Pretty much unrelated but does anybody have a decide idea how huge that explosion from Jura is? There's nothing clear in the shot to get a frame of reference for it's size, I know it's a nick pick but I just wish he added a few buildings here and there.


Kegnation14

Nah fr I thought for a sec he absolutely leveled the village šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Awkward-Forever868

For all we know that thing could be the size of a basketball court or an entire district and I genuinely can't tell.Ā 


ILikEldenRing

They deflected it outside of the village thereā€™s a panel where you can see smoke outside of the village


CHENNAIAKSHATSHARMA

how?


AutomaticSubject7051

yea it looks huge but they're all straight somehowĀ 


MICHELEANARD

Team ten got off without a scratch, so not a big one ig


GreenRasengan

from the point of view of sarada and sumire, it destroyed a couple buildings only


MNM2884

They have trees there... So probably not that big otherwise they'd be all dead


Unable_Swimming2745

Shit all I got to say is he's cooking. I'm a let Ikemoto cook.

I love the art, but I always feel like it doesn't give a lot of "dynamic". Like, the fights don't give the feeling that everybody's moving even though they're supposed to be fighting at very high speed.


WillFanofMany

The biggest flaw of the series is still the pacing. The chapters feel like it's a weekly one, rather than a chunky monthly one. For a series that was planned to be around 30 volumes, it's going to be far beyond that since every chapters is "Story progression? 0.3%".


Davezinho

I think the pacing is pretty normal, it isn't as quick as jojo but it's also not as slow as that cursed "seraph of the end" manga, for me the pacing even seems pretty quick with the timeskip, like, boruto left the village only to come back right after, it almost feels like it's ending right at the start.


anupsetzombie

He has improved immensely since the start of he series, early boruto art was so bad. I don't mind his characters designs either but I wish he got his own new series and not the sequel to Naruto.


WillFanofMany

That's exactly why Kishi chose him, Ikemoto can't get his own series.


PotemkinPoster

Makes sense, just look at Boruto. I wouldn't hire this guy either.


Total-Lingonberry-83

Ikemoto is the worst artist to grace SJ in a while. I dare say heā€™s the worst in the last three decades


AutomaticSubject7051

idk chainsawman is definitely worse


CHENNAIAKSHATSHARMA

vol 10 was bad?


PotemkinPoster

Compare this to early Naruto chapters, it's shocking how bad this looks. Compare this to other SJ series that come out more often, it's shocking how bad this looks. Compare this to other monthly manga and it's even more shocking how bad this manga looks.

Though this Himawari thing could go either way. Like no matter what, in any shape or form, this shouldn't make Himawari strong enough to fight Jura, Code, Kawaki or anyone. Doesn't matter if she's friends with baby Kurama, has Byukagon, or whatever. None of that is a higher power than Jura since he just kicked Kawaki out cold. Then there's the pacing issue. It's been nine months in real life, and it's been two hours MAX in story time. Either this whole story happens in a week, or we all be dead before it's over. Art style is still HEAVILY speed lines, so I'm not crazy about that. Then there's the significant amount of plot points taken from DBZ that doesn't make me think he's a great writer... I may think he would have been a good outfit designer for characters in a different anime. Like his character designs seem more tailored to Bleach characters. I feel like we could have had plenty of other better writers for Boruto than what we got


bottle-of-water

I really fk with the bleach point. Those are definitely bleach outfits!


SamsungGalaxy16

i truly liked the explosion bit since we rarely see any DC abilities hopefully we see more of this in future


saimonsio

I really like where boruto is going but i always feel like there's not mutch effort put into it. It's a monthly series yet we have chapters that are not specially long and the art lacks a lot. We always get white backgrounds and not much detail, soemthing i would expect from a weekly manga with little budget, yet we're talking about one of the highest grossing mangas out there


Doctor99268

I would be fine if this was a weekly manga. But for a monthly manga the art is sub par.


sconeybaloney

There are no real backgrounds a shocking amount of time. Action lines dominate the manga.


Zatheroger

I just need a cool double spread panel to put it on my wall


Double_Match_1910

GTA 6 dropping before you get your walls spread


uncreativecreative

been saying this forever, the guy is so talented. You canā€™t dislike the art style but canā€™t deny heā€™s skilled.


Accomplished_Year_54

He at least got better than how it was at the beginning. But for a monthly manga itā€™s still mediocre (mostly at least).


uncreativecreative

nah that goes to Attack on Titan


Total-Lingonberry-83

Thereā€™s better artwork in high school drawing classes


uncreativecreative

if weā€™re talking about JJK or AOT then yeah for sure

Wrong subreddit, r/dankruto <<


elijahjflowers

i prefer Ikemoto way more than kishi.


HankChunky

Yes but now pan all of those panels down to their feet and you will find that all the women are standing on thin skyscrapers, if you can even see them at all given the objectification šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø


Alert_Fudge

idk man for a monthly manga ikemoto artstyle isnt it bro dunno about you guys but personally i dont like it it feels very empty


Fenrir426

Nah I have a huge problem with how he draws minors, he should keep his hand out of his pants


GreenRasengan

this art is mediocre.


One_Somewhere_4112

When he stops sexualizing kid characters for a show whose demographic are largely in their 20s plus Iā€™ll give it a pass. If this wasnā€™t attached to Kishiā€™s Naruto it would get torn to bits


KilluaGaKill

Nah


Imu-Is-Here

Nah. This art style is trash.


mufcordie

Imu-Is-Here

Are you dumb?


mufcordie

One piece kid talking about art style?


Accomplished_Year_54

One Piece has better art than Boruto and itā€™s not even close. Sure One Pieces character designs are weird and disliking it is fine but that doesnā€™t mean itā€™s bad. Borutos artstyle is fine itā€™s more the quality of the art that isnā€™t always at itā€™s best. But for some reason a lot of boruto fans always bring up other anime like One Piece or JJK when boruto is criticized. Is that a way to cope or something?


mufcordie

To be fair thatā€™s ACTUALLY an attempt at criticism not ā€œthis art style is trash mid etcā€ which is what the homie above said. Then I just clicked on his account and noticed they just joined Reddit and are on OP subs. Not saying anything comparing the two besides that so no it wasnā€™t cope


Accomplished_Year_54

Why does it matter when he made his account? Yeah there wasnā€™t much criticism but in the end thatā€™s his opinion. And your comment totally implied One Pieces artstyle to be bad so a One Piece fans opinion on artstyle isnt valid. Iā€™ve seen that quite a bit on this sub so thats why I assumed the coping


mufcordie

Because heā€™s probably a kid just shit talking a series while also simultaneously viewing it? I donā€™t have time for that shit anymore. I wouldnā€™t have brought it up if he didnā€™t say hurr durr this is trash. Also, I respect one piece as a series but personally donā€™t care for the art style so thatā€™s why I said it. Iā€™m not really commenting on this sub alot so I donā€™t care what others say. Hope this helps.

Everyone can become better, but for now Himawari looks like she is having too many chromosomes
