Can we all this say it the way it is?
Burrito is a cash grab, yes, but more importantly it's a parody. It's not something to be taken seriously since not even the people making it can't take it seriously. It's not like the Rock Lee adventures which was comedy, it's just a let's make fun of certain things because we can sort of situation and not bother with logic or sense. Copy-paste something from what came before, take a stab at it and move on and then repeat.
I honestly don't know the proper words to describe it, but I think you'll get where I'm getting at.
Knockoff, the word you of are thinking of is knockoff.
Sorry 
I guess I would be the villain of this site if I said I rather enjoy Boruto? LOL.
However, I think Sarada is an interesting character. She has more depth than Boruto and seems to be a more realistic person than Sakura. Tbh, I loved the moment she doubted Sakura and Sasuke's relationship. It felt as if the creators agreed with it being strange, but it didn't last for long, though.
Salad has potential (more then the rest of the cast) the problem is she is the heroine of Boruto, the sequel to Naruto. So she has the legacy of her mother; a heroine that was abandon & replaced due to perceived unpopularity.
In the manga they don't want this to happen again so they made her the anti-Sakura. Every complaint fans had about Sakura, Salad shows she doesn't have that: Sakura seen as weak/ have Salad as a competent fighter from the start, seen as unattractive/have her dress in a very provocative outfit so she can come off as sexy from the beginning, her hitting the main character seen as negative instead of comedy/well she is still a tsudere but sticks to berating him instead, unclear feeling about main character/clear from the end of the first arc, team 7 love triangle/Cups is trying to push them together, and so on all to make sure they don't have the same problem that happened with Naruto.
But thing is SP wants that to happen again so they can put another one of their fantasy dream girls in the role of heroine. That was clear with the focus on Sumire the clone in the first arc.
The anime softened a lot of the gaiden turn the question of "is Karin Salad's mother" from still as strong possibility in the gaiden to unlikely to laughable in the anime adaptation.
Yeah, I mean we do have some NH fans on this forum, but we don't crucify them for having a differing opinion.
Sarada is the only attractive aspect of Boruto who has the potential to becoe an interesting character and we know that she's going to be undermined just like her mother because of recent developments and established precedence. Hell, they already seem to have the Hinata clone prepped to take her place as the heroine of Boruto.
I honestly think that they were planning on her taking Salad place after the end of the first arc, but it was so obvious that even the three clowns realized it and put their foot down. They still have to deal with that stupid eye though.
I get what you mean. Worshipping Hinata and Boruto is not tolerated.

NO worries, I am an NS fan! 
But that doesn't mean I cannot try to look at the positive aspects of everything that happened after our ship went down. I just try to be as neutral as possible about the Boruto series. At first, I disliked it much, everything about it and especially the names of the children lol. But I gave it a chance and actually grew fond of it. (seeing everyone as an adult, Shino becoming a more important character, Sakura being OP)
I think this is a Boruto discussion thread, not a Boruto - bash thread, am I wrong? 
I am the person the is doing the summaries of the manga chapters, and was doing the summaries of the anime on this site. As negative as my tone may come out in those summaries I was at one point giving them a chance. The manga lost any chances of winning me over after that ten months of rehashing a movie, then 5 months prologue. As for the anime I go tired of the clear manipulation.
...I normally am not one to dash someone hopes but you shouldn't get your hopes up of them showing off Sakura too much. The gaiden adaptation may be a one time deal of any real focus on Sakura in Boruto.
