The manga-adapted stretches and a handful of original arcs like the time-travel and Kawaki academy stories show what Boruto could be, but they’re buried under 300 episodes of formulaic, childish filler that makes the series a textbook case of a great concept ruined by execution. Less than a third...

Boruto delivers occasional decent fights and steady plot progression, but every strength is drowned by hollow side characters, cartoonish villains, and the complete demolition of ninjutsu and chakra rules that once defined Naruto. The show sidelines its legacy cast, hands god-tier victories to ac...

Actually, anime is primarily made for a Japanese audience. If a series reaches 293 episodes, it’s because it is successful and well-received in Japan. Many of the references in Naruto and Boruto come from traditional Japanese culture. While many people around the world watch and enjoy the story i...

Bright spots exist—vivid colors, solid canon fights, and genuinely hype openings—but they’re drowned by endless filler arcs, copy-paste characters, and a directionless story that even nostalgic goodwill can’t salvage. The score sits at a disappointed 4/10, advising newcomers to skip straight to t...

There’s nothing here to praise; even the Momoshiki arc is only “quit-before-it-rots” territory. Kurama’s off-hand death for a five-minute power-up that still fails epitomizes how every legacy character is nerfed, sidelined, or turned into comic relief, while new alien villains break the power sca...

The manga’s reversal-of-Naruto concept and Team 10 keep a sliver of hope alive, but the anime drowns itself in worthless fillers and shabby Pierrot animation that barely feel bearable. A tight, 12-episode-per-volume adaptation faithful to the monthly manga would have fixed the pacing disaster. Ov...

Boruto’s manga delivers excellent character growth and is the only way to experience the franchise at its peak. The anime, however, suffers from relentless filler, atrocious pacing, and rushed, inconsistent animation that even makes returning Naruto characters look ugly. Skip the filler and stick...

The Boruto anime delivers several genuinely enjoyable arcs—especially Mitsuki’s back-story and the Mist Village tale—that aren’t even in the manga. Yet roughly 70 % of the run is filler or anime-only canon, and the central plot doesn’t kick in until Kawaki appears around episode 180, making much ...

The soundtrack still slaps (8-9/10) and the animation has noticeably leveled up, plus a handful of emotional beats land. Unfortunately, the plot feels improvised on the spot—Boruto goes toe-to-toe with a god one arc, then gets dunked on by no-name pirates a hundred episodes later—while legacy ico...

The manga-canon arcs erupt with the most fluid, spectacular, and emotionally devastating battles the shinobi world has ever animated, backed by a handful of heartfelt opening songs. Yet the series drowns in filler sludge, saddles us with a forgettable new cast, and opens with such a sloppy start ...

The manga canon episodes are stellar, often scoring 8–10/10, and the series could easily be an 8+ if it stuck to them. Unfortunately, it’s padded with tedious filler and so-called “anime canon” that introduce plot holes, confusion, and episodes so boring I skipped most after reading summaries. Th...

Boruto’s core mythos around the Otsutsuki delivers exciting, memorable fights and the nostalgia of watching the next generation carries real joy, but 187 meandering episodes before Kawaki appears, bland villains, a forgettable soundtrack, and visually “smoothed-out” art drag the experience down. ...

The manga canon stretches of Boruto deliver a genuinely enjoyable story with impressive animation and real engagement. Unfortunately, they’re buried under half-to-full years of irrelevant filler and anime canon that kill momentum and tarnish the show’s reputation. Overall, it’s a mixed experience...

Hi, I like to keep it short and simple when writing a review. As I'm not that good at writing paragraphs and having to fill them for length and precision's sake. I started watching Boruto, and then dropped it after the first 100-something episodes. It really starts off bad, something like a 5 for...

Here’s what you should know about me: I don’t watch filler episodes. Generally. I mean, for the beginning of Boruto I did every so often, but by the end of it, I was strictly watching the manga canon episodes. Some people might find this stupid, but whoever is reading this review needs to know th...

The Chunin, Steam Ninja Scrolls, and Kara Clash arcs finally deliver fun, nostalgic fights and introduce compelling new faces, while the openings and endings pop with polished visuals and music. Yet the early episodes feel like a predictable rehash, several later arcs are skip-worthy, the ending ...

Okay has anyone actually watched all of these like me, not many and I can say for sure yea some of the fillers are painful to watch but i believe it’s nice to get to go back into the naruto universe and see everything that Naruto has worked towards, Also the canon episodes are on par with or even...
