@@doctor99267 yes, they both can. Mitsuki uses it in chapter 21 and Boruto volume 1 states it is officially one of Boruto's jutsus. Also, the Sasuke's Story Star Pupil novel states that Boruto can use Raiton: Shiden.
Gaara and Shinki prove that it’s possible to have a father son connection despite being the kage of his village, and Shinki isn’t even his own son. So I do feel a bit bad for Boruto that Naruto was never willing to train him.
After rewatching Naruto repeatedly I have come to realize something quite important...Naruto never wanted a family he wanted to be Hokage...so he would have respect and acknowledgment. Throughout the whole series his goals/ambitions/ thoughts all were to get his Sasuke back and become Hokage, not "I want more friends," "I need a girl," and "I want to have unconditional love." There was no "I'm going to be a better dad" moment that I can recall. *This is not an excuse for him dropping the ball/ having no interest in his family.
Bro what 😂 Obviously when you’re a kid you say “ I want to be an astronaut” not “ I will give my children the unconditional love I didn’t receive as a kid”. But Naruto did initially blame his dad for not being there for him and it was a reoccurring theme of him watching other people leave with their parents and being sad that he does not have parents. It got to the point where there were full scenes showcasing how much he appreciated Jiraiya and Iruka as father figures. I get what you’re saying, but the argument that he mentioned being hokage as a kid doesn’t really hold up.
i think its less of naruto never having parents so he would smother his kids they way he wasn't but more of naruto never had parents and doesn't know how a parent should really treat their child so he doesn't know the correct way to go about his work and kids balance
Honestly I see naruto's screw up as it being the result of how he lived as a child. Everyone avoided him when he was a kid, and I feel like he basically didn't learn some social skills because of it, and he grew used to being alone, so he assumes boruto would get used to it as well, and so he never realises how much he's screwing up
Naruto is a literal demi god reincarnation. The only other human being he can relate to is sasuke, who is also a demi god reincarnation. His child hood has nothing to do with it. The lore of naruto is so absurd that hes not even really human. Also from the moment he was 6 yeras old he wanted to be president and achieved it. At no point did he dream about having kids or a family. Hes busy running shit as a demi god, he doesnt have time to help you blow out birthday candles when hes fighting off an alien invasion of ninjas from the moon.
@@nullakjg767 oh he never even thought about having a family? Like he never for example ran after sakura? Are you also implying that naruto considers himself above everyone else? Also what demigods was he fighting in himawari's birthday? The demigods of A4 paper? In the great god war of signing petitions?
@@Fistrike He wanted to hook up with sakura, not start a family with her. Sasuke married her and has to repopulate his clan and he refuses to have more kids with her. Naruto is above everyone else, hes literally a reincarnation of a demi god. ANd so is sasuke. Himiwari is lucky she exists. Naruto shouldnt even be letting hinata raise his children, she should be on missions for the villiage and himiwari should already be in training to also be a ninja. Even hanabi was kicking ass by her age. You cant have a slice of life with ninjas. Especially the strongest ninjas in the world who are responsible for keeping aliens at bay. If the show wont take its own premise seriously, theres no reason to take their family drama seriously.
@@nullakjg767 damn ninjas really are just tools on your point of view... did you get stuck on haku? That almost sounds like applying eugenics to the naruto world. Also did naruto even know about more otsutsuki coming to earth before himawari's birthday? Pretty sure they only start learning about it when sasuke tells him about it after investigating the otsutsuki temple, so that idea doesn't even work at that point. For them practically everything there is is their world, which is at peace.
@@Fistrike bro boruto and his friends are child soldiers just like naruto was. if naruto was the wholesome slice of life you want it to be, they wouldnt let the kids join the military until they were at least 18 . Again, its because naruto doesnt take its own premise seriously. They are child soldiers, but also its whole some and fun! Nah, thats not satisfying to watch. This is why most shonen is terrible. Vinland saga actually shows being a child soldier as a traumatic horrible thing. They dont have it both ways and its much better for it.
How is Naruto supposed to know how to be a good dad when He never had one nor even saw one as an exemple. Plus Naruto went from "I have no family" to "the whole village is my family". Those two factors explain why Naruto is so akward around Boruto. He doesn't how to be with him, how to act ,cause he never saw how a father is supposed to act, and He refuse to prioritize him or Himawari and Hinata over the rest of the village because it is litterally what being Hokage means to him : being port of a big familly where everyone eeds protevtion and attention, not just the Hokage's son.
To be fair, if my dad adopted 50k+ people into our family and suddently had no time for me and my sister anymore, I'd feel and act exactly like Boruto. Boruto is right that there is no reason for Naruto to live 24/7 in the hokage's office and Naruto is right that it is his duty to protect the whole village and make saccrifices in his personal life for the most important job in the village. But this is neither about Boruto nor about Naruto being right. This is about them acting in a very human way in their situation, the rift that forms between them due to lack of communication and refusal to open up, aswell as their inevitable reconciliation. In peace times tiny problems can tear families apart, but when shit goes down, love and familial bonds outweigh everything. Life is hard and managing all responsibilities at the same time takes practice. I love that Naruto's family is not perfect, but they love and care for each other deeply. That's all I wished for him since the first episode of Naruto.
Damn I wish I was in London. I wanna go to a meet up with you. Ever since I found this channel, you’ve been the youtuber I’ve watched the most consistently. I love your content and your personality.
I swear if we avoid talking about a certain plot point later on, Mitsuki is definitely the strongest new gen Edit: I get not liking the cheating but I'll always blame the scientist for Boruto. This man exploited a kid's desire for approal for his own ends and the fact Boruto never at least punches him in his square jaw is a disservice
I dont think cheating matters if you are a ninja, only results. Choji was straight up taking "food pills" which are obviously just combat stims. Kakashi is literally known for stealing jutsu. I dont see how thats any different than putting on technology that lets you do jutsu. Is cheating only ok if its organic? Is that why danzo stole so many unchiha eyes? because it doesnt count as cheating?
@@nullakjg767 That is true and Konohamaru uses the same tool as Boruto in the movie. The issue is that the chunin exams are a test of skill as a Shinobi. It's hard to judge that when there's a ninja tool that gives you access to a wide variety of jutsu with no cost to one's own chakra. It's perfectly fine on a mission but in a test setting it overcomplicates things
@@secretly_ur_dad8702 The reason this is messing with so much, is because the first chunin exam from part 1, was literally to see how good you were at cheating. If you were unwilling to cheat, you failed, with the exception of naruto being too stupid to figure that out and sakura being a genius.
@@nullakjg767 “cheating” in this sense was using your ninja abilities, but that was in a written test. It’s a bit different, it’s like if they say “no calculators allowed” and you pull out a calculator lol
If the anime was a lot shorter then it would be a lot easier to tell if his character has developed. Even after reading the manga i personally dont like him.
also best place for korean or japanese bbq is Kintan, one in oxford circus, the other in kings cross. Kalbi korean bbq is alright , also in kings cross. There's another in central somewhere but forgot the name
You’re misunderstanding naruto at this point of the story. His goals, his job and duties as a father. He was a great father until he became hokage. Its only been a few years. Plus, he didnt have a father to show him how much it means to be there so he cant fully grasp the same feeling/concepts. It all makes sense the more you watch
@@thiaharris858 Then how come Gaara was there for Shinki? And please don't say that Kazekage has less of a paperwork than the Hokage as this isn't true. Both are leaders of ther respective villages and have more than enough mental strain from all of the issues in their villages.
@@EmilySpencer-zp9zi all I said was being hokage is not easy, that's my opinion, I said what I said, eventually he will have more time to spend with his family.
Naruto’s bad parenthood is definitely the cause of Boruto’s path. I’m not saying that Boruto isn’t to blame for cheating, but at this point Naruto didn’t even raise his children he was just occasionally there. Naruto literally had a nicer relationship with Sarada and those few episodes than he does with Boruto 💀 I blame Kishimoto for this, even if he wanted to have that theme of Naruto being a bad father, he could’ve nuanced it just a bit to the point where it doesn’t seem like it’s everything else > Boruto. At this point Naruto would rather do house chores than spend time with Boruto.
I dont necessarily buy that Naruto would basically ignore his son, especially since he knows ehat its like not having that person to lean on, but in the show, i can see him being like, at least Hinata js always there, plus in a way, Naruto might think the best way to keep his family safe is to do everything he can for the village
Also the whole " well Boruto went down the wrong path cause of Naruto not being there " doesn't stand up, cause Naruto for a long time had nobody, then maybe less than a handful backing him, Gaara who went bad at first, but he had no one, Boruto might jot have Naruto, but he had Hinata, many friends, his sister, and decided to ignore all that and used his dad as an excuse
21:39 All I'll say about the Naruto as a dad thing, I say the only argument there is that sure you could expect him to try to be a good dad because of his childhood... but on the flipside of that coin he doesn't know what it means to be a good dad ya feel? Dude probably just doesn't know
What I don't get is why Naruto doesn't just make an army of clones to do all of his hokage work which he already kinda did during the war. In my view Naruto's the president or at least the mayor of the village which is a lot of responsibility, we could only hope that someone like Naruto got to positions of power, willing to throw away his personal needs for the people but when you can literally clone yourself and they're perfect copies you don't even have to do that so what gives.
That is what he has been doing, you can see that in other episodes he took an interview, to check on other projects I think, that time he sent one to his house. But everytime the clone disappears all of the knowledge and experiences are sent back, that's why he is so tired at the end of the day.
The writing needs naruto to have some excuse to be a deadbeat. This is the easiest cop out for the author. He easily could hire people to help but won’t.
@Watcher It's called being smart and efficient, work smarter not harder, he literally used the same strat to get months if not years of training last series from the moment he learned he could use the shadow clones like that, same principle here.
@@TheMrFilipin why? Bro needs help with the paperwork? even real life ceos and presidents have whole cabinets of people helping. People in different departments helping out. He can’t get help with hiring other people or using some shadow clones? Don’t defend bad writing.
mitsuki didnt go sage mode because orochimaru said if he used it be wont beable to be with boruto anymore and it would destroy his body from the inside so thats why he chose to give up saying this match out come is little importance to me compared to staying here in the leaf with boruto
Ngl, Naruto did teach Boruto when he was little. That's how he can do shadow clones. But when Naruto became hokage, he was very dedicated to his work that he often neglected his family because that's his dream. He also doesn't know how to become a proper father because he doesn't have one growing up. Mostly, it's Naruto's mistake that Boruto became who he is now
Orochimaru told him not to use sage mode because the people of the village won’t understand and will treat him unfairly like they did with Naruto so he won’t be able to stay there anymore
Naruto didn’t have any parents that he lived with so I don’t think he got to see what it means to be a good parent. He could’ve done better for sure but he tried🤷🏾♂️
Nah I’m glad Naruto called Boruto out for cheating. If it was any other show, they’d sweep it under the rug and keep it secret. At the same time, I don’t blame Naruto. It’s not his fault his son made that decision
Fr if naruto had been home they would’ve had a wya healthier relationship and boruto wouldn’t be so willing to cheat in order to get his dads attention. He comes off as bratty/immature sometimes but remember he’s only 12-13 years old lol.
The Papa forbade him in the first place.If i remember this correctly. So Mitzuki would very likely win, but he doesn’t really need this victory. As long as Boruto was there. If i understand this situation right
I think that Naruto should have raised this issue of cheating at home. I don’t know. I think that Naruto behaved very wrongly. Even if Boruto corrects himself, he will still hate his father even moThis is not normal and I am convinced that you, as a parent, do not want to make an enemy out of your child. Who Boruto may well become based on the facts known to us
Yeah imagine being the #1 shinobi in the world and leave 0 teachings or tips for your son. Boruto's cheating makes total sense he wants to FINALLY be respected and noticed by Naruto. Dont hate Boruto for making kid choices he is a child. The fact Shinki talked all about his training with Gaara and Gaara passing down his powers to him in front of Boruto who never gets noticed by his dad
The thing is most people only see it as boruto fault and never sees Naruto fault cuz he is their fav mc or lovable character ik he got work and shit but most hokage and kage also got children and they did manage time for their children just cuz u r at high post doesn't mean u dont even have time to ask ur son about his academic progress or just father son chat once in a while boruto was also at fault for using scientific tool but naruto is also as guilty as boruto
This guy dosent understand the responsibilities of a hokage if he just abandons his job for his kids the village will go to shit eventually he'll lose his title do to the higher ups the village depends on him as for all the hokages before him as we'll we knew hed be busy when kakashi became hokage he had no time for himself same as with busty.
Reason Mitzuki dont want to go sage mode is that Orochimaru forbid him, he wont be able to stay in Konoha whit Boruto i fthey know about his power. And yes first time i saw this i really didnt like that Boruto cheated. But put i his perspective, he only want his dad to aknowledge him. He forgot so fast that he learned the rasengan in like what 2 days and that he really is a strong ninja in his age. And yes next couple of episodes will be some of the best even if you include Og naruto and Shipuden....
Also “why would you put your work before your kids” don if being off for two days can start a 5th great shinobi world war I’m sure MATURE kids wouldn’t mind you working all day cause if not it will be his kid in the battle field battling and maybe dying so thankyou Naruto
He literally has the power to make 1000 perfect clones of himself to do it for him? So why Is he not even taking a little bit of time to spend with his family for once lol😅
Naruto doesnt just have "work", being hokage is literally taking care of the whole village, u underestimate that like its nothing, and its not like Boruto doesnt have parents, he still has Hinata, Himawari, hsi friends, Naruto unlike him was all alone,
What always bothered me was that boruto could have gone to see naruto at anytime. But the same can be said about naruto especially since the man can use clones like clock work and just have them work for a bit. You see naruto with other kids more than his own lol.
How can Boruto just go to see him at any time? While he is at work in the office? That's not who he wants to see, he wants his dad's attention not the Hokage. In the office Naruto is very different than he is at home, to the point he corrects Boruto and dissalowes him to call him dad in the Hokage office. Boruto has completely mentally separated Dad and Hokage in his mind as was made very clear in the first few arcs. Naruto is just the hokage to Boruto while he is working, he doesn't even see him as just his dad in that situation so why would he go see him?
Nah Boruto cant see Naruto whenever he wants and that's pretty obvious. Naruto can tho but he specifically chooses not to because he thinks its more important to actually be in the office or out training the Jonin in order to ensure the Leaf is always safe and prepared.
Aiight so Naruto is definately messing up as a father but the whole "never had parents" thing isn't a reason for him to do more as a parent. The mans has no point of reference, he has no damn clue what "being a parent" is supposed to look like since he literally never had any. The dude definately needs to stop fucking it all up but yeah it's a bit excusable due to his circumstances.
8:55 yea well gaara and Naruto has majorly different roles the sand was idk if it still is the weakest village konaha and the village where the raikage is from (brain fart) are the strongest the leaf and the leaf alone is the reason all villages are in peace gaara doesn’t have to get all political like Naruto as we see from shikamaru light novel where it was almost a 5 great shinobi world war
21:48 cuz the whole naruto show he was trying to be come hokage lmao he ain’t finna give it up for his son lol no one was strongenthan him n sasuke n sasuke fosho didn’t wanna be hokage after the war🤣 & also both Naruto parents were dead before he could even talk so can’t compare that lol
Mitsuki didn't show his sage mode because it would "inconvenience his parent" and so he could "stay here longer". I copied and pasted an explanation from @Olarinde Olanrewaju on Quora below that explains it in full detail. "An OVA once said sage mode is banned due to the unfair advantage it will grant over other Chunnin hopefuls. It is a very advanced power that easily puts its wielder in Jounin level or higher depending on their pre-existing skill set. Also, being able to use sage mode at the age of 12/13 will bring about unwanted attention. People who have largely ignored Mitsuki will start to wonder about his ancestry and how he came to be in Konoha. Also, when it is noticed that his sage mode is snake themed, the smart ones will put it together and know there must be a connection between him and Orochimaru. This is something Orochimaru, Mitsuki and Naruto won’t want to happen because Konoha really isn’t much of an Orochimaru fan. He might have been forgiven, but people will be wary of him having a kid around tem and it can lead to a child Naruto situation all over again in which he would be ignored and distrusted for something that he can’t really help."
To put it simply without much spoilers its more because it puts strain and suffering on his body and organs and we all know that it makes him being alive and able to stay in konoha difficult. Especially as a synthetic human.
tbh "naruto should be there for botuto" naruto himself never cheated and he had no parents or anything... everyone in feaf hated him. only pervy sage and iruka was there for him.... so boruto get yo shit straight and grow up!
My only problem is they are ninja so using tools to have an advantage is part of their strat, from broken swords to seals they use op tools, i understand yes he cheated this contest but i give boruto the win cause thats ninja as fuck to gain the advantage anyway you can
The problem is that they are testing their personal growth, abilities and skills so that they can become stronger themselves, if they let a tool do everything for them then they're gonna become dependant and when they don't have that tool they're gonna be defenseless
Naruto tought boruto about as much as the tool did, Naruto having kurama was basically cheating as the tailed beasts were being used as tools for power, being a shinobi is about using everything at your disposal to come out on top, I understand it's to rate their skills but just like the written exam in Naruto cheating is a huge shinobi skill and boruto didn't get caught till the end so he won imo, also using purple lightning like that might also awaiken deeper levels faster with the stress that comes with using powerful justu so I thought it was a cool idea to implement
@@dominiklaurent3052 the difference being that Naruto had to train to learn how to use the power of the tailed beast which wanted him to lose control so it could be free, also they cheated in the written exams by using their own skills and unique abilities that they trained to develop, using a ninja tool that wastes non of your chakra and can easily spam Hokage level ninjutsu like purple lighting is like taking a gun to an archery tournament, you ignore all the training and you just aim and pull the trigger to let the gun do all the work, it´s exactly the same to let a ninja tool do all the work for you and bragging about winning like that against people who did their best effort and trained so much to become strong is shameful
Well Boruto didn’t NOT have parents. He had Hinata. And when you grow up in certain circumstances it’s always 50/50 what you’ll do. You’ll either do the same thing or work to change and be better. Naruto did both. He started off, as the father you pictured him to be. Until he became Hokage and then his time started being taken from them. Borito says this himself. I think you probably skipped the episode. Naruto simply sucked at balancing work and home. You’ll get the explanation in episode 65 from Naruto himself. Which I think you probably watched on patreon already. So I don’t think it doesn’t make sense. It’s not like Naruto was just never there ever from the time they were born. It gets resolved and their relationship flourishes from there. Also, about the animation with the purple lightning. If you watched the episodes you skipped, you would’ve seen much better animation than that. I really don’t know why you skipped the academy arcs. You get SOOO much insight into so much stuff that would probably had you thinking a bit differently right now.
Although Naruto being a bad parent and what happened during the birthday pushed Boruto into being mad at him, there's no excuse for cheating even if he did it to get his dad's attention because he directly lied and disrespected everybody who valued him, even if he lost at least it would have been honorable as long as he was decided to become stronger just like everybody else
Boruto at this point doesn't give a damn about being ninja or the shinobi ways nor power, this isn't about winning or being the strongest like it was in OG for the others, he doesn't care about those things in the least, this is all about Naruto and his attention. Him cheating succeeds In catching his dad's attention because after winning with the tool Boruto got more attention from Naruto every match then he did before and that just reinforces this mentality for him. He is still a kid and like all kids he wants his parents attention and he is being gaslight by a trusted adult and friend in Katatsuke.
@@stevenviljoen160 exactly and thats what people dont understand about boruto's character, hes a kid literally trying to get his fathers attention, he doesnt know and doesnt care about how it is and being a shinobi, all that matters to him is getting his fathers attention, even if that means cheating.
The absolute WORST thing about the whole "he has to work so much" is still that he could just make 100 clones and let them do it. He would get all the information from their work as soon as he dissolves them and could do whatever he likes smh.
No it was stated somewhere before that he can’t do that because the mental strain of doing it all will also be applied to all the clones so when he releases the jutsu it will be bad for his health
@@Koonski yeah you’d think. Idk whether or not he has more than one doing it, but regardless the “uzumaki with the 9 tails” part is irrelevant bc it’s not about chakra
@@Koonski He definitely could. It's kind of a plot hole that they poorly tried to address. Naruto had hundreds of clones trying to apply wind style to the rasengan for hours and was fine until the clones didn't have enough chakra to subdue Kurama. Having a couple of clones do paperwork should be easy. If Gaara can make Shinki as strong as he is, Naruto should have had time to teach Boruto the rasengan at least. Hell, he could've asked Kakashi to help since he could teach Boruto a bunch more jutsu and has nothing but free time.
as far as I can remember he didn't. I'm pretty sure it's mentioned in one of the novels that Boruto learned shadow clone Jutsu by simply observing Naruto doing it a few times. pretty much them trying to show he's a prodigy from an early age.
@@mirizzz5710 no stop tryna discredit naruto and oversell boruto. IDK what novels you have read but it was stated that naruto taught boruto the shadow clone jutsu before he went to the academy.
In Narutos defense, it is hard to be a good parent if you out have an example of a good parent. Jiraiya was the closest he got and... he would abandon him to go look at women. It's just not instinct for him wharmt being a parent is
Does he? He was pretty much just happy for winning, and wanted to make Naruto "see him" the way a father should see his son. The only reason that made Boruto cheat is the same reason that ACTUALLY made him participate in the Chunin Exams, which is Naruto watching him fight and ACTUALLY remember that he has kids, so if Naruto was a good father, and had trained at least a little with Boruto, he literally wouldn't have even one reason to cheat, and there is also Katatsuke, if he was not in a genjutsu, Boruto wouldn't have cheated.
I was hoping for the next episode of seven deadly sins today but this episode of Boruto is good because we all get to hate on Boruto together because he's a cheating piece of tradh
@@theprinceton3531 you're legit flooding this comment section trying to make sure you let everyone know you have Boruto's cock up your ass. you are the one that needs to cope
Shippuden didn't animate ch700, the final chapter of naruto which established Naruto current mindset as hokage and his relationship with his children is why you probably feel naruto to be so jarring because the transition is sloppy.
