You can't compare Naruto and Boruto animes. The Naruto anime has more filler than canon episodes and didn't even adapt all the canon material or did it lazily wrong, while the Boruto anime ties in with and complements the manga. I'm quite sure that events left out of the anime novelization are filler content.
