Welp, this episode turned into a big fight after Boruto and their trap strategy didn't work.

Sarada managed to do some good work with her Sharingan and lightning style techniques. Same with her allies. Metal Lee kicked some ass too with his taijutsu. Episode was fire, a lot better than the previous ones with the momentum imo.

I liked it because the episode shows Hebiichigo's objective but changes its objective at the last moment when hearing that the Funatos were setting a trap against Kagura and the others but they manage to come out of it fine but at the last moment Kagura is caught and killed

Yes we're still in the same arc but it seems like it's reaching its climax.
The studio generally puts a lot of its efforts and budget in the final battles when it comes to these anime canon/filler arcs so i'm expecting the next episodes to be good especially after all this buildup.

Another episode in which the scriptwriter has no idea what he is doing and if Pierrot were a serious company, they would have fired him after reading and laughing at this nonsense.

Giant water tornado, they don't use raiton.

Giant water tornado with the "blood" of 2 people... the day the imbecile who wrote this rubbish finds out that the human body is almost entirely water, he collapses. Not to mention that he could generate the water himself.

Konoha ninjas who are afraid to face 30 bald men... Mitsuki alone should be able to beat them up.

Ninjas like Mitsuki, who has snakes everywhere, being caught by 2 bald men behind some bushes to set them up.

Cliches like the tsundere that knits that curiously finds enemies telling her plan at that very moment.

And I stop counting because it was one failure after another.

So the battle has commenced. Kagura's group finish setting up the traps while Buntan and Kyoho pursue Hebiichigo. Given how great of friends they are, Buntan and Kyoho knew the exact path Hebiichigo would take to leave the village.

While Kagura's group finish setting up the ambush in the ravine, there was a Funato soldier secretly eavesdropping on them. Hebiichigo overhears Funato soldiers who talk about how they're going to ambush Kagura and the others using a game trail within the ravine, she tells Buntan and Kyoho and the three of them head off.

Kagura and Team 7 are fending off against the Funato soldiers that attack. When Kagura is about to get clapped, Buntan, Kyoho, and Hebiichigo come in at the last minute. Once Funamushi sees Kagura, he decides to jump into the fight and get revenge for what he and Boruto did to Seiren.

Eventually Funamushi uses Water Style: Furious Raging Tornado. Kagura and Team 7 are trapped with nowhere to run... but then Team 5 comes back to close off the path between Funamushi and Kagura's group. Kagura and the others head back to the village to fortify it and defend it. Everyone works to close off every source of water, so that Funamushi can't do the Furious Raging Tornado again.

Unfortunately when Funamushi shows up, he grabs two of his subordinates and takes their blood to do the jutsu. Kagura expends a lot of chakra and asks for the strength of Chojuro and Yagura to make Hiramekarei big enough to counter the tornado. He succeeds, despite being very tired afterwards.

But then the most tragic thing happens. Funamushi takes Kagura hostage and tells Boruto and the others to drop their weapons. After they comply, he goes on to stab Kagura.

I'm wondering what will happen next.

To be honest, I actually liked the animation in this episode and I thought it was decent (I got a new laptop and it has a better screen, video card, etc so I don't know if it's just that or the animation was just good in the episode).

There were some things in the episode that didn't make sense, for example, Boruto being nerfed in his own show. I mean there were so many things that Boruto could have done, for example, like the thunder style and water style combined that he used against Naruto. There were a group of enemies and no one did a splash attack, I don't even think the enemies have dodging skills like that so that's why I think that would work. This is not only Boruto I'm talking about, a lot of people could have done something that would work but this is just one.

Anyways this episode wasn't bad, it was actually the first almost decent episode there was for this arc, so I'll give it a 6.5/10.

Oh wow, this episode felt way better animated than the previous ones. I guess this means we're getting to the climax hopefully.

Welp, everyone fought together and were still unable to defeat the main enemy. Kagura probably won't die but it was nice to see Boruto get frustated like that.

Welp, despite a ridiculous way to set up the battle, and doing all the twist, then don't forget about how once again a very unenjoyable animation sequence for the heavily action packed, making this episode kinda not far from the word of bland for all the building up. Though, that's a little nice they showed to me how they finally grant my wish to see the change of form of Hiramekarei, which from the beginning i am surely awaiting him to use it properly. But, not with that end. And not with that lame way...

How naive, Kawaki said. Though, their battle were the naive one, including Kawaki himself. Sigh...

fam fillers are dumb don't think too much everything in fillers makes no sense and contradicts the series itself, i never understand why they don't hire invest in good writers for filler stories or just let kishimoto write a story for these fillers

So they invested that much in developing Kagura or the longer time now just for him to pass because of a throwaway character that should pose no threat, to begin with.

Having that Iwabe-Kyoho combo heading in your direction would be terrifying. Cool to see Metal Lee playing the floor is lava with these their faces. Kinda confused how Hibiichigo's thread worked on this open space though. There goes the 4th death fl- Eh? He actually died?! Surely they can get Hibiichigo to sew him back up right? Then again it'd be better if there was a medical ninja on the team. Maybe this will inspire someone to take up that role.
Notice: I read most manga in Japanese now so I'm not sure where you can read in English. Sorry in advance.

Hey, looked like Boruto was going to resurrect Kuraa-ma there hahaha

Hashirama, this writing drives me insane, Team 7 should each be able to solo all of them, maybe minor help for big guy.

On the bright side, look at the tasty donut!!!

Yeah when I downgraded my 8/10 to 7/10 was when I decided to try to ignore the absolutely awful writing. This episode I have 2/5. I definitely enjoy this enough, and Boruto overall enough, but doesn't change the back to back to back awful writing.
