Queen.
seriously, its tragic one piece and DB super don't get this level of animation
Eh, I don't know about One Piece (because I irrationally hate it's artstyle), but Super's boring ass fight scenes don't really need fancy animations.
It would be like wasting good animation on a Ichigo fight in Bleach.

I also realized via this episode that Sasuke's VA didn't really try to change his characters voice from Shippuden to adulthood
same voice, same pitch
Naruto's VA at least deepened it a little or made him speak slower or something

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
this fucking episode with the fight scenes..wew Cant wait for Disney to buy the US rights to Boruto, edit all the blood from todays episode to green kool aid, and Shin is presumed dead from a broken heart.
new ED 😴
sounds like the movie arc has to start soon..i guess in a month. They already have to change some parts of it since Boruto knows Saradas dream now unless post credit stuff isnt canon. I hope they dont pull a DB Super and stretch the movie arc tor 20 episodes. I was going to get that Road To Boruto game since it seems to follow the movie plot and some stuff before and after.

That Sakura fight slayed. I wish Kishi gave her more of these in Shippuden.
I also wish he gave her more techniques besides Tsunade's.

Yeah, just last episode (or was it two weeks ago?) we've had a fight with some awful animation. If we cherry pic just the very best parts even One Piece and DB Super have great animation (though DB Super at least has a much higher baseline than One Piece nowadays).
I've always just ignored it, but super strength isn't hereditary right? Like, there's no kekkai genkai for it, the Haruno's aren't famous for it, it's basically just a byproduct of Tsunade's medical jutsu? So where is Sarada suddenly getting that herculean strength from?
Always thought it was a throwaway trait from Kishi in the gaiden so it didn't matter, but now it's confirmed, what's going on?
From what I remember, Sakura didn't exhibit super strength in the Chunin exams...and the only occasion you could argue for, I'd say was just psychological (vs. Ino).

The super strength is from perfect chakra control I believe. It's closer to a talent rather than a bloodline trait so theoretically, anyone can do it if they have the talent for it. Those punches that can seemingly split the earth and their ability lift insanely heavy objects comes from concentrating the flow of their chakra to certain parts of their body with extremely high precision when needed. Also know that just like Tsunade, at all times shes also managing to feed chakra into that jewel on her forehead while doing all these other things.

We've come a long way.
My head hurts when people post this gif as example of bad animation. It might not have art style you like but that is some damn fine animation (like most of Pain fight).

I can appreciate what they were going for, but in execution they made it look like a scene from loony tunes.

It's kinda strange how Shizune was never able to utilise super strength when she has showcased excellent chakra control, as shown by her using strands of Neji's hair to help repair his injuries after the Sound 4 battle. I mean she had a team to help her but still. Her level of chakra control should have been high enough to properly learn the ability imo.
First bump 👊

I think the dude that animated that Sakura vs Shin fight is the same dude that did that Nue Boruto bit
yeah but then you wouldn't have the disciple pupil stuff with the Sanin
even Kabuto was rejected and his all character arc was him just injecting Orochi cells instead to surpass Orochi, compared to Sasuke that was the disciple (even though Sasuke didn't really get anything other then the curse seal - now gone, the snake summon, and poison tolerance).

Some Boruto Chapter 16 spoiler pages leaked
Edit:
Naruto can do other affinities like a earth wall with ease
Makes sense since in the end of the series he got all the affinities and applied it to his Rasen Shuriken
teaching Boruto stuff
Boruto can do a water wave ability

Edit:
Naruto Also upgraded his arm via the science/tech/development department so that his fake arm can absorb certain ninjitsus like Momo
he can't expel them after though
he can't expel them after though
That makes sense then, I guess. Kind of weird that no one else has been utilizing it, but in a world where huge chakra= country Buster's I can see why.
On another note, Sakura doesn't have much chakra to begin with. I don't exactly know how much but given Kakashis comments about how much more quickly she learned to control her chakra and walk up to the top of the tree, she likely has an average amount compared to the monstrous amount of chakra reserves that Sasuke and Naruto have at their disposal.
Shit is starting to get interesting.
I can look past the art if the story is decent enough.

The thing with CES (Chakra Enhanced Strength) is that it isn't really ideal in close quarter combat, especially when you are facing off against people with taijutsu skill (like gates and gentle-fist) also people with precognitive (sharingan, sage mode, byakugan, etc...) abilities (even chakra sensing like what Karin has since Sasuke told her to help predict Killer Bees movements in that fight. Dodging is another scenario).
If you look here you see Shin (who has precog) parry Sakura at her wrist.
The reason for this is that CES brings out chakra from the hands and feet in order to cause damage/strength. A regular non clan based ninja can only bring out chakra from their hands and feet or chakra from one particular limb at one particular time, instead of it being in conjunction.
So parrying via the wrist protects the user from the CES fist since if they did fist to fist then there hand would likely shatter from the CES.
Add the fact that the Sharingan (Shin) can see chakra to some extent (not the network like the byakugan) and also has precognitive abilities and Shin would be able to parry accordingly.
This is why CES is never actually used as one of Tsunade's medical rules until you have the byakugou (or seal of 100). By having that healing factor then you can go into a slug fest with more risks and be able to do more unorthodox'd moves that would put your body in danger against the opponent.
Another thing that I find interesting is besides the gentle fist and its ability to shut down the chakra network, would the Rinnegan Preta Path be able to negate a CES impact fist or kick to the body if activate? Since CES is a chakra infused fist after all and not actual physical strength.
It would likely count if you can take a real punch still since the force of a punch is still coming at you even if you absorbed the CES.
Holy shit,
It never crossed my mind that Naruto would instruct Boruto. Thought they would be at odds the whole way. Also, if the War arc showed us anything,
its that everyone can basically do limited amounts of all the elements, like when Shika had everyone do a douton wall against the Juubi.

Animation this episode was great. Adult Saskura is such a fox.
but when it comes to chakra control, their overall reserves at that point don't matter because they're only working from the small pool they've kneaded to do whatever
I don't think Sasuke was ever said to have impressive chakra reserves until he was using Susanno powers. He was markedly weaker at things like the fireball jutsu at the same age of Itachi and couldn't impress his dad without a ton of work. He was amazed at what Naruto could do in the war arc.
That's because naruto didn't just rely on eye ball power ups and that's all sasuke did. Sasuke got so boring when he just started using MS all the time.

How do you guys feel about the overall direction the manga is heading?

Yeah honestly the uchihas in general got boring. Getting stronger as they get madder is as bad as Saiyans powering up just from surviving battles. It seems like kishi just flipped switches at random points giving Sasuke buffs.

I actually like the setup at the start with the flash forward and the overall premise. I think there's so much potential to go back to telling good ninja stories while developing Boruto and the rest of the cast in a cool way that doesn't get all absorbed by a war arc that lasts a thousand chapters.
I reeeeeeealllllly dislike that it's monthly. Hard to gain momentum and feel like things are really going. Every 2 weeks with the same length would be better to me.

Sarada is such a great character. I hope that pairing with Boruto is permanent. Imagine if they had offspring.

Are you related to Hiashi Hyuga?
story wise its fine and boruto learning from different teachers and making friends and hinting at new villains is all good but that art though, jesus.
Combines all the bloodlines of Kaguya. The strongest combo of all time.
I would be VERY impressed and grateful if the writer subverted expectations and did not have Sarada's eyes get any fancier than they are now. Evolving her powers on a different track. Closer to Sakura--without the medical stuff.
I honestly wanted Naruto to take part in her education, but that seems unlikely now.
