Cute episode. We got Kawaki and Himawari spending some time together. He's almost like a big brother to her in some ways.

Boruto and Kawaki's relationship got a bit rocky but it's ok. It's one of those days...

Cute episode ^^ Hima sneaking off to feed a wolf she named Jaggy because of the jagged ears the wolf has. Kawaki following her and then accompanying her to visit the wolf other times too. It was nice to see them spend time together~~ RIP Jaggy.

F wolf, Ok episode. I think it's filler, but it doesn't matter if I can see more of Hima (*´▽`*)

I understand Kawaki, but leaving isn't going to change anything, they'd still go after Boruto too.

Protect Himawari at all costs. And while we're at, I'm gonna need a Himawari-centered spinoff ASAP, Pierrot.

Hima and Kawaki are an unlikely duo but seeing them spend time together was nice. Kawaki got to act like another older brother for her. RIP Jaggy.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

Hima and Kawaki. Finally the sweet Naruto little girl had a good spot to shine. I feel bad for the Jaggy. He deserved more love. But, as an outcaster its just understandable and somehow opened up Kawaki's eyes. The irritating boy tried to get out. However, he forget the simple thing, Konoha never let him leave easily. Because, for sure Shikamaru already learnt from Sasuke incident in the past, right?

Next filler!

It's a great episode.

I want to Hima-chan to call Kawaki-kun onii-chan too.

Feel sad for Giza-chan. I was hoping to see it more.

I'm happy about what Shikamaru-san said to Kawaki-kun.

I'm looking forward for next episode.

i wonder if he would let him go if Kara wasn't already targetting someone else who leaves in the village ... then again, it's Naruto's wish that Kawaki stays, so maybe he would still stop him

If that's the case then, Naruto will be mad to Shikamaru. Civil war at Konoha xd

A filler episode and the preview shown was also a filler. Can't wait for the main storyline to restart.

Dont worry we're just gonna have two more anime canon eps(although they sound pretty interesting) and then it continues with adapting the manga

Really nice episode for character development to kawaki and also himawaei she looking for a wolf that was that he died.
Good that shikamaru and boruto stop kawaki from leaving konoha. He give me vibes of Sasuke a little bit.

I enjoyed this anime original episode today I’m not sure why there’s so many low scores on it. Kawaki and Himawari had some nice bonding and I really liked how Boruto and Kawaki’s confrontation went down

Y’all can’t just get all fights all the time. There has to be slow episodes that add characterisation and depth that the manga doesn’t give us. That’s what this anime original shit does n

Himwari EPISODE!

The dream Kawaki had in the beginning is interesting. Well, Himwari has been stealing food from home for a white wolf. Pretty cute, sadly he died in the end. Kawaki's dialogues were wonderful, feels like he's just talking about himself. And he probably is.

That made him almost leave the village but thanks to Boruto and Shikamaru everything went well for now.

Anime canon ep was pretty good.

They're going to wrap up the Boro arc in the following episodes.

This episode surprisingly had great emotion.

First off, Himawari has secretly been taking food from the fridge and feeding it to a wolf she calls Jaggy. She tries to keep him company as she doesn't want to see him alone. Kawaki remarked that Jaggy is similar to how he was, which also reminded me of Naruto back when he was 12 and ostracized by the entire village. That loneliness is such a heavy burden that weighs down on one's heart and soul. Unfortunately Jaggy died, but he was able to protect his pack since they were targeted due to their unique fur color.

Then Kawaki tried to leave the village so that Jigen wouldn't attack again. Shikamaru stopped him because everyone follows what the Hokage says, no matter what. Kawaki is apart of the Hidden Leaf Village, whether he likes it or not.

Great episode overall and proves that the series can still have emotional impact without any fighting.

The entire Konoha is making it harder for Kawaki to leave the village for good it is because he has gotten to close and already caring to his so called precious family!
5/5.

This is why you shouldn't skip Anime Canon Episodes.

Hikari and Kawaki moment.
Good character development Episode for Kawaki.
See, if it has a good writing, it can still be good episode without a fight all the time.
Things like this that we didn't have in the Manga because the pages are limited, so the Anime Canon Episodes are here to explore those idea and expanding it.

I always love more HImawari episodes. Unlike the manga the anime actually remembers she exists.
Though getting kinda tired of Kawaki and I want some other character focus... please.

Kawaki Uzumaki (aki aki) truly is family. His nightmares are not for himself, but for the village now. Him leaving makes perfect sense, except for reality that
1. They also want Boruto who is just like him
2. Their goal is global destruction using both of you
With this being fact, Leaf is in more danger without Kawaki there. Shikamaru seems to somewhat understand this.

Jaggy :c
