The whole chapter fucked me up. I was not expecting this so soon??? And like Sarada's inner thoughts during the announcement for the genin exam. And Karin. But Sakura seemed pretty confident when talking to Sarada so I feel like this series (part 1)
Is going to handle a lot of the fan theories (including the stupid Sarada is Karin's child) along with Naruto not succeeding 100% in fixing the system so Boruto and Sarada are going to end up finishing it off. (Part 2)
They threw me off as well tbh, I was very surprised. It looks like she just doesn’t want to be a ninja and it makes me so sad because she probably doesn’t want to because her dad is a ninja and being a ninja is what’s keeping him away. And that is just so so sad. :(
I am sure Sasuke loves his family to death and that he hated he had to leave, and I am sure that Sakura and him talked about how he had to leave for a very long time because Sakura is not overtly sad and she knows why he’s away and is very confident he’ll be back (soon even), but it is still heartwrenching that this even has to happen in the first place.
As for Boruto and Sarada... idk. They don’t seem to be rivals, like we thought they would be. She’s the only one who seems preoccupied anything that has to do with the system (well, just more ninjas in general)
