Watching Boruto fighting the enemy this episode was painful. The kid is clearly outclassed until Sasuke stepped in.
Pretty explosive battle this episode. Jiraya working with Sasuke again is kinda strange to watch imo. It also looks like Boruto and Naruto were able to synch a powerful Wind Release: Rasengan together.

I hope that the studio decides to rework the music after this arc because clearly, good music is what the series has been lacking. Everything just felt more emotional and interesting.
It would be nice if this was the turning point for the show. But I'm not getting my hopes up because it will probably go back to more of the same.

The animation for this episode was nice to see
That starting scene was pretty creepy, but seeing that bird-like form was a bit disappointing in my opinion
Not gonna lie, that rasengan at the end gave me goosebumps, also nice to see sasuke using some of his old techniques

I feel like this would be the perfect time fore Jiraiya to whip out Sage mode. Oh well.
Finish it with a Father-Son Kamehameha lol

Let's hope Urashiki is done for, I'm tired of Kaguya's lineage. We need another villain who's going to carry this series through and through.
I enjoyed this arc though, and hope the goodbyes in the next episode will be emotional a little.

wow so Sasuke is just another dude now i guess and Jaraiya gets downgraded from badass sannin to a kinda powered up idiot.. Am I the only one pissed off that Jaraiya didn't question why Urashiki had the Rinnegan throughout this whole arc? I have so many issues with this show, I mean this was def one of the best arcs of the series, but man is this show garbage compared to what Naruto was.

It was a good end to the best arc by far, lots of references, like the naruto rage mode when Jiraiya gets hit, almost like Naruto Vs Pain, and the rasengan blast at the end haha.

This was the second most ambitious fight in Boruto after the Naruto & Sasuke vs Momoshiki one, the rasengan soundtrack is always so touching, Urashiki's transformation looks really good and the finale was legendary with the Kirin.

wow! that's the Ultimate Rasengan that Naruto & Boruto pulled-off...the one that Sage Mode Jiraya used in his fight against Pain!
hmmmm i feel like that was anti-climatic cuz Urashiki won't he defeated like that, no matter how strong a elemental jutsu just like Rasengan which is a Wind type element, Rinnegan eyes would just be able to absorb it just like one of the paths of pain.....this is really an asspull win...
5/5.

Jiraiya: "My rasengan is a cut above the rest. That should've done the trick." lol.
When I noticed that Urashiki played around too much, I was sure he is going to lose.
The only good thing from this episode is the animation.

I found it odd that throughout this whole arc, Jiraiya never mentioned the Rinnegan when encountering Urashiki... you'd think he would recognize it due to his whole backstory with Nagato. Good job ignoring all of that.

Had high hopes for this arc, but very disappointing. Urashiki is weak asf and sasuke was nerfed too much, if he needed chakra could of absorbed some from Naruto. Urashiki final form design was dead and the way he died was too similar to momoshiki. Seems like we're not gonna see any sasuke and Itachi interaction.

This episode had good animation after a while and the fight was pretty good too. Urashiki was finally defeated and looks like next episode will be the last of this arc. It was fun watching young Naruto and Jiraiya again.

very true, especially since he taught someone with it and he didn't question sasuke ameterasu
The only reason I didn't mention that is I think he knew it was Sasuke after saying something to him about it an earlier episode, still bs though. They could have made this arc so much better, i'm disappointed with how they did this sh*t.

ngl, I didn't like Boruto to begin with, but saw time travel stuff and started watching this arc... it's like the writers knew that most old fans dislike Boruto and had to just give us old Naruto content with the original OST. I don't mind the fight sequences (they were well animated) but the general nerfing and boosting of people's power to fit the narrative was pretty lame... also I was hoping for social ramifications. C'mon, don't give me time travel shenanigans without the fallout. I'm probably gonna stop watching this after the closure ep for this arc.

I know there's probably 20 more important questions I should be asking but why in the hell wouldn't Jiraya attempt to go into Sage mode with those 2 frogs when he's up against an enemy that's this powerful???
But whether Urashiki is really dead or not it looks like this arc has run its course. I hope we at least get to see Hinata one more time before they go back to the future. Overall I'd still say this is one of the better Boruto filler arcs. With any luck we'll get another one with Sumire soon.

It was a good fight, they managed to defeat him with father-son rasengan, once again!
The nerf on Sauke and Jiraya is kinda sad, but it was still good!
Sasuke and Sakura's moment was weet, i am curious for her confrontation in next episode!
Was really nostalgic that victory old theme, i loved it!
I wonder if something will be changed when they return to present!

The episodes were decent,I know that the protagonist is boruto but there were so many wrongs in the character of past Naruto, in the actual series he was noisy ,hard working and during battles multi shadow clone that was this bread and butter but here in the past Naruto we see more well mannered Naruto with no battle instinct,I know I am bitching but this is just my take as a person who loves the Naruto series

I have mixed up feelings about this episode. It was almost a trend to have an over the top budget when the final fight that features an Otsutsuki is animated, this one had a few hights here and there, but it was way too stiff at some points, way too plastic-ky if that makes any sense. But what I'm mad about the most is how little sense those subtle things make. How can you grow an eye by eating another, and also recover the one you just ate? Why did it take a weakened Sasuke, a not so serious Jiraya, a kid Naruto and Boruto to defeat a freaking immortal God figure in the world of ninja, is probably a matter of minutes of over a couple of hours? I wish the story took itself way more seriously.

What do you mean by "powerful"? It's annoying enough that they made Sasuke use Kirin on a fodder opponent, many fans wouldn't accept it if they made Jiraiya go sage mode as well. They also handled Naruto's one tailed shroud very poorly, which is laughable considering how curse mark transformed Sasuke dealt with it.
Urashiki has the Rinnegan and is probably the strongest person in the world right now not counting Sasuke. Or at the very least he was smacking Jiraya around pretty easily and by all means could have killed them multiple times so I don't see why Jiraya would be holding back his trump card in that situation. I don't see why you're calling him a fodder opponent either considering he's been the main villain for a while now although I assume not for much longer.

Also why the heck has everyone been so lax when fighting this guy? They know the Otsutski clan are bad news so just overwhelm them, don't do whatever Sasuke was doing that lead to Urashiki gaining strength and Sasuke and others getting hurt.
sh*t like this is what makes this whole anime feel like a Naruto filler, no consistency with the established rules.

I could understand it for Sasuke since he got most of his chakra stolen by Urashiki (who was actually quite weak since he got defeated by Naruto and Boruto lol), but there's no excuse for Jiraya, he was useless during the whole fight while he should have been op
Jiraya not mentionning the Rinnegan (or even the Byakugan) was also a huge plothole. It's not like these eyes are common, and highly skilled ninjas like him are perfectly aware of their existence (especially in Jiraya's case because of Nagato)
I enjoy this arc however, but I really hope Sasuke and Boruto are gonna explain who they really are
Most of the time, time travelling stories are taking this easy route of "not tell anyone because it could change the future". That's a shame because things would be way more interesting if they were just honest and deal with it (for example it's done really well in the TV series Dark, when time travelling characters literally don't give a damn about encountering their past/future selves, and it makes the story so much better)
I would be happy if in the next episode Sasuke just removes his eyepatch to show his Rinnegan, that'd be pretty dope even though I highly doubt that I'll happen unfortunately
Anyways, now I'm curious to see what the next Boruto arc will be
I hope it won't continue too much longer with the Otsutsuki clan, I always find them extremely boring and bad villains. I prefered the time when Kaguya was the only Otsutsuki and not just a simple member of a clan
I'm also surprised the anime didn't introduce that edgy-insufferable brat who is supposed to be Boruto's main rival. But I'm also glad it didn't, because I really don't like all this new stuff about this mysterious Boruto's eye power and that bad cliffhanger at the very beginning of the series, where Konoha is destroyed (again)

All in all, I am not very satisfied with that end. In fact I am pretty disappointed. I should be pissed, but aren't since I never expected more. I take what I get, and with that in mind, it was an decent end. Very mediocre, smh.

A nivel lore de todo Naruto en teoria afectaria bastante porque vimos (a mi entender) un control parcial de chacka del Kyuubi.
Boruto regaña a Naruto por atacar a Urashiki pero despues el tambien hace lo mismo asi que queda bastante mal eso, pero bueno...detalles que en general hay en todo boruto y naruto.
No se que paso con los amigos de naruto que no llegaron nunca...osea vimos algo que no llego a nada...literalmente relleno. Pero a lo mejor el proximo episodio dicen algo
