Board Thread:Boruto: Naruto the Movie/@comment-26866422-20150828200400/@comment-26883387-20150913205622

Hmm, in the movie it was implied that the jutsu stored in the Kote wasn't his own though. For instance, the full sized Rasengan he showed Sasuke with the help of Kote was clearly not his own. He simply could not make a Rasengan of that size at that point.

And at the end of the movie the scientist (who made the Kote) tried to seize the glory by firing a whole bunch of jutsu of various type. If being able to manipulate the nature is a requirement, then that scientist is quite a monster that only lacks chakra.

Well, I haven't read the novel, and assuming it is canon, Boruto may well be able to use multiple nature manipulations. That is definitely impressive, but I wonder how good he is at any of them. In the movie, his most impressive feat remains that mini vanishing Rasengan and without the Kote, he couldn't do any big jutsu. There was at least one ninja in the Chunin exam who could make more clones than he could, and Shadow Clone is one of his best jutsu. Right now I feel like he'll be a jack of all trade, master of none (of course it is still the early days).
