So, what’s next for Boruto? The end of the episode hints that maybe this isn’t the end of Sumire’s struggles but at least the Ghost Incidents have finally been resolved. Hopefully this moment serves as a turning point for those characters and we see more original stories from them in the future. This lesson is delivered in a slightly strange way (Nue refusing to kill his “mother”, Sumire) but it is a good mission statement for the show, which has often reduced its new cast to copies of their parents. More important is the overall message: that children need not follow the same path as their parents. This is a minor complaint, but as someone who preferred the Naruto anime over the manga because of the great animation, I hope it improves as the show goes on. The animation in these scenes is also of a much higher quality, making the dip in quality once the talking resumes even more jarring (weird eyes continue to be an issue).

The preceding combat scenes (especially the one between Mitsuki and Simure) continue to uphold the high quality the Naruto series is known for, albeit in short spurts. How were they pulled into an alternate dimension? Why was the Gozu Tennou broken so easily? Why did the alternate dimension collapse? How does Nue survive without the Gozu Tennou? Maybe these details were never meant to be looked at closely, but it all feels a little too convenient to let slide especially in a series like Naruto that is usually so committed to explaining itself. The story wraps up nicely, but I must admit I had some lingering confusion about the events that unfolded as a result of the Gozu Tennou.

The whole scenario feels a little too similar to the encounter from the previous episode, but seeing Sumire break free from her curse and tame Nue is a relief, and seeing Sai extend his help to her at the episode’s end gives this plotline some satisfying finality. Boruto stops Mitsuki from killing her once again, instead opting to talk her down from her plan to sacrifice herself for her father’s revenge.
Thanks to his Dojutsu, Boruto is able to quickly identify Nue’s weak point and bring him down, but still hesitates in the face of Sumire. Although it has been an uneven few months since the show’s premiere, it manages to end on a relatively high note, featuring engaging combat scenes and even a (seemingly) happy ending for the wayward Sumire.įollowing the events of the previous episode, Boruto and Mitsuki have been pulled into an alternate dimension by Sumire and her fearsome Demon Beast Nue. Boruto Uzumaki, son of Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki. Though it's still a ninja village, the number of civilians has increased and the life of the shinobi is beginning to change. Tall buildings line the streets, giant screens flash with images, and the Thunder Rail runs through the village, connecting each district together. The journey felt much longer than 14 episodes, but Boruto has finally found its way to the end of the Ghost Incidents arc. The Hidden Leaf Village has entered an era of peace and modernity.
