#Boruto vs Shinki

[jacksgreysays]

Ahh, your new and very bleak AU is such a good read! I'm curious, what is Sasuke doing in this AU and how is he juggling the relationships? And did you have any ideas of where you would take this Au further if you did? If it would get bleaker or at least a little better?

First off, thank you! Yeah, this AU is very bleak and I don’t know why it’s the only thing my brain wanted to churn out but I decided to let it happen.

Second, oof, hold on to your seats, this is gonna be rough: I have a lot of Thoughts™ about this AU.

So, Sasuke is a sticking point in this AU because everyone else is pretty easy to understand on which side they’d fall, but I did want him specifically to be neutral in the aftermath. Because I didn’t want it to be Shikako and Sasuke vs Naruto but also Shikako vs Sasuke and Naruto isn’t great either and realistically, even the DoS version of Sasuke still loves vengeance.

He would’ve been on the side of legal capital punishment for sure because vengeance, but once it became official that the councilors were going to be imprisoned instead I don’t think he would have approved of Shikako’s actions. Like, I think it’s the illegality that is the problem especially if he’s head of KMP at this time. But even if he’s not, Shikako performing an extrajudicial execution is very much skirting the line into… uh… power corrupts type vibe.

I also wanted Sasuke to be in Konoha: in DoS future fic in general, not just this AU, I like the idea that Shikako is the traveler while Sasuke is the one who stays in Konoha—or, if he does travel, it’s because he’s traveling WITH Shikako. (Tangentially related, I do think Naruto likes traveling but THINKS he likes being in Konoha because of his Hokage dream and that explains why he’s Like That in Boruto)

Anyway, in this AU Sasuke is in Konoha and conflicted on this matter to the point of being neutral. Because on the one hand, yes, justified vengeance of course. He was definitely team justified vengeance. But even if he doesn’t UNDERSTAND Naruto’s decision to not give Shikako her justified vengeance, he’s—in this universe—law abiding.

So I don’t know if it’s just the act of extrajudicial execution or if Shikako asked him to be accessory to it or if she tricked him into being accessory to it, but Sasuke doesn’t approve. So ideally Sasuke agrees with Shikako that the councilors should have been given the capital punishment, but the methods that Shikako used (whether involving/compromising Sasuke himself) he disapproves of so in that way he agrees with Naruto.

Hence, conflicted to the point of neutrality.

I should also maybe mention that Sakako doesn’t exist in this AU. Which sucks for Shikadai because he also doesn’t have his other cousins either—or, rather, they exist, but he’s not going to meet them and they aren’t his cousins: Kareru (if he does exist) is an Uzumaki (which the Nara have conflicted feelings about.) And in my own little headcanon of NGSS Shikako’s the one that finds Araya, Gaara’s the one that finds Yodo, and while Kankurou was the one to find Shinki he’s very busy in this universe what with being the Kazekage and all—but understandably sucks more for Sasuke considering he basically lost a child. Or never had the child that he could have?

Schroedinger’s child.

Anyway, he does still have Sarada, which is good. Whether or not he also has the other biological kids because of the repopulation program is kinda up in the air of whether that would be affected by Konoha’s internal politics.

Weirdly, I think his relationships with other people hinge on how I want Sakura to feel about Shikako’s actions? And now I’m fully going off the rails, but I like the idea of SaixInoxSakura as a stable throuple in a good future. In this bleak AU it’s obvious whose side Ino is on, and DoS!Sai has always been Shikako’s more than Naruto’s (and also, he’s so down to break the law for her it’s great,) and while that is also true of Sakura, she’s also a civilian born medic. So philosophically, she would agree with Naruto that imprisonment is better than execution. And she would also agree that what Shikako did is pretty fucked up.

But Sakura is also the kind of person who, in canon, forgave Sasuke for a lot and worse shit. And there’s also Inner Sakura to think about because, yeah, we don’t see her as much (if at all) but, you know, hurt those who have hurt you is a very instinctive thing to do.

What I’m saying is: if Sakura has somehow threaded the needle on her own conflicting feelings about Shikako’s actions, then because Sarada is Sasuke’s link to her, Sakura might be Sasuke’s best friend?

Because he definitely lost Shikako when everything went down, but he kind of also lost Naruto even before that when he denied Shikako her justified vengeance?

And if his best friend is Sakura now, then his social circle kind of depends on her social circle. Like, if she’s remained in the throuple with Ino and Sai without weird lingering resentments, then by default his social circle includes them and other people who were on Shikako’s side. If she didn’t remain in that throuple then their social circle is people who were Naruto’s side.

… Schroedinger’s throuple…

Anyway, as for the direction this AU is going, I suppose it also depends on whose POV you’re in?

The reason why Shikako is running around being international superstar Kako Heijo is because she didn’t want to destroy Konoha by kicking off a civil war. Like, she doesn’t regret killing those councilors, but politically it doesn’t look great for her to blatantly refute the Hokage’s decision. And it especially isn’t great if she stays there where people who agreed with her would rally behind her and cause an internal schism in the administration that would lead to a civil war.

It’s like the situation in Indelible except worse.

Unfortunately, her pulling a Tsunade and leaving while not being a missing nin didn’t really solve the problem so much as delay it or make everything hide under layers of passive aggression.

Because the trajectory that I currently have is that the ANY clans are gradually and quietly seceding from Konoha. Those three clans could practically form their own functioning village—the Yamanaka and Nara are in so many different departments and the Akimichi (or at least my version of it) have noble/civilian ties and resources—in a way that could devastate Konoha’s infrastructure for at least a few months if not years if they just up and left. Obviously, not everyone in the administration is from the clan system so it’s not like a debilitating walk out for the village, but it doesn’t look great and also there are some who aren’t in the clan system who might want to defect to wherever the ANY go.

Like, my brain definitely has some Ino-and-Chouji-being-coldly-furious fic ideas including the absolute INSULT it would be to them that Konohamaru is BORUTO’S jounin sensei when EVERYONE KNOWS that the Sarutobi are supposed to be mentors to the Ino-Shika-Cho. (To be fair, Naruto didn’t do this as a deliberate snub. Obviously he doesn’t know about clan ties/alliances, but it’s a pretty glaring misstep that he hasn’t learned that since becoming Hokage and an especially worse misstep that he assigned Konohamaru to his own son’s team out of preferential treatment.)

There were other perceived slights over the years, I’m sure, but I just especially like turning Boruto canon into something for Ino and Chouji to rage over. It’s great. They’re so mad in this AU. I love it.

So I guess… thinking about how to make this less bleak would be… if Shikako and Shikadai are trying to figure out how to save Konoha from itself. And also keep Shikadai out of Sand’s clutches.

Which I guess means that Shikadai has to become Hokage?

… which is a pretty funny take on the original premise of Naruto. Like, I’m going to become the strongest/the Hokage to protect the people I love (from a civil war.)

I’m legit laughing.

But in all seriousness, any next major steps narratively of this AU would have to be done by Shikako, Shikadai, and maybe Kankurou in order to prevent Konoha’s implosion. And unfortunately, this situation is so tangled up politically that it can’t just be Shikako swooping in to save the day.

Like, even if they somehow found Gaara, it wouldn’t change the fact the Shikamaru was assassinated, Naruto wouldn’t let the Nara clan have their justified vengeance, and Shikako took it by force anyway.

It’s a very sins of the father (or… aunts/uncles) situation where only the next generation—ie Shikadai—can seize the means by which to… I guess… forgive all parties involved and if not repair then at least put out the active flames of the burning bridges.

Either that or time travel which has been brought up before… which could be pretty cool but is also pretty funny because, like, imagine you’re a 12 year old boy and your international superstar aunt and your foreign king uncle, both of whom you’ve only just met, go time traveling together. That’s hilarious.

All of which is a very long way for me to say that the passive trajectory is bleak, but an active narrative would involve attempts to make it less bleak (either by Shikadai becoming Hokage or the strangest boy and his aunt and uncle go on a time travel roadtrip, lol)

Boruto cheated during his first Chunin exam by using the Shinobi gauntlet and people are defending him by saying that other shinobis used tools in the chunin exams and they can cheat too. However, they don't seem to understand that the rules of the Chunin exam differ from time to time and the use of tools in it.

First, the use of tools is allowed as long as it doesn't give an unfair advantage and has been training hard to use it. Puppet users like Kankuro and Araya trained to use their puppets and made modifications to suit them. The sound genins (RIP) has tools that help amplify their sound based abilities but they still need training to use them properly.

Second, cheating in the written exam in the Chunin exams is tolerated but don't get caught since it is a test for gathering intelligence. Well, you are allowed to do any means necessary to gather intelligence but if you're caught, it's over.

Boruto's use of the Shinobi Gauntlet is considered cheating since the gauntlet was designed for non-shinobi to be able to use ninjutsu techniques (even high-level ones) without the need for training and chakra use. Looking at it, the intention was good since it will help non-shinobi to fight in case the regular shinobi forces are not enough. However, Boruto is a trained shinobi and yet, he resorted to using that tool. He got away pretty much with it until his use of Purple Lightning in the anime gave him away as Purple Lightning is Kakashi's own technique. That's why it's understandable for Naruto to "shame" Boruto for cheating since it is a despicable move. He got caught red-handed in front of the other kages and Naruto brushing it just because Boruto is his kid won't do him or Konoha any better.

P.S. - others were also calling Naruto a cheat when he tapped the Kyuubi's chakra vs Neji but it isn't since the Kyuubi is inside Naruto since he was a baby and what Jiraiya did is teach him how to tap into it without resorting to extreme emotions to do so. Naruto had to train to tap into it and had a hard time doing so at first. It is not similar to what Boruto did.

Well, the puppets were like a food pill, allowed. With the Sound Nin, their tools are basically their abilities. So if they don’t have them, they technically can’t use their abilities.

Boruto and his friends didn’t have the written test until the second Chunin Exams. They were allowed to cheat, unless they get caught 5 times, and Boruto managed to survive that with Mitsuki’s help. Of course, he didn’t get an option to use the Shinobi tool. But cheating was encouraged.

Because he was a trained Shinobi, it did count as cheating because he could’ve easily used those abilities (expect Purple Lightning and not as strong as the Shinobi tool allowed him). But he wanted to prove to his father, hence why he was so easily manipulated into using it.

I agree, the Shinobi tools were a good idea, yet for the Chunin Exams, Katasuke should’ve taken no as the answer instead of manipulating Boruto. And Boruto was an idiot for using an ability that was only unique to Kakashi. I get he wanted to beat Shinki and show off in front of Naruto, but that was just plain dumb.

Yes, Kurama is basically like Akamaru. So if Kiba was allowed to use Akamaru, then Naruto should’ve been allowed to use Kurama.

Their cheating is completely different because Naruto still managed to beat Neji with his own abilities, a bit coming from Kurama, whereas Boruto relied only on the Shinobi tool and didn’t even use at least one of his own abilities except Shadow Clones.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17: Release Date & Spoilers

Highlights: - Team 7 faces the Sentient God Trees in the upcoming issues. - Sarada may reveal her Mangakun Saringan ability. - Masashi Kishimoto set a stage for fierce battle. Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 is an upcoming issue in the Naruto franchise and, according to the Manga Plus website, will be available for fans to read on Thursday, December 19, 2024, at 08:30 PM IST. Being the last issue of 2024, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 will introduce fans to the most brutal dual between Team 7 and Team Shinki against Ryu and Matsuri.

(Credits: Boruto and Kashin Koji from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex) The latest issue saw a short conversation between Kashin Koji via Toad and Shikamaru, where he suggested a way to save Gaara and Shinki from the God Tree. He says, Sarutobi Konoharu, Uchiha Sarada, and Mitsuri. Deploy those three to the land of winds. This suggestion came after Koji witnessed the future events with the Ten Directions, his new form ability. With this, he predicts God Trees' next move of attacking Sunagakure and capturing Gaara. It makes sense since Gaara was the prime target of Sentient God Tree, Ryu. Moreover, Konohamaru's involvement in the mission would ignite hype for the most awaited battle between the two former friends.

(Credits: Sarada, Sumire, and Eida from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex ) With his involvement, fans can expect Matsuri to face Konohamaru since he is her prime target. Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 likely focuses on Team 7 battle with Matsuri and Ryu with the assistant of Shinki's team. Since Konohamaru is the target of Matsuri and there's no sign of Gaara in the long-range, Ryu probably helps his fellow God Tree in her battle. There is a possibility of seeing Sarada Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan abilities along Mitsuri Snake Sage mode. Unfortunately, while writing the article, there's no way of telling what will happen next in the series. Plus, there are no verified spoilers available on the internet. Now, there is one month before the official release of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17, fans can depend on the internet theories. According to one popular theory, the upcoming issue will focus on the character development of Konohamaru, Sarada, and Mitsuki, with no presence of Boruto and Kawaki in the entire chapter.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17: Release Date & Time

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 is the next in the series and will follow the most awaited encounter, Konohamaru and Matsuri (Moegi Kazamatsuri) in the Land Of Wind. The incident occurred after Kashin Koji predicted the God Trees' next move to capture Kazekage Gaara in the Land of Wind. With the prediction, he also suggests sending Sarutobi Konoharu, Uchiha Sarada, and Mitsuri, who will be assisted there by Shinki's team. Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 is the last issue of this year and will cover one of the most exciting panels where the two former friends try to kill each other. Technically, Konohamar's friend (Moegi Kazamatsuri) isn't present but rather the clone. Still, he may hesitate and try to use all defence to move against her. Sarada and Mitsuki will help Konohamaru regain his sense and get him back on the mission. Overall, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter will be a fun ride for fans witnessing the most brutal battle of the series. The upcoming chapter of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex will be released in the following regions: - Pacific Daylight Time: December 19 at 8:00 AM PT - British Summer Time: December 19 at 4:00 PM BST - Indian Standard Time: December 19 at 8:30 PM IST - Japanese Standard Time: December 20 at midnight JST

Konohamaru, Sarada, And Mitsuki Vs. Matsuri And Ryu

Two Blue Vortex Chapter 16 teases the forthcoming battle between Team 7 and the God Trees. Fans have been eagerly waiting to see Matsuri in action, and the wait will be over with the previous team members facing each other in the upcoming issue. Matsuri "Moegi" will try to kill Konohamaru since he is her prime target and help Ryu break the seal of Gaara put by Shinki in Chapter 15.

(Credits: Sarada, Konohamaru, and Mitsuri from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex) There's also a conformation between the two former friends who become enemies where we can see the flashback of how Moegi turned into a tree. Currently, there are no spoilers available on the internet, but we can guess Moegi's transformation to Matsuri has something to do with Konohamaru, which makes the situation more emotional for fans. Fans following Two Blue Vortex will understand that Sasuke clone "Hidari" wants to devour Sarada because he cares about him, and the same with Moegi since she cares about Konohamaru, which makes him her prime target. Further, fans can expect to see Konohamaru's new Jutsu, and likely use them to keep her busy, till Sarada uses her Chidori on her. Fans don't know how strong Matsuri is, but given the status of all the God Trees, she's likely at or above the level of the Kage. Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 will focus more on Matsuri and Konohamaru's battle, and Ryu's against Sarada and Mitsuki will keep sideline.

What To Expect From Chapter 17

The Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17 opens up where Chapter 16 left off, with Ryu and Matsuri invading Sunagakure while looking for Gaara. They want to devour Kazakage and complete Ryu's motive in the series. Before they can accomplish their objective, Konohamaru, Sarada, and Mitsuki stand as an obstacle. After Kashin Koji suggested Shikamaru sends his best unit, Sarada, Mitsuki, and Konoamaru. He even suggests not to engage with Jura if he appears. This proves that Kashin Koji saw something that may have to do with Konohamaru, Sarada, and Mitsuki. Therefore, he clearly stated their names in Chapter 16, indicating their involvement in the upcoming battles with God Trees.

(Credits: Ryu and Matsuri from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, Manga Plus) Fans following Boruto: Two Blue Vortex will know that Matsuki's prime target is Konohamaru, yet he recommends his name for the Gaara rescue mission, indicating that Koji Ten Direction ability benefits. He may have seen something that has to do with Konohamaru and Matsuri that may affect the future. There's a possibility that Konohamaru and Matsuki will face off against each other, and she will try to kill him. However, he may overcome his emotions and defeat her. Konohamaru was introduced as a perfect candidate for the position of future Hokage. But in Two Blue Vortex, he's just become a punching bag where anyone can knock him out. Finally, fans can witness Konoharu's strength in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17. He will not only defeat Matsuri but be able to rescue Gaara. Talking about the Gaara rescue mission, Sarada and Mitsuki will play a role in providing Konohamaru help. They could keep him busy while their sensi will fight with Matsuki. Boruto: Two Blue Chapter 17 could highlight Sarada Magako Saringan and Mitsuki Snake Sage mode. It is one of the most talked-about chapters and will answer fans many questions. Talking about Boruto, he revealed that he will not be appearing in the upcoming issue and beyond as he and Kawaki are training together.

Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 16: Recap

Two Blue Vortex Chapter 16 opens with a flashback of Boruto and Kashin Koji having their first lengthy conversation after Chapter 13. Kashin Koji tells the protagonist about the spacetime ninjutsu. He says, It instantly transports you or other people anywhere. It is similar to the Ohtsutsuki flying ability. It tells Boruto that he manifested Ohtsutsuki's flying ability many times in past, but unconsciously. However, in about six years, he will manage to master the flying technique. However, it is not an Ohtsutsuki's but his ninjutsu which enables him to move freely and instantly wherever he wants. And the name of the technique is 'Flying Raijin jutsu." Kashin Koji further says, The similar jutsu favoured by his grandfather, Namikaze Minato, the Fourth Hokage. The scene shifted, and we saw him practising the Flying Raijin Thundergod. He starts with the shuriken and kunai to transport himself from one place to another. He wraps the chakra around those metal tools to use the technique to its full potential. Later, fans learn about the drawbacks of Boruto's new jutsu. The tools used should be in his visual range to transport from places. According to Koji, if he uses the same appearance tools, then it is challenging to transport the exact place. However, to eliminate this drawback, he must consider using symbols. As have you who will likely see this sooner or later, Eida. -- Kashin Koji Kashin Koji already saw with his Ten Direction ability that Eida would use her Omnipotence to look at them. Back to the present, Sarada and Eida have a conversation where the Uchiha asks if she finds anything about Boruto. She said to leave Boruto alone as he didn't want them to be involved in the battle against Sentient God Trees. The latest issue ends with Kashin Koji suggesting Shikamaru send Konohamaru, Mitski, and Sarada to a Land Of Wind. They will be accompanied by two Sand shinobi who will guide them in Gaara's rescue mission. Further, he suggests not letting Himawari out of the village since Jura has his eyes on her. If they do, Himawari will get killed. Moreover, they shouldn't try to provoke Jura by any means. The ninja world currently is in no position to take on Jura. In the final panel of Two Blue Vortex, fans noticed Ryu and Matsuri arrived in the Land of Wind and Konohamaru, Mitsuki, and Sarada spying on them from far away.

Ryu And Matsuri Full Potential Will Be Reveal In The Upcoming Issue

Masashi Kishimoto sets the stage for Ryu and Matsuri to demonstrate their true strength in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 17. The two Sentient God Trees, Ryu and Matsuri, have always become the topic of discussion in the anime community after Chapter 14. Matsuri and Ryu are the mysterious characters whose true strength hasn't been revealed yet. While Matsuri defeated Kazekage Gaara, Ryu pulled Code from his hidden place in front of others. These two moments were enough to showcase their powers in the Boruto universe. There's no official confirmation whether they can take on Boruto and Kawaki if they faced. Fans can expect to get all answers in the upcoming issue when Ryu and Matsuri face Konohamaru, Sarada, and Mitsuki. There's a possibility of witnessing Sarada's Mangekyou Sharingan in action.

Boruto EP226

aka: “the future is now thanks to science!”

Oh? The preview showed Denki vs Tsubaki’s match but I never assumed it would be the last one.. which means..

“Boruto uzumaki and Mitsuki.. both participants are disqualified, due to their absence!” Well, that’s real unfortunate.

Considering team 15 already has a chunin with Wasabi and team 5 doesn’t, I can assume they’re going to make Denki win for that reason alone, which sucks, because how?

“Did we make it?” “Nope, you didn’t make it at all!” Ohh Sarada is pissed!

The whole “scientific tools is allowed” rule was made just for Denki honestly, god knows he wouldn’t stand a chance without them.

Ohh, even Shinki recognizes Tsubaki has speed 

Of course Katasuke comes to watch this match.

“Dr. Katasuke, you must feel awkward considering what happened in the previous chunin exam, right?” Always gotta love how blunt Mitsuki is.

Ah, but if Tsubaki loses, I can see how that would make her want to stay in Konoha instead of return home to the Land of Iron.

I mean, I shouldn’t be too hard on Denki, since the idea of the scientific tools are essentially like puppet masters, but still.. jutsu. technology. not quite the same in my eyes.

There ya go, Tsubaki figured out his secret and landed a few good hits by being unpredictable and destroying his motion sensor.

Now that the tools are overheating, I can’t imagine him winning, and yet I still feel like I’m gonna be disappointed.

Hm.. he actually let his mecha suit be destroyed and actually used a jutsu himself.. okay.

I can’t believe we live in a world where Denki is a chunin but Boruto and Mitsuki are not.. how wild.

Sarada trying so hard to be mad at the boys but she still appreciates their congrats on her promotion.

The girls are so happy to have Tsubaki stay with them.

Gaara really sent team Shinki here on a mission to observe Kawaki huh.

Poor Shikadai is stuck paying for the entire team’s meal.

Aww, Houki with his chunin vest though.

Sarada showing her vest off to Sasuke and Sakura too! Proud parents!

OH Mitsuki and Boruto went back to the stadium to have their match but we don’t get to see it?? Damn!

Preview thoughts:

Ahh that shinobi Sakura is healing.. it’s Mirai isn’t it? It has to be, Kurenai is right there. Oh nooo!

I should be concerned that Konohamaru is missing and needs backup, but Mirai though. She has my attention.

And it doesn’t even surprise me that they don’t even have Sarada wearing the chunin vest..

[hayakkawa]

ngl it's kind of a turn off seeing many events of naruto (og and shippuden) having paralles in boruto. from what i've watched so far, we have; the intro of the anime being another sasuke vs naruto thingy, the whole chunnin exams attack, mitsuki/sasuke recovery "mission" and i'm guessing shinki and boruto will end up like gaara and naruto (rivals during the chunnin exams and buddies afterwards)

it already was a bit too much having way too many characters being paralleled with naruto and sasuke, but now it's the plot too?

[digital-dhampirs]

Boruto theories/headcanons (spoilers for Boruto episode 1- episode 70)

So I’ve been watching Boruto like a madman and here are some of my favorife headcanons/ theories for the show! Will have spoilerssss

new ship: Hanabi and Konohamaru. They’re in the same age group, get along well, and their interaction during the recap episode where all the teachers reflect on their students before the chunin exams? adorable.

another new ship: Cho-Cho and Shinki; we haven’t seen much of them but their dynamic reminds me of like... if the gaara vs. naruto fight and the temari vs. shikamaru fight from the chunin exams in naruto had a baby....

another new ship, this one is like 100% a headcanons: shikadai and ryogi

boruto’s forgetfulness isn’t just forgetfulness, it’s memory loss due to some outside force?

*sobbing* sasuke come back and teach sarada chidori

I know sarada’s going to get the other two wheels in her sharingan at some point, but I’m super torn about her and the mangekyo. On one hand I really want sarada to get the mangekyo sharingan and become incredibly op (and it seems like a sort of prereq to being hokage) but on the other hand in order for her to achieve the mangekyo she’d have to go through something like her family or friends being slaughtered and I don’t want that for her TT-TT

ok hear me out I’m pretty sure boruto and sarada are gonna be a couple, right?? it’s like the culmination of sasunaru in the next generation lmao... anyways, this is thinking waaaay too far ahead but I wanna see the world where sarada is hokage (ninth hokage, after konohamaru oFC) and Boruto is her right hand man, making sure she always comes home to interact with the kids no matter how much work she has

I also wanna see Himawari become a ninja

also, sarada already has a lot of itachi in her (reliable, good at genjutsu even tho she’s a kid, etc) I want to see m o r e of this comparison

this is more of a reaction: NOW WE KNOW HOW HE GOT THE HEADBAND IN THE TRAILEERRR

[thatshinobilife]

Whenever Shinki calls Gaara father I feel like someone has physically struck me with a baseball bat full of nails.  

[yzy-sunagakure]

Who else thought of this

When they saw this

[scarletspringsarada]

Yup, I won't be able to sleep tonight

This scene is gonna haunt me for the rest of my days

[bakapandy]

The problem that they are going to make for him only 5 seconds scream them like saying "oh boruto became more strong " or any thing about mitsuki or say that kawakie is a new but he is strong I hate it I hope someone get injured and they say to shinki to be in his place and he be vs one of team 7 plz good 😢😢

They’re going to give him all of 2 seconds of screen time and I still won’t shut up about it for at least 3 week, don’t worry
