Disappointed it was mostly a recap episode, but the Konohamaru and Hanabi part more than made up for it. Thinking about it, if Konohamaru married Hanabi, Naruto would really become his big brother.

I guess this week's episode officially marks the beginning of the new arc.
You know, it's one thing that Naruto missed Boruto's birthday, but why were Hiashi and Hanabi not there either given how much they dote on him? It would have been nice to include them.

Yeah, although the anime at least has a tiny bit more concrete reason for why Naruto is so busy. Rather than just too much paperwork, he's frantically worried about investigating Kaguya and guess what Boruto bumps into. At least this one isn't impersonating people, that's the last thing they need to worry about. I just hope Konohamaru does something this time.
Funny to see Mitsuki in a party hat. I'm looking forward to the movie events but not them dialing Boruto's daddy issues up to 11. Not that Naruto's doing a great job as a father but still. |

I'm so annoyed when I see Boruto complain about his father to Sarada of all people. It's like "You've actually seen him more than once in your life. He can pick you out of a police line up and everything. Quit your belly aching."

Yeah, Sarada is in the perfect position to tell Boruto to stop his whining, but she doesn't say anything besides "the hokage is busy, try to understand". You know, stuff he's heard a million times before.

It's a little different for Sarada, though. Her default level of expectation is, "I effectively have no father," but after a brief rebellious stage she came to accept the necessity of Sasuke's situation, so anytime he's there for her it's an example of him going above and beyond and she appreciates it. For better or for worse, Boruto got to grow up with Naruto there at least some of the time and thus got to experience the gradual decline of his presence over time. Both Sarada and Mitsuki's family situations are significantly more fucked up than Boruto's, but they've never experienced anything else so they may actually be quite ill-equipped to sympathize or offer emotional support.

Older Genin doesn't resent Team 7 for being children of the most powerful Shinobi but rather all of them being prodigies were put n the same team. The new InoShikaCho are acknowledged as prodigies by their teachers but putting those three together is tradition.
As for Naruto not being home he should really make his office and home the same place. In the real world this is done so that not only a leader of a country can spend time with his or her family but to protect them from security threats. Naruto just too damn lax believing he can give his family a suburban life. The only reason Sakura and Sarada doesn't live at the Uchiha estate is because it is outside of where people are. I guess Tobi didn't use Kaguya's entire stockpile of White Zetsu as even he didn't know where all of them are. |

At least the anime seems to be trying to provide a better reason as to why Naruto can't attend the party. It's still a bit iffy and won't exactly make Boruto's daddy issues easier to sit through, but there's an effort there.

Finally, more Konohamaru action. Also, next episode is the actual first chapter of the manga! The new opening seems a bit lazy considering I think Sage Mode of the Six Paths Naruto was directly taken from the movie. I hope they improve the opening or something or the other assistant of Momoshiki

Yeah, the new op seems a bit weak, song and animation wise. The ending is a bit better, though I don't find it as catchy as the last one (the group scenes were cute though). And both are focused on the upcoming movie events of course.
Nice to see Konohamaru win the fight. Not looking forward to a couple of months of extra annoying Boruto, starting with that reckless stunt he pulled (I thought he would've been scolded more for that). Anyway, next time the movie officially starts, I'm looking forward to what changes (improvements?) they might add. |

Naruto, Sasuke and Shikamaru will get new light novels but as their Boruto/adult forms
