I loved this episode.

Unlike a lot of other people, I think the show's pace makes sense. People are being unrealistic in expecting Boruto to just suddenly grow up and develop into a great Ninja. Naruto took a long as time to develop as well and quite frankly didn't do so until the Pain Arc and the Ninja war. If Boruto's story were to follow Naruto's people would complain that it's the same thing. I think the way of telling Boruto's story is realistic. It's a new era, things change as do people. Boruto is very relatable in my opinion, people are just so desperate for action is all.

Anyway, if this episode is an indication of how they are going to put those gaidens and the manga plot into the episode, I think it will be fine. I love how even though they repeated the OVA, they did it masterfully by letting us see what wasn't really originally shown in the ova. They did it masterfully so it didn't feel too much like a repeat.

I love how Boruto is a cooler version of Naruto but the aspects are still there. He's so adorable, lol
