The recent chapter of the Boruto manga series has caused some disappointment among fans. The story, which follows the adventures of Naruto’s son Boruto and his friends, has been criticized for not taking the chance to be truly original. In the latest chapter, Boruto’s best friend and former “brother” Kawaki betrays the village of Konoha and attempts to kill Boruto and Naruto, the current Hokage. This should have been a chance for the series to take a darker, more tragic turn, by making Kawaki a truly irredeemable villain. However, the story takes a familiar route, as Boruto decides to try and redeem Kawaki, just like Naruto did with his former friend Sasuke.
This decision by the Boruto writers has disappointed fans who were hoping for a more original storyline. The confrontation between Boruto and Kawaki has been teased since the first chapter of the series, and it was expected to be a darker, more tragic version of the Naruto and Sasuke story. While Sasuke’s betrayal and eventual redemption was an iconic part of the original Naruto series, some fans criticized the easy forgiveness he received, which took away from the tragic buildup of the story. With Kawaki, Boruto had the chance to fix this issue by making him a truly irredeemable villain, but instead, they chose to follow the same path as the original series.
Boruto’s decision to try and redeem Kawaki also contradicts the initial portrayal of their relationship. Unlike Naruto and Sasuke, who were rivals from the beginning, Boruto and Kawaki were portrayed as close friends who saw each other as brothers. This made the betrayal and subsequent attempt on Boruto’s life all the more tragic, as it was a betrayal of brotherhood rather than a simple rivalry. By choosing to follow the same path as Naruto and Sasuke, Boruto has missed the chance to create a more unique and original storyline.
Despite this disappointment, fans are still eagerly anticipating the future of the series and hoping for unexpected twists and turns. The latest chapter of Boruto is available to read through Viz Media.
