As we reach the climax of this arc, we witness the characters gearing up for the final showdown with the Shins, while Sarada delves deeper into uncovering the truth about her origins.

Boruto Episode 16-17: A Reaper's Review
Просмотров 416Год назад
After Denki and Iwabe's fluff piece about possibly being held back a year, we can get into the meat and potatoes of the episode as Sarada struggles to fulfil a promise to her mom as well as a recovering girl in the hospital. Now Sasuke gets all the smoke for being an absentee father and this is completely warranted in our opinion, but no one really points out that Sakura might not be a nominee ...

      I agree she was taken over by her emotions there . She let her emotions get her the best . And on top of that when they were 12 naruto promised her that he would bring sasuke back , and he didn't and all were injured critically and then sakura felt bad , and they all trained under respective sannins. And as naruto kept trying to get sasuke back in shippuden he was constantly getting hurt in that process related to sasuke , she felt heartbroken by thinking naruto is being hurt because of the promise he made her , so all these combined their other friends like sai , shikamaru gaara all people now tell sakura that she shouldn't be this selfish indirectly and that how as all nations are trying to kill sasuke naruto would get hurt even more to try to save sasuke . So all these combined she did what she did . We should show some compassion I guess , but due to that they got to meet sasuke near that bridge .

  • @mr.protagonist5639
    @mr.protagonist5639 Месяц назад

    So me my problem is everything after sasori. Her finally getting a win is a nice payoff to part 1 and a START to an actual story for her in part 2 but they don't do much with her afterwards and she ultimately ends up in the exact same position she was in literally everytime sasuke and naruto almost kill eachother, unable to even get involved. I can see someone saying she's overhated but the pivot to saying she's a good character is just wrong.

    • @dreaper7282
      @dreaper7282 Месяц назад

      Very good point Mr. Protagonist! Since she was completely powerless to stop them before and all she could do was cry to no avail it would have been nice to see her take a bigger role in there conflict since for all practical purposes it did involve the 3 of them. Even if she couldn't stop them physically maybe she could have given a heartfelt speech about how much she cared about them or something. And maybe instead of the two essentially having a fight to the death they made it into a winner takes all duel.

  • @aprilbennett4161
    @aprilbennett4161 Месяц назад

    She was annoying, but I had hope for her in part 1. Then, Shippuden came along and I was elated to see her growth, and tickled pink when she was awesome during the Rescue Gaara arc. I was so frustrated when her progress went BACKWARDS during the Tenchi Bridge incident, and I hadn't cared for her since. Her outright trying to romantically manipulate Naruto later on was the point of no return.

    • @dreaper7282
      @dreaper7282 Месяц назад

      Yeah this is one of the most frustrating thing about this character. The great thing about time skips is it allows characters to make exponential leaps in progression and if were just looking at the kazekage retrieval arc that is exactly what happened with Sakura. Then it was like never mind I actually didn't grow that much. It was like watching a completely different character from arc to arc and it did not make too much sense on why her character should behave that way.

  • @dannietea
    @dannietea Месяц назад

    I personally really love Sakura because she is such a flawed character. She has a hell of a lot more depth than most of the YA protagonists I was reading back when Twilight and all the dystopian books were popular. Most of them were blank slates to project your own personality on. My biggest issue is that she ended up with Sasuke. By the end of the series, she should’ve had more self-respect than that, especially given how much she’s grown since she was the annoying 12 year old with a massive crush on a boy.

    • @dreaper7282
      @dreaper7282 Месяц назад

      Thanks for watching and commenting Dannietea! Reaper think's Sakura had a lot of potential but not too much depth. The reason being most of her traits and "characterization" were never really explored essentially making them just bullet points. Reaper sees Sakura as less of a flawed character and more of a character with flaws. The former being characters with built in obstacles and hang ups they need to contended with and potentially overcome as the story progresses ( See our character analysis on Matt Ishuda for a good example #shameless plug) And the later being characters that have things wrong with them for indeterminant purpose. And yes one of the biggest reason for this is her "relationship" with Sasuke. It would have been fine if she struggled with it, explored it in some way, or even walked away from it. Then maybe somewhere down the line Sasuke goes chasing after her, repented and earned her love and trust back. But No. Her lack of a journey indicates that she's a door mat. She's feels the same way about Sasuke whether there making fun memories on missions, or when he's threatening to destroy her home. We would have liked to explore this topic further in the analysis but it would encroach on a lot of speculative points and were not yet sure if we can hold an audience for an hour +

    Love your A I voice mocking Sakura simps. To be clear I DO enjoy well written characters, male or female. I really wanted more screen time for characters like Anko Miterashi and Yugao or Guren. I do acknowledge that Sakura has a few good things but sadly the bad outweighs the good. And power alone doesn’t make a character good. Marvel took Carol Danvers, a female Avenger with alcohol problem and suddenly gifted her with Superman level power while having Carol be so arrogant. It’s not the strength or the power that determine how well a character is loved , its the heart. That is why Rock Lee and even Tenten are much more loved than Sakura.

    • @dreaper7282
      @dreaper7282 Месяц назад

      Wow Guren! You watched all the filler then lol! She's actually one of my favorite non canon characters in the series. Good points and agreed! Making characters compelling and consistent goes a lot farther than making them strong. One of the reason Reaper thinks Boruto is trash.

    wow this is an excellent analysis! I love Digimon and the psychological elements of the writing are really strong, so seeing you give such an insightful analysis is amazing. I especially liked your point about about Matt's upbringing meaning he is subconsciously prepared to lose people in his life and that's perhaps the root of his avoidant personality. This is a REALLY spot on observation, not just in this children's cartoon but also in real life. You've got a knack for this for real

    • @dreaper7282
      @dreaper7282 2 месяца назад

      Thanks for the vote of confidence Perry! Agreed Digimon has some very smart writing especially it's earlier seasons. The subtilty begs closer inspection which typically pays off in better understanding. It's great!

    Sora's mistake was not knowing that the time she was thinking about was when Tai was fully only self focused and lucked his way into accidentally passing her the ball. It helps the audience see Tai's actual thought process and how immature he actually is, and in what ways he needs to grow.

    • @dreaper7282

  • @HeartStar2024
    @HeartStar2024 3 месяца назад

    Thank you for the great video! I remember liking Tai a lot when I watched the series as a young teen, but slowly gravitated towards Matt as I got older. Don’t get me wrong, Tai is still a well written character, but Matt’s development is something I don’t personally see too often in fictional media. He’s the ‘rival’ yeah, but like you said he’s not the one who’s ‘clearly in the wrong’, which is something I really appreciate. Despite being the ‘cool guy’ he cares deeply for the group, though he makes the mistake of letting his emotions get the better of him. He reminds me that I shouldn’t let my emotions take me too far, which is a problem I currently have. He kind of reminds me of Cloud Strife from FF7 now that I think about it! What I always found to be interesting is that Tai has a complete family, while Matt has a somewhat broken one. Tai is supposed to represent the sun (which is about power and courage) and Matt is supposed to represent the moon (which is about care and is constantly changing-like Matt himself). If you say “Yes” or “Day” to Jijimon in Digimon World (PS1), you get Agumon. If you say “No” or “Night”, you get Gabumon. Agumon turns into Greymon in daylight and Gabumon turns into Garurumon at night. I always thought that was really cool and helps to show how Tai and Matt are supposed to ‘mirror’ each other. I was listening to this video while doing psychology homework, and it helped a lot! Thanks!

      @user-ud5xq7nr9e 3 месяца назад

      You are very welcome Heartstar! And good insight! These characters contain an artistic level of subtilty that is rare these day and looking at those details helps flesh them out even more. I didn't know about the game mechanic either so glad to learn something new! Good luck with your psychology class. Since Reaper subscribes to the Turtle School his advice is, work hard, study well, and eat and sleep plenty!

    Hey guys @jennilocke commented in our last analysis on Tai that some versions and translations of the series tend to paint the characters in a different light one the tends to more or less favor one side. And she is 100% correct! This is especially true for Matt and Tai. So apologies if you feel your favorite character was portrayed in a less favorable way. We try to follow the most consistent character traits in the analysis. Hope you enjoy!😁
