Loss, shame, guilt and regret are a WONDERFUL story ingredient just so long as there’s a sliver of hope of redemption.

I really liked this Boruto volume for how it slipped us on a trajectory to greatness.

Yeah, yeah, it felt like Sasuke and Naruto did most of the work, and it’s true, but sometimes the underpowered weakling is just what we need to turn the tables.

I can’t wait to see where this goes from here.

Still a bit fast but has hooked my attention fully

[Liz (Quirky Cat) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Three and a half stars.

Boruto continues to surprise me and confuse any expectations I have based off of Naruto. I have to keep reminding myself that it’s a different author (not that it is a bad thing). I’m still torn on how I feel about a lot of the character designs. On the one hand, I love that you can tell who is whose kid, but on the other I feel like kids wouldn’t dress so similarly to their parents, given half a choice. Though admittedly I don’t love how the original character designs look either (they remind me too much of the filler characters in the Naruto TV series).



The tension between Naruto and Boruto is still borderline painful to watch. I think it’s especially difficult for the fans that have read/watched Naruto (which I imagine is most of Boruto’s audience) because we know just how good and kind Naruto can be, and we just want to be able to get Boruto to see that too. I’ll admit I still find the idea of Naruto being an absent father pretty jarring – I just have trouble believing that he’d pass up that opportunity. Maybe that’s just my bias showing.
Boruto is appearing to be pretty conflicted about things himself. On the one hand he’s obviously pretty excited to have passed the first two rounds of Chunin exams. On top of that, his father even said he was doing well. On the other…he knows he’s cheating, and that everyone would be pretty upset with him if he got found out. I want to feel bad for Boruto being in this situation, he’s just a kid after all…but it’s a struggle.
Naturally you know what that means has to happen: Naruto figures out what Boruto is up to and not only disqualifies him, but removes his headband. I’m not sure if this is standard procedure for getting caught cheating; though it did happen in front of most of the villages, so maybe it is. I wasn’t allowed much time to feel bad for Naruto or Boruto though, because things start happening pretty rapidly from there.
I should have seen this one coming: Naturally because it’s the second match in the Chunin exam, something big and bad had to happen (pretty sure it’s a tradition at this point). It was nice seeing Kurama again, though I would have loved to see more of him (I know, I’m so greedy). Apparently Hinata attempted to protect Naruto after he went down, I would have liked to see that as well (though I don’t think anything will compare to the time she stood up to Pain to save Naruto. My heart still hurts about that one).
I don’t want to give away the conclusion; but I will say that Boruto becoming a Nukenin is finally explained. I’m not sure I like the reasoning – it seems almost shallow? I think they were trying to replicate Itachi, but without the loss or time spent building it up. Which I think were the two main reasons why Itachi worked, but that’s just my two cents. I’m holding out hope that this reasoning will become more interesting with time. We’ll see!

Really great continuation from the first volume. I do remember liking the bond between Naruto and Boruto when I read this the first time now, but I still don’t remember the actual plot elements lol. Really like the Ohtsutsuki characters too, they seem really interesting.

I like where the story is headed and the art is good too! It’s different and still heartwarming as Naruto. Although I love Naruto I just can’t seem to like Boruto, he is such a brat.

Ps wtf! The mangaka made Hinata so different from the Naruto series, does he have a short hair girl complex ? Her clothing too ugh Hinata is beautiful and deserves to be portrait as such!

“Era lo que uno llamaría “El típico perdedor”. Pero aprovechó sus fortalezas para conquistar sus puntos debiles… y se convirtió en hokage.”

A esto me refería, despertó muchos recuerdos este tomo en mi.

Me gustó el cómo están manejando la situación y el cómo Boruto está entrando en razón, comienza a ver cosas que quizá inhibía por su mismo orgullo o simple coraje por no tener un padre que esté a su lado. El ver y reconocer la fuerza de su padre, cómo está dispuesto a sacrificar todo por su pueblo, un verdadero hokage.

Aunque la trama sigue siendo muy acelerada, ya es más digerible y un tanto adictiva también. Y mentiría si no dijera que estuve a punto de llorar gracias a la nostalgia de los recuerdos.

Pd. Ya no odio tanto a Sasuke😂

Its a continuation of Boruto as he goes for the chunnin exams but is caught when Naruto sees he is using that ninja tool and he gets hot headed and when Kinshiki and Momoshiki Oototsuki attack Naruto has to go to his Kurama form and for the first time Boruto sees how awesome his dad is and when he is taken, its one of the greatest moments when Boruto self realizes and has to grow up and see how awesome his sad was and go for rescuing his dad with the other kages. Its a great character realization moment and just shows Boruto while hot headed is finally growing up as he should have. The next volume promises to be even more awesome with them vs Kinshiki!

[Elias Alexander · Rating 5 out of 5]

Poor naruto, he was so proud of boruto and then he finds out that boruto was cheating. I love how sasuke was protecting Sarada.
And the battle at the end was so amazing. You can really see how amazing sasuke and naruto are together as a team. And poor hinata. She really tried to protect naruto and boruto. She really do love them so much. And it's also typical for hinata to always jump in front of enemy to save naruto. They really are amazing together.
And of course the manga ends with a cliffhanger.

[Chris Lemmerman · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed the first volume, but this one was even better. The relationship between Naruto and Boruto takes centre stage as the Chunin Exam continues, only to go awry (stop holding these in Konoha, seriously) when Kaguya's clan attack. I really thought some of this stuff would unfold over numerous volumes, so the fast pace is a refreshing change.

[Rolando Marono · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sigo leyendo Boruto y los últimos tomos de Naruto al mismo tiempo. Lamentablemente empecé a leer Naruto muy tarde y no pude evitar spoilearme el final, y panini no quiso respetar a sus lectores de Naruto y empezó a traer la continuación antes de terminar la serie original.
El primer tomo me asombró por la profundidad narrativa y cómo nos muestra la relación de Naruto y su hijo. También obviamente da gusto ver a los personajes con los que te encariñaste en la serie principal.
El segundo tomo, creo que va muy rápido. Me hubiera gustado ver más capítulos con las batallas individuales del examen chunin. Recuerdo que en la serie original, tuvimos varias batallas muy épicas. Aquí no se han molestado en presentar o desarrollar más personajes más allá de Boruto. Es un poco triste eso porque precisamente en la serie original habíamos visto un poco de Sasuke, Sakura, Kiba, Shikamaru, Gaara, etc. Precisamente cuando llega el examen chunin es muy bienvenido ver las diferentes peleas de personajes que conocemos. Aquí sólo han aparecido algunos personajes y nada más, no hemos visto más allá de ellos y eso también se debe a que el examen chunin comenzó directamente en el primer tomo y en la serie original es hasta el tomo cinco o seis, no recuerdo muy bien. Quizá hubiera valido la pena esperar un poco.
De ahí la historia da giro con Naruto y vemos evolucionar un poco la relación entre los dos, eso me gustó pero no le encontré mucha relación a los sucesos. Boruto hace trampa, lo descalifican y le quitan el título de Shinobi, y de repente Sasuke dice que es un gran ninja y que superará a Naruto y se lo lleva con un equipo conformado por los Kages de las demás aldeas, para salvar a Naruto. No entiendo cómo es que suponen que será a la altura, un ninja que ni siquiera es chunin, con un equipo de kages peleando contra un Dios tipo Kaguya.
Creo que se les fue un poco de las manos en el segundo tomo.
De todos modos hubo detalles que me hicieron disfrutar el tomo y me mantuvo entretenido.

[Lucia Santiago Barreiro · Rating 5 out of 5]

¿Qué puedo decir de este segundo tomo...? Qué ha estado genial. Por fin, ha aparecido un buen combate, pero aun queda mucho para saber si derrotarán al enemigo.

Los combates, no han estado tan mal. No me puedo creer que Boruto, recurriese a esa artimaña para ganar en los combates.

Me pareció buena idea, que Sasuke decidiese enseñar a Boruto. Creo que él, puede sacarle mucho potencial al hijo del Séptimo.

Entiendo que el enemigo, sea familia de la "Diosa Conejo", pero por Dios, ya han tenido bastante con ella, en el pasado...

Espero que Killer Be, esté bien, después de lo que le hicieron...

I think that boruto has shown a lot of his ignorance in this volume, but also showed his grit and potential to become a ninja. I think that what I got from this is that, ignorant people show more potential than good people, since they have a lot of ways to improve, and I think that this is the advantage that boruto has. He will show us his improvement throughout the volumes and chapters. I hope to see more fights though, because it seems a bit boring. I really hate people who are like boruto, a bit spoiled and very ignorant, but I'm excited to see him change. I also hope to see more of Sarada and Mitsuki.

[Beckiezra · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sorry to be left with a bit of a cliffhanger (though I know what happens from the movie and anime), I’ll have to grab the next two volumes from the library. Nothing new since it was covered better and in more detail in animation, but it’s action packed and things are building to some excitement.

[R. L. Peterson · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can’t believe I’m giving this book a 5 star 🤣 I NEVER thought I would give Boruto a positive rating but here we are! This book was actually really good and I’m really liking Sasuke in this series. My hopes aren’t high for this series but I’m glad it’s starting strong.

[Daniel Mora · Rating 4 out of 5]

the book "Boruto Naruto Next Generations vol. 2" is about when Boruto and his squad complete the second part of the chunin exams. my honest opinion about this book is a 8/10. The reason it's not a 10/10 is because there are some flaws in my opinion. One of the flaws is that the book only introduces konohagakures students, but they need to introduce yodo, shinki, and araya. A good quote in this book is when Naruto says to boruto" you're... not worthy of being a ninja" when he caught him cheating. the climax is when momoshiki and kinshiki come to get the nine tails. this was a good book in my opinion and about 195 pages. i recommend this book to anyone who loves the series naruto and has either watched all of it and/or read it.

[Nicolas · Rating 4 out of 5]

Belle amélioration du dessin par rapport au tome 1, quelques cases moches si on veut chipoter mais en vrai tout est propre.

L'histoire avance très vite (peut être trop ?), on passe de la fin de l'examin Chuunin du tome précédent à un kidnapping à une rescousse à oups fin du tome. Les méchants Otsutsuki (c'est pas un spoil c'est sur la couv) ont des côtés qui ressemblent à Boruto qui décide de changer de vie et de finalement suivre les traces de son père.

Quelques moments sont émouvants, c'est un bon tome.

[Gioggi Pro · Rating 5 out of 5]

Non ho veramente molto da dire pk la mia opinione l'ho già data nel primo volume ( quindi se interessati a uno che lo ha già letto andate a vedere la mia recensione) ma vi consiglio se magari non vi attira molto di continuare a leggerlo ( è bello anche per persone che hanno appena iniziato ad approcciarsi alla modalità Manga)
potreste trarne una grande e Lunga collana di manga.
Buona lettura

In this book the main character Uzumaki Boruto gets trough round two of his Chunin Exam and in the Chunin Exam ninja tools are prohibited and Boruto used them during round 1,But his father Uzumaki Naruto does not know that his son Uzumaki Boruto is using prohibited ninja tools,while the exam is happening darker forces are advancing towards to capture chakra (which is a power source that they all have to generate they're powers or Jutsus. fruit which means They'll have to kidnap Uzumaki Naruto.I also really like this book I personally think its great I will rate it 5 starts since i really love this book and the drawing design.

I like this and I would probably recommend it to my brother my cousins and my friends at school since most of us like the series and the original series which features Uzumaki Naruto and I think they'll really like to read this book since its to they're liking and expectations.

[Molli B. · Rating 4 out of 5]

I’m warming up to these guys! I’m loving Sasuke. Still figuring out who Naruto is. Boruto is growing on me.

I think one of the big challenge of “next generation“ stories is that you have to somehow make the new kids awesome without making the original characters not awesome as adults. You can’t tarnish your originals without making people mad*. And particularly in a series like this that heavily relied on kids saving the day**, I think the authors have to figure out how to balance having awesome parents and awesome kids at the same time. It might actually be in the first chapter of the next volume (they run together when you can read chapter after chapter online!), but I have some confidence they’re going to be able to do this.

So, onward we go!

*They’re pushing it with Sakura!
**Okay, there were good adults too, like Kakashi and Guy and the Hokage “ghosts,” but I don’t think we read the books (or watched the anime) for the adults!

[Sierra J · Rating 5 out of 5]

What an exciting volume in the Boruto manga series! I think this Naruto story ark might even be slightly better than the original Naruto & Naruto Shippuden (although we are still pretty early in the series to truly tell). I love the fact that we get a glimpse in everyday life around the Leaf Village and the ninja academy, an aspect that we didn't really get to experience with the previous Naruto series - since they spent more time going on missions rather than staying in the village. You would think that village life would be boring, but as this volume shows, life around the Leaf Village is anything but.

4/5 Stars (%78/100)

I keep seeing comparisons between Boruto and Naruto (anime) about how Boruto is so peaceful and very slow-paced. In truth, Boruto's manga is super fast-paced. I mean in this volume planet-destroying aliens show up. I also get that this is supposed to be a continuation of Naruto. During the Chunin Exams, mysterious beings called Momoshiki and Kinshiki appear and threaten the village and the entire world. I really liked this volume in general.

Great

First manga I've read in a while we'll in such a quick time under my normal time might time my self xperia xa1 is easier than it was on my previous xperia phones the kindle I have is heavy so quick reading is difficult but great for dc comics and more comic style also adds extra fun on shonen jump titles that impact the is better on the big screen

[Shaun · Rating 4 out of 5]

The story so far has followed the Boruto film. I am really enjoying it so far. Boruto finally figures out what it means to be a ninja and that his father is more than a person behind a desk. I was really excited to se the other Kage and Sasuke work together with Boruto to rescue Naruto. I guess it’s just the fan in me. A solid addition to the Boruto story.

[J.J Flores · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Chunin exam started and Naruto finds out that Boruto has been using the ninja tool, as this happens, Kaguya's clan attack the village and they kidnap Naruto.

Sasuke, Boruto and the Gokage will go rescue him.

We finally get to see Kurama in action once again.
