Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is a beyond-exceptional manga and a must-read.
The chapters (6 as of writing) have all been action-packed with improved panelling and artistic style from OG Boruto. Ikemoto has done some neat panels that play with perspective in ways the Boruto series has never seen before. So far, the art has stayed consistent; regardless of size and importance, every panel appears to share equal parts of attention from Ikemoto.
Ikemoto continues his impressive character design into TBV. Every character change developed in believable and stylish ways. Of course, the leading trio Boruto, Sarada, and Kawaki are the shining stars of the designs.

writing of Kishimoto is nothing short of masterclass. TBV is sitting on a fantastic foundation. It's hard even to imagine how this story could flop. So many elements have been intertwined in this story. As a reader, I constantly question how in the world our protagonist is going to get through this. Even while most of the story in TBV and OG stays within the walls of Konoha or familiar ground, I have rarely felt the true weight of challenge and stakes as I do with TBV. This story is something truly unique, and it is almost impossible to have any accurate fan theories on what's to come.
OG Boruto needed a bit of a reset as many complaints of OG Boruto no longer apply as the series continued and drastically improved. So far, everything about TBV is superior to OG. It was a good idea for the timeskip to be a separate series so it could serve as a soft reboot.
Thanks for reading.
