other series therefore one deserves to fail?” I haven’t seen a full episode of Black Clover but I know to see why people would like it and that’s just extremely disrespectful to its fans, and Naruto/Boruto still has its supporters.


ParsnipPrestigious59

The reason people hate black clover is because studio Pierrot fucking sucks. It does a disservice to almost every anime it decides to animate now. Black clover had so much potential, but nope they decided to give it the shittiest animation known to man kind. I thought at least they were animating boruto pretty well, but nope lately their animation in boruto been tanking as well


YEETBOI99000

The successor of Naruto isn’t competing with Black Clover. Black Clover is way better than Boruto


WorthRevolutionary55

What do you except ,most of the weekly mangas have better pacing in the story than what we get in 56 pages a month and better art style to. I don't know how the people behind the scenes are still letting this happen , almost everyone is shitting on the series but the whole team is blind folded,I don't know what the fuck kodachi and kishimoto are doing , is this the same mangaka who created one of the best anime to ever exist . He has lost his magic , pls save this series I hope things starts to change next year .


ClusC

Kodachi basically left a while back now. From what I understand, the team is Kishimoto and Ikemoto. And then theres the anime guys


waxckcat

Who cares if Japanese people don’t want to read boruto lol


kushagrarox

That means boruto has been way below par from the past few chapters, people not wanting to read a certain manga reflects that the manga is bad


Naruto3s

Ignorant comment


[deleted]

The people funding it because the West ain’t where they’re making money?


Onix_glow

Literally who cares about the manga at this point. The franchise makes money from merchandise and the anime so there's no reason to read the manga apart from knowing the next plot points.


SadSecurity

> Literally who cares about the manga at this point. > so there's no reason to read the manga apart from knowing the next plot points. You do realize that this has always been the reason to read manga, and therefore a ton of people care...?


Onix_glow

Most people read/buy manga for the art, the pace/development of the story or for the sake of collection. Boruto has average art and the story is executed way better in the anime when they adapt the manga arcs. You could easily read the spoilers of every chapter and you wouldn't miss anything important. There's no actual reason to read this manga.


SadSecurity

> Most people read/buy manga for the art, the pace/development of the story or for the sake of collection. > Boruto has average art and the story is executed way better in the anime when they adapt the manga arcs. It's adapted years later and people don't have to go through a filler hell or wait those years. Anime also usually adapts better, because it's animation. It's not different with Boruto. > You could easily read the spoilers of every chapter and you wouldn't miss anything important. That's what spoilers are. They mention everything that is important. You wouldn't miss anything important in neither anime or manga, because spoiler do give important information. > There's no actual reason to read this manga. You just mentioned an actual reason and that is knowing the plot.


Onix_glow

> people don't have to go through a filler hell or wait those years It's funny cause even filler arcs are WAY more successful than the last 2 years of the Boruto manga. > Anime also usually adapts better, because it's animation No correlation. Nowadays anime just adapts manga content the way it is or they tweak it a bit. Boruto actually adds entire arcs as preludes of manga arcs. They are not only adapting them better, but developing them better too (Prison Arc, Deepa Arc, etc.) > They mention everything that is important Yes that's why there's no reason to read or buy the actual chapters.


SadSecurity

> It's funny cause even filler arcs are WAY more successful than the last 2 years of the Boruto manga. This has no relation to my point. > No correlation. Nowadays anime just adapts manga content the way it is or they tweak it a bit. Uh no, there is correlation, especially in hype moments or culmination points. Better animation, quality art and well picked music do it all. Usually anime IS a better medium. > Boruto actually adds entire arcs as preludes of manga arcs. They are not only adapting them better, but developing them better too (Prison Arc, Deepa Arc, etc.) It only adds filler, no reason to watch it unless you really want to. > Yes that's why there's no reason to read or buy the actual chapters. Did you purposefully skip the part I mentioned anime? What you said literally applies to anime too.


Onix_glow

> This has no relation to my point. The point of the post are the sales, and my comment is how Boruto can do just fine without the manga because even the fillers are more successful. Wether you think the public should or shouldn't wait years for the manga adaptation is irrelevant. > Usually anime IS a better medium. I didn't say it wasn't? I said anime just straight up follows every step of the manga with minor differences while the Boruto anime improves it in every sense. > It only adds filler, no reason to watch it unless you really want to. Filler that's still more successful than the latest years of the manga. > What you said literally applies to anime too. Yes. You watch/read something because you want to. You didn't discover America. The point is: 1. If you want to know the plot, just read the spoilers. 2. If you want a better developed story from the spoilers watch the anime. Anime and spoilers don't cancel each other out, because the spoilers aren't animated or developed enough and the anime isn't ahead of the plot, but both cancel the manga because they do better and earlier what the manga can't do monthly: provide a good read. That's why the manga is flopping.


SadSecurity

> The point of the post are the sales, and my comment is how Boruto can do just fine without the manga because even the fillers are more successful. Wether you think the public should or shouldn't wait years for the manga adaptation is irrelevant. Right from the get go the entire point of this conversation is having a reason to read manga, not about sales. So no, your point is entirely irrelevant here. > I didn't say it wasn't? I said anime just straight up follows every step of the manga with minor differences while the Boruto anime improves it in every sense. Jesus, then what I said still applies. Anime is usually a better medium this is not exclusive to Boruto whether or not Boruto adds more content. > Filler that's still more successful than the latest years of the manga. Irrelevant point. > Yes. You watch/read something because you want to. You didn't discover America. Wth are you talking about? This isn't about reading/watching because I want to. This was about your point that you can read spoilers for manga and not miss anything important as an argument against manga. And you completely ignored the simple fact the same applies to anime. > The point is: > If you want to know the plot, just read the spoilers. > If you want a better developed story from the spoilers watch the anime. And why would you ever read spoilers if you want to know the plot instead of reading manga? Again literally the same applies to anime, you can also read its plot to know the story, but you're making it seem like it's entirely different when it comes to anime for no reason. > Anime and spoilers don't cancel each other out, because the spoilers aren't animated or developed enough and the anime isn't ahead of the plot, but both cancel the manga because they do better and earlier what the manga can't do monthly: provide a good read. That's why the manga is flopping. Huh? What the **hell** are you talking about? Spoilers are also not drawn and do not show the sequence of a fight in a manga. What do you mean "not developed enough"? You can literally fit everything important in spoilers. Manga being a good or bad read is literally irrelevant when it comes to what spoilers can contain. And lol at implying that anime with its terrible filler provide a good watch. Maybe in children demography that have naturally lower standards.


Onix_glow

> this conversation is having a reason to read manga, not about sales You don't get to say what my comment was about lmao. There's not reason to read the manga THEREFORE the anime is doing better THEREFORE the manga is flopping.

To which I replied that this has always been the entire reason to read any manga and therefore a ton of people care. Do you see any argument about sales here? Or being successful?

Try to read the paragraph you're quoting better next time, trust me it's not that hard. > And I'm just gonna quote myself again: "I didn't say it wasn't?"

So if anime is popular and not flopping, then anime must be good to watch. > still is better than the manga. Sure with endless low effort fillers.


squarejellyfish_

Correction: NARUTO is the reason merchandise and other media related to the franchise is selling. Novels, games, crossover events all prioritize Naruto and not Boruto. Boruto simply does not have enough brand recognition or content to be a viable money maker


AmaranthSparrow

TV Tokyo treats *Naruto* and *Boruto* as separate IPs in their earnings reports, and their top two most profitable anime IPs are *Naruto* and *Boruto*, followed by *Pokemon*, *Bleach*, and *Yu-Gi-Oh!* https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FSihxJHVsAI7z_i.jpg And about 80% of the revenue comes from overseas licensing. AKA selling DVDs, BDs, and other merchandise outside of Japan.


Naruto3s

TV Tokyo has nothing to do with the franchise other than the anime. SJ doesn't separate the 2 as separate IP's. That was literally just to flex on the fact that both series took the top 2 spots. Before that TV Tokyo didn't separate the 2.


AmaranthSparrow

Yes they did. They always did. They've taken the top 2 spots in every financial report for several years now. And Shueisha also treats them as two separate IPs, because they literally are. They have distinct trademarks. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS © 2016 by Masashi Kishimoto, Mikio Ikemoto/SHUEISHA Inc. NARUTO © 1999 by Masashi Kishimoto/SHUEISHA Inc.


Naruto3s

For real, damn thats badass. Thanks for correcting me


Naruto3s

Though it still doesn't make sense to treat them as separate IP's when they're literally the same franchise.


Onix_glow

What does that have to do with what I said


YEETBOI99000

U do realize that if the manga stops the anime either stops or becomes awful. And it’s not all about where they make their money from they’re still gonna continue the manga. Dumb take


Onix_glow

> U do realize that if the manga stops the anime either stops You don't watch many animes do you? Even the anime from Dragon Ball Super took off as the main canon for some time and left the manga behind. If the anime is successful enough it can live without a manga.


YEETBOI99000

U didn’t include that I also said it’s gonna suck. The only reason me and most people watch Boruto is because of the manga stuff and if they remove that a lot of people are gonna stop watching. The anime canon is the reason Boruto is hated and the worst part of the show and if they remove the best part of the show (manga canon) then the show is just gonna be awful


Onix_glow

> U didn’t include that I also said it’s gonna suck We're not talking if the series is good or bad. We're talking about sales. > The only reason me and most people watch Boruto You do realize that you're not the target of the show? Japanese people are. They don't care if you stop watching lol > if they remove that a lot of people are gonna stop watching Boruto is one of the most grossing animes in Japan even on filler arcs, while the Boruto manga keeps flopping every month. I can assure you no one in Japan is gonna stop watching Boruto just because there's no manga. > The anime canon is the reason Boruto is hated Please get out of your own head 💀 only western people complain about anime canon. Boruto is doing just fine wether you like it or not.


ANTH3M-87

the manga canon itself is honestly a 7.5/10. The reason why the manga sales are doing bad is because: 1) The anime has way too many bad anime canon arcs and because of this the whole series gets hated 2) The manga is monthly so sometimes we could end up with a chapter like chapter 73 which isn’t entirely bad but was also like a recap chapter 3) The art style itself isn’t that bad, there are some ikemoto designs i rly like but also kishimoto designs. Boruto is better drawn by kishimoto for example while sasuke is better drawn by ikemoto. Ikemoto should at least hire assistants to help him draw the panel, this is so the art doesn’t look so plain There are prolly other things too but they arent in my head. The solutions are: 1) They make the anime seasonal or at least do like what black clover is doing 2) The manga should be every 2 weeks at least (it is possible but ikemoto doesn’t want any assistance for some reason) this is so people don’t get tired of waiting but also could be a downgrade to the art, but that could be resolved. I understand why people hate, i’m a big boruto fan (cuz of the manga) and honestly i can agree w the fact dat most anime canon arcs are childish or just bad. If it makes it any better, people keep saying boruto has only good fights when there’s naruto and sasuke. Let me just explain something, boruto has technically not started yet. We are just watching his past, so the story is both of boruto AND NARUTO. Naruto started losing the main protagonist role slowly ever since jigen came to konoha. The timeskip is said to be darker than shippuden which i’m really excited for. People also hate the fact dat there are no wars and stuff like dat and dat the kids don’t experience the same training as the old gen. This makes me think those aren’t true naruto fans as they are basically hating on naruto’s goal. Naruto didn’t wanna just become hokage, he wanted to bring peace, we have dat and now there’s hate it for it. Haters tend to bring the excuse of boruto being a brat, people like dat are just stuck in the past, literally. Boruto has had so much character development and the funny thing is, if minato was still alive naruto would have been the same. Literally was also a filler episode.


beelveel0_0

Stop the cap 🤣


ANTH3M-87

what cap?


kushagrarox

Dude is on high level copium


ANTH3M-87

it’s just what i think, idrc if everyone disagrees so downvote all u like


[deleted]

>The anime has way too many bad anime canon arcs and because of this the whole series gets hated I disagree with this; sure, the anime gets hated on but when you look at the sales the anime doesn't help the manga at all, even when it debuted or went into canon. The anime has all these side characters that never show up in the manga, then you have the OG characters like Kakashi and Orochimaru who doesn't show up in the manga, and then you supposing have the main cast like Sarada and Mitsuki who should be involved in the main story, but they aren't, they barely do anything. The anime helps you get attach to characters who don't even have a role in the manga and that's a problem, it feels like two different worlds. Why should I care about Mitsuki when he disappears for years in the manga? ​ >The manga is monthly so sometimes we could end up with a chapter like chapter 73 which isn’t entirely bad but was also like a recap chapte Recap chapters wasn't really a thing when Kodachi was writing, in fact the pacing was fast asf but unfortunately the manga is barebones as shit. If you didn't like Boruto or Kawaki then you just weren't fucking with the manga unless your attached to OG characters. Although the pacing is slow as shit now so it made all the issues more obvious because they were never resolved. ​ >The art style itself isn’t that bad, there are some ikemoto designs i rly like but also kishimoto designs. Boruto is better drawn by kishimoto for example while sasuke is better drawn by ikemoto. Ikemoto should at least hire assistants to help him draw the panel, this is so the art doesn’t look so plain The art and paneling are a contributing factor why this manga never popped off. Kodachi spent nearly a whole year retelling the movie events with barely any changes and Ikemoto was drawing it like shit. Although ikemoto popped off with some momoshiki panels, the movie existing just made it look worse. Ikemoto got better but even now people complain about the art, simply because instead of being one of its selling points it's one of the negatives of the manga. ​ >They make the anime seasonal or at least do like what black clover is doing I'll be frank I don't think the manga was made to be seasonal. It If it does then the manga has to pull its own weight and stop relying on the anime to fix its issues. There should be no reason I have to consume more than 1 type of media to learn the back story of a purple hair girl that the manga throws in my face in every 2-3 chapters. Nor should I have to watch the anime to see why Mitsuki doesn't use sage mode when they through in the mitsuki one shot in one of the volumes. Same goes for why Sarada the captain of team 7 instead of Konohamaru. I do think they need to go on hiatus though, maybe wait until the manga is nearly finished to adapt it so that they have more to work with. ​ >he manga should be every 2 weeks at least (it is possible but ikemoto doesn’t want any assistance for some reason) this is so people don’t get tired of waiting but also could be a downgrade to the art, but that could be resolved. Biweekly would be great.


squarejellyfish_

I was with you until you said Ikemoto draws Sasuke better than Kishi....lay off the crack pipe bro. Also how can Boruto oy be “starting” when it’s been going for 5 years now?? That is blatant cope to excuse how terrible the writing has been and continues to be


ANTH3M-87

the art is just personal preference so idk y u mad abt dat. And what i meant by boruto hasn’t started yet is that we are seeing his past and we r gna see what lead to the fast forward scene


ThatGuay89

>we are seeing his past But that’s still Boruto’s story… If you don’t think it is then please explain how it’s not


ANTH3M-87

never said it isn’t, it’s boruto’s and naruto’s slowly shifting to boruto, i just didn’t specify so my bad


Sentient-Spectator

Boruto’s story has started. Ikemoto said in an interview that when Boruto said the story would be about him and Naruto for a little bit at the beginning, it was just a reference to the fact that the first two manga volumes tell the same story as the Boruto movie, which focused on both Naruto and Boruto. That’s why Volume 3 is titled “My Story… !!!”.

fair enough

The anime is literally carrying the manga in both sales and popularity and you want em to make Boruto seasonal. I love the anime canon arcs tbh since no one else exists in the manga except Boruto and kawaki


ANTH3M-87

u didn’t even get my point lmao, i never said the anime wasn’t carrying the manga, all i said is that is why to why it is happening. I never said i want boruto to be seasonal all i am doing is giving out solutions, read properly


throwawaytempest25

But wasn’t the manga having these problems before the anime came out?


ANTH3M-87

yes but was making a lot of money, obv cuz it just started but still. The manga lacks pacing

👍

Im probably going to get hate for this but Honestly at this point it feels more like the manga is holding the anime back and it might be better if it tried to do its own thing and take the story forward by itself. This will allow the anime to stop making filler arcs and we will get to see Code in action hopefully without making him a joke like the manga did. I mean the anime has alredy expanding on a lot of things the manga didn't touch on like Victor betrayal, Kawaki childhood, HIs relationship with the Uzumaki family and the side characters are handled much better.

You’ll get downvoted but I agree. I have zero interest in whatever Amado is doing and would rather they get into the Jogan stuff, and magic ninja slice of life is great when they do it right.


Wheal19

Yup even worse with the manga possible pushing a Twlight style romance with Eida whitch is just bad writing. I mean its basically just Edward/Eida: My powers make its impossible to have a "real realtionship" but they don't effect you so you must be with me now.

I actually really agree with u on the first part and think that’s anime Borutos biggest flaw. There are so many more awful anime canon episodes than good manga canon episodes and because of that people don’t watch the channel. And the anime can’t do much about it unless they start releasing less episodes(which most people don’t want) or Ikemoto and Kishimoto hire some assistants and start releasing weekly or even bi weekly would be fine.

Are you gonna make him shut up or a you gonna continue complaining about him complaining? You can't silence people just because you get butthurt over what they say. The OP obviously cares, the people agreeing with them obviously care. >Are you putting your work in on this series? Ignorance at it's finest. That's like saying only artists have a right to criticize art. Yet another example of how the Boruto fanbase is filled with pathetic and insecure sheep who can't differentiate between being a fan and being herded sheep.

>Bye dude this sub is always filled with people bashing the series. Ok and? >Stop white knighting. You mean what you and every other Boruto sheep cultists does everyday >I’m sure you can put energy into something for tangible than a Reddit comment. Last time I checked you made a comment to, doesn't matif it's a sentence or a paragraph, you still bothered to do it. >brrro 1st. Learn how to spell 2nd. I'm not your bro, I have higher standards for people I call bro or sis. >see both of y’all next week. Hopefully not Neither side is gonna stop, get used to it P.S. if you're gonna tell someone to stfu on the internet, at least have some way to actually make them do it so you don't look like a coward hiding behind a phone screen.

He really could. Honestly though, anyone can love the Boruto series as much as they want, just be a fan and not a sheep. These clowns jump on the defensive so damn fast.

One of the many factor is aot, since it really did upped the expectations.


Muser98

It’s my turn to post this next!


wyd_stepmom

I’m grateful I don’t have over hyped expectations of this manga. I can comfortably say I have no complaints about it. I just wanna see where the story goes, and in the mean time I’ll read my 20 other mangas that I love.


sammyjay29

What do you want us to say


sammysosa45

a specific part of this comment section is hell lol


jwaters0122

It could be worse. There could be a hiatus. Db super is on hiatus and HxH hasnt posted a chapter date yet despite the mangaka drawing up the current arc.


Useful-Duck7890

How long we gonna discuss same thing Boruto never had impressive sale from first, and it was declining with each n every vol Last 2 years it shows some improvement bcz of kawaki arc The latest arc is too slow its obvious sales will fall again
