Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Chapter 74 Discussion

"They fly now? They fly now" -_-
Imagine this series basically ditching "naruto run" and jumping through trees which are very iconic parts of Naruto series.

And Daemon as always irritating, and now he can catch those rods that Naruto and Sasuke couldn't... Naruto needed sacrifice Kurama to achieve the same effect.


On positive note, it seems my theory can be right and Sarada is also immune to Eida power because of her sharingan and connection to Otsutsuki clan.

You need to accept that the series has changed a bit, as all things do, it doesn't make it bad. I would rather the series as long as it's been not stay stagnant.

And I accepted changes, I liked "scientific ninja tools" until it became excuse to make random character stronger than protagonists, like we spend multiple chapters and god knows how long (over a 1~2 years?) on sublot to make Code unlock his full potential (+white karma) just to be beaten down by a kid (who was doing nothing) in the same chapter, and then they decided to give Code random ability to turn parts of juubi into his minions/fodders because otherwise he would never had a chance against Eida. Additionally Daemon is annoying, I don't like him.

Also I have issue with flying mostly for two reasons, First in Naruto series it was super rare ability, secondly it is one of the most boring ways of transportation they can just draw character in front of white/blue background and call it a day.

You mentioned it being irritating that Daemon could catch the rods but shouldn't that have been obvious when he pummeled code, who was stated to be above Jigen, meaning Daemon is quite a bit stronger than Jigen?
And they literally explain how Code could do what he did to the ten tails in a way that is accurate to the narrative. Tailed beasts have been known to be pure chakra for years, and the ten tails basically did the same thing Code is doing now back in Shippuden when it split off a bunch of soldiers from itself to fight the shinobi alliance. Code just forcibly did it on a bigger scale. So I don't see how its a random ability, since it makes perfect sense to the story and has even been shown before
Also it was super rare to be able to fly back in Naruto because its mainly an Otsutsuki/6 paths thing, with the exception of the Tsuchikage as far as I know. Once those things were introduced people were flying left, right and center (Obito, Madara, Kaguya, Hagoromo and Naruto, all basically within 1 arc). Boruto is primarily focused on the Otsutsuki. Hell, the main character and deuteragonist are both Otsutsuki themselves, obviously the flight will be a more common ability in this series

Obviously you're entitled to your own opinion but I genuinely think you're hating on Boruto for the wrong reason, which is that it is just not the same as Naruto, which can be seen in the first sentence of your original comment about the Naruto run

I used "Naruto run" because it is iconic part of this series.
And I don't hate just because it is different, like I really like current anime arc with Himawari and academy. and even somewhat enjoyed Boruto manga until Eida and Daemon were introduced (especially Daemon).

Situation with Zetsu army in Shippuden is different outside of using souls trapped by Kaguya, Akatsuki spent lot of time to get as much biju as possible (to make that army), Zetsu itself with his "cloning" abilities was introduced long before Zetsu army was introduced while Code never showed this ability before (to lesser extend) or Amado told about it and he didn't needed to reclaim juubi.

My problem with Daemon (and Eida) is that he is this strong just because of "technology", like he could probably defeat Naruto in Baryon mode... and this is my main issue with Daemon, Sasuke with sharingan and rinnegan wasn't able to do anything to Jigen and wasn't able to see/doge rods while Naruto needed to sacrifice Kurama to do it and then Daemon basically showed up and told that "he is just built different". + His character is just too annoying for me... I can't even imagine how I will hate him in anime considering I will be able to hear him scream and talk.

Delta was good balance with her technology, not too strong not too weak.

I'm not talking about the zetsu army btw. I'm talking about when the ten tails literally split itself up into a bunch of soldiers. If you dont remember, its when Hinata learned 64 palms and Sakura got the byakuga seal. The ten tails did basically the exact same thing Code is doing now.

And I understand your frustration with characters being strong just because of technology but what about stuff like Hashirama cells back in Shippuden? Those things were used as an explanation for basically everything that couldnt be explained otherwise. Obito never going blind? Hashirama cells, Madara surviving half his body being completely destroyed? Hashirama cells, Danzo reducing the cooldown for Kotoamatsukami from ONCE every TEN YEARS, to TWO A DAY? Hashirama cells. My point is that its not the first time something being made specifically for the purpose of making characters much stronger has been introduced. And as far as we know, Daemon is the strongest of Amado's cyborgs so there most likely wont be many, if any more on the level of top tier characters like Jigen.
We also still know virtually nothing about Amado and his past/goals

Also if it gives you any clarity, Daemon most likely cant beat BM Naruto. The gap between Jigen and Isshiki is massive, and chapter 71 made it clear that Code is only stronger than Jigen, but definitely not Isshiki. Daemon fits somewhere in between the gap from Jigen to Isshiki, and BM is even stronger than Isshiki
