The Boruto manga has continued!
Thoughts about the new chapter... well, first of all:
Sarada's new design sucks. No, just no. The only good thing I see is the new location of his headband; it kinda... adds a personal touch, I guess?
It was interesting to hear that she's still a genin. There's no way they haven't had any chuunin exams in the past three years, and I find it hard to believe that our magnekyou sharingan carrying Uchiha wouldn't be strong enough to pass, so what happened? Is she not allowed to take the exam because of her "attitude", or does she refuse to take one without Boruto? The later one might be the case... hm, I wonder what they'll do with this scene in the anime, where Sarada is already a chuunin. Will she get demoted? Or will they change it to "you'll never be a jounin?"
Second:
I don't like the idea of Shikamaru as the hokage. I mean, it does make perfect sense, but... no, just no.
Kawaki... well, that is Kawaki. He doesn't look all that good, but he looks like himself, unlike Sarada.
Sumire hasn't changed much, but her new outfit is better than the old one.
Mitsuki... I would say that he looks bad and not at all like himself, but the later isn't completely true; he always looked kinda bad in the manga, so I'll hold my judgement on this one until we see the animated version.
As for Chou Chou, the outfit is great with all the butterflies, but just like with Mitsuki, I don't like her manga design. Hopefully, she'll look better in the anime.
As for these two, they... er... got new clothes? Kinda plain, though I suppose it's good that our Baby Pig finally ditched the overalls. He also lost the baby fat that was on his face in the manga. And I think he might've cut his hair:
I hope I'm wrong.
Himawari's design on the other hand caught me by surprise with it's perfection. I'm so glad they didn't put her in a tiny dress like Sarada or tiny shorts like Eida. Glad to see something different!
Also, good to see she hasn't lost her faith in Boruto... but I find it interesting that there is no headband. Is she not a shinobi?
As for Boruto, he looks like... well, Boruto. That's him alright, Blondie from episode one. His face still got some baby fat, but that's probably just due to the art style.

Seriously? She got Sai that easily, too? I thought he’d at least keep himself together a little better, even if he couldn’t reach Shikamaru’s level.
Chou Chou on the other hand was known to be a lost cause from the start; she’s the most simple character in the series. As for Inojin, I didn’t think he’d fall so hard otherwise, but since I saw this right before-
-I kinda counted him as one of those that are easily influenced by Eida.
And she got Mitsuki, too! Well, that answers my earlier question of if Eida’s powers work on artificially created humans or not...
...
...I’m kinda disappointed; it could’ve been fun if Mitsuki wasn’t affected.
Sarada and Shikadai safe so far? Did they really not see her as well as the others, or is this a sign of them not being as simple?
Speaking of simple, let’s not forget Simpleton Sensei. Can’t say I’m surprised.
And I’m adding this one too just because.
