The Hidan wannabe was a big disappointment, like this entire arc, I'm glad it's finally over.

this sounds like small hint towards Mujina arc

Kish0 said:


Is this manga arc ?

Kish0 said:
Well, at least there's no plot hole for this arc. And had some Kakashi x Guy moments.

The answer Mirai try to find is on her own name.

And I'm just gonna drop this :

It's the phantom Samurai. We never knew anything about him, but the show tried to give us to understand that it existed.

The arc was ok overall. It's one of my least fav arcs of boruto D

The Mitsuki disappearance arc was astronomically worse! Mirai was actually an interesting character, but I agree, could have definitely been cut down to 4 episodes

Oussema said:

Mirai arc had a lot of slice of life and some of it was boring and terrible like the ghost ep. It started as an interesting arc but i didn't care after 3 eps. I liked some moments though and the first and last eps were good

Oussema said:

I have already said my opinion about the arc anyway
I didn't like mitsuki arc that much too but i find it better than this
it's definitely disappointing because It had a very interesting premise :
-An arc centered on mitsuki (the most interesting character of the new generation for me) who tries to find his will and to know whether his actions are from his own will or if everything is just programmed in him
-Boruto and sarada contact orochimaru
-sarada meets karin for the first time
-Visiting Ryuuchi cave which is a very interesting place
-Aoda (sasuke's snake) saves and obeys sarada
-Boruto makes a contact with a snake
-artificial humans and creatures (exploring their will, how they feel toward humans , their abilities...)
-Ohnoki is the mastermind
-sarada can possibly unlock the second tomoe of her sharingan (i don't know why they missed the opportunity to do that . They were under a lot of dangers in the arc)
On paper this arc is excellent but the execution is very bad . The pace is very slow ,many episodes were boring and unnecessary that keep repeating the same dialogues and many things were badly done (the stupid tasks before entering ryuuchi cave,the whole thing about boruto and ohnoki being trapped in Sanzu Plains , the 4th tsuchikage loses easily, ohnoki's death wasn't well done and it's not sad(this is the first time i don't like a death scene in the whole naruto/boruto series ! The deaths in naruto were extremely epic and sad )...even the last fight wasn't that good (the other fights were pretty good though)
The thing with boruto and garaga and how they can communicate with each other like that was never explained . Maybe it's an ability of the jougan and they'll explain it one day but i doubt it
I was so disappointed and pissed .it could be an excellent arc if only they made a little effort in the execution and directing and made the arc shorter :(
It's average but overall the arc had its good moments and fights and the general story is good

I got the same kind of slice of life vibes from this arc as well, I think that's why I enjoyed it so much. And it was a refreshing change of pace not focusing on Boruto for a couple weeks. At this point the filler has beat his character down into our heads, the lack of progression in his character is extremely frustrating to watch week in and week out.

LeafJonin said:

This was really well written because I think this sums up the majority of the fan base's gripe with this series. There is an interesting world, and the writers do well enough to set us up to be hooked in, but then ultimately falls flat and we return back to the village with the characters seemingly unchanged, or have not learned anything over the course of the arcs.

I shouldn't have said the Mitsuki arc was astronomically worse, because like you've pointed out, was a good arc in theory, but execution was very poor. They totally botched Ohnoki and Ku was probably the most fodder baddie this show has produced other than that bird dude (who's name is slipping my mind right now). Mitsuki's development with the Fabrications was really interesting to me as well but pacing of a 20+ episode arc could have easily been cut down closer to 10 with a more direct focus on Mitsuki
