Have you been keeping up with Boruto? because oh boy it got so bad the moment Kishimoto came back to write it

Nope! I flipped through maybe 8 chapters of Twin Blue Vortex a few months ago and was so unimpressed I just didn't bother checking back in again. Everything I know beyond that and the really early stuff from right when it was getting started is secondhand. Tbh I'd heard it was always bad and just became a different kind of bad when Kishi came back...? Also the anime got cancelled or is on hiatus or something...?

I'm totally disinterested in following Boruto, I really don't care for NEXT GEN sequels and Naruto wasn't the best place for one anyway, plus it seems to capitalise on the least interesting bits of Narutos worldbuilding. None of the new characters sound interesting except maaaaybe Kawaki, but like... not like this, and what they did to the existing cast.... lmao

Has something extra dumb happened in TBV? Last time I checked in Boruto was fighting Orochimarus kid (lol) and I heard Gaara... died or something?
