so looking at both Boruto chapter 12, and Boruto episode 5 at the same time I gotta say I’m really upset. Shino was my second favorite character from day one. I love that boy and when the epilogue came out I was like ‘well at least now he will finally have a position where he will never be forgotten’
Like it’s not funny, I don’t see the joke. It’s really upsetting because he’s trying so hard and all the kids just openly mock him and even Iruka is like ‘yeah, I gave you the problem children...what? You are struggling and feel lost? I’ll just give them to Anko then.’ Like he was so depressed this episode and in the chapter special he even said he was crying.
Now he is possessed by that snake like thing and you know, I’m actually happy about that! I want him to put the fear of God in those children. To remind them all just who the fuck he is.
He is the guy who blew a persons arm off in an exam! He’s the guy who put his own life on the line to keep Hinata and Kiba from running out of chakra during the fourth ninja war! He lead the Aburame family in battle! He is the head of one of four noble clans in the hidden leaf village. Even Kiba said during the chunin exams that out of EVERYBODY there, which included Gaara, Sasuke, Naruto, Neji, ect. Shino was the one he DIDN’T want to go against.
So please please please let this be an experience where the kids respect him after wards! He freaking deserves it.
