----------------------------------------
They managed to use some decent soundtrack for the fight. I'd say, this is one of the better episodes of the arc. Plus, we got to see more of Boruto's potential and the combo attack he did.

I'm underwhelmed by Sasuke's fight though.

Well at least the fight was a bit more impressive than previous episodes, didn't expect Boruto and Shinki to hurt Urashiki that much

Good ep
The fight was good but i wanted to see more of urashiki's abilities
We didn't get sasuke vs urashiki :'( but it seems like urashiki will appear in multiple arcs so this will eventually happen
This ep pretty much concludes the arc . The arc was good and so interesting but it had some plot conveniences and minor problems .It had a great potential and i was expecting something better, i was a bit disappointed . However I understand that they are just trying to tease us with this arc and build for a bigger story with urashiki as a main villain in the anime , this will make the anime-only arcs a lot more interesting and i like the idea . I hope that this will minimize the amount of the slice of life eps and episodic fillers . I'm excited to see what happens next :D

Because urashiki was underestimating them and didn't use his full power , they cought him off guard and managed to land a hit
Besides sasuke and gaara were fighting against tons of toneri puppets in addition to urashiki

Me too ! That would be great especially after wasting a whole arc on her , at least they should give her an important role .
We didn't see her full power so seeing that in addition to the teamwork with shinki and boruto would be amazing . Such a shame :/

Got to see a bit of Jougan's visual prowess. But I gotta say, Urashiki was a bit slow in this fight, or probably it's cuz of Pierrot.

All is lively and healthy, what a peaceful arc, back to the filler, I guess.

So it's called Jougan, huh? We got a little taste of its visual prowess for now, I wonder when we'll get more on that.

Pretty cool fight (action choreography wise and soundtrack usage) with the two against Urashiki, some really smart thinking and quick decisions to boot. I'm surprised the two managed to fare with him so well too, the power levels in this Boruto series in particular has always been questionable and this is just another one of those instances. How convenient for the others to be completely fine too, I wonder how Shikadai and Temari managed to survive.

Looks like Shukaku will be staying with Boruto's family now. I wonder if we'll get part of this arc from the week after or so. I wonder when we'll get to see Boruto & Young Naruto's bit that was confirmed yesterday (20th Anniversary of Naruto Manga, for those wondering).

A mix of that plus the crappy power levels of this sequel, if you ask me.

Well it's true that there are some power scaling problems in boruto but i don't think that this one of them. Urashiki was underestimating boruto and shinki and he wasn't fighting them seriously . He also doesn't want to kill boruto since he needs him to be a hostage . Also boruto's jougan made urashiki's teleportations almost useless ... and after all that they only managed to hit him once and they used all their chakra and stamina , if sasuke didn't come they would be dead (shinki at least)
Besides i don't think that urashiki is used to fighting (most of his abilities are useful for scouting and not for fighting , he didn't kill a single person , kinshiki and momoshiki are his superiors, his byakugan is weak af so he probably didn't train or use it much....) so i don't think that he is as strong as the other otsutsukis + he has this playful attitude. But who knows how powerful he is when he gets serious. I wanted to see more of his abilities and his full power . It seems like they're saving that for another arc when he fight a worthy oppenent

_MushiRock11_ said:

His chakra stealing attack didn't kill anyone so far (mitsuki,sasuke,gaara....) so why do you want it to kill temari and shikadai?
As for kankuro it was obvious that he is alive , he wouldn't die just from that. I wish that he used sasori and more of his puppets in that fight , it was a wasted potential :/

Urashiki is damn weak, how can a bunch of kids do him a tough time after he was able kick Gaara's ass! Judging by that facial expression I would say he was serious about the whole thing and was going all out. I would say Boruto's eye played a part in the strategy of them being able to hold it off against him. After Urashiki saw Boruto's eye, he got shocked and fought earnestly. So I wouldn't say he didn't take them seriously, he lost because he lost and that's all.

Well, I can't say I'm fully convinced on this. Moreover, he saw Boruto's Jougan eye so it's not like he completely dropped his guard or anything like that. Also, there's no denying that the exhaustion of the two could've been heavily influenced by the long eventful mission too.

Oh, that's a good point you mention regarding his lack of offensive fighting abilities but well he went up against two Kages earlier in the show during the Momoshiki Arc and seemingly was on the offensive for the most bit so that's another ironic feature. Also, it's amazing why he wouldn't kill his opponents after draining their chakra out. Maybe it's his attitude as you say but as things stand, I'm half-half on this.

Well, I feel the sentiment too but there are rumours of the creator of Naruto supervising so hopefully that'll somehow do the trick. Besides, we all want to see Boruto experience Naruto's childhood firsthand and there isn't going to be a better opportunity than this I rekon.

I heard that it is originally kishimoto's idea but we don't know how the studio will execute it , this arc's story is so delicate ! I also hope that it has nothing to do with a time machine because it will be so ridiculous
I never imagined that boruto will meet his dad as a child xD this is interesting and a good way to celebrate the 20th anniversary
Maybe it would be better if they made a movie or two movies about this story instead of anime arc because i don't see how it can fit in the anime. Let's hope that it will be good and nostalgic

Yeah, a movie or two really sounds like a much better idea and it is indeed a fine way to celebrate the 20th anniversary! Time Machine and the sort does indeed sound ridiculous but I really can't see it happening any other way other than maybe Boruto thrown off into an alternate world or something along those lines.

So, does it throw anyone else off that Boruto's been using a lot of regular Rasengans lately?

What happened to his Vanishing Rasengan?

I was wondering that too but I honestly can't remember if they addressed that in the show already, if he just phased out of it with time/practice, or if it's just a continuity problem.

Power scaling feels off - even with Boruto's eye power. The only thing I can really give this episode is that it probably had the most articulate fight in the whole arc, and it wasn't even anything notable, so that's not really saying much.

I expressed this before so many times, but come on, two genins can't possibly even touch a demi-God like figure like this Otsutsuki, then alone corner him whilst he was using a feeling Rinne Sharingan. This is exactly what creating a crappy power scale. And for a show centered about action and fights, it might end up being its demise. Looking at you, Bleach.
I like the teases though. We need more of this Jougan eye, every Otsutsuki thus far acknowledged it as a troublesome eye, I wonder. Boruto seems to either detected the faintest sense of chakra or simply look into the future with the Jougan, only time can tell.

power levels are really broken!
how the hell is Urashiki Ootsutsuki getting worked-up and a bit of beaten-up versus Boruto and Shinki while Urashiki can handle himself one-on-one versus the almighty 2nd strongest in the naruverse Sasuke!?!?
5/5.

So the Urashiki arc is over. Thank lord they didn't nerfed him too much. The arc was have been meh, looks like it's not over yet, but at least we saw the jougan and about time another person is aware of his jougan (beside his deceased enemies).

Hard to believe Sasuke is out of chakra. If I am not wrong he used his Rinnegan to travel to more than one dimension without being out of chakra. Hard to believe a superior ninja run out of chakra that fast (from the amount of fighting we saw). But this is coming from Pierrot, so I am not surprised. ^^

Urashiki seems like a character who just has no skill, he has strong abilities and weapons that work well against strong opponents, but he's not a ninja, he is barely a fighter at all.

A sort of rich kid playing against all the other kids on the playground, he can have his butlers snipe the adults for an easy win in a sport but if the butler doesn't feel like shooting a kid, he can't do shit to them.

Buen episodio y cierre del arco (si es que es un arco), ahora sabemos un poquito mas de lo que tiene boruto y una de las habilidades que tiene que de hecho fue predecible por lo menos para mi y Me gusto que boruto se metio en la cabeza de shinki por asi decirlo, pero no lo cambio por completo.
