This is my review on this manga. Oh and expect to be spoiled. Okay, so before I get into this, I would like to say one thing. THIS IS MORE OF A INTRODUCTION TO THE LATEST NARUTO MOVIE. If you could not get that hint, then gosh you really have bad analytic skills. I bet I was one of the few that enjoyed that Naruto ending. I did find the manga in general rushed. More could have been done to explain the final villain.

This is more of a sequel. Presenting team 7 and their kids as well. We do get a small appearance from shikamaru's kid though. The story is about sarada finding here "real mum", whilst dealing with a villain and his son(created by Orochimaru) interested in resurrecting the Akatsuki. As always I found this series amazing, the nostalgia was so real lol. Three major flaws I found however, was the lack of the mastermind(Orochimaru), pacing was ridiculous(felt fast as hell) and the villains where just off. If anything they got me wondering about Orochimaru lol. Oh I perhaps forgot to mention the character that was once hilarious, but got annoying after a few chapters. The story gets a 8-9/10.

Art as always was amazing. As well as detailed. So a 10/10.

Characters like Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura got some pretty good development. Sakura is not as useless as I though she was. Sasuke has grown pretty badass and Naruto is more mature then ever. Apart from that we get Sarada and Chocho as well. What I loved about this 10 chapter series was Sarada's development. She grew not thinking much about becoming a ninja to thinking about the Hokage role. While, Boruto dislikes such a role. For me this is an amazing transition. So this is a 8/10 from me.


Here is a summary:
Story: 9/10, pacing Kishimoto. Pacing. Felt like this should have been a 50-100 chapter series. People who lack analytical skills, should know by now that this is not the end. A ninja stronger then Kaguya will appear.

Art: 10/10 the art is always amazing.

Character development: 8/10. Especially for Sarada.
Enjoyment: 9/10. Nostalgia is mostly the reason. Seeing Naruto was awesome.

Pros:
-Naruto and cast. Seeing them was nostalgic.
-Finding out that a villain stronger then Kaguya will appear.
-Sarada choosing to be Hokage and Boruto finding it ridiculous.
-Kabuto a good guy, but I do find babysitting 500 kids ridiculous and funny.

Cons:
-Pacing
-Orochimaru: his participation was lacking. Plus that mofo is always suspicious.
-Shin was disappointing, but I found it ironic that he was inspired by a amazing Uchiha. However, he chose a path that Itachi was against.

Overall: 9/10.
