Episode 20: "The Boy with the Sharingan." So this is the episode that will have "the true meaning of a bento" in it right? SO they will try and soften nH this week by either giving Bolt a flashback of Hinata or have Naruto make comments or think of Hinata which he didn't in the original manga. Along with the general softening of SS.

 

It starts with Sasuke wandering around in a forest about to be attack by celebii. Wow his hair looks generic. He sees celebii has the sharigan and his clan symbol before the boy disappears.

 

OK onto Salad. Who is running around the village while have a flashback to last episode. Apparently they think audience will forget what happened a week ago and need to be remind of what happen. Why does every character have such flat expressionless faces?

 

Opening.

 

OK to the Hokage office where Naruto will get Sasuke's messenger bird since he doesn't have a cell phone. Oh wait now he has a cell phone but most of the time he in places he can't charge it... doesn't he have lighting chakra? So they call Kakashi who's scar now constantly changes position where it is on his eye now apparently -its hard not to notice even for me-. Now Shin talking to his celebii clone. So salad comes to the door just when after calling Kakashi when he mentions he plans on meeting up with Sasuke. In the original their was some conflict in this since the graduation exams where in a few days and if Naruto goes he might miss it which would upset bolt. But that was moved back so that was dropped. Actually *looking at the gaiden* Shizune was actually there as well who was the one that brought up the exams. Well she is a woman. So I guess they didn't think a woman was good enough to be one of Bolt's father's advisers.

 

Now they have added Salad getting her bag from the hospital with dramatic music playing. She looks at her mother. Oh they just gave her the outfit she wore in the gaiden therefor the outfit she was wearing before yahagi made up his new outfits. Oh great fat filler is coming along still oh right she brought along chips since that is part of her  joke, and the whole looking for real father bit. Wait why is he telling Shikamaru to tell Bolt he is sorry the exams aren't till next week or is he intentionally hoping to leave before he get their with the bento? Well without the exams it must be the latter. So he is intentionally leaving before his son can deliver his wife's cooking? *laughs* So Naruto leaves and Salad drag along fat filler, but fat filler wasn't expecting that so she trips them both. Salad ask if she alright while looking incredibly angry. Most of this is from the gaiden. Salad decides to use the bento as an excuses to chase after Naruto and ask bolt for it. He plans on returning it to his mother. They added that she always make lunches for him instead of he knew that bolt was coming with the bento from the gaiden. They also drop him saying it not like he was coming here on purpose, and instead he says always again implying she always makes Naruto lunch. yet all we have ever seen in his office is Ramen cups and booze. Fat filler comes in to be comic relief by saying she will eat it and when Cups pulls her away she thinks he is asking her out. Salad talks about "the importance of a bento." oh it's only an image but they change if from Hinata looking "sad(?)" to her actually making the bento. The little ten tail then see Salad, and shin sends celebii after them. They actually hide his eye. Why?

 

So fat filler can't run, and celebii attacks.Huh? Salad says only she and her father are the only uhicha left. In the manga she mentions her mother told her only Sasuke was left. Can I just avoid talking about fat filler? Unlike the manga Naruto just appears instead of trying to out run them so he won't have to eat his wife's cooking. So Kurama fights the celebii while Naruto just stand there. Oh! Now they reveal shin's sharingan! Fat filler. Oh the best and only good part of the entire story starts; Naruto and Salad interacting. So far not as good as it was in the manga. OK they added in Naruto calling the food delicious and Salad saying he should thank Bolt. Naruto talks about Sasuke.

 

It ends with Sasuke pulling out his sword on Salad.

At the very least, they didn't make the flashback to the team 7 moment, a flashback of the lovely Hina-sama making a Bento for "Boruto's Dad" , they surprised me favorably there.

Hey, I want your opinion on something guys, what do you think of the fact that Naruto still calls Sakura with the -chan honorific, I mean, I don't think they are even shown to be friends anymore , it's kinda weird for me, I guess.


“There are many types of monsters in this world, monsters who will not show themselves and who cause trouble. Monsters who abduct children, monsters who devour dreams, monsters who suck blood, and, monsters who always tell lies. Lying monsters are a real nuisance, they are much more cunning than other monsters. They pose as humans, even though they have no understanding of the human heart. They eat, even though they've never experienced hunger. They study even though the have no interest in academics. They seek friendship even though they do not know how to love. If I were to encounter such a monster, I would likely be eaten by it, because in truth, I am that monster.”   -L. Lawliet

No they had the team 7 flash back it was in the manga as well so I didn't feel like mentioning it.

In the Gaiden manga, it's between looking sad and a poker face. Something like that.

Corrections/Additions as usual:

 

On using Lightning Chakra to charge items: Considering Sasuke is traveling between dimensions, gone for days, would he even reach them? This is of course, not even touching the notion of lightning chakra, because charging doesn't work that way. That's how you fry things.

 

2: There's no evidence to suggest that it simply wasn't good enough for Shizune to not be one of Naruto's advisers. 

 

3: Yes, Naruto left early, he could only wait so long. 

 

4: Your implications about Naruto's lunch habits are also not supported.

 

5: They hide Shin's eyes to keep the villain partially wrapped in mystery. 

1. The episode said 80% of the time he was in area where there wasn't anywhere to charge not that he was in an area with no signal or even in another dimensions.

 

2. Well Tsunade wasn't good enough to be the Hokage in the last which was written by the anime staff. Why would one of apprentices be worthy enough to be an adviser for Hinata's husband?

 

3. People have been complaining for years now that Naruto's desk is covered with nothing but empty liquor bottles and ramen cups. Naruto left knowing that Bolt was coming with the bento. Bolt's rant heavily implied that Hinata always makes food for Naruto and he never eats it. Except this time because it was given to him by Sasuke's daughter.

 

4. Then they revealed almost immoderately afterwards making the mystery the same as cup's. Pointless.

1: Yes, I added that bit, but in regards to the episdoe itself, that's not what lightning style/chakra necessarily can do, just because it's lightning. Considering the types of attacks, as I said, it would fry the item.

 

2: Tsunade was shown stepping down in chapter 699, before we even saw the Last, a decision by Kishimoto. Considering he supervised the script, and that we see her taking the responsibility of getting people into shelters, the problem had zero to do with strength. It's also silly to turn this into a social issue of sexism, considering that Sarada is the protagonist. It's better to leave conspiracy spinning out the door.

 

3: Naruto's Desk is not consistently covered with these things, in this episode it was notably vacant of both of these things. Boruto's rant did not imply at all that Naruto receives lunches from Hinata and never eats them. This wasn't even said.

 

4 actually (5): It's an effect, though yes, you can have this opinion of pointless.  

1. Using electric powers to power devices is so common in stories now a days it no longer creative. Sasuke's kirin was made out of natural lightning was stated to be far strong then something he could make with just his chakra. Also he could in 15 years just by a charger create a spark in his hand and see if it charges him phone? What he can't control his power to that extent? ...Why does Naruto know down to a percentage how much time Sasuke spends in places where he can't charge is phone?

 

2. The promo for the movie were showing Kakashi as hokage long before Obito told him to go for it. The last wasn't made in one month, and kishimoto let them do pretty much what ever they wanted since originally it wasn't going to be canon. When it was decided that the last was going to be canon suddenly Kakashi needed to become hokage. Despite one of the major reason Tsunade became hokage in universe and out was that she was planning on holding it until she though Naruto was ready. Salad isn't the protagonist of Boruto she the love interest, and we seen how love interest are treated in the franchise already. If you don't recall they already tired replacing her with the clone.

 

3. We have never seen the desk not covered by something. In the episode again Naruto leave despite knowing Bolt was bringing that lunch. then Bolt's rant was how he was going to chew out his mother on how pointless it was to make lunch for him. He say she always makes them. Then says always again in a tone that says Naruto doesn't eat them.

 

4. Did you read the entire summary? They reveal in the same episode that they first tired to hide it just minute earlier. That's pointless.

1: So not having him be able to do it is fine, really, sets up a limitation. 

 

2: The Second isn't really true, Kishimoto had creative power over the movie, even though he didn't write it. He had more  say than in RTN, and his say grew in Boruto as he wrote the script.

 

3: I'll re-watch later, but we can't interpret tone that way. 

 

4: I did, I watched the episode, mind. It's a build up of gradually showing the Villain. It's fine, though it's also fine not to like it, as you do. Not trying to take that away from you. 

1. Me Why doesn't Sasuke use his lighting chakra to charge his phone?

 

Analyzer: He too strong his lighting would instantly destory the device.

 

Me: Points out that it is commonly use in other story to the point of banality. Points out Sasuke strength is weaker then natural lighting on his own so he wouldn't overpower it. Even then shouldn't he have enough skill to control it?

 

Analyzer: Well then he is too weak to it then.

 

Me: People with far weaker lighting abilities have been able to do it. Why not he?

 

Analyzer:

 

2. In interviews kishimoto has said he basically let them do what ever they wanted because they were so enthusiastic about the movie. He was involved in Road of the ninja because as he said it allowed him to do the stories he wasn't allowed to do in the manga. He wrote the Boruto movie.
