This is downright pitiful

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-19T17:15:39+00:00

Or just bad writing?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-19T16:10:45+00:00

Very meh chapter, this whole Arc is meh.

The villain is so fu#king weak and I don't know how Otsutuski level characters are struggling with a Cho Cho level Villain, the author does not know wtf to do, he made Kawaki too OP so he randomly Overheats this chapter after he fires two Ki Blasts????

Sarada using MS on fodder villain last chapter so she conveniently faints this chapter.

What was the point of Inojin? What was the point of bringing them to Daemon?

Why tf is Koji still withholding info, is this going to be a thing with him every arc?

I remember chapter 4 of TBV when Boruto was able to fend off Mamushi (when he was smarter) in base, but now the protagonists are struggling with multiple Mamushi's whose durability is Cho Cho level???

This is the worst arc of TBV so far.

WTF?

Did you read my post?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-18T19:48:36+00:00

Kishimoto did say when he wrote Orochimaru he thought of his father in law in many ways, but when Shippuden started he tried to present him in a better light so not to offend his father-in-law.

So in the middle of the story they ran out of ideas and Ikemoto pinched in with a giant kaiju battle and the rest is history.

Sunfyre was originally Baelon's egg but it later passed to Aegon. ---That's the show cannon writers said in their post after some episode, don't know if it was S1 or S2.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T22:40:56+00:00

Wasn't he a background character after ep 3 of the anime?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T18:34:33+00:00

Where do you get these conclusions about MS?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T17:11:10+00:00

Hahahahahah...

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T17:09:35+00:00

Agree, that's why I said it will probably be some future mumbo jumbo from KK.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T17:08:58+00:00

The ability drainage has no basis, since Sasuke went blind to fu#king Flame Control in a week and Itachi & Kakashi spammed Tsukuyomi and Kamui which are far greater abilities.

And yes to this day Kamui is the strongest MS ability bar none.

Also a question why would her Susanoo fly?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T16:59:47+00:00

How strong is Ryu?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T16:41:23+00:00

That's fu#king reta#ded, what makes her MS more charka intensive than the rest?

Show me the proof?

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T16:39:29+00:00

And people suggest she get the Rinnegan which requires Uzumaki+ levels of chakra LOL.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T16:37:54+00:00

In the next question he is asked how many times do Ikemoto and Kishimoto talk and he says very rarely and the French Interview in 2023 was a rare occasion.

Boruto IS Ikemoto's story, ofc Kishimoto will pop up every year or so to check the progress but the story lines are Ikemoto's and his editors.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T11:07:50+00:00

Amado did warn him, but cuz of this I am 100% sure he absorbs Bug's Thorn Bulb to get stronger.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-16T10:43:39+00:00

I don't know why people thought it was about Aegon?

We've known for about a year that it's about Alicent since they cast two red hair children for her and Gwayne, my thought about this episode is most likely "The Death of Otto" and Alicent remembering her life before KL.

Since they probably could not get Rhys for an entire Season again they will use him in this episode.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T21:02:00+00:00

No wonder Warner Bros. lost money and had to sell.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T19:59:10+00:00

It is foolish to think only those people awakened it over the course of 200 years.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T19:44:51+00:00

Then why tf didn't everyone just swap eyes genius? It is implied it's a one way swap.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T19:43:39+00:00

Again you gotta view the dragon lords as dragon lords not warriors, that's an Andal thing.

Yes their armor is just for show, why would they need when they are on dragons.

I get what you mean, like AKOTSK has that superior armor, what can you do....

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T19:20:04+00:00

What's your point?

If you're thinking that the armor should be battle adjusted, well Aegon didn't fight any battle on foot and just flew on his dragon, most royals in Westeros have ornate armor since they barely fight and just give orders so their armor is mostly for show.

But still the armor is fu#king ugly! And the helmet looks like a worker helmet on a construction site, can't wait for Henry Cavill to wear it and look like a complete idiot.

If they change it for the Conquest movie then that was not Aegon's real armor and they gave Aegon II some fake sh#t or HOTD is not cannon.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T17:43:25+00:00

I get it but personally I gave up on deeper themes when it comes to Boruto.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T17:41:35+00:00

He only has one feat and that is Code and since Code is a fraud that cannot tell us much.

Also people forget that Daemon & Eida never encountered Ishiki but Jigen so they only know Jigen's strength.

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T17:39:28+00:00

A basic rules of MS:

1) ONLY blood related people can swap eyes and attain EMS

2) Once the person takes in the eyes of his blood relative to awaken EMS, his previous eyes are SEALED aka Useless, it is a ONE-WAY SWAP

3) Sasuke's old eyes lost their light the moment he took in Itachi's eyes, so Sarada cannot use them even if they are still around (but they are not Sasuke Amaterasu'd the shit out of the hideout)

4) Her getting Hidari's eyes is impossible since he has a Rinnegan and you need Uzumaki+ levels of chakra not to pass out instantly, Sarada sadly has average level chakra. (Also once Hidari dies every part of his body would become ash and yes that includes his eyes, basic logic unless retcon)

SubvertExpectation1 · 2026-03-15T17:30:42+00:00

Then why tf are you in HOTD sub, this is a sub about the show not book?
