Boruto: Two Blue Vortex – Will it Mirror Naruto's Success or Fail?

Boruto: Following in Naruto's Footsteps – Is This a Good Thing or a Big Mistake?

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex – A Familiar Path, But Is It the Right One?

Boruto has always borrowed heavily from the original Naruto series; this was entirely expected and acceptable from most viewers – this really highlights its origin point as that sequel; creating similarities for continuity and other nostalgic appeals. However, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex might just be taking this a bit too far, creating several extremely familiar plot moments, specifically mirroring those later sections in Naruto's ending. While some of these parallels could work nicely and have a creative, engaging plot; there are however those potential dangers and some really huge missteps; emphasizing certain areas with potentially significant risks, that need serious considerations when assessing whether this parallel was a smart idea at all!

A recent sneak peek released on the official Naruto/Boruto website gave us some enormous hints! We now see Boruto and Kawaki on what appears to be Naruto's Hokage statue; that opening alone is an already extremely intense and suggestive setup.

This upcoming chapter really focuses on their new confrontation. Boruto wants Kawaki to get stronger, suggesting that a training montage could be something viewers will encounter later, providing reasons for the shift in dynamics that these two are displaying, adding a certain anticipation which might've otherwise felt quite out of place and extremely lacking; without those obvious clues hinting at the future developments. It's also noteworthy just how much the future foreshadowing is emphasized here; highlighting its impact on their changed circumstances that create anticipation among fans regarding those very key themes: Will it remain true? Or are we going to experience additional, unexpected reveals?

Boruto and Kawaki: A Brotherly Team-Up – Mirroring Naruto and Sasuke?

The next chapter’s key storyline element highlights the potential reconciliation between Boruto and Kawaki; this involves their agreement to fight this extremely powerful foe and hints towards various themes found throughout Naruto – but unlike the similarities previously shown; we're given certain expectations of similarity here which emphasizes an already anticipated future confrontation between the brothers involved.

That’s similar to the Fourth Great Ninja War; the reconciliation of Naruto and Sasuke after facing down their major foes. And many will remember how deeply impactful that reunion was. Here, Boruto reveals his ability to see into the future— and there's possibly further details related to Kashin Koji's Shinjutsu Prescience, suggesting other mysteries surrounding the key events from earlier episodes. The Shinju invasion storyline plays a key role, suggesting that Kawaki’s future choices also might come up during this entire chapter; highlighting this key point as pivotal for their changed attitudes which sets up the potential fight to the death. Those scenes already showcase Kawaki’s intense desire to protect Naruto; and what this implies: Even his willingness to murder Boruto if it meant eliminating those threats which he deeply feared— the Ten-Tails consuming Boruto, leading to global destruction—and this alone displays that Kawaki might help, potentially against his will!

A Dangerous Parallel: Why Boruto Shouldn’t Copy Naruto’s Ending!

This whole setup mirrors the Fourth Great Ninja War; it feels very close in terms of structure, pacing and some really predictable elements, demonstrating this particular danger: relying too heavily on a prior storyline already well known by this fanbase; a mistake. And these comparisons highlight serious flaws with this creative decision.

Firstly, Kawaki's fear of Momoshiki runs deep– which would always make a serious confrontation between Boruto and Kawaki inevitable— a point already suggested throughout this storyline and it adds another thematic conflict to highlight the very difficult, nuanced, emotional choices involved; this alone is already suggestive towards what viewers might experience.

That deep conflict is a key problem— they might never reconcile like Naruto and Sasuke! It means Boruto’s repetition wouldn't offer a satisfyingly fresh story. And any attempted reconciliation would feel unearned and severely underwhelming, reducing those anticipated plot developments already created for the audiences.

Boruto’s Training Plan for Kawaki: A Double-Edged Sword!

This upcoming sneak peek is significant, showcasing that there is possibly additional information about events not revealed earlier, including additional information about Boruto's involvement, adding this particular element to a storyline not explicitly discussed before, showcasing why some training sessions with Kawaki would be entirely relevant: Kawaki's weakness creates additional challenges, particularly in his inability to stop the Shinju invasion, further emphasizing that Boruto needs Kawaki's power— despite those already created problems— creating that huge anticipated team-up moment!

Boruto’s plan for Kawaki? Teach Kawaki those amazing skills from his future (that Koji previously used). That’s smart short-term. But it ultimately leaves us with that already very easily predictable issue: The exact thing we were hoping to avoid is suggested through these very points.

It might mean Boruto is already seeing their eventual fight— or considers that it's necessary. Both options, already suggestive possibilities, really demonstrate how dangerous and tricky the situation actually is.

The recent preview for Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is suggestive towards its own upcoming future, adding immense anticipation for future events. While using a similar framework might work; emphasizing the key conflict between Boruto and Kawaki as being a far greater threat, compared to some other previous plotpoints throughout Boruto already emphasized this danger. Those already heavily suggested parallels to Naruto – those familiar scenes – really risk completely undercutting its own originality.

But Two Blue Vortex has surprised everyone, those unexpected twists continue to emerge and deliver some completely new insights regarding these characters! Perhaps a divergence remains possible—creating a distinct, unique storyline. That will definitely depend upon just how much that particular creative vision, to continue this legacy; without over-relying on previously created structures from Naruto.
