New Naruto/Boruto winter illustration 2022
Reminds me few things :
Hima & Kawaki Sleeping
Reminds me of that time with Boruto & Hima snuggling while Hinata wraps them with blanket this time Kawaki must’ve wrap Hima the blanket and fell asleep too 🥺
Naruto & Hinata’s silhouettes
That time when they also watch their firstborn sleeps while having a heartfelt conversation. I can only imagine the look on their faces and the conversation they’re having this time with Boruto.
The Red Scarf on Boruto & Hima’s Plushies
Ofc it reminds me of NaruHina’s Red String Of Fate 🧣
I’d also like to think Hinata made it.

I know I’m a little late to the Boruto timeskip design discourse but HOLY SHIT did they do Inojin dirty? They cut off his baby ponytail and dressed him in what is basically a potato sack…. How could they dress him like that when BOTH his parents are known for their crop tops?? And the Yamanaka hair come ON his timeskip design had so much potential.
There had better be a fucking croptop under that oversized sweater. That better just be loungewear or else!!!!!!

Thinking here... Naruto & Boruto's time skips have two glaring flaws that are really opposite to each other...
When we get to see Naruto after the 2,5 years time skip, he barely changed anything, he basically:
Learned the Oodama Rasengan (A bigger Rasengan... After 2,5 years... Wow)
Learned to break free from genjustu (??? Why don't they teach it in the Ninja Academy again???) (And yet, he fails when he needs to use it in an actual fight)
And Kyuubi's power got more unstable and he still barely controls it, getting to go four tales rather quickly now (What's ironic given that control this power was Jiraya's focus)
Meanwhile everyone around him seems to have got really stronger: Sakura became a really good Medic Ninja and got Super Strength, Shikamaru evolved his shadow jutsu into a more offensive and independent in combat version, Neji became a Jounin, Chouji got better with his Body Expansion jutsu and was already praticing to use its best version without special pills & Sasuke well... Got a lot of boost, he even had the Kirin already when he first met Naruto & Sakura again... EVEN KAKASHI WITH HIS KAMUI!
Naruto seems to have got stuck in time to then just later have an actual evolution.
Like, I understand Kishimoto probably wanted us to witness Naruto's evolution, (and probably hadn't thought of the concepts properly by that time) but he could at least have made Jiraya drop some stuff and pass to Naruto some basic principles (such as the Chakra Natures (again, why didn't they learn that in the academy???) and what Minato actually wanted to accomplish with the Rasengan or even the Sennin Mode)
In the end the time skip really makes Jiraya look a bad teacher as later in the anime Naruto learns & improves such abilities in record time compared to his predecessors, impressing his teachers...
Meanwhile, Boruto's time skip of 2 years got to give nothing to the secondary characters besides new outfits, otherwise they receive near to zero attention and if we can say they actually evolved, they evolved nothing beyond we could expect or even still got under we could expect.
On contrary to Boruto himself, who reached a new power level, far beyond the average (being able to easily subdue Code who was previously pointed as a huge threat), learned the Hiraishin no Jutsu, had a change of personality, trained with the Frogs from the Myoboku Mountain and even CREATED A FREAKING RASENGAN THAT USES NOTHING LESS THAN THE PLANET'S ROTATION ITSELF...
The brat got absurdely stronger out of our eyes...
So in short: Naruto got almost no evolution in his time skip, what's really disappointing as we look at how much everyone else evolved in the same time; Meanwhile, Boruto evolved so much that it feels a loss we couldn't witness it considering how nobody else seems have been able to follow the pace... Really two opposite issues

"The man’s name was Uchiha Sasuke. He was a shinobi whose muscles were like a steel wire that had been forged out of the best steel, and then tempered overall. That said, it wasn’t pointless sinew. His muscles were practical in the same way a leopard or lion’s would be, with some faint softness of fat remaining."

My problem with Eida’s charm versus Team 7.
Sarada literally directly points out the crush Mitsuki has on Boruto & how they’re both fixated on him in one of the chapters so I call bull shit on this whole loving Boruto is the reason Sarada & Sumire are immune (to Eida’s shinjutsu) theory, it just sounds too simplistic and like retconning Mitsuki’s feelings (which I guess it could be given it’s Kishimoto/Ikemoto and the manga industry & how they’re always downplaying Mitsuki on the writing team 😤). Tired of hearing that the reason is shipping; that’s silly. Sumire has a direct Ōtsutsuki connection via Nue and her chakra/jutsu so that absolutely makes sense for her. I’m waiting for a more logical explanation that doesn’t throw Mitsuki’s character once again under the bus as to why he’s affected and Sarada isn’t. I just don’t think amatonormativity is the answer, but then again we have the Boruto series; so, maybe that sadly is the only reason rather than something cool that we don’t know about yet. Also I guess Mitsuki isn’t Ōtsutsuki enough? I’m gonna need these writers to make it make sense some day honestly. 👀
