10 things I would have liked instead of Boruto (this is NOT a dissing post!)
If you like Boruto, well, good for you? I simply couldn’t care less about it personally. However, there are things that I did totally care about, and I’m quite sad and disappointed they’re most likely never going to happen.

1. Madara’s missing siblings
This is something I’ve always felt unfair. We got to know all four Senju brothers both by face and name (even if they’re just a leaf in the whole forest), but not the five Uchiha siblings. I’m not even asking for much, just give me a single panel of them with a name and I’d already be glad enough.
I was so iffed by this, that I named them myself in my Uchiha clan tree, following the common convention of naming all five siblings after the Northern Shinshu range. By the way, mothers would have been appreciated too…
For being the home of one of the most influential clans in the series, we were only fed a few crumbs. Lore states it was destroyed, but barely anything is known about this village (my joke theory of it).
3. Sakumo Hatake’s mission
It’s difficult to believe how popular this character is for the very little we know of him. Yes, he’s Kakashi’s father, a supposed hero of Konoha until he fell in disgrace and offed himself.
That’s all, literally ALL we know! Which is not near enough. I keep hopelessly hoping that some day Kishimoto might write another anniversary oneshot for Sakumo, like he did for Minato.
Ok, at least this one I’m sure many fans will agree with. Out of the nine jinchuriki, we only got decent story for 1/3 of them (Naruto, Gaara and Killer Bee). That leaves 6 people with nothing! Look, I’m not saying they have to be as fleshed out as the very protagonist… but c’mon, can’t you really give me anything?
This is one of the times that I deeply thank Studio Pierrot for at least bringing us the Utakata’s filler arc, and making Fuu showing up in the second chuunin exams.
5. The new Three-Deadlock
Sigh, so much for trying to sell us Team 7 as the new sannin… In reality? Meh, not so much. Listen, I’m partial to Sasuke but I totally love Sakura, and I think they should have been given sage mode too. In fact, I never understood why Tsunade and Orochimaru never got it.
6. Hashirama’s and Mito’s family
Self-explanatory. Who the heck were HashiMito children/Tsunade’s parents? O_O
7. Kirigakure's bloody story
We don’t know how, why or when it began. Some theories attribute it to Yagura, but others appoint it to the third mizukage, whom we don’t even know the name of, less his personality.
If you're interested, I fan-named him here, along many other Naruto characters.
8. Origins of Hidan and Kakuzu
They are the only two akatsuki we don’t know how they ended up like that. It is said that Kakuzu was a Taki-nin that stole a forbidden jutsu and defected, but we don’t really know anything about his life aside that. Hidan is the same case.
9. The downfall of Konoha’s counselors
Those two crawling maggots, those two hypocritical cockroaches, those stinky rotten corrupted… yeah, you know who I’m talking about for sure, even without names. Danzou had it coming, but those two never got the karma fix they deserved! Ò_Ó
10. Legendary battles that we never saw happen
This soon will get a future post itself, so stay tuned! XD
