That was a good way to end vol 5. The build up is there too, if you re-read ch 17-20(vol 5)
Opening of the vol 5 starts w Sarada distracted by the Sumire/Boruto drama & ending of the vol 5 is her moving past it to use Mangekyou
DELAYED PAYOFF

yeah! im gonna try to make it a point to post more!
How Jura talks about love & say to get rid of it is GOOD
He has rinnegan(samsara), yet he is the embodiment of the Buddhist concept of Samsara gone wrong
An endless cycle of evolution w/ out enlightenment. A being without karma only evolution & causing suffering
#boruto
pretty much the advice i gave them on twitter, let the story breathe and build up if you think it's slow, even though it's fast paced for a monthly manga...i read series that we're lucky to get 25 pages per month...boruto gives 40 consistently...
yeah. it's crazy to me people call the manga slow paced...im like dude are we reading the same thing
correction IS being overlooked
This whole Konohamaru/Matsuri/Moegi dynamic has a layer I don't think is being overlooked
Moegi's unspoken/unfulfiled love for Konohamaru led to the suffering/vengence that is Matsuri
It twists & echoes Noh stories, concepts like onryō, Yuki-onna
#BorutoTwoBlueVortexCh19
Like dude, it's a monthly manga...if you're expecting 4 weeks worth of weekly content in a Boruto chapter, you're crazy...you get 39-44 pages in Vjump....
Pacing complaints are CRAZY
