Boruto: Two Blue Vortex debuted an extremely intriguing power in its recent chapters. Boruto revealed an Op ability that was different than any other technique introduced in the series.
Code received first hand damage from Boruto’s new powers and its after-effects were enough to keep him down. So what is this Op ability? And is it a sustainable power for Boruto to keep using in the long run?
How does Boruto’s Rasengan Uzuhiko Work?
Rasengan Uzuhiko | Boruto Viz Media
Recently, the official website of Naruto revealed how Boruto’s Rasengan Uzuhiko works. Uzuhiko is prepared by Boruto by gathering the chakra around his body rather than just his palm. Additionally, it also uses the chakra of the planet’s rotation.
Once the attack comes in contact with the target, it infuses the rotating chakra into the victim. Thus, the target is hit with the full force of the planet’s rotation.

Satoshi Kon, the renowned director of films like Tokyo Godfathers, Paprika, and Perfect Blue, spoke out about women in Japanese media. Most otakus consume a huge amount of anime in their day-to-day life, often without questioning the realism of the characters.
Many Shonen manga come under fire for their unrealistic portrayals of women, and often these go hand in hand with subpar opportunities. Thus, Satoshi Kon’s belief about female characters could be considered a fresh perspective on the matter.
Satoshi Kon’s Inspiration Behind Strong Female Characters
Paprika | Studio Madhouse
Satoshi Kon has always gone against the “moe” characters (characters that illicit feelings of affection) in his works. The female characters he has portrayed in his movies are strong and self-reliant. In fact, they are often pushed towards dangerous situations.

The Straw Hat Pirates might be the strongest crew in One Piece, but they are not perfect. Especially the Swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates, Roronoa Zoro. He might look like a character any of the crew members can depend on, but he has a few flaws that may reflect badly on his character but essentially make him human.

During a subreddit discussion, a One Piece fan revealed Zoro’s biggest flaw is his arrogance, which has been a part of him since the beginning of the series.

Naruto is not just about epic battles and talk-no-jutsu. It is also the tale of an outcast who slowly gained friends and family. Masashi Kishimoto has beautifully illustrated Naruto’s difficult life to show readers his struggles.

One of the most impactful villains of One Piece, Crocodile, has a big, mysterious secret that is only known to Emporio Ivankov, the founding member of the Revolutionary Army. Fans have tried for years to theorize and find out this secret, and some have even hypothetically established a connection between Luffy and Crocodile.

Japanese animation studio Bones celebrates its 25th anniversary this year; in commemoration, Crunchyroll assembled the documentary "Bones 25: Dreaming Forward." Broken into four chapters each about the length of an anime episode, the doc features talking head interviews with Bones staff/industry peers highlighting the studio's history and most famous projects.
"Dreaming Forward" doesn't scratch far past the surface, but that's not because it lacks material. In its 25 years, Bones has produced many beloved anime series; its current hit "My Hero Academia" is one of the most popular in the world. Long before that, though, Bones broke out by adapting Hiromu Arakawa's steampunk-action manga "Fullmetal Alchemist."
Set during a fictionalized 20th century in the European-esque country Amestris, the manga centers on two alchemist brothers: Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric. When they were young children, the Elrics lost their mother, Trisha, so they tried to transmute her back to life.

The protagonist of Masashi Kishimoto’s masterpiece, Naruto, followed every basic cliche of an anime main character. He was an annoying individual who had a hidden power within him that he eventually controlled, thus becoming the biggest hero of his village. But there was one thing that was different about Naruto.

He never unnecessarily engaged in fights and battles against enemies. He proved himself to be a good soul by trying to connect to the villains and understand their situation before launching a full-on attack on them. This aspect of Naruto was named by his fans as Talk no Jutsu or Talk-Talk Jutsu.
Although initially it was seen as a decent step on Naruto’s side, fans soon got bored with it and started finding it annoying. However, Kishimoto once revealed the reasoning behind Naruto’s Talk-Talk Jutsu, and it might be much more...

The portrayal of female characters in prominent anime series like Naruto and One Piece has always been a subject of discussion among anime fans. The mangas, being a part of the Shonen genre, have always been blamed for either overly sexualizing the female characters in the series or not giving them enough background or storyline to highlight their importance.

Both One Piece and Naruto have faced these allegations, but according to the overall narrative, One Piece might triumph over Naruto in terms of giving their female characters enough screen time that they leave an impact on the fans.

Naruto has been a lot about legacies as much as it has been about surpassing those legacies.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex aims to continue its journey exactly that way and more. Through the stories of Boruto and Himawari, there is a certain flow in which the story is progressing. A pattern is being followed so as to set not just up these characters as legacies of the protagonist and his friends and foes, but also to create an individuality of their own through those characters.

Generally, anime series are adapted from mangas or comics that have a broad storyline, a bunch of characters, and a central theme. However, there are some anime series that have been adapted from popular video games. The best example of this is Castlevania on Netflix. The series not only got four seasons but also had a spin-off sequel.
Castlevania by Warren Ellis | Powerhouse Animation Studios
Castlevania was created and written by Warren Ellis and is based on the Japanese action-adventure video game series. The story follows the adventures of Trevor Belmont, Sypha Belnades, and Alucard, who try to save their country from the attacks of Dracula, the King of the Vampires, and his vampire army.
The anime series is the perfect adaptation of the game; however, Ellis once revealed that he has never played the game in his life, and the original source of his information about the storyline of...

If you are sad about Gojo’s death, please seek therapy from your friends who like Naruto. From Jiraiya to Itachi, Masashi Kishimoto never let fans feel a scarcity of emotional deaths. Naruto fans have been living with trust issues before trust issues were a thing.
So when Edo Tensei was later introduced in the series, the obvious question of fans was: Where was this technique when Jiraiya died? However, it is crucial for you to know that Jiraiya’s death had purpose, which would have been completely defeated, had he been revived.
In an interview regarding The Last: Naruto the Movie, Kishimoto explained why he never revived Jiraiya.

Hiromu Arakawa's "Fullmetal Alchemist" is one of the best manga/anime ever drawn. It's one of my favorites, and stands out among the crowded "battle shōnen" demographic. Rather than the fantastic Japanese setting of contemporary series like "Naruto" and "Bleach," "Fullmetal Alchemist" is more inspired by the West (though not without its translation hiccups).
Set in a version of 20th century Europe where alchemy is fact, not fiction, "Fullmetal Alchemist" follows brothers Edward and Alphonse "Ed and Al" Elric. The two young alchemists tried to bring their mother back to life, breaking the "ultimate taboo" of human transmutation. The experiment backfired, robbing Ed of his right arm and left leg and Al of his whole body. In their disabled states, they embark on a quest to find the Philosopher's Stone. The Stone can bypass the fundamental law of alchemy and, the brothers believe, restore their bodies.

The final war between the Heroes and All for One in My Hero Academia has come to an end. Kohei Horikoshi’s masterpiece has brought the conclusion in the most unique way possible, and fans couldn’t have hoped for anything else. Chapter 423 showcased the final moments of the battle as Izuku landed his last punch on All for One.

While the ending of the series was spot on, many fans believed that My Hero Academia might follow the path of Naruto and make the antagonist of the series, Shigaraki Tomura, switch sides and help the heroes take down the main villain. This would have made My Hero Academia a copy of Masashi Kishimoto’s Naruto.

Masashi Kishimoto is a master of bending techniques to serve characters. You can nitpick all you want, but the plotholes in Naruto are too small to serve as real arguments against the ability of the author.
Yet, one question arose multiple times in the Naruto fandom: why did Masashi Kishimoto use the Edo Tensei to bring back Madara when the Rinne Tensei was lying right there?
Masashi Kishimoto Explains Why Madara had to be Brought Back by Edo Tensei
Madara Reincarnated | Naruto Fandom
The reason Masashi Kishimoto introduced Edo Tensei was to revive Madara Uchiha. It would have been complicated to revive him through the Rinne Tensei. In an interview, Kobayashi and Masashi Kishimoto discussed the differences between the techniques and why only one could be used for Madara’s return.
So why did Madara not use Rinne Tensei? It’s because Rinne Tensei would resurrect him in his mortal body.

Masashi Kishimoto loves character development more than anything and the theme is prevalent even in his villains. The backstories of characters like Itachi and Obito were what made Naruto iconic.
The author loves to draw out characters bit by bit, but unfortunately, his ideas did not receive enough appreciation from his editors, causing him to cut his ideas short. Regardless, he still came up with some memorable characters.
Masashi Kishimoto’s Original Idea for Naruto‘s Classmates
Chunin Exams Prelims | Naruto Fandom
According to an interview, Masashi Kishimoto had never intended to create the 4 people teams out of Naruto’s classmates. The original plan was to focus on various missions that Naruto would venture out on. Thus, Naruto and his team would meet teams from other villages, who would serve as rivals.

The latest One Piece episode brought with it a lot of exciting events, but it also may have triggered the fans of the cook of the Straw Hat Pirates, Sanji. In episode 1105, which was released on May 18, 2024, fans were able to point out a change in one of the scenes from the manga that resulted in Sanji missing out on his epic moment.
Sanji – One Piece | Toei Animation
This led to fans getting angry with Toei Animation for not doing justice to the character of Sanji, and some even claimed that the studio is biased towards Zoro and favors the swordsman between the two. Zoro and Sanji already have a rivalry going on, and fans believe that cutting out scenes like this undermines Sanji’s importance as a character.
Some fans even targeted the One Piece animator Henry Thurlow, who is part of the One Piece anime staff at Toei Animation.

Sabito was one of the former water hashira's most promising students, with superior battle strength and intellect over other aspirants. He might be highly skilled, but Sabito ruined the purpose of the Final Selection in Demon Slayer.
Joining the Demon Slayer Corps requires a great deal of courage, effort, dedication, and hard work. It's not easy to do since one minute someone is a human and the next they're demon food.

The recent wave of live-action adaptations of popular series has caught up with many prominent anime and manga series like One Piece, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Naruto, Yu Yu Hakusho, etc. Fans are always hoping for their favorite anime and manga to get a live-action adaptation to experience their world more realistically.
Bleach Anime
However, Bleach fans might never be able to get this satisfaction. Bleach’s creator, Tite Kubo, once revealed that he doesn’t want Bleach to be adapted into a live-action series or movie because he drew the series specifically to be featured as a manga. He even went on to say that if Bleach’s live-action was possible, he wouldn’t have drawn the manga.
Despite this, Kubo’s magnum opus did receive a live-action adaptation movie in 2018, and it might not have been as successful as the One Piece live-action series, but it still got decent reception and reviews.

However, it does not guarantee that going astray would lead to success, such was the case with Boruto.
