The show isn't half as bad as you all think it is. Or do you guys just hate it because it doesn't show Naruto more than he should while sitting as a Hokage?

I expect big stuff coming from Boruto. It only started, and we know certain parts can get boring. A few chapters ahead and we'll atleast figure out the element of the plot running right now.

From what I can say, what the show lacks, is a cool enough rival for Boruto, a threat that makes all of his loved ones in a panic(that will spon be checked out), and a serious goal(I'm pretty sure Boruto will get his goal)

And this show is a sequel of Naruto, so everything trash about it(that you all think of), will be the same for Naruto, since it's a part of it.

Seriously, though, the anime makes situations that the manga had, with more hype, like look at the Shin vs Sakura/Sasuke/Naruto battle. It was more intense and awesome than the manga, so wait for the anime to reach the manga's actual point, and I'll say that it'll be as intense or more than it ever was, especially with the upcoming chunnin exams.

How am I suppose to feel for Sarada with her daddy issues when I already know Naruto that was orphaned the day he was born and Hinata who was short of being disowned by her father? How am I suppose to care about Metal when Rock Lee had it hundred times worse?

Maybe things will change, maybe kids will stop being kids at one point, maybe there is development for them waiting around the corner. After all, Naruto has 700 chapters, Boruto 22 so far. But as it is now, I only see kids playing ninjas because they have nothing better to do. Well that was the point of Boruto, or atleast it's beginning. The world the past generation thrived to make, a world where children don't need to worry about conflict, dangers, death, and emotionally mind damaging past for them. Basically a world where everyone is safe and sound, happy as ever, with magical abilities that make them cool.

And the tragic point of all of it would be that it all will come to an end, soon enough. We seen it ourselves. Konoha is destroyed, Boruto seems to have a scar from some serious battle and Naruto is seeminly said to be dead. So, yeah. What's gonna be more tragic? People with truely emotional past behind them? Or people who had everything, friends, family, happiness, be destroyed one by one or by a big blast or something. I'll bet it'll be heart breaking, since almost all the characters in Boruto that are said to have no definite connection to the fans, has old characters as loved ones/family who have deep connection with fans. So, these characters losing their loved ones(that is, the old characters, will be heart breaking)

People seem to hate the godsutsuki, excuses for them not to be there (like Nue), but also a levelling of the playing field (every "boruto is OP" topic ever), or other means of giving power without insane power creep (like ninja tech). Either the series bends over backwards to deal with two gods in a world of ninja, or it removes the problem and returns to being a ninja story.

I also do not believe that people will accept nerfs, like Sasuke's eyes being poked out. Naruto most likely is the Sarutobi of the series and Sasuke the Jiraya of it. Both Naruto and Sasuke are too strong and superior in every feild of shinobi, that even if the akatsuki was alive and healthy, they could do nothing, even together. So hif the series wants to play fair to the villains, they must send level out the two guys that are stronger than the whole shinobi allience together. How they're gonna do it, is a question. Maybe a ineviteble sacrifice to save the young ones/new generation or fighting someone as OP as them, like some new Otutsuki. It can be anything. And most likely they're gonna use Sasuke and Naruto at their close to exhausted point for that(that is, if the villain isn't OP)

But there's also another way of dealing with that, since the wide use of dimensions in this series, it most likely seems they could send these two or anyone of them(to make the other search for them) to another dimension, where they get trapped(I believe this isn't a first time for them), thus almost everyone in the series(maybe even the fans) will think they are gone for real. And then be cheered up with their arrival at some very serious point(like the fourth Shinobi war, or in this case, a fifth shinobi war) Well that's all I have to say.

At least that's my opinion Naruto surpassed Minato, even then, Minato was pretty strong and unique with his FTG. So in the Naruto universe, surpassing is more or less, becoming a greater ninja(in the ethical way), being a stronger ninja(by either talent in a feild or having various more talents in alot of feilds, or just being stronger, faster and smarter or having learned a stronger jutsu or knowing how to do it better, or more earlier)

Well this is all just my own honest opinion. kinda agreed with BlazeRelease, why bother complaining about the Boruto series with negative opinions
