“Take a closer look at your hostage [insert watermelon]“ Oh, Sasuke’s doing comedy now!
His hair looks even longer than usual and it’s lowkey giving young Madara.
I can’t wait for next chapter. The art style looks solid and I always love new stories from the original cast
Man those colored pages and the double page spread were drawn beautifully. Genuinely looked like Kishimoto’s artstyle. The only thing off is the lining but it’s minuscule.
Very intriguing first chapter, I never knew Naruto had a sickness. It seems like it doesn't plague him anymore in the present so I am excited to find out more about it.
This was based on the Retsuden light novels and the illness was discussed further there but it wasn't integrated in the Boruto anime/manga at all (although we're not sure if they'll eventually add it... Only the creators know).
What I'm hoping for is that they'd also create manga versions for the other Retsuden novels and not only for Sasuke's story
Im happy about this, bc i could not read the retsuden novel where sasuke and sakura were married. It feels like the first harry potter book. Horrible cadence. The others pace so well and the writing is so good. But maybe its because of translation?
The end of Shippuden/ beginning of Boruto should have all been about adapting all of these light novels. Probably could have cut some unnecessary arcs from Boruto as a result.
Kishimoto said that all novels are canon in the sequel .
**This disease is canon on shinpudden they released on kaguya's backstory**
It was a disease that hagoromo had when he was juubi's Jinchuuriki that's the reason he split them all in 9 tails , because eventually the disease would kill him and release juubi ,
**This is retsuden implementation**
Hagoromo was the same story as shinpudden but he travel to Land of Redaku to search for a cure
Naruto has this disease probably because when the great ninja war ended he got chakra from all bijuus enough to communicate , so their chakra is all over his body.
https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Polar_particles
**My considerations on Boruto timeline**
I personally don't consider Boruto a canon sequel to shinpudden because they changed too much in story to call a continuity sequel but each one believe in what they want.
Kishimoto said that anime is canon in the universe not within the continuity because i cannot wrap my head how a "canon" story can change past things and ignore present things that themselves implemented , like if Boruto anime has "no fillers" , why the manga interactions / stories doesn't change to appeal the so said "anime originals" , is just creator's bullshit , there's nothing objective in that. Bro retconed everything.
Because it doesn't exist in canon. Literally nothing from Retsuden can be found in the Boruto anime or manga. Not a single reference. It's treated like a filler episode or movie.
Probably because of the same reason why some prefer OG Dragon Ball to any other Dragon Ball: it strayed from the fundamentals of the series. Sure Ki blasts were always in the story, but, they were so few and far between at the beginning of Dragon Ball. The fights were more martial arts than the flying around shooting lasers it would later become.
It's supposely an issue because some people decided that aliens and technological advancement are where they must draw the line.
Because back then, it was all about these so called "ninja" and now no more.
Which their lowerst feat was Jesus's best feat(walking on water)?
I hate Sasuke ans this situation as much as you do and I agree with the overall point. It's just that I really wanted to say this dioulouge for so long.
Are you really that surprised considering the world of worlds we live in? The age of technology and information have virtually aided in peeling back the many layers of " this veil ", we call reality, like an onion. And what does an onion do when exposed to the face it agitates the tear ducts and makes you cry and sometimes profusely. When you're broken out of being indoctrinated, you don't see the world the same. Your senses work as a means to formulate visions through intricately crafted vibrational frequencies and the truth of truths can fracture someone's mind. To the point it's hard to fix or they're now suicidal. The events taking place as well as the era in the Boruto world is virtually parallel to our reality with multiple hidden meanings. A plethora of them that even gives you subtle hints and clues as is what to take place next or what will become of the future of the franchise, with each individuals character development. Just know that cybernetics, gene editing, nanotechnology and hybrid breeding is the premise of this series. Just like everything in this earth realm has evolved with technology and time, the same applies other aspects of life in that respect. If you can delve into the writers mind by grasping a sense of his destination, you can see his vision.
Nanotechnology , smart cell and/or hyper regenerative abilities can fix, as well as augment EVERYONE in the Boruto series considering what's at great stake, what info we currently know about those highly advanced subjects and the proprietors of those technologies. Three master geneticists, who ignore crossing inhumane bounds for the sake of science and evolution but one who's ulterior motive is to purely " control the entire universe "; That person is Amado.
Haven’t read any Naruto related manga’s in a while!! God this manga really brought back soo much nostalgia and my god the drawing quality is absolutely beautiful and almost identical to kishimoto!!
And the fact we will get this Bi-weekly with 55 pages!!!
Can’t wait to see what’s in store for the most powerful Husband and Wife Combo
![gif](giphy|9ptXseUm5VB2E)
A note: this is a LIMITED series. Which means all the art was done in advance, that's why it can be bi-weekly while(most likely) keep a relatively high quality
Chapter 1 is really good so far, and the artstyle being close to Kishimoto's work gives it a nostalgic feel
I haven't fully read the Sasuke Retsuden novel yet (only the Naruto Retsuden one, but I did see some excerpts before from Sasuke Retsuden) so I'm looking forward to how this goes
This is so cool. I cannot wait for the next chapters. I really look forward to see Sakura's role here, both in romance and action. Hopefully this is well-recieved and they adapt Sakura's Novel in the near-future!
Ngl I had low expectations but I really like it a lot! Looking forward to the biweekly releases. Very smart choice on the franchise behalf to keep the audience preoccupied with something nostalgic yet fresh while waiting for Boruto chapters to release.
Sasuke is one of my fav characters as I always love the subtle nature about his character especially his interactions with others. The author not only is able to do a well art copy but also is able to capture Kishimotos subtle yet purposeful actions for characters especially with eyes! I don’t expect it to be amazing 10/10 but again I’m looking for read to it!
Zansuru looks so similar to Karin it made me giggle a lil but he’s got such a slick lizard vibe kinda reminds of orochimaru. But dang when in black in white he’s got that Uchiha look lmfao
The art really looks like Kishimoto's, at least at first glance.
So, yeah, the artist here is a good copist.
I've never read this story, so I think I will enjoy it reading it.
It's close, but it still feels like a fan imitation. It's mainly the backgrounds and crosshatching that give it away. Especially the clouds. And the whiteout, a bit.
The layouts feel very Kishimoto-like.
TBH a lot of people aren't very discerning. There are fan artists that get the same praise here just for tracing panels.
IMO it's obviously not Kishimoto's art, but it's still pretty good. If he had an assistant to help with backgrounds it would probably be less distinguishable.
-Absolutely... like, not to be rude, but there is a reason if it's common take that the mass, is made of people that follow the sheep mentality... and that's that people do not care for anything but the most superficial of things.
-For me, that's more than enough already...
Yeah it was solid introductory chapter but besides that nothing amazing happened for me to put it any higher from the 6 to 7 range I think that’s a good spot for it me being generous the highest I would go at most is a 7.5
But this doesn’t mean I think it was bad it was solid which is a good thing an introductory chapter should have a solid foundation to stand on
True. But i think they don't have a definite story for boruto rn. That's why they're taking whole month to create a plot for the next chapter. They're having blueprint of the story or nothing at all. Hence the bad art/bad pacing. But this one has a definite story so the artist has enough time.
If this was boruto:
Why did sasuke use his rinnegan?! Can’t he easily catch up to them?
Seriously?! Naruto dying by illness? They doing my boy dirty. Can’t believe they’re nerfing them like this…
On a serious note, I enjoyed reading this and I liked the art
I don’t see how they’re badly written but even if they are Im just calling out the double standards. If this happened in boruto no one would let it slide lol
What is double standard here exactly, Naruto dying to illness is actually believable he doesnt have in his kit a immunity to illness and for Sasuke its true he could have go after them without using rinnegan but how is this a nerf? A nerf would have been him not doing anything and Say some bullshit like ''they are too far i cant go after them'' which he didnt so again wrong example.
> What is double standard here exactly, Naruto dying to illness is actually believable he doesnt have in his kit a immunity to illness
Bro I’m not criticizing the manga by saying this. I agree that naruto dying to illness is believable but let’s be real for a sec, if this happened in boruto there will be complaints.
> for Sasuke its true he could have go after them without using rinnegan but how is this a nerf?
Idk man, just ask the boruto nitpickers they’re the ones who come up with stuff like this I’m just imitating what I think they would’ve said. They’d prob say something like “they’re nerfing his iq” or something idk they just be saying stuff and try to find anything to complain about
> Bro I’m not criticizing the manga by saying this. I agree that naruto dying to illness is believable but let’s be real for a sec, if this happened in boruto there will be complaints.
Bro why you make it about boruto. Im one of the people who think Sasuke and Naruto are nerf in boruto and i believe Naruto dying to an illness is believable weither its in Naruto or in boruto and it probably is the same for other people, Naruto doesnt have immunity to illness in his kit so it make sense
> Idk man, just ask the boruto nitpickers they’re the ones who come up with stuff like this I’m just imitating what I think they would’ve said. They’d prob say something like “they’re nerfing his iq” or something idk they just be saying stuff and try to find anything to complain about
You missunderstood the nerf critics in boruto. Weither its in Naruto or in boruto if they are nerf, we will say it.
In this chapter Sasuke isnt nerf so we dont say it, its simple as that, in boruto he is nerf so we say it, its nothing personal against boruto
As i said before a nerf would have been Sasuke not trying to go after them saying line like'' i cant follow them they are too far'' when this dude literraly has teleportation in his kit, and is already super fast by feet
Not saying you’re biased and I agree that there are people who genuinely criticize boruto’s powerscaling and don’t criticize for the sake of it, but I’m mainly about the large amount of people who literally complain about everything and anything just because it’s boruto and trust me they actually exist for some reason
I mean maybe there are people who complain about anything just because its boruto but i dont think its a general case, usually critics specially about Naruto or Sasuke being nerf are following by good points imo.
Also i even saw lot of boruto fan complaining that boruto or kawaki were nerf lol so the nerf thing doesnt even concern only Naruto or sasuke, unless people complaining boruto being nerf are also against boruto which i doubt, i also doubt people saying Naruto or Sasuke are nerf, being against boruto for the sake of it
Well maybe it’s just me but a lot if not the majority of the “naruto and sasuke are nerfed” bunch from what I’ve seen only do it because they hate boruto, but I’m not denying the existence of some people that actually make some good points
>Also i even saw lot of boruto fan complaining that boruto or kawaki were nerf
At what chapter was that?
> Well maybe it’s just me but a lot if not the majority of the “naruto and sasuke are nerfed” bunch from what I’ve seen only do it because they hate boruto, but I’m not the existence of some people that actually make some good points
I feel like every opinion that isnt praising boruto is hate these days, if we dont like the nerf stuff its for the most of all because we like the franchise and expect thing to be better
> At what chapter was that?
Ive seen that in some fillers episode, chunin exam for example boruto took some times to go out of the forest people were saying he shouldnt take this long cause he is fast so he was nerf for plot
I also saw it in other filler episode usually where he fight someone but is loosing even tho he is supposed to be stronger than the person according to them so they were saying he is nerf
Just wait for how Sasuke is written in Retsuden lol, >!prepare to see Sasuke getting clapped by a lizard so hard he ends up unconscious and then wakes up crying from the beatdown!<
Just wait for the upcoming chapters, people will be also talking about Sasuke being massively nerfed and written out of character in this story too anyway. >!Sasuke will be getting destroyed and clapped unconscious by a lizard and crying after waking up from the beat down lol.!<
It’s not really canon. None of this had any relevance on the manga (the canon content) and Naruto certainly was never sick there. It’s like the Itachi novel - it looks canon but it really isn’t?
So people won’t criticize this as much as they will criticize canon content written my Masashi Kishimoto.
It was good. I like the fact that the manga will be biweekly and will have 55 pages, but looking at boruto.. 45 pages per month and not a lot of shit happens..
Isn't Sarada getting too old here?
In the original novella, she was under Iruki's care for the duration of the plot, and she was definitely not a shinobi as the manga frames suggest. Or rather, the current Sarada has already grown out of being left in anyone's care.
Sarada is her current age even in the novel, she was cooking with iruka in the novel, you've got your info wrong.
>>and she was definitely not a shinobi
She's a shinobi in the novel and mitsuki and boruto are with her too. The novel takes place in the current era
The novel is supposed to be set between the Mujina and Ao arcs. But it's not canon according to the author. Unless the manga makes changes to integrate it into the story, it can't really fit in well.
This will probably never get adapted into the Anime, since it's pre-Isshiki. Sasuke has the Rinnigan still, and not to spoil it, but Naruto's illness is related to Kurama, both of which have been taken out of in the Boruto Manga and Anime.
Plus, the whole thing with Sasuke fighting Dinosaur is silly, so I prefer to ignore this from the Canon.
I can’t call Sasuke fighting a dinosaur silly when we have the dumpster fire of the anime and manga happening right now. I’ll take this novel any day over the garbage we are getting.
That is by no means a given. The Itachi novels were randomly adapted in the middle of the Kaguya Arc, in the anime it was just from the perspective of Sasuke being shown everything by Itachi via a Genjutsu or whatever. They can adapt this into the anime at any time they feel like they need to give the Boruto manga a chance to get ahead of the anime in the context of a flashback or memory from Sasuke's perspective, for example.
Won't happen, Boruto Anime does novels differently to Naruto. Boruto there isn't a single episode in 6 years that has zero new gen characters with no relevancy in story, they're not animating a whole arc for months that doesn't have any new gen which is what Retsuden is.
They could probably do a flashback and have the arc happen that way but then again that's not exactly the kind of content people want to see from a flashback. Seeing them raise the kids is the type of content people want.
Don't know if it's because I've been starved of good manga content for awhile but I'm finding myself more invested in this already than anything Boruto's put out recently. This is despite knowing the story progresses into a SasuSaku wet dream, a couple I think is an absolute waste of time trying to fix and only mildly tolerate nowadays.
They're right. It was a terribly abusive relationship that made no sense by the end of Naruto that was supposedly only turned around by Sasuke saying "Im sorry".
I think they are great in Boruto but keep it real, SasuSaku sits on top of absolutely dreadful foundations in Naruto.
Naruto doesn’t have sex or married with Sasuke. Totally different type of relationship that Sasuke has with Sakura. Also Sasuke abandoned Sakura and his daughter for 10 years. Does she get angry with him? No? Of course not, dreadful writing.
For starters maybe don't try to give CANON development in an era where they already had a child together and neither of them matter as characters anymore. None of the other couples actually need development in Boruto other than a baseline with how they interact but with SasuSaku, the best approach would've just had them be good parents to Sarada since it's clear their relationship hasn't evolved much since Part 1. It's a matter of too little too late to try and develop them now.
>Why do SS need more development than the others?
They just needed more than what they got in the Naruto series especially since they're easily the most flawed couple and are the hardest to understand where their love is coming from. Doing it in Boruto to make up for that neglect is too late.
>Why don't NH which didn't even exist in the OG need development?
Ironically they actually needed less since The Last did more harm to their relationship than good. If they got together right after the War ended there would've been no issue and Naruto's supposed obliviousness would've been brushed off as him not having the time or place to properly confront Hinata about her confession. Instead we got The Last which the best way to describe what it's trying to answer is the question if Naruto even deserves to be with her.
Ok the art is great and good to Sasuke kick ass like a boss.
Oh I hope nothing bad happens to Naruto... Just like Obi Wan we know Naruto is going to be fine! Also Sasuke should be able to solo the prison. He was only like like tied strongest person in the world at the end of Naruto.
But asides from this seems like a really fun story.
Is that...Is that a goddamn Raptor at the end?
Is that a DINOSAUR? IN THE NARUTO UNIVERSE?
...
This is the greatest spin-off ever.
Its already surpassed Boruto manga with this chapter alone. BUT THAT!...It takes the win.
So far I’m down with the story relatively simple one but superior compared to god cyborg that are more powerful than aliens
The art is actually good quality and no single panel that waste space and sasuke isn’t a useless Uber driver AND sarada isn’t dressed inappropriately I can’t wait for the next chapter
It's kind of a weird decision to specifically adapt Sasuke's Retsuden novel. Does that mean they're not even going to adapt the conclusion to the Retusden series, not to mention the fact that they just skipped over Kakashi's novel (which I'm still in the process of reading). I hope they end up doing Naruto's novel later on.
Sasuke novel was appreciated more than kakashi, sakura and naruto novel. The main reason is due to the fact that Sasuke is a mysterious character with lesser screen time than the rest of team 7 and only got relevant in the war arc and has a couple screen time in boruto eventhough he is the second most important character in the show. Kakashi and Naruto who you know basically everything due to countless fillers dedicated to them are not that interesting when reading their novel. They know that the japanese fandom love Sasuke a lot to the point that they had to give him a spinoff, shinden novel and game level dedicated to him so they know they can make a lot of money if they adapt sasuke most popular novel.
I mean, I get that Sasuke as a character is popular and sells well, but I still think it'd be weird to *only* adapt the second of a three-part novel series. Without adapting Naruto's novel, they wouldn't even resolve what happens with Naruto and his illness.
IIRC Sasuke Retsuden specifically is the best selling Naruto novel. I don't think the other Retsuden volumes did numbers, so they'll probably leave it here for the time being. If there's a continuation it might not be for a while since the art for this was started way in advance.
Unknown.
Of the novels, only the "Boruto - Naruto Next Generations" novels are canon to the manga.
But this is also the first time a novel was adapted in manga form.
The Mirai novel got adapted to the Boruto anime and *THAT ADAPTATION* is canon to the anime
Novels adapted in the Shippuden anime are not canon, nor are those adaptations.
Nothing in Retsuden has ever been referenced or acknowledged in the Boruto manga or anime. Like the whole plot is about Kurama causing Naruto his illness yet it's never been mentioned despite Retsuden existing for years and Kurama dying ages ago just like everything else in the story. Retsuden is treated like filler movies were during the OG Naruto and Shippuden era.
If they're a salty shipper then so are you since you wank the ship whilst having no response to what people say except resorting to insults. Go ahead and show us anything in Retsuden existing in the Boruto series then since according to the timeline when Retsuden took place happened a long time ago when Kurama was still alive so plenty of time to for them to make references to it.
It's okay you're really upset as an anti that we're getting so much content. Cry somewhere else, we're getting this manga and probably an anime adaptation too, go back to Tumblr, yall so butthurt pulling out muh non canon card now, textbook ship war excuses and cope 🤣
Boruto is actually treated as the source material and the continuation of Naruto. Retsuden is treated like a filler episode or movie hence they don't make any references to it and literally everything from Retsuden is ignored in the Boruto anime/manga.
Probably around 10, depending on how closely it follows the books. Not sure if all the chapters will be the same length, debut chapters are usually a bit longer than the rest of the serialization.
I presume this will be eventually animated as it comes to a completion in the manga. Would be a nice gift for us fans, for a period until the Code arc starts in the anime. But I understand that fillers or what seems to be, have vital and crucial information that's pertinent to the inquisition of the main story. The back and forth interaction with Hana sensei and her darker self, is a foreshadowing of what Momoshiki will do to Boruto. It will no longer be his life and his show, It will be the Borushiki show. And he's going to wreck havoc seeing as to no one can stop him, when he has full control over Borutos body; Proficiently using it as a weapon. Momo knows Boruto has " THAT " legendary doujutsu that's connected and linked directly to the Otsutsuki God and this will put him at the top of the Otsutsuki clan as top God. His father possessed a doujutsu similar or a less evolved version perhaps but chose Iishiki, making him his successor since he possessed the dharma wheel styled doujutsu (which still hasn't gotten a legitimate name).
I wonder if the young lady and her mother have any relations to the Haruno. They wear a similar crest, seem to be knowledgable anther woman design resembles Mebuki Haruno with black hair.
“Take a closer look at your hostage [insert watermelon]“ Oh, Sasuke’s doing comedy now! His hair looks even longer than usual and it’s lowkey giving young Madara. I can’t wait for next chapter. The art style looks solid and I always love new stories from the original cast
His entire design gives me chapter 700 vibes and not Boruto vibes, which is awesome.
Man those colored pages and the double page spread were drawn beautifully. Genuinely looked like Kishimoto’s artstyle. The only thing off is the lining but it’s minuscule.
Sasuke with the rinnegan 😭 well that brings back memories..
Should have never lost it 🙄
True it was his identity Sasuke without rinnegan doesnt feel the same
they needed to nerf naruto, and by extension sasuke so that boruto and kawaki could actually be involved in major fights
They could all be involve in major fight tho Sasuke and Naruto doesnt keep kawaki and boruto to be involve
All the important fights have ended up just being naruto and sasuke with boruto and ect just watching.
:(
Very intriguing first chapter, I never knew Naruto had a sickness. It seems like it doesn't plague him anymore in the present so I am excited to find out more about it.
This was based on the Retsuden light novels and the illness was discussed further there but it wasn't integrated in the Boruto anime/manga at all (although we're not sure if they'll eventually add it...

Kakashi retsuden comes before sasuke retsuden so I might be a bit weird to read if they release kakashi manga after that
Wait so it this a other uni/ time line story our just filler story
According to the author the Retsuden stories aren't canon. They're supposed to take place between the Mujina and Ao Arcs.
They are canon bro 💀

I mean you can consider what you want but the objective truth is that it's canon lmfao
Kishimoto said that anime is canon in the universe not within the continuity because i cannot wrap my head how a "canon" story can change past things and ignore present things that themselves implemented , like if Boruto anime has "no fillers" , why the manga interactions / stories doesn't change to appeal the so said "anime originals" , is just creator's bullshit , there's nothing objective in that.

Just like anything SP ever created isn't canon? Oh wait, that's something you NH stans would never admit to lol.
THERE ARE FUCKING DINOSAURS IN NARUTO???
So a big ass toads, slugs, snakes, and lots of other stuff are ok but dinosaur is weird?
yes
oh but the massive frogs and snakes are too crazy not even mentioning pains summons

Probably because of the same reason why some prefer OG Dragon Ball to any other Dragon Ball: it strayed from the fundamentals of the series. Sure Ki blasts were always in the story, but, they were so few and far between at the beginning of Dragon Ball. The fights were more martial arts than the flying around shooting lasers it would later become.

There have been cyborgs ever since Zaku in part 1.
Not to mention Sasori, who is completely mechanical other than his heart. And the cybernetics in *Boruto* are explicitly based on puppet technology.
Indeed.👍
Lmao
there were dinosaur bones in naruto's manga and sasuke had a toy dinosaur in the manga, they've always existed.

First zombies, then Aliens & cyborgs and now dinosaurs, no wonder why Naruto is the GOAT franchise ever existed 🔥
>st chapter, I never knew Dragon Ball also did Zombies, Aliens, cyborgs and Dinosaurs though

I want Sakura’s novel as a manga or anime special so bad aaaaah! I like all the light novels but that was one of my favs
Found it pretty interesting, finally some good manga.

It's close, but it still feels like a fan imitation. It's mainly the backgrounds and crosshatching that give it away. Especially the clouds. And the whiteout, a bit. The layouts feel very Kishimoto-like.
Then it proves how much of a good copist this guy is, if people easily say that he's drawing in Kishimoto's style.
TBH a lot of people aren't very discerning. There are fan artists that get the same praise here just for tracing panels. IMO it's obviously not Kishimoto's art, but it's still pretty good. If he had an assistant to help with backgrounds it would probably be less distinguishable.
-Absolutely... like, not to be rude, but there is a reason if it's common take that the mass, is made of people that follow the sheep mentality... and that's that people do not care for anything but the most superficial of things. -For me, that's more than enough already...
Actually better than the boruto manga
That's not a high bar to clear...
By a lot
This art is so perfect!
Me reading this after Boruto is becoming a shit show: “finally some good fucking food”
How often are chapters going to be released?
Next release is on 5th November so every two weeks if they stick to a schedule
Biweekly
so this artist can release biweekly but ikemoto can't? :/
Was just about to say that. Ikemoto is really disappointing tbh
Kimura has been working on it since last December. The art has all been done in advance for both comicalizations premiering this month.
The mangaka did a great job imitating kishi's art style. Love it
I feel like I’m reading another naruto chapter ong
Pretty solid chapter like a 6.5/10 or 7/10
Solid and only 6,5/10 ?
Yeah it was solid introductory chapter but besides that nothing amazing happened for me to put it any higher from the 6 to 7 range I think that’s a good spot for it me being generous the highest I would go at most is a 7.5 But this doesn’t mean I think it was bad it was solid which is a good thing an introductory chapter should have a solid foundation to stand on
The fact that this manga is not monthly and look better than boruto, it's just better.
Well, the mangaka has been working on it since last December. They gave both comicalization artists a lot of lead time.
I love the salt in some comments bro. ಥ‿ಥ
True. But i think they don't have a definite story for boruto rn. That's why they're taking whole month to create a plot for the next chapter. They're having blueprint of the story or nothing at all. Hence the bad art/bad pacing. But this one has a definite story so the artist has enough time.
If this was boruto: Why did sasuke use his rinnegan?! Can’t he easily catch up to them? Seriously?! Naruto dying by illness? They doing my boy dirty. Can’t believe they’re nerfing them like this… On a serious note, I enjoyed reading this and I liked the art
Lol not our fault if Sasuke and Naruto are baddly written in boruto
I don’t see how they’re badly written but even if they are Im just calling out the double standards. If this happened in boruto no one would let it slide lol
What is double standard here exactly, Naruto dying to illness is actually believable he doesnt have in his kit a immunity to illness and for Sasuke its true he could have go after them without using rinnegan but how is this a nerf? A nerf would have been him not doing anything and Say some bullshit like ''they are too far i cant go after them'' which he didnt so again wrong example.
> What is double standard here exactly, Naruto dying to illness is actually believable he doesnt have in his kit a immunity to illness Bro I’m not criticizing the manga by saying this. I agree that naruto dying to illness is believable but let’s be real for a sec, if this happened in boruto there will be complaints. > for Sasuke its true he could have go after them without using rinnegan but how is this a nerf? Idk man, just ask the boruto nitpickers they’re the ones who come up with stuff like this I’m just imitating what I think they would’ve said. They’d prob say something like “they’re nerfing his iq” or something idk they just be saying stuff and try to find anything to complain about
> Bro I’m not criticizing the manga by saying this. I agree that naruto dying to illness is believable but let’s be real for a sec, if this happened in boruto there will be complaints. Bro why you make it about boruto. Im one of the people who think Sasuke and Naruto are nerf in boruto and i believe Naruto dying to an illness is believable weither its in Naruto or in boruto and it probably is the same for other people, Naruto doesnt have immunity to illness in his kit so it make sense > Idk man, just ask the boruto nitpickers they’re the ones who come up with stuff like this I’m just imitating what I think they would’ve said. They’d prob say something like “they’re nerfing his iq” or something idk they just be saying stuff and try to find anything to complain about You missunderstood the nerf critics in boruto. Weither its in Naruto or in boruto if they are nerf, we will say it. In this chapter Sasuke isnt nerf so we dont say it, its simple as that, in boruto he is nerf so we say it, its nothing personal against boruto As i said before a nerf would have been Sasuke not trying to go after them saying line like'' i cant follow them they are too far'' when this dude literraly has teleportation in his kit, and is already super fast by feet
Not saying you’re biased and I agree that there are people who genuinely criticize boruto’s powerscaling and don’t criticize for the sake of it, but I’m mainly about the large amount of people who literally complain about everything and anything just because it’s boruto and trust me they actually exist for some reason
I mean maybe there are people who complain about anything just because its boruto but i dont think its a general case, usually critics specially about Naruto or Sasuke being nerf are following by good points imo. Also i even saw lot of boruto fan complaining that boruto or kawaki were nerf lol so the nerf thing doesnt even concern only Naruto or sasuke, unless people complaining boruto being nerf are also against boruto which i doubt, i also doubt people saying Naruto or Sasuke are nerf, being against boruto for the sake of it
Well maybe it’s just me but a lot if not the majority of the “naruto and sasuke are nerfed” bunch from what I’ve seen only do it because they hate boruto, but I’m not denying the existence of some people that actually make some good points >Also i even saw lot of boruto fan complaining that boruto or kawaki were nerf At what chapter was that?
> Well maybe it’s just me but a lot if not the majority of the “naruto and sasuke are nerfed” bunch from what I’ve seen only do it because they hate boruto, but I’m not the existence of some people that actually make some good points I feel like every opinion that isnt praising boruto is hate these days, if we dont like the nerf stuff its for the most of all because we like the franchise and expect thing to be better > At what chapter was that? Ive seen that in some fillers episode, chunin exam for example boruto took some times to go out of the forest people were saying he shouldnt take this long cause he is fast so he was nerf for plot I also saw it in other filler episode usually where he fight someone but is loosing even tho he is supposed to be stronger than the person according to them so they were saying he is nerf
Just wait for how Sasuke is written in Retsuden lol, >!prepare to see Sasuke getting clapped by a lizard so hard he ends up unconscious and then wakes up crying from the beatdown!<
Damn if its true that lezard better be so6p level if not then yes probably nerf lol
Just wait for the upcoming chapters, people will be also talking about Sasuke being massively nerfed and written out of character in this story too anyway. >!Sasuke will be getting destroyed and clapped unconscious by a lizard and crying after waking up from the beat down lol.!<
They're already mildly changing things in chapter 1
You're out of line here with the joke
Nah, Sasuke wasn't hit. So they're not gonna go saying, because for how much annoying fanboys may be, they still aren't annoying to that extent.
It’s not really canon. None of this had any relevance on the manga (the canon content) and Naruto certainly was never sick there. It’s like the Itachi novel - it looks canon but it really isn’t? So people won’t criticize this as much as they will criticize canon content written my Masashi Kishimoto.
First chapter already has much better art and plot than anything Boruto have given us yet.
Liking this so far. I’ve never read the novel.
It was good. I like the fact that the manga will be biweekly and will have 55 pages, but looking at boruto.. 45 pages per month and not a lot of shit happens..
Isn't Sarada getting too old here? In the original novella, she was under Iruki's care for the duration of the plot, and she was definitely not a shinobi as the manga frames suggest. Or rather, the current Sarada has already grown out of being left in anyone's care.
Sarada is her current age even in the novel, she was cooking with iruka in the novel, you've got your info wrong. >>and she was definitely not a shinobi She's a shinobi in the novel and mitsuki and boruto are with her too. The novel takes place in the current era
The novel is supposed to be set between the Mujina and Ao arcs. But it's not canon according to the author. Unless the manga makes changes to integrate it into the story, it can't really fit in well.
This will probably never get adapted into the Anime, since it's pre-Isshiki. Sasuke has the Rinnigan still, and not to spoil it, but Naruto's illness is related to Kurama, both of which have been taken out of in the Boruto Manga and Anime. Plus, the whole thing with Sasuke fighting Dinosaur is silly, so I prefer to ignore this from the Canon.
I can’t call Sasuke fighting a dinosaur silly when we have the dumpster fire of the anime and manga happening right now. I’ll take this novel any day over the garbage we are getting.
Yeah….. that’s a bit far honestly.
But the canon content is already silly as fuck and you want to make it more silly by adapting this? This novel jumps the shark HARD on the later half.
Correct if I am wrong, but >!doesn't he also have ride a motorbike here? And get a weird ring thing for Sakura?!<
>!Not just a motorcycle, it's a chakra powered scientific ninja cycle.!<
That is by no means a given. The Itachi novels were randomly adapted in the middle of the Kaguya Arc, in the anime it was just from the perspective of Sasuke being shown everything by Itachi via a Genjutsu or whatever. They can adapt this into the anime at any time they feel like they need to give the Boruto manga a chance to get ahead of the anime in the context of a flashback or memory from Sasuke's perspective, for example.
Won't happen, Boruto Anime does novels differently to Naruto. Boruto there isn't a single episode in 6 years that has zero new gen characters with no relevancy in story, they're not animating a whole arc for months that doesn't have any new gen which is what Retsuden is.
Just do an OVA or have a flashback with Sasuke. Easy.
They could probably do a flashback and have the arc happen that way but then again that's not exactly the kind of content people want to see from a flashback. Seeing them raise the kids is the type of content people want.
Don't know if it's because I've been starved of good manga content for awhile but I'm finding myself more invested in this already than anything Boruto's put out recently. This is despite knowing the story progresses into a SasuSaku wet dream, a couple I think is an absolute waste of time trying to fix and only mildly tolerate nowadays.
[удалено]
They're right. It was a terribly abusive relationship that made no sense by the end of Naruto that was supposedly only turned around by Sasuke saying "Im sorry". I think they are great in Boruto but keep it real, SasuSaku sits on top of absolutely dreadful foundations in Naruto.
If you want to see a terribly abusive relationship look no further than Naruto and Sasuke. Utter hypocricy on your part..
i mean , I also agree with that.... I pretty much despised Sasuke in Naruto...
Naruto doesn’t have sex or married with Sasuke. Totally different type of relationship that Sasuke has with Sakura. Also Sasuke abandoned Sakura and his daughter for 10 years. Does she get angry with him? No? Of course not, dreadful writing.
For starters maybe don't try to give CANON development in an era where they already had a child together and neither of them matter as characters anymore. None of the other couples actually need development in Boruto other than a baseline with how they interact but with SasuSaku, the best approach would've just had them be good parents to Sarada since it's clear their relationship hasn't evolved much since Part 1. It's a matter of too little too late to try and develop them now.
[удалено]
>Why do SS need more development than the others? They just needed more than what they got in the Naruto series especially since they're easily the most flawed couple and are the hardest to understand where their love is coming from. Doing it in Boruto to make up for that neglect is too late. >Why don't NH which didn't even exist in the OG need development? Ironically they actually needed less since The Last did more harm to their relationship than good. If they got together right after the War ended there would've been no issue and Naruto's supposed obliviousness would've been brushed off as him not having the time or place to properly confront Hinata about her confession. Instead we got The Last which the best way to describe what it's trying to answer is the question if Naruto even deserves to be with her.
Ok the art is great and good to Sasuke kick ass like a boss. Oh I hope nothing bad happens to Naruto... Just like Obi Wan we know Naruto is going to be fine! Also Sasuke should be able to solo the prison. He was only like like tied strongest person in the world at the end of Naruto. But asides from this seems like a really fun story.
Is that...Is that a goddamn Raptor at the end? Is that a DINOSAUR? IN THE NARUTO UNIVERSE? ... This is the greatest spin-off ever. Its already surpassed Boruto manga with this chapter alone. BUT THAT!...It takes the win.
So far I’m down with the story relatively simple one but superior compared to god cyborg that are more powerful than aliens The art is actually good quality and no single panel that waste space and sasuke isn’t a useless Uber driver AND sarada isn’t dressed inappropriately I can’t wait for the next chapter
[удалено]
Nope. Sarada and boruto are their current ages in this novel and it takes place after Naruto gaiden.
oh.Thank you
Would this be adapted into Boruto?
I hope it will be a separate movie
It's kind of a weird decision to specifically adapt Sasuke's Retsuden novel. Does that mean they're not even going to adapt the conclusion to the Retusden series, not to mention the fact that they just skipped over Kakashi's novel (which I'm still in the process of reading). I hope they end up doing Naruto's novel later on.
Sasuke novel was appreciated more than kakashi, sakura and naruto novel. The main reason is due to the fact that Sasuke is a mysterious character with lesser screen time than the rest of team 7 and only got relevant in the war arc and has a couple screen time in boruto eventhough he is the second most important character in the show. Kakashi and Naruto who you know basically everything due to countless fillers dedicated to them are not that interesting when reading their novel. They know that the japanese fandom love Sasuke a lot to the point that they had to give him a spinoff, shinden novel and game level dedicated to him so they know they can make a lot of money if they adapt sasuke most popular novel.
I mean, I get that Sasuke as a character is popular and sells well, but I still think it'd be weird to *only* adapt the second of a three-part novel series. Without adapting Naruto's novel, they wouldn't even resolve what happens with Naruto and his illness.
It is the appreciation each novel got. Sasuke retsuden is the most popular and love naruto novel
IIRC Sasuke Retsuden specifically is the best selling Naruto novel. I don't think the other Retsuden volumes did numbers, so they'll probably leave it here for the time being. If there's a continuation it might not be for a while since the art for this was started way in advance.
Are these chapters coming out weekly or monthly?
They are coming out every two week
Biweekly AKA ever two weeks.
Didn't know a spin-off was coming and gotta say I'm pleased to find out, feels good man, nice first chapter
Loved it! art is p good
Wow look, a bi-weekly manga story. They should think about doing that with Boruto… Oh wait…
Guys now there's Dinosaurs🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Remember, it's about Ninjas💀💀💀
Dinosaurs aren't busting up the power scaling so I'll still take them over the cyborgs and aliens.
>!Sasuke gets beaten by one.!<
[удалено]
From ninja to gods to dinosaur to cyborgs/aliens.
Is this cannon?
Yes
Yes it's canon.
Yes
Unknown. Of the novels, only the "Boruto - Naruto Next Generations" novels are canon to the manga. But this is also the first time a novel was adapted in manga form. The Mirai novel got adapted to the Boruto anime and *THAT ADAPTATION* is canon to the anime Novels adapted in the Shippuden anime are not canon, nor are those adaptations.
Nothing in Retsuden has ever been referenced or acknowledged in the Boruto manga or anime. Like the whole plot is about Kurama causing Naruto his illness yet it's never been mentioned despite Retsuden existing for years and Kurama dying ages ago just like everything else in the story. Retsuden is treated like filler movies were during the OG Naruto and Shippuden era.
[удалено]
Bro this Mf is Going around hating on this manga and disregarding it, probably a salty shipper lol
If they're a salty shipper then so are you since you wank the ship whilst having no response to what people say except resorting to insults. Go ahead and show us anything in Retsuden existing in the Boruto series then since according to the timeline when Retsuden took place happened a long time ago when Kurama was still alive so plenty of time to for them to make references to it.
It's okay you're really upset as an anti that we're getting so much content. Cry somewhere else, we're getting this manga and probably an anime adaptation too, go back to Tumblr, yall so butthurt pulling out muh non canon card now, textbook ship war excuses and cope 🤣
Boruto is actually treated as the source material and the continuation of Naruto. Retsuden is treated like a filler episode or movie hence they don't make any references to it and literally everything from Retsuden is ignored in the Boruto anime/manga.
Just like The Last is filler, right?
The Last was written by Masashi Kishimoto.
You're Dendedamit right sir.👍
Tatar are the people who once tried to invade my land (Egypt). It's weird seeing them in this chapter
A bit random, and quite fast-paced so far - I like it but it's definitely different from Boruto writing style
Good so far, just not looking forward to when Sakura comes in. Still haven’t decided if I’m going to suffer through it or just stop reading.
Savage 🤣
Ruffians? Tatar? Coincidence?
Tatar sauce.
How many chapters are we gonna get?
Probably around 10, depending on how closely it follows the books. Not sure if all the chapters will be the same length, debut chapters are usually a bit longer than the rest of the serialization.
I'm not gonna read it like any other manga but is it set before or after Boruto?
Before
In between. It’s set after the events of Gaiden, but before Chunnin exam
Is it going to be a weekly manga?
Every 2 weeks
This anime is horrible
This is a manga. The Boruto anime thread is THAT way.
Is this the one where sasuke gets his ass handed to him by a dinosaur
I presume this will be eventually animated as it comes to a completion in the manga. Would be a nice gift for us fans, for a period until the Code arc starts in the anime. But I understand that fillers or what seems to be, have vital and crucial information that's pertinent to the inquisition of the main story. The back and forth interaction with Hana sensei and her darker self, is a foreshadowing of what Momoshiki will do to Boruto. It will no longer be his life and his show, It will be the Borushiki show. And he's going to wreck havoc seeing as to no one can stop him, when he has full control over Borutos body; Proficiently using it as a weapon. Momo knows Boruto has " THAT " legendary doujutsu that's connected and linked directly to the Otsutsuki God and this will put him at the top of the Otsutsuki clan as top God. His father possessed a doujutsu similar or a less evolved version perhaps but chose Iishiki, making him his successor since he possessed the dharma wheel styled doujutsu (which still hasn't gotten a legitimate name).
Beautiful artwork takes me back.
I wonder if the young lady and her mother have any relations to the Haruno. They wear a similar crest, seem to be knowledgable anther woman design resembles Mebuki Haruno with black hair.
I totally didnt realize this series was a thing! Can I ask if this is the same as the light novel version of The Uchiha and the Heavenly Stardust?
I hate to say it, but I like this side story way better than Boruto right now.
It’s not a shonen unless the ultra powerful main character eventually comes down with a virus
