Koe no Katachi, Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Recommendations
We all hate bullies. We even hate these people sometimes to the point where we think of irredeemable pricks. But life goes on, and every now and then, a person changes. Even those we hate.
Boruto is a kid who has everything. Naruto is his father. If you're not familiar with that name, then you're not a true anime fan. He's like the Batman of manga, almost every single person in the anime community knows who he is. But Boruto.. is a different kind of character. He's the Damian Wayne to Naruto's Batman. His own offspring, but completely different from him. And even has hate towards
him.
Koe No Karachi deals with a guy who used to bully a girl in his childhood. For some reason, he would treat her very untimely and thus, their relationship would become strained. This is the result many years later, and the boy became a young man. This man is now ridden with guilt for his childhood self did and thus, learned sign language to make up for it. But things are about to happen, and he will realize that he can still change as a person.
Both have an unlikable protagonist from the start, you'll basically wonder why they are the mc. But the anime will slowly convince you that they are, in fact, redeemable.. As anyone is. We all hate spoiled kids, but as adults, we grow to realize their capacity to change. And that goes the same for adults as well. We don't have to be fixated on the past, we can change. For the better.
Right now, almost everyone absolutely despises Boruto's existence. But his older self hates him, too. In the end, it's all about choice. Life is full of them. What you do matters everyday, and everyday you matter. It's all a matter of choice. And you can choose to redeem yourself. The question is, are you really going to be redeemed in the end?
Sasuke Uchiha himself knows that feeling.. What about you?
To the viewers, give these characters a chance. After all, we were once naughty kids ourselves once, am I right? :)
