I was busy this week.
Episode 9: Proof of Oneself. Continuing talks about Bolt's Tensiegan. IE an actual plot.
Starts off from last time with creepy grampus challenging Bolt to see if they can activate that eye he claims to have. Bolt apparently refuses to fight for some reason. Hanabi says that bolt doesn't want to fight his gramps for some reason and decides that he should fight her instead.
So bolt is thrown around like a rag doll because he slacks off on his training,despite him being the top in his class. So he perfect without even trying. So interesting. Wow the daughter's voice sound weird -haven't bothered to listen to it before hand normally skipped when she started to talk-. Like a middle age woman who suppose to sound like a little girl and failing. Also she has a lazy eye apparently. So Bolt start off with the shadow clones...with Naruto watching...Why was he shocked that he could used those when he was a 12-13 year old genin in the chunin? When he can apparently used them now when he is like 6-8 starting out in the academy? Great he still has that mask. Oh Christ is he going to go off about his eye again? Oh wait it was a flash-bang...wait his clones attack right after but they weren't wearing sunglasses shouldn't they be affected as well? Wait one of the one that attacked instantly after the flashbang was him?
She taunts him and he has a flashback to toneri's speech. He doesn't activate it because of course it only activates when he see that evil aura, except that one time after his dream of toneri. So he loses. He get mopey and a wish I had a speed up option on this player. They have a meal afterwards where Hanabi act like a creepy overly affectionate aunt. Her specialty is meat and potatoes. Hinata's potatoes are apparently better then Hanabi who gets offended by that comment. So Naruto and Hazashi go off and have a private tea ceremony at night. they talk about how Naruto originally thought Bolt was lying about awakening that Byakugan to get his attention, until he saw that fight with hanabi. Then he comments that "things some too easily for boruto... He's so good at things that he tends to take short cuts." Good Naruto so subdue now a days.
Oh now Bolt and Hanabi have a talk as well. After that he goes off and looks at the poster of that guy from the movie. Oh Salad appears and they have a talk. They are fairly generic I'm pretty sure all of you can guess what they are talking about. Oh his eye activates because the actor is under a lot of stress and is now possessed. Also he really fat and Bolt make jokes about if he's kagemasa or not. Turns out they cancelled the sequel because he been putting on too much weight and they don't believe he will loses if before they start filming...if you couldn't already guess that. Oh Salad finally comes to help after a few minute right before Bolt is impaled to save him. This is the first time she is actually involved with the plot. It took 9 episodes for the most popular and well liked character of this generation to finally be able to join the main plot instead of just being a side character. Even the clone was involved when her stalker's possession happened, I assume -I skipped that episodes and have no regrets about that-. So they beat him up and it dispels that aura, and the guy decides to go on a weight lost program so he can do the sequel.
I been wondering this I know bolt that only one that can see the aura, but why is it that only he can stop them? All it takes to remove that aura is to beat the guy up to return him to normal. Bolt not doing anything special other then pointing out someone is possessed.
Episode Ten: The Ghost Incident. The Investigation Begins! Pretty sure this is another generic filler episode.
So Bolt is trying to find people that are possessed so he can learn how to active his eye. He calls his eye, 'the star of hope.' They decided to start calling the aura, "ghosts." Now that Naruto is investigating these incidents, Bolt now determine to figure it out before him. He also got dry eyes from staring too long with out blinking.
God Cups just exist to prop up Bolt with praise...Oh Wait! That is exact why he exist! Bolt makes that comment about his mother being scary again. Oh they been skipping class in order to investigate. Oh they actually due try to make Hinata behave like a standard shounen mom when she is demure normally but terrifying when provoked. So Hinata goes to Shino to have a talk about Bolt skipping class. Turns out he decided to let a shadow clone go to that meeting...If Hinata is so scary that Bolt never wants to anger her? Why would he send a shadow clone to a meeting she is dragging him to and then bail after making a statement trying to act badass? Won't that make her angrier? If Hinata does not get angry at bolt when he gets home, she fails at making the standards for the shouen mother. Hell most shounen mother would start chasing down their child after shouting his name if another shounen hero did this. Doubt that will happen. Oh Temari slapped Shika. Apparently Hinata is mild compared to her, though we are still suppose to believe that Hinata is this terrifying badass mother. She can't even control her kid when she is punishing him or dragging him to a teacher meeting.
So these 6 year olds are going to learn workplace experience. Well Blond Sai & Rockten, and Train Boy & Repeater are going to be those two guy group from now on since the main cast is now Shika Cups and Bolt. Why are they talking about a fire works factory, a nail salon and such aren't they training to be ninjas? So shino want to convince Bolt into working at the Hokage's office. When he has no respect for his father and think the hokage office is a miserable place to be, apparently no adult listen to a word he says just like I wish I could do. They go to the post office instead.
They met Mr. Nice Mail Guy that probably going to be possessed this episode, or Mr. NMGTPGTBPTE. Bolt acts like a jack ass. They make deliveries and Bolt see Naruto doing a ribbon cutting event. So Naruto see Bolt and decides to go up and talk to him. Bolt acts like a too cool for school brat. Naruto praises him taking a interest in mail delivery and makes a comment that probably comes from that Mail Ninja filler. When he leaves it triggers Bolt and he wants to get done with the mail quickly. Which is against the nice mail guy policy of delivering them one at a time and enjoying peoples' smiles when they receive their mail. They deliver them so quickly at some times that don't even enter the mail box. This is probably going to make people complain and mister nice mail man is going to get fired, then possessed.
Oh Sai is investigating a possession in the park. He really looks like Cups's father. Oh so the aura drains a person chakra if you don't knock them out. Wait? Has it only been a week since the start of this series!? Oh the First's cells are involved now. Oh their are pictures of all the hokages not just the first three. So now ROOTS is now somehow involved in this. Sarcasm:What is the demon actually Danzo returned from the grave?
So the Fat Filler's Limited Edition Potato Chips (sigh) were suppose to be delivered but Bolt kittened up. so they are sent do make stamps instead for their work day. Oh great the clone got kidnapped. Oh she got Badly beaten up.
Episode 11: The Shadow of the Mastermind. This is the one Sakura finally appears in right?
Oh no opening bit. Hospital with the clone in bed but awake. Oh Naruto saved them -the clone and her two generic girl friends-.Bolt rushes in concerned about the clone. The clone has only two expressions neutral and freaking out. Bolt feels guilt about what happened,and Salad drags him out of the room. Oh Naruto is pissed. Yes pull him by the ear drag him away and give him a spanking. And there is Sakura treating the Mail guy that had all his chakra drain (guessing). Naruto point out that this investigation is not kids game, which pisses Bolt off. Shino comes to Bolts defense. Sakura is just a background character to show us that an important medical ninja is treating the victim to show the audience and bolt how dangerous the possession is. So because Shino came to their defense they decided to take the mail delivery job seriously. Oh the uptight boss is letting them do deliveries again, what a nice man, because the nice mail guy fixed their mistakes and begged him to give them another chance. Bolt gets into an argument with his lazy clones when he came up with the plan to use them to help deliver the mail...or something I wasn't paying attention.
Another ghost appears and Sai investigates again. Wait I just remembered this. Didn't Naruto when he had the kurama's chakra able to make trees grow in wood. So this couldn't just be the first cells but the a spirit with yin or yang chakra as well. Bolt complains about the possession trying to avoid them and Shika thinks he is right. So to cover more ground to try catching the possession before they turn fatal Shika calls in their friends. well except for Salad, the clone, and her friends. They also got fireworks so if they find a possession they can alert the others. Oh they also drag in the mail men for some reason...and the boss is going to be possessed. Oh ROOTS is behind this. For the first time we see a guy in a creepy horned anbu mask pass by right before the evil tentacle possesses the boss. Oh that was the plan. Because the double back to catch the guy. The guy runs and Cups lets him go to make him appear mysterious to us despite the audience already knowing his entire backstory. That seal is almost complete so it won't be soon before that spirit is finally released. Oh it a Nue.
