How did they fuck it up so bad as a series?

Editor didnt tell the writer to go fuck himself and redo it
That´s not Samurai 8.
not enough o dem thighs
Shitty artist and shitty writer. Kishimoto should have hired the author who wrote the best naruto movie/filler/light novel, and hired an animator who can actually draw his style to draw it. Like sekibeing.
they focused on boruto's boring life instead of Sarada's rise to hokage. they also didn't make karin Sarada's mom.
The new characters are unlikeable and half of the old cast looks pathetic.
It only exists to print money. There's almost no passion behind it.
If Sarada's parents were Sasuke and Karin, but she was raised by Sakura married to Lee, and the show was focused on her, then it would be good. also replace mitsuki with somebody interesting.
>those fucking legs
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Mitsuki is the only redeeming character in the series
he would be cool if he had more than one character trait. He really needs to have more going on than "omg I love you boruto you are the light of my life I will follow you to hell and back and I am nothing without you I am nothing when I'm not hanging out near you being silent"
boruto is a concept for nobody
>naruto fans pissed that all of his talking about how he's going to change things and stop the constant cycles of ninja war has been completely thrown in the garbage so that he can be le funny absent salaryman dad while the exact same ninja war shit happens all over again
>new fans won't care about a series so attached to a long running series from before they were even sentient
>people who just want to jerk off to salad won't actually buy the volumes because she doesn't do anything
The characters are bland and retreads of their parent characters and the series tried to go for a laidback SoL modern day ninja story which made no sense.
Dragon Ball Z syndrome
>here is your new protagonist he is called Gohan
>*Goku and Vegeta do everything*
By not progressing Boruhina
boruto really should continue the tradition of hyugas marrying their cousins. but I guess that would mean hanabi would need to have a kid.
They flanderized his character but he has an interesting premise and could be made into one of the most interesting characters in the series with a good writer. I can see him finding his own footing and turning away from Boruto at some point due to Kawaki.
I just don't think he should be on team 7
Boruto doesn't have a Byakugan which in turn doesn't open up the series into getting stick Taijutsu duels with the Gentle Fist.
>build up characters to get cool powers for years
>finally Sasuke has strongest dojutsu
>finally Naruto can control Kurama
>skip and make them jobber grandpas
It doesn't appeal to the original fanbase, plus it has no reason to be liked without watching the original, but we already said the original fans don't like it.
Gohan is based though.
I like boruto too, but it doesn't make any sense that
>everyone is the same age
>nothing happened in the 12 years they were growing up
Absolute forced garbage, not even fanfics are this retarded.
Plus hokage Naruto is shit
The monthly releases along with the need for the anime to not take a hiatus are the biggest weaknesses.
Mitsuki changed from that stance after his disappearance arc. Mitsuki learned how to be his own person and started to appreciate other people more, including Sarada and Chocho.
the manga has really bad art, and the boruto anime is full kids-only with a really low budget like dragon ball super
He should be on the team but not boruto. Himawari, Sarada and Mitsuki would be an OP dream team. Byakugan, Sharingan and sage mode.
It's nothing but a blatant cashgrab with no soul,. trying to emulate the success of DBZ but failing miserable to understand why it succeeded.
except gentle fist did not hold up as an end of series fighting style. if hinata was not buffed by nine tails chakra she would be doing nothing in the final battle. Hell even though taijutsu was one of the few things that worked on 10 tails madara, gentle fist still did nothing.
gentle fist was already useless against pain.
they made the right call giving boruto a new eye, but have they showed that his new eye is even half as hax as the base sharingan? or is it just a really lame form of sage mode hate sensing. like why does boruto need both a new eye and a god tattoo
the problem with Sarada being Sasuke's daughter, Boruto being Sasuke's disciple, and Mitsuki being Orochimaru's kid is that all three of them will end up summoning snakes. and the problem with snakes is that Kabuto was already peak snake sage. and the problem with sage is that Naruto still has 6 paths sage.
It’s unironically just fine
Just finally finished the new chapter.
So wtf, are we shingeki no kyojin now? This scientist guy trying to defect even looks identical to the ape titan guy.
his dissapearance arc was so nothing though it was absolute garbage. trying to ape the sasuke retrieval arc feel, trying to pass the rock men off as a kage level threat that could lose to genin. none of the rockmen surviving or finding a meaning to their existence. mitsuki learning absolutely nothing from interacting with them and just traitoring them. It's such a lame arc.
>Draws Sarada like a prostitute
Seriously I still don't get why no one has called out the drawer for this
It tried to turn Naruto's family into a lineage like the Joestar family. And failed miserably. Boruto turned out to be an even more unlikable shit than his father was
>gentle fist did not hold up
>my nigga Naruto usinf gentle fist against Momoshiki
Nah. Gentle fist is just fine.
It's just that no god tier ninja were using it at the time. Once Naruto was trained in it by Hizashi, it became just as viable.
Naruto's bloodline was already as broken as the jojo bloodline by the end of the series. even by the time that it was confirmed that he was related to Tsunade and Pain, and especially when it was confirmed he was related to ninja jesus, just like how jesus jesus was the first jojo.
as generic as Naruto was, at least it had soul
Boruto is just a cash grab
Also don't forget ruining Ohnoki's character and reverting all his development back to being the old from fence sitter from before the war arc. And then killing him off preventing any potential future usage. What a FUCKING waste that was.
i do not remember naruto using gentle fist against momoshiki. maybe its just because high tier hand to hand looks so effortless, and naruto never uses pressure points, and he already had a version of hinatas tiger fists with frog kumite.
Nah, you just have shit taste.
Or you’re a Narutard who’s stuck in the past
>The children are exponentially stronger than their parents when they were older
Hate this shit
Not him but if you really think Boruto is better than the trash Naruto was back then then your mental retardation has no cure.
I don't have the webm saved but rewatch the fight. Naruto is very clearing using gentle fist style combat. Flat palms vs closed fists, using the elbow for power thrusts instead of the shoulder, etc.
It makes sense consider how much chakra he has, it is a much more viable way for him to create power than using raw muscles. He already has the ability to control chakra very accurately due to his rassengan training. Note that rotation is litteraly just a giant rasengan and is more tha likely what the 4th took inspiration from.
It also makes a lot of sense for Naruto to have taken up gentle fist training, not only due to his natural affinity for it and marital ties to the Hyuuga family, but also he has a fake arm. I doubt that arm is able to be trained as intensely as his real one. He needed a way to obtain powerful taijutsu using a wood arm transplant.
Naruto was objectively a 6/10 series that I stuck with due to nostalgia and wanting to see it through the end after 10+ years.
Boruto otoh is 2/10 garbage with a bland shit cast of characters including waifubait garbage.
boruto's fights are not well animated, most of it's story arcs are not exciting or engaging. the two best parts of the show were the well animated fights featuring naruto and sasuke, none of the side characters are memorable besides chocho and shikadai, boruto may be trying to experience character growth but he's not showing it well.
Sarada's Uchiha cunny is the only good thing Boruto has and will ever produce.
>t. naruto uzumaki
the 4th hokage explicitly took inspiration from the tailed beast bomb to create the rasengan.
naruto is not a precision fighter, and it is said very early on that gentle fist works best with a byakugan. which isn't to say that if all taijutsu is either gentle or brutal fist that naruto wouldn't ever use techniques that would be considered gentle fist techniques, but high level hand to hand is not what hentle fist was explained to be back when it was introduced. any attempts by naruto to throw chakra from his palms would seem to me to be an extension of frog kumite which he had on screen training with rather than hyuga gentle fist techniques which he may have had off screen training with.
Dont know if I should get into Boruto but have they done the timeskip already? Is Boruto a grown man/older teenager on the level of teen Naruto? Are the villains good? Should I even bother?
The villains are crap so far. And Boruto has the usual shonen protag requirement of having special powers, except that he's a spoiled brat who grew up with a silver spoon his mouth so it's not very interesting, narrative wise.
You don't even know what gentle fist style is. It's less to do with taijutsu movements and more to do with stopping your opponent's chakra flow through pin point accurate chakra hit incisions in critical chakra points on the body. Naruto does not have precise chakra control (on the level of Sakura) and does not have the eyes for that style. Only a Byakugan user can use gentle fist style.
>but if you really think Boruto is better than the trash Naruto was back then then your mental retardation has no cure.
Good thing I never said that, dumbass
>objectively
Stopped reading there
Naruto was just bad. If you think Boruto is "just fine" (by extension, better than Naruto) then you are a complete braindead.
2+2, retard.
You took what I said about Boruto and related it to how you feel about Naruto. I never called Naruto bad in the first place, you did. In trying to sound smart, you used the most nonsensical logic imaginable.
Gentle fist does not require pinpoint accurate attacks on chakra points. Rewatch the fight between neji and Hinata. Gentle fist is more about attacking and using bursts of chakra to damage internally rather than brute force.
The Hyuuga are just so adept for it because of the byakugan. They arent the exclusive users.
And Narutos chakra control IS good now. He uses the same principle when fighting pain to Extended his blows via his wind element. When I say good chakra control I dont mean pinpoint laser accuracy, just that he is good at bursting chakra from his hands into people because of his experience with rasengan!
Yea, say what you will about naruto, but he wasn't a spoiled brat. He was the town pariah that endured a rough childhood. Everyone treated him like shit and he had to adapt to adversity.
Boruto is that spoiled rich kid that's coasting off his daddy's success. Every good thing he has was inherited and he still acts like an ungrateful cunt. No one can relate to a brat like that.
This is so true man. I dont give a fuck if Boruto is a trash cash grab I just want to suck on Sarada's toes like a baby with his pacifier while she stares at me with those sharingan blood red eyes and a disgusted but mildly aroused face.
Also the manga artist is based just for drawing her like he does
looking at the wiki, the hyuga aren't the only users, but that's only because the ōtsutsuki have byakugan as well. it is absolutely only based on hitting chakra points on the body from chakra points on your own body, using techniques where the slightest tap does massive internal damage.
naruto can absolutely throw chakra from his body, but when we've seen him do it, most if the time it's been natural energy and sage chakra. naruto's chakra control is better now which is shown by him no longer needing clones to form a rasengan, but his style isn't to hit pressure points and disrupt chakra flow, it's not to hit internal organs, His style is to hit really fucking hard. his deflections and attacks in the generic pate game hand to hand are just that, deflections. typical martial arts techniques. if gentle fist was ised in the momoshiki fight, it was used by momoshiki.
>Gentle fist does not require pinpoint accurate attacks on chakra points.
Yes it does, because that's the fucking point of gentle fist style. It's not meant to cause outwardly physical damage, it's supposed to slowly destroy the inside of the enemy's vital chakra and organ systems by quickly cutting off chakra nodes through a small chakra scalpel incision with your fingers (which required top tier precises chakra control).
You can learn the basics but if you dont have the Byakugan it's next to impossible to master it unless you have a way of seeing your enemies chakra nodes without a Byakugan.
theoretically and playing devils advocate, could naruto's six path sage mode senses allow him to know where chakra pressure points are? it's not like that was ever answered because of how useless gentle fist was by the end of the series and how common seeing chakra was for anybody with special eyes.
It doesnt have to but nodes directly though. Even Neji and Hinata are rarely shown going directly for specific modes. It's more about using chakra to hit internally, the organs. And that is something any ninja with the right training could do.
I am not saying it is common. Just that it isnt Hyuga specific. Nothing about it is kekai genkai. In fact Kabuto uses the same style to fight Tsunade. The Hyuga are just notorious because they are able to aim directly at specific points and cut off the Flow of chakra.
wait you know the wind element was not what extended his blows against pain because that was sage mode and that while rasenshuriken did massive internal damage, it didn't do so with any degree of accuracy which is why naruto had to learn to throw it right?
hinata apparently stopped aiming because her lion fists just auto hit pressure points and massively drain chakra at a distance. and neji fucking died after spamming rotation for most of his screentime in shippuden.
