A rising chorus of fans is voicing their dissatisfaction with Borutoโs character development in the manga, particularly due to its infrequent monthly installments. Many are calling for richer storytelling that would engage audiences better and explore character interactions more deeply.
Forum discussions show that fans feel Boruto's growth has stagnated. One commenter expressed, "You can only expect the least from monthly mangaโฆ there is very little character interaction.โ This sentiment aligns with others who feel the story is overly focused on the main plot at the expense of character depth.
Another poster lamented fading interest in the series, saying, "If this keeps up, the series will be dead in 2 years." Such comments hint at a growing fear that fans may drift away unless significant changes are made.
Fans are also advocating for Boruto and Sasuke to explore deeper story arcs. Discussions highlight missed opportunities, with one user noting, "It sucks we never get to see how the world reacts to Naruto being 'killed.'" This kind of storytelling could enhance Boruto's character and the series' lore.
Moreover, a user pointed out, "Ever since the time skip, it feels like they scrapped his Part 1 characteristics to make him cooler." Hints at a lack of continuity concern long-time fans who cherished those early character traits.
Despite the dissatisfaction, there's hope the anime adaptation may offer improvements. One commenter optimistically stated, "Hopefully the anime can save this," suggesting the potential for a more expansive exploration of character motivations.
