There can be slight differences in interpretation, but in all three cases it's Boruto retelling/reminiscing the story, so it's not that contradictions can't be overcome. Even though I'm somewhat enjoying this arc, I just want the anime to get to the side-stories. My main gripe with this arc is its emphasis on characters that never appeared in Gaiden, the movie, and the manga. Why did SP add those characters? What is the point, when they have enough characters to work with? The arc already contradict canon. They could of started the anime another way
