Katasuke literally tricked Boruto into using the device, and made sure he to go into the Chunin Exams, despite not wanting to at all, which ultimately resulted in him testing out the device so that they could come out and say "Boruto only made it this far because of ninja technology" whilst Naruto told them it was banned, who later punished Boruto on live TV -- In front of everyone. Not to mention he reprimanded his headband and said he was no longer a Ninja.

That kind of shame doesn't just disappear. Boruto has every right to whine and be angry at Katasuke, especially since he doesn't know that he was being manipulated too.

The development in this chapter for Boruto to get over his issues with the technology with Ao was a nice contrast. I find Boruto to be kind of childish and immature at times with his yelling, and I think it's because of how the artist draws facial reactions, more so than the actual complaining itself.

But it was nice to see Boruto get over his issues twice, one when Mitsuki confronted him and Boruto said he was being lame and agreed, and second when Ao referenced that technology saved his life, to which brought Boruto to not see things as "good or bad".

I do find Sarada to be annoying towards Boruto too, she kind of feels like she's trying to play that overly protective but really cares about Boruto role, but it's not working.
