BARUTO THREAD 1.0: The next generation

So next is Sakura and dildo-kun ?

Pretty sure it’s what Boruto used just enhanced. That’s what Naruto said, anyway.

Basically his arm has the path of pein that nullifies jutsu. It would be different if he could release it but being able to completely nullify any jutsu is busted. Which means you would have to fight Hokage Naruto using taijutsu alone. Can’t wait to see all the scummy “death battle” channels explain this shit when Naruto is selected to fight.

“Kamehameha uses chi which is the same as chakra in nature,thus Naruto was able to beat goku because his regeneration abilities combined with ssj depleting made him outlast Goku”

Is this like the dragon Ball super of Naruto?

i greatly enjoyed the shin uchiha mini arc animated.

Boruto is easily more skilled than Naruto was at that age. I wonder if it is because he actually HAS his parents.

Yeah, the anime is showing him to be amazing already. He’s using wind, water, and lightning. Naruto couldn’t even use wind proper until he was nearly a man. Even then, just one technique.

Pretty much lol.

It all comes down to training. No one really taught Naruto how to use his power, they just shunned him. He also had a major issue controlling his chakra for a very long time.

Not only does Boruto not have those limitations, he has everything that made Naruto broken plus more… AND Sasuke as a mentor. Shit isn’t fair at all on paper.

So, did you ignore Jiraya, Kakashi, and the wood dude training him?

Dont forget about the frogs and killer bee…

I believe he means that, at the point where Boruto is now, nobody was really training him outside of Iruka. Naruto at that age was more of an outcast who was pulling pranks to get attention. Boruto on the other hand is more or less the class clown, he’s still a prankster like his dad, but he has more support around him.

If you think about it, no one in Team Konohamaru is a complete generation Xerox of their predecessor (especially compared to the supporting cast). Yeah, Mitsuki is pretty obvious, but Boruto and Sarada are somewhat mix and match from their parents. Boruto’s situation is closer to Sasuke’s, and both have this need to be acknowledged by their fathers (albeit they’re responding to that need differently). Sarada feels some sort of alienation due to family issues related to their past with Konoha, similar to Naruto (though in her case, it’s Sasuke trying to atone for his past). It’s also this alienation that eventually leads them to wanting to become Hokage.

I mean Boruto from a technical standpoint would destroy Naruto at that same age. He can use e elements and knows clones. He isn’t even a FUCKING GENIN. Naruto basically got by on just out stamina’ing you after he learned clones for a while. Boruto is bodying experienced genin as an academy student. Nigga was getting choked out made a sign and he blows dude back with his wind nature. That shit is retarded when you look at where their parents were at that age.

I think it’s silly. They made him way stronger without the journey. The journey is what made everyone fall in love with the Naruto story. As is, he’s just some overpowered famous kid who was apparently born knowing how to do shinobi shit.

would be much better watching him train under Sasuke imo.

That’s why they showed what happens to him and Konoha in the future. What we’re waiting for is to see how the hell things ended up that way.

In the latest anime he was also using what looked like his mums style gentle palm techniques…

We knew for a while he knew gentle fist. Hell it looked like shikadai knew it to as I seen him palm someone. This generation though is unbelievably further than the old. I don’t think any of the last generation could beat this current generation in their academy days. Like their is no reason for the new generation to not surpass Narutos. Like seriously. Can’t wait til shikidai gets a fan and starts wind slicing shadow techniques and shit. I mean this shit is laughably funny.

Boruto out here using wind element to boost his speed and charging shuriken with lightning nature. Makes me mad Naruto never used his elements in this way. Glad to see Boruto on some prodigy shit. It helps separate him from his father in that he is the “SKILLED” version of Naruto.

Naruto’s tailed beast always threw off his chakra control so it took him longer to learn.

What threw his chakra control off was Orochimaru’s seal (the one Jiraiya undid), not the nine tails itself.

But I felt like Naruto’s journey of learning new techniques was always teachers/mentors playing to his strengths. At the time he only knew how to use rasengans and shadow clones, so every thing he learned was about augmenting the strengths of his core techniques instead of learning anything particularly new. And besides he was always in danger for most of Part 2, so he never had the time to properly learn anything new from the get-go (let alone pass the chunnin exams).

But during the war he mastered charkra control so well and gained experience using different elements by working with the tailed beasts, so it wouldn’t be illogical for him to learn formally after the war and master other skills. His war experience gave him a better jumping/reference point than he would’ve had in the first place at the start of Part 2, so a Naruto finally becoming a chunnin and actually studying his way up the ranks to become hokage just makes sense.

It would be stupid as hell for Naruto to be hokage and only know shadow clones and rasengan. Like yeah he would still use those techniques as a preference, but him being able to be strategic and use other moves in his arsenal should be an essential thing.

Giving Boruto lightning release is genius. Not only does is it a play on Boruto’s name (Bolt), but it also because lightning release was mostly Kakashi and Sasuke’s thing early on (he even calls one of the attacks “Uchiha style shuriken jutsu”). Combining it with Wind Release however shows the progress that’s been made in the new era as shinobi, and trainees start experimenting with stuff in this age of peace.
