What Episodes Can I Skip In Boruto
So, you're watching Boruto, huh? Welcome to the club! But let's be honest, sometimes you just want to get to the good stuff.
We've all been there. Long arcs that feel… long. Filler that feels… filler-y. The question is: what can you safely skip?
Skippable Shenanigans: A Highly Subjective Guide
Let's dive into some episodes you might consider giving a pass. Disclaimer: this is just my opinion, okay? Don't @ me.
Must Read
Academy Days (Episodes 1-15): Kawaki Where Art Thou?
Okay, hear me out. We get it. Boruto went to the academy. But did we really need 15 episodes of it?
Unless you're a huge fan of schoolyard antics, you can probably skim these. Just a quick peek at the important character introductions should suffice.
The Ghost Incident Arc (Episodes 16-24): Mildly Spooky, Mostly Forgettable
This one introduces some important concepts, sure. But honestly, it drags a bit. Are you captivated by the ghostly disturbances?
Or are you itching for some ninja action? If it's the latter, fast forward, my friend.
Cho-Cho's Butterfly Mode Quest (Episodes 67-69 & 93-95): A Snack Break Arc
Look, I love Cho-Cho. She's hilarious. But even I can admit these episodes are… fluffy. Very, very fluffy.
Two whole arcs dedicated to her butterfly mode and finding love? Unless you're a die-hard Cho-Cho fan, these are skippable. Grab a snack instead!
The Mitsuki Disappearance Arc (Episodes 71-92): Unpopular Opinion Incoming
Okay, this one might be controversial. Many consider this arc vital. But 22 episodes of Mitsuki soul-searching?
It just felt a bit… drawn out. Did it really need to be that long? Maybe a condensed version would have been better. Feel free to disagree!
Between the Big Arcs: The Slice-of-Life Episodes
Boruto has a lot of slice-of-life episodes. Ramen eating contests, celebrity bodyguards, and… vase collecting?
These can be cute and fun. But they don't always move the main plot forward. Use your judgment here.
The "Absolutely Do Not Skip" List
Now, before you go skipping willy-nilly, here are a few arcs you should definitely watch:
- The Momoshiki Arc (Starts around episode 53): This is where things get real.
- The Kara Actuation Arc (Post episode 157): The stakes are high, and the plot thickens.
- Anything involving Kawaki. Seriously, that guy is important.
Final Thoughts: Your Boruto Journey, Your Rules
Ultimately, what you skip in Boruto is up to you. Don't let anyone tell you how to watch your anime. Except maybe me, just a little bit.
If you're enjoying an episode, watch it! If you're bored, skip it! It's all about finding what you love and maximizing your ninja time.
Happy watching, and may your Boruto experience be filled with more Rasengan and less… vase collecting!
