An error by the brash Hokage and Shikamaru has cost Naruto his ideal field partner in the newest episode of the Boruto manga. Viz Media’s English translation of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, “Control,” contains spoilers for Chapter 64, “Control,” by Masashi Kishimoto and the rest of the “Boruto” team.
For many of the characters in the Boruto series, the most pressing issue is that women have been marginalised in their roles. However, Sakura and Ino, for example, were largely ignored save from a few Hail Marys. Sasuke, the Hokage, and other men are now getting the bulk of the leadership responsibilities, leaving the women as housewives. While the manga continues to ignore women, Naruto loses out on the ideal partner he could have in the field.
In the Konoha forest, Naruto notices Boruto and Kawaki. Although Naruto’s sensory team was unable to detect Kawaki’s chakra, he now knows his kid is in the vicinity and has begun monitoring him. He activates Sage Mode and asks Ino and Shikamaru’s unit to lock on as well.
Hinata wants to join the search, but Naruto refuses. To her dismay, Naruto explains to her why she can’t go and why she’s not allowed. The Akatsuki and many other tsutsuki warriors have made Hinata’s life a living hell, but she’s fought them all before. While fighting Code in the Naruto films, Hinata proved to be a skilled fighter and a representative of the Hyga clan.
With her Byakugan, which the Tsuki clan has, she may have been the ultimate weapon against Code since no one can learn his teleportation abilities. However, Hinata possesses a third eye in this regard, and as a result, this is a colossal waste of talent. While her father, Hiashi, is no longer the military genius he once was, her sister, Hanabi, is a minor figure in the series as she assists in training future students.
Because of her emotional engagement, Naruto and the kid’s dread would have been unleashed, but only if her fury had been directed at the appropriate people. Being interrupted by Shikamaru’s comments about loyalty and her suggestion that she should stay at home makes me feel even more suffocated.
However, in this circumstance, a rare exception can be made because she is needed to safeguard Himawari (Naruto’s daughter). Even though she compliments Naruto so well on the field, they need to trust and appreciate her. In hindsight, it’s regrettable that Hinata isn’t able to play a larger role in protecting the Hidden Leaf because she’s considered a B-lister at best and must instead remain on the sidelines.
To illustrate how they’ve both matured and how they could work together to save the ones that genuinely mean the most, but it’s ultimately regressive since Naruto doesn’t see a route to success with her at his side.
