| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hmm, new OP song. Not bad I guess. Personally, I liked the previous one better. Despite how lighthearted this episode is, there's some dark background storytelling while they were playing cards. The Hidden Mist village's violent past is no secret but still a reality that its people had to live with. Felt like a transition episode. I also found it amusing how easily Boruto and his friends fought off those bullies. Chojuro has became such a mature guy over these years. What a cliffhanger D: |

| Those Genin were weak af! I didn’t expect Kagura to ha w a violent past. That ending definitely took me by surprise! I can’t blame him for doubting that they were genin.  |
 |
| Wait, how old was Yagura when he died? I mean he look preeetty young but he somehow have a grandson lol. |
 |
| I really, really like the new opening. New ending tho :() It's so carefree, and very catchy.  Boruto's teenager was so cool |
| eeehh. that was alright but its kinda dead again when it comes to the fight scenes; 'cause no body will fight with the fear of death in this... i keep thinkin' about how this early one there was zabuza and haku being introduced as a first major villain (though it was short lived.) the new OP and ED was alright, something new to listen to. the men are usually the ones that get fat in old age yet kakashi's genrationn looks so much younger in comparison to anko etc T-T T-T |

| New OP and ED are ok, I liked the previous ones better. I feel like the visuals in this new OP (especially the battle parts) don't match with the sound of the song. As expected, Kagura is related to Yagura. Looks like he has a dark past that he's been repressing. That ambush by Kagura's old friend was quite sad, as they were defeated very easily, and the ending of the episode was pretty ominous. Shizuma has no problem killing off his own men, and I look forward to seeing his combat capabilities. Also, I feel like Chojuro's voice should be deeper......

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Ok, so Kagura is Yagura's grandson, dunno how I didn't even think about it. They changed the best thing of this anime until this point, the previous ending. |
 |
| New OP is okay. The previous one is better though. Kagura really is Yagura's grandson. He has quite the dark past. His classmates are genin, but they are so weak. It's nice to see him make friends. |
 |
| So in Naruto's universe people are able to suppress their drunkenness by doing something with their chakra. It's nice to see that Boruto is using lightning techniques. I'm still quite surprised that they're already capable of doing such things, even though they're not even genins yet. |

I feel like the writers didn't think that one through. Pretty sure I remember him telling Naruto that he was an adult. I thought he was joking back then but who knew he was telling the truth. |
| Average episode. New OP song, personally I liked the previous one better. Denki is so annoying. 3/5 |
  |
| Mhmmmm I like this new OP... but i think I prefer the last one :) Good episode... question did the work the word not get out about the fourth mizukage (Yagura) being controlled by Marada... like the village is still hating on him... :( sad. ALSO WAIT WHEN DID YAGURA HAVE A SON DIDNT HE DIE WHEN HE WAS LIKE 18-19 (or did he just look way to young???? maybe he adopted a son, but then that means that Kagura would be genetically similar so why would he be crazy strong??? Idk broooo o_0 rip the ending 😔 |

| OP was meh, especially the visuals, the ED was okay. The punks beaten and boruto and the others helping kagura while playing the shinobu UNO version. |
 |
| yagura was like 15 when he died tho who'd he f to get a grandson in the end |
| Definitely liked the last OP over this one. Inojin's got the right idea, "You guys are so cliched, it's dumb." xD I wonder how long they're gonna dwell on this theme of the child is not responsible for the parent's actions. |
 |
| That new OP was too cool and I love how they included Kagura (So he IS Yagura's grandson) in it with I'm guessing Suigetsu's sword? I completely forgot who had which swords in the 7 swordsman As for the episode, the Denki rescue mission was okay....I enjoyed seeing Boruto use wind style in the way he did and I DIED OF LAUGHTER at how Mitsuki was talking shit to them......My boy was like "Are you really genin" LMFAOOOOOOO As for Kagura though, if he can learn how to control that blood lust and then use it to make himself better, he'll develop into a great shinobi one day....I kinda hope that we see him in the manga and maybe have some kind of teamup with Boruto and the gang Good episode overall, looking forward to seeing what happens next with this kid that is too similar to Kisame lol....If it's revealed that he's Kisame's kid or something I'm gonna backflip |
| Very sexy new OP and ED, although a little too happy in tone for me, I guess we're still a long way to go before entering a "pretty serious arc". This Mist nonsense will probably continue for another cour considering Kagura's in the OP. Episode itself was alright, expected the fight to be a longer but its ok those guys were fodder anyways. Looking forward to the guy from the end of the episode and his fight next week. Also this thing with Yagura sure doesn't add up, but we have no official age of Yagura at the time of his death so we don't know for sure what really went down. |
 |
| Didn't think Boruto would get dark til Boruto got way older. Rip Hachiya that's why you don't hang out with the bad crowd kids. |
| Mitsuki is HILARIOUS!!! I think he's going to be my favorite. Sarada is just as annoying as her mother was back in the day. I am really not feeling this character design and artwork. There's something weird about their eyes. Hopefully it'll improve as time goes by. |
 |
adzshamz said: I really, really like the new opening. New ending tho :() It's so carefree, and very catchy. Boruto's teenager was so cool I wonder, how old is he at that time? Is he in the same age as Naruto in Shippuuden? |
| Good episode. Mitsuki is savage when he said "Are you really Genin?" toward those weaklings xD The fight was totally one-sided. Nice to see Kagura happy when he's having fun with his new friends. So there might be some conflict in the Land of Water. Also, Kagura seemed like he joined shark face :/ I like the new OP and ED. The ED feels cheerful and somehow made me smile :P It includes all the ninja students from Boruto's class, so I think they're making the side characters more relevant. That Kakashi looking kid and the girl with a doll look very intriguing :O Anyway, good episode 5/5. |
| Liked the new OP til I found out it barely showed anything notable. Honestly not liking how much Kagura is in the OP and ED, hopefully this Mist Village stuff doesn't drag out too long. Also Boruto already using lightning? What? |
| I did not like the fact that Kagura is Yagura's grandson. I think it would be better if he were just from the same clan. And also Shizuma gills appeared!!! I loved the opening and ending songs. But I admit that I was disappointed by the opening visuals. I hate openings that show the names of the characters, it's so unnecessary. And I hoped Shizuma would be featured in it. :( Those characters that Sarada and Mitsuki appear facing in the OP are probably related to Shizuma, because they wear the same type of red outfit and their silhouettes appeared at the end of the episode. The ending visuals with all the classmates was awesome. Has anyone else noticed a girl in white that we never saw hiding behind the tree in the scene where all the girls appear? |

| I'm digging the new opening and ending songs. Loved it! Kagura is a badass I'd say! Also, Boruto using wind style and lightining style next episode! Man this kid is too OP for his age. I really like this episode. |
| these episodes feel weak. |
fairy said: yagura was like 15 when he died tho who'd he f to get a grandson in the end I could be wrong, but I think Yagura said something along the lines of "I'm older than you" when Naruto was wailing after seeing what he thought was a dead kid. I think Yagura is one of those anime characters that always looks like a kid or teen no matter how old they are. |
| Pretty mice episode, I LOVE the world building, and the backstory for Kagura. Kagura's design is also great, I'm liking him more and more and hope he overcomes his weakness. Man this episode got darker than expected with Tahno (Someone drew the similarities and I ran with it xD) killing off that annoying guy, and Kagura's past. The symbolism with the cards was also nice, the director still doing fine things here and there. |
 |
| I like the new op and ed...but the episode itself was just meh |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |
| Most thrilling uno match in ninja history. |
| A bit okayish boring episode, but at least we have a new OP & new ED also! 3/5. |
 |
| New OP and ED...guess it will be hard to a ED beat Sarada's one... Also, I was thinking that maybe the boring Denki could die, fool me... |

| Seems that the factions within the village have made their move then. The new opening sure was good though. Hmm the enemies mist techniques really made it convenient for Boruto and co to deal with them though. So Kagura's secret shame was that in the past he accidentally killed someone then. Considering what Yagura represented its no wonder Kagura will be hesitant to kill. That fight though was fun though. So while a school trip the trip also serves to allow the two villagers to have talks as well then. Its nice seeing Boruto and co bond with Kagura though. Its really sad that Kagura because of the blood lust ended up killing his only friend though. Nice to see that Kagura decided to take the test in the end though. Hmm looks like things are getting darker then it seems for this arc. |

| the smiling ninja in the shadows remenber me to Kisame Hoshigaki!!! |
| why denki to kidnap? hmm.. well it's fine. damn, kagura actually killed people and is kagura's grandson. that exposing session was exciting. inojin in pajamas is god's gift to this world. definitely miss the first opening, i loved hearing that op. |
| New OP song is boring and the visuals do not do justice to it. That Hachiya & his gang are Genins but they got their asses handed to them by kids and worst of all eaten at their own game. It seems like there is feud between the Land of Water and the Hidden Mist, I hope they do clash to give this series something. It also seems like Kagura has changed thanks to Boruto and his friend. |

| I expect more of Mitsuki action, I'm dissapointed. |
| Half of this episode was ninjas playing card game... that's exciting @_@ Any chances this arc will be getting any better? New opening is pretty cool, I guess soon main characters will become genins huh... They didn't even spend that much time in Academy yet, but sure >D Ending is okay I guess, but I enjoyed the previous ones better. |
  |
| Yagura's grandson, how old was he during the world war ... I didnt even know he had a son, let alone his son having a kid. - Anyway let's just accept this fact I guess. |
 |
| Hmm.... I don't think him being Yagura's grandson had anything to do with him being psychopath. I mean, Yagura himself was controlled by Obito, hence the blood mist era. |
 |
| New OP is nice. New ED is okay. Oho, I see Boruto values their field trip to Hidden Mist more than the safety of his friend. I'm glad to see his heart is in the right place. He's truly the greatest of friends. But then again, those guys were so incompetent, that maybe I can't blame him for not taking the threat seriously. |
