Summary: The ninja adventures continue with Naruto’s son, Boruto!
Naruto
was a young shinobi with an incorrigible knack for mischief. He
achieved his dream to become the greatest ninja in his village, and now
his face sits atop the Hokage monument. But this is not his story... A
new generation of ninja is ready to take the stage, led by Naruto's own
son, Boruto!
Boruto gets through round two of the Chunin Exam and
receives praise from his father. But what Naruto doesn’t know is that
his son is cheating by using prohibited ninja tools. What will happen to
Boruto when the truth is revealed? Meanwhile, darker forces are
advancing behind the scenes…
Review: It’s a continuation
of Boruto as he goes for the chunin exams. Boruto does rather well, only
to be discovered for cheating. It’s quite poor character, and his
reaction to being discovered only makes it worse. When Oototsuki attack,
Naruto has to go to his tail beast form and for the first time Boruto
sees how awesome his dad is.
Later Naruto kidnapped by the
Oototsuki and it is one of the significant moment when Boruto self
realizes and has to change himself. This development seems to make a
step forward in his relationship with his father, and see how awesome
his dad was and go to rescue his dad with the other kages.
Honestly,
it happens rather quickly. There wasn’t really much improvement than
the first volume, this was not a good sign. The pacing of events
continues to be a problem.
From what I heard, this is a rehash from what happens in the anime. This discourages me from continuing the series.
Why I should continue to read if I was going to read a copy and paste story? Where is the original story?
At the end of the volume, we’re amidst another big fight scene, in the middle of yet another big reveal by the bad guys.
I guess I will have to read the next volume.
