Holy crapola, it’s just not letting me down. One fast scene after another and potential to take a breath, but in the end, it always leaves you breathless.

Great story time. I can’t believe where this is going. Finally, it feels like Boruto is living up to the Narutos. The tragedy is just beginning.

Got home from my interview for a hospital job and read this before work. Another great volume and we learn what the Ohtsutsuki plan is. I don’t understand why the series gets so much hate, obviously it’s going to be different from Naruto and they have to establish all the new characters. I’m really enjoying the series!

Si sta facendo sempre più avvincente questa trama all'inizio della storia non l'avrei mai detto.
E' è proprio vero non giudicare mai un libro dalla copertina.

Even though I know that Kurama's coming back after the spoilers, it still hurts knowing he did die in the volume 🤧

[Rebeckah Sypik · Rating 5 out of 5]

In this volume Isshiki and Koji's fight ends. Isshiki's Goal is now to place anther Karma on Kawaki in the next few days or he dies. In this Volume Boruto discoveries anther trait granted to him by Momoshiki's Karma, which prevents Isshiki from killing him. In the end of chapter 51 Naruto and Karma perform a new transformation.

Very Major Spoilers below:
(Particularly in chapter 51)



Chapter 48: In it the fight with kashin koji ends and evacuation of the village begins. Koji is able to activate toad sage mode like Jiraiya. Which drives Isshiki to use the ability possesd by his non-Byakugan eye. It allows him to pull items from a dimension where time does not pass to attack his target with. So it's like a reverse kamui. Koji is crushed by three pillers that Isshiki pulls from his personal dimension. This sceen very much parrels Jaraiya's fight with pain. Before Isshiki lands a deathblow he offers to convay a message from Koji to Amando, since amando used him to escape. Koji uses this opportunity to use a reverse summoning jutsu to escape.

Chapter 49: After Koji fleed,  Isshiki began his search in Konoha to find Kawaki and place anther Karma mark on him. Naruto confronts Isshiki within the village and Sasuke and Boruto form a plan to get him away from the village. Isshiki can't shrink living things, so boruto takes the form of Sasuke's sword to transport Isshiki by surprise to an unknown area.

Chapter 50: In this volume the fight between Isshiki, Sasuke, Naruto and Boruto continues, in the area outside the village Boruto transported Isshiki too. It had really good fight sceens between Isshiki, Sasuke and Naruto, but only alittle bit of plot at the end. Which occured  when Isshiki had a chance to kill Sasuke and did not take it, because Boruto lept on top of sasuke. Revealing Isshiki won't kill Boruto presumably because he is Momoshki's vessel.

51: The reason Isshiki won't kill Boruto is reveled and Naruto foreshadows a transformation is have never taken before.
The reason Isshiki will not kill Boruto is because the 10 tail will only turn into a divine tree if feed a member of the Otsutsuki clan. Otsutsuki perform this sacrifice to obtain chakra fruit and resurrect using the Karma seal. Naruto deiceds he must defeat Isshiki and all costs even if it kills him. Kurama said their is something they can do but it may kill Naruto. In the end of the chapter Naruto was shown morphing into a new transformation.

Fan Speculation/thoery: Koji's sage mode
Koji actully might have a better mastery of sage mode then Jiraiya. Since Koji only had the sage mode in and around his eyes which was an indicator of better mastery. This could be because Koji inhereted Jiraiya's level of mastey of toad sage mode at the time of his death and continued to train the sage mode ability till the point of mastery. This means Koji is stronger then Jiraiya.

Fan Speculation/thoery: Age
This raises anther question how old is Koji,  both Physiology and Chronology? Appearance wise Koji resembles Jiraiya at the time of second shinobi world war, based on the red marks under his eyes. Which means Koji is about physiology in his mid 20s. If Koji was born after Jiraiya's death his max age can only be 16 to 17. Since Naruto is 33 and Jiraiya died when he was about 16. This means Koji was probably born as an adult say about 18 years old. Koji appears about 25, so that means Koji could be as young Chronology as 7 years old. It seems Koji was grown by Amando so he could escape. Which if he was grown for this purpose the Chronology age of 7 makes sense.

Fan Speculation/thoery: Not killing Boruto
(Theory proved incorrect by chapter 51)
In the end of chapter 50, it was revealed that Isshiki would not kill Boruto, presumably because he is Momoshiki's vessel. This could mean Momoshiki and Isshiki are working togeather. This could mean also that Momoshiki will not kill Isshiki either. So if Boruto where to be possessed by Momoshiki even temporarly, he might team up with Isshiki and attack Sasuke and Naruto. Having Boruto with them might end up working against them. Perhaps thier is anther reason why Isshiki won't kill Boruto but it has not been reveled yet. (Was reveled in ch. 51)


Conclusion:
Really good action in this volume, left alot to speculate about too. I am glab Koji survived I look forward to seeing more of him. Also the revelation that Isshiki won't kill Boruto was very interesting. It would be interesting to see how isshiki and momoshiki would interact. I look forward to chapter 51.

5/5 Stars (%90/100)

Isshiki Otsutsuki is revived finally and the fight between him and Koji ends. I still don't know why Amado decided to use a clone to fight someone as powerful as Isshiki. The true purpose of Koji might have been weakening Isshiki not killing him. I'm thinking about it but maybe use a Reanimation of someone? The big battle starts as Naruto, Sasuke and Boruto face Isshiki. We also learn the true purpose of Karma and Isshiki.

Sidenote: A couple of days later, a new chapter will be released and it will be the last chapter in volume 14 but the volume itself will be released in a month I think. This is why I'm not talking about what happens in the next volume despite knowing it.

[Subham · Rating 4 out of 5]

This volume is getting more and more epic, Isshiki appears finally and he is able to defeat Koji easily and you just see the differences in their power and things are not going well but using frog techniques he is able to escape and then Isshiki now complete comes to Konoha to mark Kawaki using karma again and he is not stopping, destroying anything that stands in his path and then comes Naruto using Kurama-mode and he attacks him and takes down Isshiki but their battle is fierce until Boruto comes in and takes them away to some other dimension away from Konoha and their epic fights begin, and Sasuke, Boruto and Naruto fight and its a gorgeous battle and then we learn Isshiki's real intention that is to sacrifice Momoshiki-fied Boruto to ten tails to harvest the divine fruit and that revelation was shocking and just wow and when things are looking down, Isshiki is gonna win or so it seems like then Naruto goes to BARYON MODE! This arc is becoming just epic! wow and the art and the writing, revelations, fights and all is just crazy!!

Volume 13: Chapter 48-51

Arc 4: Kawaki


- Isshiki only have 2-3 days more to live. If he dies, he can't resurrect. He must find Kawaki to implant a Karma. Kashin Koji lost the fight and fled away by summoning his Steam Toad. Isshiki arrived at Konoha.

- Naruto faced Isshiki once again but he was got beaten. Sasuke arrived along with Boruto. Boruto used his Karma to transport Isshiki to other place. Naruto and Sasuke can fight all-out there.

- The battle going on intensely. Isshiki can summoned a thing he shrink from a dimension called Daikokuten where time doesn't flow. Boruto knows his potential value in the battle as he might be a key to winning the battle. Isshiki have a chance to kill Boruto and Sasuke but he froze up.

- In order to plant a divine tree, a living Ohtsutsuki need to be feed to the Juubi. So, Isshiki cannot kill Boruto as he need him for the plan.

- Kurama offers Naruto a trump card to defeat Isshiki. But, the cost is Naruto's life. Naruto is prepared to die since the day he become Hokage.

"I don't want to go." -10th Doctor from Doctor Who

This quote sums up my feelings about what is expected to be in the next volume. What is implied by Kurama and how everyone is questioning Naruto's look/chakra at the end of this, is why I am not a fan of next generation story lines. It seems when there is a sequel series, if the previous generation is going to be in it at all, seem to be a little worse for the wear or they will die. I am not fan of that, because in the previous series it ended on a good note. I will keep saying this until this series is done: I do not see how this series DOES NOT end in tragedy.

Verdict: While I realize that Naruto and Sasuke are prepare to make the ultimate sacrifice, I am not looking forward to the next volume.

[Tuna · Rating 5 out of 5]

Volume 13 is an incredible volume allowing Naruto and Sasuke to show their stuff in the same fashion they have always showed it in while facing their most difficult opponent yet. While the action and choreography isn't as tight as it was when Kishimoto was the lead artist, it is still done well enough that you can feel totally and completely immersed.

Isshiki is a really good antagonist with jutsu and abilities that push Naruto and Sasuke to their limit. It was fun to see how things progressed. It was additionally fun to have the others provide commentary and support to add to the drama and tension of the situation. It was great.

[Florence Mullot · Rating 3 out of 5]

J'ai toujours cette impression que la saga Boruto n'arrive pas vraiment à décoller. Tout est assez prévisible et les mangakas essayent de tirer sur les cordes sensibles ce qui accentue encore cette sensation de facilité. Je vais me répéter, mais c'est tout de même dommage, surtout avec un univers pareil. J'ai du mal à adhérer aux nouveaux méchants également dont les plans sont tout de même bien tiré par les cheveux. Ce sont des méchants, méchants, et clairement je pense que ce n'est pas ce que recherche les lecteurs. On passe tout de même un bon moment, mais il manque toujours l'étincelle qui fera la différence.

On ne va pas s'attarder sur le premier combat. Kashin Koji contre Isshiki Ôtsutsuki ou comment jouer sur la corde sensible en faisant réapparaître l'ancien maître de Naruto sans creuser le moins du monde cette "surprise". Jiraiya n'était pas n'importe qui quand même. Et là, on a l'impression d'un easter egg des plus banales. Il n'y a même pas le côté dramatique de Naruto face au clone de son maître. du coup, je me demande vraiment qu'elle était l'idée derrière tout cela. Pour un début de tome, cela laisse assez dubitatif.

La suite aurait pu semblait mieux, mais là encore, il y a une facilité dans l'exécution de l'intrigue qui me laisse assez de marbre. le grand méchant débarque à Konoha (je n'arrive pas à comprendre pourquoi le village ne s'est pas protégé depuis la première menace et pourquoi les autres villages n'entrent pas en jeu... bref). Bien entendu, Naruto décide d'allait le combattre quitte à y laisser la vie. C'est son rôle en tant qu'Hokage, entendons-nous bien. le hic, c'est qu'il n'est pas seul même si c'est lui le plus apte. Heureusement Sasuke le suit. Mais là encore, son frère d'arme ressemble à une pâle copie de son alter-ego adolescent. C'est assez plat, même si le combat est pour le coup plus original et mieux exécuté pour moi. En fait, ce qui me déplait c'est cette impression de : on a des anciens héros super puissants qu'on ne voulait pas mettre au rebus, mais on les rend plus faibles pour que la nouvelle génération prenne la relève... pour finir par mettre au rebus nos anciens héros.

Et là, je dis non. Jouer sur la nostalgie des lecteurs, ok, mais le faire en bafouant l'héritage de Naruto... Là, pour moi, ça ne va pas passer. Il y avait tellement d'autres façons de jouer ça... Je n'ai rien contre le fait que Boruto soit au centre de tout, le gars a tout de même son prénom sur le manga. Mais, c'est trop facile encore une fois. Il est bien entendu l'arme secrète du combat (enfin, secrète, la couverture nous révélait tout). D'accord, pourquoi pas. Il a un héritage incroyable, il se montre déjà très doué, mais il n'a eu aucunement le temps de murir contrairement à son père. D'ailleurs on l'utilise parce qu'il est l'hôte de Momoshiki et que ce dernier peut se rendre utile, un peu comme Kurama avec Naruto. On en arrive même à saper le héros du manga.

La fin se veut grandiloquente mais elle me fait surtout peur. Je sens venir à plein nez quelque chose de très déplaisant, et j'avoue que cela ne me donne pas forcément très envie de voir ce qu'il va se passer ensuite. Je savais que Boruto serait une lecture quitte ou double, mais j'espérais vraiment que ce soit du positif. Je vais tout de même garder l'esprit ouvert, d'autant plus qu'une suite est déjà en parution et donc que le public est toujours là pour suivre. C'est qu'il y a forcément un peu de bon, non ?

YOU CAN'T KILL MY EXPECTATIONS !!!

I truly hope that Naruto and Sasuke will find a way to get alive from this fight. Losing those 2 shinobis will be like losing the root of the manga. In Boruto we never see the previous hokages even though they are great shinobis (Kakashi, Tsunade) whom could lend their strengh to Sasuke and Naruto.
A medical ninja should always take a part in great battle such as this one according to Tsunade and Sakura.

WHERE THE HELL IS SAKURA ? She's the only one who can bandage the injuries and is a pillar of former team 7

[Suhail Mohammed · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a bit vague. How come Madara plant a divine tree without sacrificing otsutsuki to the ten tails? Or is it because he became the ten tails jinchuriki? So why can’t Isshiki simply became a jinchuriki and plant the divine tree? Or maybe Madara’s divine tree doesn’t contain the chakra fruit??? So many possibilities and they didn’t explain it.

Edited:they said it in the next volume.
!!!spoilers for the next volume!!!! “I should be able to use you as my sacrifice to the divine tree. It might be on the small side, but it should still yield a decent sized fruit “ Momoshiki said to Kawaki. So only to produce a good fruit one must sacrifice an Otsutsuki I think.

[Chris Lemmerman · Rating 3 out of 5]

Kashin Koji's attack on Isshiki ends poorly, leaving Kawaki's protection up to Naruto, Sasuke, and Boruto.

Mostly just fight scene stuff, but it's always fun to see Naruto and Sasuke unleashed at this level. The stuff with Amado drags mostly because the characters seem to repeat themselves for pages at a time instead of actually saying something new and getting to the point.

[In_Mart · Rating 3 out of 5]

On est toujours au cœur de l'action, avec quelques révélations, sans trop s'étendre : la technique finale qui est lancée dans les toutes dernières pages pourrait mettre fin à l'affrontement, mais les conséquences annoncées semblent vraiment trop importantes pour ce manga... quoique, Dragon Ball l'avait fait aussi à l'époque !

[Zinnia Rodriguez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fight!

Kashin Koji vs Isshiki. Kawaki freed from Karma. Isshiki vs Naruto. Sasuke, Naruto vs Isshiki. Boruto, Sasuke and Naruto vs Isshiki. Boruto prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice. Naruto prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice.

4/5 Turns out boruto is the food that the ten tails needs to plant itself in the earth. Didn’t see it coming! Aside from that it looks Naruto is PISSED and is about to go in. Excited to see what Naruto does, but am afraid to see if Naruto actually dies
