I mean... New Otsutsuki stuff? Great.... Kara? Great.... all the 'new' stuff is interesting enough, but it doesn't have the Naruto quality and feeling. Say the missions:
 * Naruto missions, interesting and immersive, Boruto missions kid stuff
 * Naruto Chunin exams great, Boruto Chunin exams, filler 'quality' almost
 * Naruto can actually be serious and give you dem feelings, Boruto only tries to be but fails miserably...

There is just no feeling of dread in Boruto, like there are no stakes and even if there are, it just all happy ending and there are no casualties or consequences. In Naruto, good guys and gals die = we feel immersed in the story, we are attached to the characters and so we are sad... in Boruto IF someone dies, I don't think anyone has so far, or if someone has, it wasn't worth memorizing because it didn't strike any emotions in us and it was of no consequence... but IF someone in Boruto dies, it will feel like 'death' in a show like Family Guy or Simpsons, because of the poorly structured pacing and characterization, we won't give a ****
