Boruto Episode 12 thoughts
OMG today’s episode was adorable!
Have I ever mentioned that if BoruSara wouldn’t have been the almost canon romantic ship of this series, I would have seriously shipped BoruMitsu?! I just found the real brotp for this series!!
I was like “Hay marjaawaan” throughout the entire episode.
The dinner scene OMG!!! Himawari cutiepie !!! Boruto’s room scene!!! Hinata’s cooking!!! Denki!!! Iwabe being terrible at arithmetic!!! Shikamaru!!! Inojin!!! Shikadai!!! Konohamaru being Naruto fanboy!!! Moegi!!!
The entire episode honestly!!
Alright today’s episode 90% confirmed Sumire has an intentional role in these attacks and that Mitsuki figured it out later.
Damn that conversation between her and Mitsuki. This girl really needs therapy while the boy needs to learn social skills.
So Mitsuki is learning both empathy as well as developing a personality of his own. Good thing because when Boruto goes off the rails, it should be Mitsuki who brings him back and not blindly follow him. Sarada would to be busy for this nonsense since Hokage training is hard enough.
Flashbacks to Orochimama and possibly Suigetsu. Lol Mitsuki going around and asking everyone why he’s changing. Lmao when he says that Boruto actually gets decent meals at home. So possibly Boruto has a huge appetite.
The entire Uzumaki family + Mitsuki was so heartwarming.
Loved Naruto today. He was adorable.
Honestly I loved today’s animation. So bright and cheerful. I just realised that the Academy is really picturesque.
But where is Sarada? I hope she’s Ok. She wasn’t even in the class.
Lastly, Boruto is perhaps my most beloved character of this show. I was feeling so bad for both him and Naruto. I loved how he differentiated between his father and the office of Hokage. He hates his father being the Hokage, not the office of Hokage or his own father by themselves. But this also leads to him resenting both his father and the position of Hokage at the same time. He just wants his father back, for things to go back to how they were before Naruto became Hokage.
Honestly all someone needs to do is to treat Boruto in mature way and show him what Naruto really does and sacrifices. That’s what Sasuke did why taking him to fight Momshiki and Kinshiki. Showing him the reality from which Naruto protects Boruto from. It’s the same with Sarada. Her frustration and suspicions arose because she was receiving childish and incoherent answers. If Sakura and Sasuke would have treated her with little more maturity especially at the tower, it would have done a lot to assauge her feelings.
But the thing remains that Boruto is too old for tantrums. Look at Himawari. She is younger but still is more mature than Boruto. And that's where the idiot part comes in. Boruto may be talented beyond his age but he's also really immature in some ways. He really needs to understand that he won't remain a child either. On one hand, he tells everyone to treat him like an adult. On the other hand, he doesn't want to grow up. The irony. Also, Boruto is very charismatic. That's something Naruto earned through sheer determination. Boruto is a total natural in that area.
Honestly Boruto loves his family. What Boruto perhaps means by surpassing his father is not strength and political position. It’s perhaps something else. What it is will be shown only down his journey.
OMG the precap. Kakashi!!! Things got really real. It really gave the Naruto Konoha crush or war arc feels.
