| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Watching Boruto fighting the enemy this episode was painful. The kid is clearly outclassed until Sasuke stepped in. Pretty explosive battle this episode. Jiraya working with Sasuke again is kinda strange to watch imo. It also looks like Boruto and Naruto were able to synch a powerful Wind Release: Rasengan together. |
 |
| Yeah, pretty decent arc. I enjoyed it and the final fight was a nice payoff. I'm glad the other genin didn't turn up because it would've seemed a lot lamer if they were the ones to tip the scales. I hope that the studio decides to rework the music after this arc because clearly, good music is what the series has been lacking. Everything just felt more emotional and interesting. It would be nice if this was the turning point for the show. But I'm not getting my hopes up because it will probably go back to more of the same. |
 |
| The animation for this episode was nice to see That starting scene was pretty creepy, but seeing that bird-like form was a bit disappointing in my opinion Not gonna lie, that rasengan at the end gave me goosebumps, also nice to see sasuke using some of his old techniques |
 |
| Oh dang, when the animation gets good, that's when you know things are serious. I feel like this would be the perfect time fore Jiraiya to whip out Sage mode. Oh well. Finish it with a Father-Son Kamehameha lol |
| This was simply the best arc in the series, they didn't try to force it by dragging the shit for too long. The animation was also mind blowing, kinda made my sticking around for so long in the series worthwhile. Let's hope Urashiki is done for, I'm tired of Kaguya's lineage. We need another villain who's going to carry this series through and through. I enjoyed this arc though, and hope the goodbyes in the next episode will be emotional a little. |

| It was a good end to the best arc by far, lots of references, like the naruto rage mode when Jiraiya gets hit, almost like Naruto Vs Pain, and the rasengan blast at the end haha. |
 |
| This was the second most ambitious fight in Boruto after the Naruto & Sasuke vs Momoshiki one, the rasengan soundtrack is always so touching, Urashiki's transformation looks really good and the finale was legendary with the Kirin. |

| wow! that's the Ultimate Rasengan that Naruto & Boruto pulled-off...the one that Sage Mode Jiraya used in his fight against Pain! hmmmm i feel like that was anti-climatic cuz Urashiki won't he defeated like that, no matter how strong a elemental jutsu just like Rasengan which is a Wind type element, Rinnegan eyes would just be able to absorb it just like one of the paths of pain.....this is really an asspull win... 5/5. |
 |
| So much cheesy line this episode. Jiraiya: "My rasengan is a cut above the rest. That should've done the trick." lol. When I noticed that Urashiki played around too much, I was sure he is going to lose. The only good thing from this episode is the animation. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| The Episode was Shit....... |
 |
| so they did a father-son Rasengan......AGAIN! lol |
| I found it odd that throughout this whole arc, Jiraiya never mentioned the Rinnegan when encountering Urashiki... you'd think he would recognize it due to his whole backstory with Nagato. Good job ignoring all of that. |

| oh... how I love this episode and the nostalgia at the end when the old theme played was so good. I really liked this episode. This whole arc was amazing so far, watching my boy Naruto once again as a kid. |
 |
| Fine end of the arc. This episode was way better animated than the others. |
 |
| Although I hated how weak they made Sasuke look, the animation was pretty awesome the interaction between Sasuke and young Sakura was quite sweet...wonder bout her confrontation the next episode |
| This episode had good animation after a while and the fight was pretty good too. Urashiki was finally defeated and looks like next episode will be the last of this arc. It was fun watching young Naruto and Jiraiya again. |
 |
| ngl, I didn't like Boruto to begin with, but saw time travel stuff and started watching this arc... it's like the writers knew that most old fans dislike Boruto and had to just give us old Naruto content with the original OST. I don't mind the fight sequences (they were well animated) but the general nerfing and boosting of people's power to fit the narrative was pretty lame... also I was hoping for social ramifications. C'mon, don't give me time travel shenanigans without the fallout. I'm probably gonna stop watching this after the closure ep for this arc. |
 |
| I know there's probably 20 more important questions I should be asking but why in the hell wouldn't Jiraya attempt to go into Sage mode with those 2 frogs when he's up against an enemy that's this powerful??? But whether Urashiki is really dead or not it looks like this arc has run its course. I hope we at least get to see Hinata one more time before they go back to the future. Overall I'd still say this is one of the better Boruto filler arcs. With any luck we'll get another one with Sumire soon. |
 |
| Finaly Urashiki was defeated, i hope! It was a good fight, they managed to defeat him with father-son rasengan, once again! The nerf on Sauke and Jiraya is kinda sad, but it was still good! Sasuke and Sakura's moment was weet, i am curious for her confrontation in next episode! Was really nostalgic that victory old theme, i loved it! I wonder if something will be changed when they return to present! |
 |
| Nice episode overall but man I'm really disliking the whole nerfing part. Otsutski clan used to be so strong... And nowadays they get shit on even after powering up with some insane moves... Shippuden was decent thanks to its strong villians imo but this series... shitfest honestly |
| Welp, that's the end of the best arc of the series. |
| They had a chance to redeem the show with such a good concept but.....as always they fucked it up. |
 |
| i like the idea of this arc with the timeskip back to good old Naruto, but the villain ruined it. He was so dump und boring, i really hope boruto will also have some great villains like Pain or some Akatsuki members in the future. I also have big problems with the power balance, sasuke is way too weak Boruto sometimes looks very strong and other days weak af. |
| I have mixed up feelings about this episode. It was almost a trend to have an over the top budget when the final fight that features an Otsutsuki is animated, this one had a few hights here and there, but it was way too stiff at some points, way too plastic-ky if that makes any sense. But what I'm mad about the most is how little sense those subtle things make. How can you grow an eye by eating another, and also recover the one you just ate? Why did it take a weakened Sasuke, a not so serious Jiraya, a kid Naruto and Boruto to defeat a freaking immortal God figure in the world of ninja, is probably a matter of minutes of over a couple of hours? I wish the story took itself way more seriously. |

Overall I'd still say this is one of the better Boruto filler arcs. With any luck we'll get another one with Sumire soon. Urashiki has the Rinnegan and is probably the strongest person in the world right now not counting Sasuke. Or at the very least he was smacking Jiraya around pretty easily and by all means could have killed them multiple times so I don't see why Jiraya would be holding back his trump card in that situation. I don't see why you're calling him a fodder opponent either considering he's been the main villain for a while now although I assume not for much longer. |

| I don't get what powerlevels they're using, the two guys that were working with Urashiki required full strength Naruto and Sasuke to beat and while they were using seeds to power themselves up we can't forget that Urashiki has been causing trouble to Sasuke, the second strongest ninja as far as we know, so how come "a weakened Sasuke, a not so serious Jiraya, a kid Naruto and Boruto" defeated him? Also why the heck has everyone been so lax when fighting this guy? They know the Otsutski clan are bad news so just overwhelm them, don't do whatever Sasuke was doing that lead to Urashiki gaining strength and Sasuke and others getting hurt. Shit like this is what makes this whole anime feel like a Naruto filler, no consistency with the established rules. |
| damn I can't want to see next weeks episode |
 |
| That was a nice episode, but yeah the Sasuke and Jiraya downgrades are just painful I could understand it for Sasuke since he got most of his chakra stolen by Urashiki (who was actually quite weak since he got defeated by Naruto and Boruto lol), but there's no excuse for Jiraya, he was useless during the whole fight while he should have been op Jiraya not mentionning the Rinnegan (or even the Byakugan) was also a huge plothole. It's not like these eyes are common, and highly skilled ninjas like him are perfectly aware of their existence (especially in Jiraya's case because of Nagato) I enjoy this arc however, but I really hope Sasuke and Boruto are gonna explain who they really are Most of the time, time travelling stories are taking this easy route of "not tell anyone because it could change the future". That's a shame because things would be way more interesting if they were just honest and deal with it (for example it's done really well in the TV series Dark, when time travelling characters literally don't give a damn about encountering their past/future selves, and it makes the story so much better) I would be happy if in the next episode Sasuke just removes his eyepatch to show his Rinnegan, that'd be pretty dope even though I highly doubt that I'll happen unfortunately Anyways, now I'm curious to see what the next Boruto arc will be I hope it won't continue too much longer with the Otsutsuki clan, I always find them extremely boring and bad villains. I prefered the time when Kaguya was the only Otsutsuki and not just a simple member of a clan I'm also surprised the anime didn't introduce that edgy-insufferable brat who is supposed to be Boruto's main rival. But I'm also glad it didn't, because I really don't like all this new stuff about this mysterious Boruto's eye power and that bad cliffhanger at the very beginning of the series, where Konoha is destroyed (again) |
| If nothing else, the animation was really great in this ep. Urashiki's transformation was ok, though it was half a rip off Momoshiki's transformation. What really didn't make any sense and that they just put into the ep. to make it work was odama kurama rasengan. At that time Naruto hadn't learned odama rasengan. If I am not wrong it's not before Naruto's journey with Jiraiya. But then again how much of Boruto and this arc made any sense. Sasuke was totally useless in the whole arc. Jiraiya played a minor role which was really nerfed. It's amazing how they really nerfed Sasuke. During the whole fight which probably lasted for 4-5 hours in the Naruto world he still didn't regain his powers and couldn't use his rinnegan. All in all, I am not very satisfied with that end. In fact I am pretty disappointed. I should be pissed, but aren't since I never expected more. I take what I get, and with that in mind, it was an decent end. Very mediocre, smh. |
 |
| The animation in this episode was absolutely incredible, and for that alone, I'll have to rate it a solid 5/5. I'm still blown away. |
| It was ok but it's disappointing that Urashiki lost to two kids. |
 |
| Naruto's rage was satisfying |
 |
