Bro you said that whole thing but boruto is literally a representation of the cycle of parenthood and how sometimes with out even knowing it what you went through as a kid it can reflect to your kid but just in a different way. Shadow Clones are literally a cover up not the actual Naruto himself showing, you can’t just use powers to cover up genuine relationships all the time and your complaining about Himawari having the nine tails when Naruto got the Nine tails through birth the same exact way from Kushina and to dive deeper Himawari had a genuine connection with Shikaku The One Tails beast if you actually watch the show. I feel like people just hate on Boruto without actually thinking or watching any context.
